This is something I am very proud of. No, I am not part of the band but I grew up listening to their music. I might not be one who follows their news very closely, I can't memorize all their song lyrics and neither do I know all about them. But there is a special place these guys stand in my heart.
I was reading iWeekly and the reporter was talking about the recent drama 天与地 and how inevitable it will bring Beyond into our mind once again. Call me dumb or a fanboy but it has been awhile since I read something off a lifestyle magazine and I actually feel touched. It was a very weird feeling, an emotion I do not experience often. The journalist pointed out something very interesting, not just about the talent of Beyond but about what this single young man has in his head back than. How much he wanted to change the world with music and wanted things to be different. He made it happen using music. Too bad heaven needs talent and he was taken away at a young age of 31. He is none other than the talented lead singer/song writer of Beyond. - 黃家駒. I can't say that I have heard it all in the music scene but I have heard him and it makes a difference in my life. It is not just about how his music touched me but it's the passion he had for music and for a bigger change in the world.
Beyond might be a reason why I am a dream makers, passion chaser and even a freedom fighter. I like how they have a passion for something and they do it with their best ability and not all commercial like music these days.
The journalist also pointed out something which is so damn true. When was the last time you heard people in the Chinese music scene writing about world peace?
When was the last time you heard people writing about his love to his mum?
I am not sure how much of Beyond do you guys know but I must say their songs ain't just like those recent emo bullshit that just goes i love you and Y U NO LOVE ME. I know this is the trend and I am sure love song is always a trend but they never move with the crowd. Instead they create new trends.
The short speech before the song was really touching. I do not believe he said that to make himself look good but instead he really mean it. Singing about world peace and anti-racist.
This has to be one of the KTV favorite? Singing about passion and life.
Although I am a Beyond fan but I never pick a Beyond song during KTV session cause 1 is never enough. I will go on and on. My heart goes to their song everytime I hear their song being played live even not by them. The time I 1st went dragonfly. I feel so at home when a band plays Beyond's music and play it well. The time I 1st went to live impact which is a thai pub. The thai performers sang a Beyond song. Although in Thai Accent but I still sang at the top of my voice and dance around. The time when the two Malay dude performed a Beyond song during Singapore Social Media Day. My heart almost dropped out. It was so blardy awesome!
I have no idea how the current guys hate each other or not but my heart still goes to the Beyond when
駒 was still with us. I have no idea if we can get a band to be like Beyond in the current market but I must say there will be no band that will be able to replace them.
Beyond is not just about good music but it is about how they touched people and change the world with their music for a bigger course.
Beyond的音乐是永恒的。。。
Beyond的传说是不会变老的。。。
有华人的地方就有Beyond的音乐。。。

So here is the low down on how much they hate each other.
Paul and Steve got into a fist fight in a bar over one concert they did.
Steve sued drummer Wing for misusing the band name Beyond in China.
Paul and Wing is sueing Steve for royalties they was not fairly distributed.
There are more... but yeah i still follow and listen to their solo efforts.
Fist Fight - Checked
Law Case - Checked
looks like these guys really hate each other.
But i heard about the case about them suing Wing for misusing. It's like he did some concept but used Beyond's name instead. Like seriously man these guys.
