1. Twenty-two - Hứa Kim Tuyền - AMEE
'Life is a pink color,' my mother said when I was born
'Smiling is wonderful,' my mother said when I turned five
Even with crooked teeth, short legs, and non-slim shoulders
The sun may be partially flat, but why does the world always need it?
'Be proud of yourself,' my mother said when I turned 10'
'Don't hesitate,' my mother said when I turned 12
Even if sometimes I lose my way and forget the path
Maturity is wonderful for learning from mistakes
Later, when I'm twenty-two, I'll see how beautiful my eyes are
Hearing the clear voice sometimes makes me feel very special
And remember, no one is supposed to be like anyone else in this world
So when I'm twenty-two, live innocently like I'm twelve
First love is a wonderful thing that I remember all my life
Every touch and every tenderness makes my heart flutter
Don't care too much about where it will lead
Memories stay even if someone goes far away forever
Later, when I'm twenty-two, I'll see how beautiful my eyes are
Hearing the clear voice sometimes makes me feel very special
And remember, no one is supposed to be like anyone else in this world
So when I'm twenty-two, live innocently like I'm twelve
Later, when I'm twenty-two, let my song echo everywhere
Spread the love I'm holding within to all corners of the horizon
It will be difficult because sometimes I'll feel lonely
But it's okay to give behind without expecting anything in return
Twenty-two (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Twenty-two (ooh-wooh)
It will be difficult because sometimes I'll feel lonely
But it's okay to give behind without expecting anything in return
Twenty-two
Twenty-two
Twenty-two
Twenty-two
The globe is a circle, so the world revolves
What I receive is what I unconsciously give
So if I ever leave this place later
Don't be afraid and hesitate because leaving is also about coming back'
Recently, young singer Amee collaborated with musician Hứa Kim Tuyền to release the MV Twenty-two (22), marking her return to the Vietnamese music scene. The song talks about changes in life, work, and studies at the age of 22. Shortly after its release, the song received enthusiastic support from music-loving audiences.

2. Fast-paced Years - Vương Phi
'Fast-paced years, how many times have we said goodbye only to reconcile afterwards
Regret that no one has ever loved without enduring the ups and downs of love
And then we can only wait for someone else to come to complete us
Don't blame the kiss that hasn't yet sealed into a scar
Holding onto long winter's sleep can't grow wings into fairies
Don't blame this relationship for not having enough time to practice more
This is the tolerance that time has given to those erroneous times
If when we meet again, the eyes can't be moist
Then can the face still blush?'
The love of young people was once deep, but it gradually fades away with the fast-paced years. 'Months and years pass, flowers drift, and water flows.' Is there any love that can withstand the passing youth, when the once intense passion only leaves remnants after the storms of life?

3. Youth - Da LAB
Today we wake up like any other day
Seeing the youth of yesteryears suddenly return
You look in the mirror, no longer seeing the traces of past worries
Wearing a pretty dress, waiting for me to pass by
I will take you back to the days of yesterday
When all the worries were still far away
When youth still resides in our hair
When the sky remains a serene blue
Life still stretches out before us
And all our dreams lie not too far ahead
It's just the two of us
Just us oh
Leading you back to youth
To those initial signs of love
Letting worries pass by lightly
We'll double twenty times over
And the dreams we once had
In a separate layer of clouds just for us
Time lightly flows, despite your occasional regret
The night draws dreams that pull me deep into your eyes
Our journey together, like frames stored in memory
Our youth was dedicated to each other
I'll still reach out for you without waiting for anything
And I'll still ride my bike after you absentmindedly, just like before
A bouquet by the door, no message attached
Giving you all my bitter tears alongside those smiles
Thirty years in life, how many regrets
But if given a chance to go back, I'll still hold your hand until the end
Together writing our life story until there's only one thing left to say
Yes, I love you baby
Peace visits this afternoon
Youth fills the sky with clouds
Exchanging hesitations, wiping away each other's tears
For clumsily giving each other our first times huh
Leading you back to youth
To those initial signs of love
Letting worries pass by lightly
We'll double twenty times over
And the dreams we once had
In a separate layer of clouds just for us
Leading you back to youth
To those initial signs of love
Letting worries pass by lightly
We'll double twenty times over
And the dreams we once had
In a separate layer of clouds just for us
Today we wake up like any other day
Seeing the youth of yesteryears suddenly return
You look in the mirror, no longer seeing the traces of past worries
Wearing a pretty dress, waiting for me to return
Da LAB just released a new MV titled Youth. The song carries simple tones, gentle vocals, and lyrics that evoke memories of a past youth. The content of the song looks back at youth through a calm attitude and very honest confessions, including both happiness and regrets, but without bitterness or remorse.

