We may often see artists playing guitar and singing on subway stations and overpasses. Maybe the pace of life in modern cities is too fast. Many times, we just glance at it and continue on our way, and we don't even have time to ponder what song we just heard ... The hero of this story is a young man who works as an artist on the street and the location is switched to Dublin, the capital of Ireland. He is different from others. He won't play those popular pop songs to win the favor of the audience. Instead, I am immersed in my own music world and will not be disturbed by the surroundings at all. He will almost blend into the darkness and obscurity in a corner of the city.

However, all this changed in one night. When the boy suddenly found a girl standing in front of him, staring at himself curiously, he didn't know how long she had been standing here ... he was playing a particularly beautiful song, which he created to commemorate a sad past. The girl found the boy's inquiring eyes and suddenly asked, Have you ever been heartbroken, so she wrote this sad song for her? The waiter was startled. He had never seen such a bold girl, but he admitted that the girl saw through his heart. With the deepening of the conversation, the girl learned that the boy worked as a vacuum cleaner maintenance worker during the day, and she let out a cry of excitement-she happened to have a broken vacuum cleaner to be repaired.

Two days later, she took the vacuum cleaner to the repair shop opened by the boy's father. The girl told the boy that she was an immigrant from the Czech Republic. Although she usually shows herself as flower girl, she never gives up playing the classical piano. But she was too poor to buy a piano at all, so a kind-hearted piano shop owner allowed her to play the piano in his shop for an hour every lunch time ... The girl took the boy to her parents' house, and the boy was surprised to find that the girl also had a two-year-old daughter, a single mother.

In the music shop where the girl spends an hour every day, she and the boy have the first chance to play together. He is the leading role and she is the accompaniment. Boys find girls' accompaniment talent extremely high. When the German composer Mendelssohn's music flowed from her fingertips, coupled with a soft and fragile voice, it suddenly became an excellent accompaniment-inspired by the girl, the boy's creative inspiration poured out like a spring, and love sprouted. The boy knew that he had found the other half of his soul. Later, a bass player and a drummer joined the boys and girls respectively, and they formed a band. Unfortunately, due to members' obscurity and low social status, they were ridiculed by a well-known music producer for no reason. However, after only a few hours, the boy-centered band changed the attitude of music producers and finally gained corresponding respect.
