"Since the Fall of Saigon, music has expressed our parents’ experiences and struggles. This music, often reflected through genres such as “trữ tình (bolero)” and “vọng cổ (literally “longing for the past”),” developed in South Vietnam, preserved for decades by the overseas community and eventually became re-popularized in Vietnam and around the world. This is not just “Vietnamese” music, this is the music of Vietnamese refugees, of exiles expressing their innermost feelings through music." Literal banger anyway
