Description You and I kiss goodbye on a deserted street
Let the wind laugh, I can't refuse it
You and I kiss goodbye on a tumultuous night
My heart is waiting to meet sadness...

~a rough translation of Jacky Cheung's song, " 吻别" (Kiss Goodbye)

The guy in the foreground either is or is not originally in the song, depending on how you interpret who he is and what he's doing there

I realized later that the scene described in the song is actually on a wintry night, and I had originally intended to include some wind effects and then forgot to do so. Plus, I think I could do the silhouette of the man in the foreground a little better. I foresee a re-paint in the future.

Media: White and ultramarine blue acrylic paint on a 16x20" canvas. It ended up being more monochromatic than I'd anticipated.
Time: ~3 hours

What a beautiful song! Thanks for your translation, even if it was rough I can better understand the context now, can't read Chinese though some of the marks are the same in Japanese. I like the emotion put into the blue, it's so impactful here!
