Andrea Bocelli, Na Ying - Remembering - 苏州河

[soryang]

2. Yes

The 800 ( 八百 ) is the title. Forgot to mention that. So 蘇州河 Suzhou River, the river between the warehouse, which is still there and the old international concession area on the other side, I think is the Chinese name of the song. The warehouse was made into a museum a few years back.

I noticed when looking at some reviews, that the 800 was maybe not the true number. I got the impression from the movie, that the number of surviving troops may have been exaggerated by the commander for tactical reasons at the time. The movie is very violent and not that easy to follow, so the reviews are mixed. I watched anyway because of historical interest in the subject matter, and the contemporary relevance of the movie.

Thanks for your comments, I think you have the song's intent exactly.
