THE SKY OF THE CITY

The wealthy and beautiful Kariva has some willful. She falls in love with the handsome and talented Pompeo, who is an excellent music producer and photographer. The beautiful Talitha is a nurse. One day in June 2019, she ran into Pompeo on Flower Street in San Francisco and fell in love with him at first sight. Brinken is a good friend of Pompeo, and he also Talitha's neighbor when she was a child, and met again many years later, he was fascinated by her beauty. Talitha's friend Danne fell in love with Brinken at first sight. In February 2020, after the outbreak of the century plague, the United States encountered aggression. The epidemic was very terrible, and New York was even more serious. These young people all went to New York to work as volunteers:  Kalihua cleaned in the hospital, Talitha went to the tent hospital to treat patients, and Blincol worked as a truck driver to transport necessary supplies for life and medical care. Uncle Shanni’s restaurant is free of charge. Free lunches were provided to two hospitals, and Danne helped in the restaurant. And Pompeo took real-life photography works of New Yorkers fighting the epidemic and made a website to display these works. He also composed the song "City Sky" to record this historical moment. This song was produced by an online collection of singing digital recordings, and Talitha is one of the singers. Unfortunately, Pompeo, Kalihua, and Talitha contracted the plague after they were cured. After Pompeo was cured, he donated plasma to cure Kariva, and Kalihua's plasma cured Talitha. Three months later, these young people returned to their hometown of San Francisco and met again in San Francisco Flower Street...

This story runs through the scene described in the lyrics of the theme song "Empty of the City": the epidemic erodes the reality of the United States, the American people help each other and the firm belief in overcoming difficulties, the sincere love grow in young people's hearts...

 

《城市的天空》歌曲创作于去年2月。时籍纽约疫情至极，纽约帝国大厦顶层，以红白灯光在晚上亮起，向全美医护人员致敬！歌曲创作灵感由此而来……电影剧本中、英文版《城市的天空》酝酿一年后，写于今年4-5月……）

 

城市的天空霓虹不再闪亮，

城市的街道到处一片空荡。

我看着窗外寒风冷雨在呼啸，

想着你在帐篷医院，

写下我们心中温暖传递的故事，

I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU!

 

城市的天空军乐昂扬在回荡，

城市的港湾星条旗在迎风飘扬。

我站在军舰固若磐石甲板上，

你在帐篷医院中穿梭，

唱起我们心中爱在传递的情歌。

I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU!

 

请你抬头看看这个晚上的天空，

你会看到多灿烂红白闪烁的星星，

是我们永恒凝视不变的眼睛，

是我们永远珍藏坚定的信念！

I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU! I LOVE YOU!

 

The Sky of the City

 

First verse: Male voice

Watching the city’s sky, the neon is no longer shining,

The streets of the city are empty everywhere.

I watched the cold wind and rain roaring outside the window,

Thinking of you busy at tent hospital of Central Park,

Write down a story of the warmth spread in our hearts.

I love you! I love you!

 

The military music in the sky of the city reverberates,

US flag of the city’s harbor is fluttered in the wind,

I standing on the rock-solid deck of the warship,

Thinking of you work selflessly in Central Park,

Sing the love song that the love in our hearts is connected.

I love you! I love you!

 

You just have to look up to see the sky this evening,

You will see how brilliant red and white twinkle stars.

That is eyes that we adore each other and stare at forever,

That is a firm belief that will always, always sparkle.

I love you! I love you! I love you!