4. Those Young Days - Hồ Hạ
'If only we could go back to those young days
When you sat in the classroom right in front of me
You were deliberately doing something to make me cute when I got angry
Our names written on that blackboard
Would you be willing to share?
Whoever sits with someone else, he will love her'
Those young days, those beautiful student years that surely everyone has experienced will be remembered for a lifetime. A time of innocence and naivety, knowing how to love but not knowing how to express it correctly and sincerely. Time passes by, space is too vast, wanting to go back to yesterday, it's already too late.

5. The Price of Love - Trương Ngải Gia
'Do you still remember the dreams of youth?
Like those flowers that never wither
Have been through so much with me
Looking at the impermanence of the world, watching the changing tide
The things paid for love'
Love always brings sweetness, but also hides many bitterness. And perhaps the most painful thing is to dedicate your youth to someone, only to end up not being together. The person we love belongs to someone else. The price for that love is the fleeting youth of each person.

6. Sending Our Youth Away - Giang Khải Văn - Trương Dao - Ngô Úy
'Singing a song to reminisce about our passing youth
Loving someone, innocently thinking it will last a lifetime
Singing a song to reminisce about love then letting it go
There will be someone always walking with me, never leaving'
Everyone's youth is perhaps always associated with a memorable love affair, a period of time when we sacrifice ourselves for love. When we grow up and look back, we may laugh, wondering why we were so foolish back then. But if time could turn back, surely we would still make the same choices for love.

7. Promise of Dandelions - Châu Kiệt Luân
'Dandelions by the elementary school fence
Evoke beautiful scenery in me
The cicadas chirping outside the playground during afternoon naps
Still easy to hear after all these years
Write wishes on paper planes as letters
Because we can't wait for shooting stars
Drop coins seriously to determine fate'
Perhaps within us, there are always places resembling memories. As the years go by, we grow up, returning to those places is like meeting old friends. We suddenly realize that the scenery remains the same, only we and the other person have changed, unable to return anymore.

8. Remember When - Alan Jackson
'Remember when
I was young and so were you
and time stood still and love was all we knew
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried
Remember when'
The song reminisces about a young man's memories of youth. About a love filled with joy, sadness, and regrettable misunderstandings. But as long as we learn to empathize and forgive, we can walk together to the end of our lives.

9. Growing Older, Growing Lonelier - Milk@Coffee
'Growing older, growing lonelier, growing more restless
We must both witness our shattered dreams,
While returning to every word spoken, questioning ourselves,
'Where did your innocence disappear to?
To grow up, we must endure many trials and tribulations. And it is the pain we endure that makes us shrink into our own world, so that no one has the chance to hurt us again. We realize, the innocence, the recklessness, the youthful joys, where have they all gone?

10. Eternity - Stratovarius
'I find myself standing alone in the darkness
The winter of my life arrived so swiftly
Memories take me back to my childhood
To days that linger still
Oh how blissful those days were
No sorrow, no pain did they bear
Strolling through the verdant fields
Basking in the sunshine'
Youth, everyone wants to explore, to venture down every path. But nothing lasts forever, we realize that we haven't done all we wanted, youth is slipping away. At that moment, we need someone by our side to dispel the long-standing feeling of loneliness. But will anyone sacrifice their youth waiting for us to stop?

11. Reflections of Yesteryears - The Carpenters
'In my youth, I used to tune in to the radio
Anticipating my favorite tunes
Singing along as they played
It brought a smile to my face
Those were moments of pure bliss
Not too long ago, it seems
I often wondered where they'd disappeared
Yet here they are again
Like an old friend returning
All the cherished songs flooding back'
During our youth, we often have some crazy habits that gradually fade away as we mature. Then, at some point, those seemingly forgotten habits unexpectedly return like an old friend. They make us cry, but they also make us smile. That's youth, that's yesterday once more for each of us.

