At IMC, we like things that are simple but effective. Short verses, short choruses, this is what Isaac Chan offers in "Lifelong". The artist is from Hong Kong. As far back as we can remember, it seems we've only been to Hong Kong once or twice in the history of our platform, so we can say it's an event, and we are delighted to meet this young and talented artist.

"Lifelong" is the story of a young man who wants to change. He reassures himself by telling himself that these latest failures are only a step, after all, and that they won't last for a lifetime.

A pretty acoustic folk ballad, with a touch of violin which brings a whole new dimension to the song. Lots of poetry in the lyrics and a soft, pleasant voice. The quality is obviously very high and despite a decent length of 4:15, the song felt short when it ended. But that's okay, you can always use the play button again. That's what we did. Several times. Isaac Chan is addicting.

Lyrics

Is this my lifelong story

Of watching people fall in love

Is this my lifelong never happy ending

Of singing songs to myself

No I’m not the man I used to be before

I am, I am no more

Cuz one day I will find my truth

And it’ll be lifelong

Is this a new beginning

Or another big mistake

Will I find myself walking all alone again

Or will I make this right

No I’m not the man I used to be before

I am, I am no more

Cuz one day I will find my truth

And it’ll be lifelong

Is this my lifelong story

Of watching her fall in love

Is this my lifelong never happy ending

Or will I make this right

No I’m not the man I used to be before

I am, I am no more

Cuz one day I will find my truth

And it’ll be lifelong

Cuz one day I will find my truth

And it’ll be lifelong

Cuz one day I will find my truth

And it’ll be lifelong
