JJ Lin Jun Jie's new single Above the Fray for Guang Yin Fu Ben (Literally translated as A Copy of Time) shot up the charts when it was released. To understand this song, (which is pretty difficult), one has to understand the concept of his album this time.
His MV begins with this description:" Countless universes mirror the multiverse within me, like a sheet of music turned ,etched with the bittersweet echoes of the past.Through the shadows, I found my light. This song captures my 21-year JJ20 journey. "This song takes time as the theme, combines JJ Lin's consistent fascination with the concept of time, and presents his deep understanding of memories, reflections and emotions in life. This song has 2 versions, the Chinese Version- "Guang Yin Fu Ben" and the english version "Turn of A Page" .
His english version lyrics here : Turn of A Page- JJ Lin
星空拉著路⼈ 記憶碰撞年輪

(People are running on the track, holding on, fighting for it, and enduring it.)
⼼在⿊裏跪著 吼著 問著 等著
