Do you know that there is a particularly interesting meme in China called "Andy Lau Thaws". It originated from Andy Lau's song "Wish You a Prosperous New Year" sung in 2005. By 2025, it will be the 20th anniversary of the release of this song. Every time when the Spring Festival is approaching, this song becomes popular again and becomes a must-have choice for creating a festive atmosphere in supermarkets, streets and homes. These three places can be regarded as the "big three" during the festival.
This meme of "Andy Lau Thaws" is very interesting. This is also a new trend played by netizens recently, giving new meanings to old memes. Such a trend occurs almost every year. When the Spring Festival is approaching, Andy Lau's "Wish You a Prosperous New Year" will be played repeatedly in major shopping malls and public places. As the traditional Chinese festival, the Spring Festival, is approaching, this well-known song is jokingly called by netizens as "Andy Lau is thawing".
In fact, this meme is similar to the foreign "Mariah Carey Thaws". "Mariah Carey Thaws" means that every Christmas, the song "All I Want For Christmas is You" by American singer Mariah Carey is played on the streets and lanes, indicating that Christmas is coming.
Recently, some netizens have produced secondary creation videos of "Andy Lau Thaws" to play with the meme, making this meme an annual limited edition, meaning that this song "Wish You a Prosperous New Year" is about to "thaw" and the Spring Festival is coming.
That man - Andy Lau, is going to "thaw" soon. Before long, he will "appear" in major supermarkets. It is him who wishes everyone prosperity with this song every year. Basically, around the Spring Festival every year, you can hear this song when you go to the supermarket. But to be honest, after so many years, I #### still feel sorry for Andy Lau. He has been wishing me prosperity for so long. Unfortunately, my ability is limited and I haven't become rich yet.
Even so, every time I hear this song, the sense of substitution is super strong. I feel as if I am in the supermarket buying New Year goods, queuing up to weigh the loose gold coin chocolates and Sachima, and then I have to pick tangerines.
Regarding this, many friends said: As soon as Andy Lau's singing starts, I feel like I'm already standing in the loose goods area.
Although there is still some time before the Spring Festival, netizens can't wait for this song to "thaw". Here, I wish everyone prosperity in advance.