12. Reminiscing Youth - Roy Clark
'Back in the days of my youth
Life's flavor was sweet
Like raindrops on my tongue
I played with life as if it were a childish game
Just like the evening breeze
Teasing the candle's flame'
When we're less acquainted with life, we paint rosy and warm scenarios. But time disappoints us with life's many ups and downs. Even though we may not want to confront it, perhaps the only thing we can do is nod and accept.

13. When We Were Young - Adele
'Everyone admires all the things you do
From the way you speak to the way you groove
Everyone around is looking at you
'Cause you seem like home
You're like a dream that came true
But if you happen to be here alone
Could I have a moment before I move on?
'Cause I've been on my own all night long
Hoping you're someone I used to know'
When we're young, we can be crazy, foolish even. We often blame ourselves for it. But as we change and grow, wanting to rediscover the past days we once despised, we may not even realize where it's gone.

14. Until We Meet Again - Wiz Khalifa
'It's been a long day without you, my friend
And I'll share all my stories when we meet again
We've traveled far from where we first began
Oh, I'll share all my stories when we meet again
When I see you again'
Close friends are like glue, but there comes a day when we have to part ways, each heading down a different path. Life is full of ups and downs, and everyone must pursue their dreams. Who knows when we'll meet again? When that day comes, we'll surely have a lot to catch up on, won't we?

15. Apologies - Adele
'Apologies from the heart
I must have said it a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for all the pain I've caused
But whenever I try, you're never there to hear
Apologies, but it's too late to try
To tell you I'm sorry for the tears you cried
But it doesn't matter now, it doesn't seem to hurt you anymore'
In youth, our recklessness and inflated egos often lead us to regrettable mistakes, both in life and in love. It's only with time, loss, and pain that we come to realize the hurt we've caused those we once loved. Are apologies too little, too late?

16. Reflections - Lưu Nhược Anh
'Later on, when I finally learned how to love
Regrettably, you vanished amidst the crowd
Later on, in my final tears, I finally understood
Some people, once lost, will never return
The pure white petals of the magnolia tree
Slowly fall onto your green dress
You softly said: 'I love you'
I gently breathed in a fragrant scent
...
How will you remember me?
Will you smile or just sit quietly?
In recent years, has anyone made you less lonely?
Later on, when I finally learned how to love
Regrettably, you vanished amidst the crowd
Later on, in my final tears, I finally understood
Some people, once lost, will never return'
Unrequited love, full of regrets, is often the last remnants of pure emotion left in all of us. Later on, regardless of how things turn out, all that remains is regret — regret for not expressing ourselves, regret for fear causing us to lose each other forever, regret for not having a future together. It's truly regrettable that after learning to love someone, they no longer remain the same person we once knew. Holding onto those memories of youth isn't such a bad idea after all.

17. Passing Youth
'You look at me, we laugh together
Listening to the birds returning to the roof
One day we'll grow old
With sparse teeth, a smile so wrinkled
Where will we go, my love?'
When young, we always fear the day we'll grow old. But eventually, everyone must accept that inevitable fate. And we console ourselves that when youth fades, the happiness of the past will be replaced by a simpler, more peaceful happiness.

18. Our Youth - Bùi Anh Tuấn ft Bảo Anh
'Live happier, just go
Listen to your heart, just go
Even if people criticize, blame us for being naive
We won't mind. Youth swiftly passes by
We can't hold onto anything
Love someone, live joyfully for a lifetime
Just do what makes you happy.'
The song Our Youth by singers Bảo Anh and Bùi Anh Tuấn, composed by musician Châu Đăng Khoa. The lyrics are like a breath of fresh air for those feeling pessimistic about life. Just live happily, for life is only one. Don't care about what others think of you, that's when you'll find peace. The lively melody and perfect combination of Bảo Anh and Bùi Anh Tuấn seem to have brought us a vitamin C full of energy.

