Tình cờ nghe bài hát Tình Khúc BUồn của Ngọc Lan trên youtube, tìm hiểu Ngọc Lan trên wikipedia, thì mới biết là hôm nay đúng 10 năm ngày cô mất. Lướt thêm vài bài nữa đến bài Hạnh Phúc Nơi Nào của Ngọc Lan hát…không thể nào diễn tả nỗi… 10 năm ngày cô mất là quãng thời gian dài cô nhỉ? Cảm ơn cô đã đem tiếng hát của mình đến mọi người, trong đó có con.
R.I.P Ngọc Lan
Cuộc đời đúng là vô thường( hic hic..).
Có đò rồi mất đó như nước trôi qua cầu. Sự ra đi quá sớm và quá nhanh của cô đã làm Lan sống mãi trong trong lòng những người đã từng là big fan của nàng.
