Hong Kong is being fingerpointed as a ‘City of Complaints’ since the early 2000s. Numerous public demonstrations take place every year, and very few of the demands have been properly addressed by the establishment. Grievances of the public were generally regarded as a Canton Pop Song here: categorized, easy to sing, and easy to forget. This is not a formal Hong Kong Complaints Choir Video, but is a Karaoke Version for the public to sing along. Singing Karaoke is one of the most popular activities among the Hongkongers, especially among the youngsters. In addition, general public are not allowed to sing in many ‘public spaces’ without permit. People who do so will be quickly questioned by the security, and may be summoned by court. Footages of this video were drawn from various YouTube clips uploaded by Hong Kong people. This video is available in YouTube, so everyone would search and sing with it. Similar to the arrangement of the Complaints Song of Hong Kong, it is a sewing-up of the existing local spectacles.
