Duy Quang no longer has a 'life of passion' 2
I had the honor of getting to know Duy Quang when I was very young, when Saigon was filled with Duy Quang’s figure.
Young people, students… love Duy Quang so much that they put his picture in their notebooks.

Song Khuc Da Vang by musician Trinh Cong Son opens up sadness.
Duy Quang is like a mirror door eager to enter the lives of teenage boys.
The girls want to be `Little Miss Bac Ky`, to be `Kind Like a Sister`… And the guys hope to one day `Take Me Home Under the Rain`.
The beautiful years of young people are to indulge in love songs, sung by Duy Quang… Duy Quang’s singing seems to beautify and sublimate budding love affairs.
That is the school yard, my memory of Duy Quang.
After a while, I met Duy Quang again in America.
A month ago, when I heard that Duy Quang was seriously ill, I was lost in thought.
The last time, when I helped Duy Quang into the restaurant, his weak appearance made me even more worried.
And that time, unexpectedly, was the last time I was with Duy Quang.
Singer Duy Quang.
Duy Quang’s departure brought with him the coldness of winter, my heart felt cold with it.
Duy Quang is a gentle person.
With Duy Quang, we have 600 songs sung by him and many songs composed by him.
…
I know that from now on, during my `Reunion of the Duong Duong` trips, I will no longer have the opportunity to stay awake with Duy Quang and drink glasses of wine filled with love.
Over the past few days, his singing echoed everywhere, flying through the land of nostalgia.
Human life is finite.
I still know that human life is like: `The shadow of a horse passes through the door. Life and death are the normal course of heaven and earth.`
Whether in the distant or temporary world, Duy Quang will always be Duy Quang in the hearts of many people.
Goodbye Duy Quang.