19. Go to Return - Soobin Hoàng Sơn
'Every long journey we've taken
Now sitting alone, feeling nostalgic
Every day the sun rises high
Above each roof
Every long journey we've taken
Leaves behind precious memories
Leaves behind one thing, the farther we go
The more we miss home...
Go far to come back
Go far to come back
There's a place to return, go to return...'
Because youth is about harboring dreams, planning trips to explore exotic and beautiful places with friends and family. Youth is about taking long strides on the uncertain path ahead, with a family waiting behind. That's the greatest happiness that youth offers you.

20. Let's Freeze Together - Thùy Chi
'Let's freeze together before the moment we part
School time passes quickly like a dream that won't come back
We have to go through
Don't cry
We'll grow up, we'll walk on new paths.'
Let's Freeze Together is a song from the latest single by female singer Thùy Chi written by musician Tiên Cookie. The MV preserves the memories of youth, the innocent, dreamy, mischievous, and lovely memories of FPT students. This fresh combination has brought Thùy Chi her second hit about school years in her career since Xe đạp. With gentle, profound lyrics, a slow, catchy melody, and truly emotional lyrics, Let's Freeze Together has become the hottest school song at the moment and is loved by many young people, especially in graduation videos.

21. Youth Anthem - Tamka PKL
'Human life is fleeting
Oh dear, live to make yourself happy
Live as if we've never lived before
Hold hands and walk through the long night
This youth we're freezing together
Shoulder to shoulder from morning till night
Sing out as if we've never sung before
Who knows what tomorrow will bring'
There's a youth like that, full of passion, full of plans, and not afraid of difficulties. It's a youth with simple joys with friends, traveling across the horizon to find happiness, ideals. It's also the time to live for dreams, for passions, and for our own love. That's what youth is all about.

22. Sweet Sixteen – Anna Trương
'Welcoming the morning sunrays, a new day is near. Let's sing, sing the longing song just turned 16, the song of the approaching day, footsteps joyously lively, on this happy day I want to sing out loud, heart beating faster, youth just beginning'
Sweet Sixteen marks Anna Trương's debut project as a singer. The song, composed by Anh Quân, was specially dedicated to her daughter, with the music video produced by singer Mỹ Linh. The MV tells the story of Anna's 16th birthday in a cheerful, happy atmosphere surrounded by family and friends.

23. Twenty – Mỹ Tâm
'A new season warmly welcomes you, looking fresh and lovely
Welcoming you back to visit the pink sunny horizon
With lips humming a melody, perfuming the moonlit garden
Twenty, you frolic happily in life'
This is a composition by musician Quốc Bảo dedicated to Mỹ Tâm, included in the album 'Forever Love' published in 2001. At that time, Mỹ Tâm had just turned 20 and was just starting her career. Twenty is a 'memorable milestone' of youth for the 80s and 90s generations, still sung by many people to this day. In 2018, the song was 'revived' in Mỹ Tâm's reissued album after 17 years.

24. Reflections at Thirty – Trịnh Thăng Bình
'Days of weariness, worries drifting away
Startled, realizing I've aged
Long forgotten how to miss and love someone
Then one day it feels like being 20 again
When I see your eyes and smile
You make my heart restless and erratic
Repeatedly, I fear you'll reject me
That's why I pen down these thoughts'
Reflections at Thirty was composed by Trịnh Thăng Bình in just 2 hours, capturing all his thoughts and concerns. The song has a catchy melody and emotional lyrics that touch the listeners' hearts with the simple, everyday story of a 30-year-old man who has lived a third of his life but is still searching for true love.

25. Soliloquy at 25 – Trương Thảo Nhi
'I'm like a carp floating on the lake
Waiting for the light to shine in my eyes
I'm like a wave rolling on the long sandy shore
Waiting for the dawn to awaken from slumber
Ah ha, wandering in the wind Ah ha, rain drifting to the sky
Where does someone hear the stirring melody
The song remains, yet no one seems to notice
Loneliness hides the pain alone
Swimming against the current, burying memories'
The song, composed by Thảo Nhi and competed in the Sing My Song 2016 contest, quickly caused a stir by receiving 4 nods from the coaches. With Soliloquy at 25, she was praised for her maturity and a departure from the quirky persona she had in her earlier works like Four Words.
