At the time when the Hong Kong Department of Justice (DOJ) applied to the court for an injunction to prohibit the dissemination of the anti-extradition protest song “Glory to Hong Kong,” and the court has yet to make a ruling, several different versions, as well as the audio/video clips of “Glory to Hong Kong” seem to have been removed from the shelves. “BlackBlog,” the creator of its orchestra and choir version, just found its relevant content recently deleted from its YouTube channel. Its Facebook and Instagram pages have also been made unavailable.
The music video (MV) from the orchestra and choir version of “Glory to Hong Kong” was released in 2019. During the chorus singing session, the performers wore black clothes, helmets, gas masks, and the like. The introduction of the video starts with, “We are a group of cultural arts practitioners in Hong Kong. By combining various musical notes, we can compose the music movements. By distributing these music movements, we can unite people.” The orchestra and choir showed as “a group of Hong Kong music practitioners,” and the filming crew is “a group of Hong Kong film workers.” According to some reports, the video clip has recently drawn nearly eight million views.
