Quoc Trung said that he and Thanh Lam sang the song "Separate Lives" again, this is the song that Thanh Lam said was the reason they broke up. "If you want to free each other, sing this song as a duet" - Quoc Trung humorously talked about old memories.

Meanwhile, singer Thanh Lam was not inferior to her ex-husband when she joked that "not only will they sing together, but any couple who hears this song will also break up". Doctor Tien Hung, Thanh Lam's current husband, was standing below the stage.

The Hanoi Alumni Gala lasted nearly 7 hours, from 5pm to midnight, gathering most of the bands, singers and models of the 7X generation (even 6X) such as People's Artist Thanh Lam, musician Quoc Trung, singers Bang Kieu, Thuy Dung, Thanh Tam, Thao Van, Dinh Lan Huong, Lien Trinh, the ABBA Vietnam group, along with the bands Phuong Dong, Thoi Gian, Ngua Hoang, Chia Khoa Vang, Purple Blues...

Famous songs of Vietnamese and international bands from the 1970s, 80s and 90s such as ABBA, Modern Talking, Pink Floyd, Scorpions, Bon Jovi, Queen, Buc Tuong, Phuong Dong band... were performed one after another. Pop, Rock and even Heavy Metal were performed passionately by bands that rose from the capital's student movement to professional bands and artists associated with the memories of an entire generation.

On stage, the artists gave their all in the rain.

The late spring rain could not cool down the warm and passionate atmosphere, reminiscent of the endless music nights of the 1990s - the decade of explosion and romance, a beautiful and short period of time, lasting only a little over a decade, never to be repeated.

Audiences in their 60s and 50s, many of whom are grandparents, still sang along to familiar tunes enthusiastically. Under the pouring rain, many middle-aged audiences lived to the fullest with the melodies of youth.

In the schoolyard, former students of the capital relive youthful memories of 30 years ago.

They sang along, swayed to the music and reminisced about their beautiful youth during the 6 hours of non-stop music at the party.

When it rains, there are umbrellas and raincoats, many people don't even need anything to cover themselves, they stand bareheaded in the school yard swaying to the music, drifting back to the past, when they were students 20-30 years ago with the spirit of "the rain wets our clothes/ how can it wet our spirit".

Classic international student songs from the 1990s-2000s, both in lyrics and melody, such as: Hotel California, We are the Champions, Take on me, It's my life, Cheri Lady, You're my heart you're my soul, One moment in time, Everlasting love, True Colors, Everything I do, I do it for u, Mamma Mia!.... are like a train of memories taking former students of the Capital back to the most beautiful years of their lives, when they were full of life, studying and loving passionately.

The audience was not only impressed by MC Thao Van's voice and professional performance style, but also surprised when singer Thai Thuy Linh suddenly appeared on stage to shield her senior from the rain as it was getting heavier.

MC Thao Van received enthusiastic support in her role as a singer.

Meritorious Artist Thanh Tam sang the song "A Million Roses" in Russian, which many generations of students knew by heart. She continued to win over the audience when she sang a duet "Khoạn khẩu" with the once famous singer Thuy Dung.

The show gave the audience a surprise at the last minute with a performance by the band Phuong Dong with Thanh Lam and Quoc Trung. Bang Kieu, a member of the band Golden Key, made the stage more exciting with a medley with musician Tuan Nghia.

The song "We are the world" closed the show with the participation of all artists, leaving an unforgettable echo with the audience.

MC Dinh Tien Dung shared that this year's Hanoi Alumni Gala has more than 50 performances with the participation of 108 artists. This is also the program with the largest number of participating artists in Vietnam, reaching more than 6,000 years old, so he jokingly said that the Organizing Committee will register to set a record for this event.

The song "We are the world" closed the show.
