Music commentary
The music shows the vitality and kinetic energy of young people, advertises the value of human survival and the meaning of life, and evokes love for nature and cherish the living environment. This is the motivation for writing this song. Just like the lyrics at the beginning of the song: Wings of Youth Fly your wings! "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" We are wings of youth Flying! Flying! Throughout the long river of history. Freedom, equality, and fraternity are the basic rights that mankind has evolved from a long time, starting from Europe, after many people have endured hardships, sacrificed their struggles, and strived for them. When the author traveled to France, he saw government agencies and schools across the country, all above the outside of the gate, with these three signs prominently hung. Deeply moved. The music is presented in tonality, starting from C major, and after many transpositions and changes in tempo, with the meaning of the lyrics, the climax occurs. There are several times in the song with applause to arouse another atmosphere. At the end of the song, return to the beginning of the harmony peak in C major and high-five.
