HCM CITY— Forty singers and theatre artists perform in an MV released on YouTube that aims to  encourage people in HCM City during the Covid-19 pandemic. 

The MV, Sài Gòn Sống Như Tia Nắng Mặt Trời (Sài Gòn - You’re the Sunshine), released on Sunday (August 1), features themes of love, unity, mercy, energy and belief. 

The song is by composer Nguyễn Đình Bảo who lives in California. The artist invited Vietnamese artists at home and abroad to perform his work. 

The artists recorded and filmed their performance at home and sent their videos to composer Bảo. 

Bảo worked with music producer Hoàng Touliver, who has had many hits, and art director Đỗ An on production. 

Sài Gòn Sống Như Tia Nắng Mặt Trời features pop stars Cẩm Vân, Uyên Linh and Soobin Hoàng Sơn.

Vietnamese-American singers Minh Tuyết, Thanh Hà, Quang Dũng and Hà Trần are included.  

Young rapper Gonzo, Miss Universe Vietnam 2018 H’Hen Niê and Miss Universe Vietnam 2019 Khánh Vân are also featured. 

The MV includes beautiful images of HCM City and its people in daily life. 

Photos of doctors, nurses, health workers in the COVID-19 fight are also featured. 

The MV attracted more than 25,549 views after just one day on YouTube. 

“I wrote the song Sài Gòn Sống Như Tia Nắng Mặt Trời after learning the challenges and suffering that people living in HCM City have faced during the Covid-19 pandemic,” said composer Bảo, who began his career in HCM City in 2001. 

“My song came from my deep love for HCM City and its people. It highlights the Vietnamese spirit in fighting against the virus spread.” 

Miss Universe Vietnam 2018 H’Hen Niê hopes the MV Sài Gòn Sống Như Tia Nắng Mặt Trời will connect people together during the pandemic.

“We want to send messages to encourage and praise the solidarity and bravery of people these days,” she said. 

H’Hen Nie, of the Ê Đê ethnic minority in the Tây Nguyên (Central Highlands) province of Đắk Lắk, works in different fields, including fashion and movies. She has been involved in several charity and community projects aimed at young women and children of ethnic groups.— VNS
