Struggling to correct the truth

In many conversations with the press, musician Y Vu admitted that his brother - musician Y Van - was his first teacher in music. Therefore, when he started composing, he took the stage name Y Vu, which is similar to his brother's stage name. Because the two brothers have similar faces and similar stage names, when the press wrote about musician Y Van or illustrated Y Vu's songs, there were a number of newspapers and television stations. Posted a photo of Y Vu but captioned it as Y Van. Especially after Y Van passed away in 1992, many newspapers still included Y Vu's photo in articles about Y Van. That made Y Vu very unhappy.

Y Vu once called a number of editorial offices to correct and replace the photo. One time, Y Vu was even so dissatisfied that he went on his personal page to blame this mistake.

He wrote: "This is my official photo taken a long time ago and is not a photo of the late musician Y Van (my biological brother). But it was mistakenly posted on social networks a long time ago. Then came the chapters. Music shows, even some programs on television stations have posted wrong pictures. My only request is that you should be careful with your business, don't hurt my brother's spirit or hurt me. While still alive, he almost became the avatar of his deceased brother."

The debut song "I Take You to the River" composed by Y Vu also bothered the musician for a long time due to the dispute. In a program on HTV in 2017, Y Vu said he composed this song in 1962, when his unrequited love with a girl failed. After composing, he gave the manuscript to musician Y Van to see.

After 1975, the song I took you to the river was performed by many overseas singers, however Y Vu did not receive any royalties and overseas, musician Nhat Ngan claimed that the song was his own. composed. That made Y Vu sad because he had to correct himself many times with friends and fans.

According to Y Vu, this manuscript was kept by his mother, after she passed away. It took him a while to find it. His speaking up when musician Nhat Ngan passed away would easily cause misunderstandings, but Y Vu was forced to do so for his own honor. "The dispute over this song has made me sad for a very long time, but I couldn't express it, so I just kept feeling angry inside. I would like to confirm one thing that the song is mine, I wrote it alone" - Y Vu said.

According to Y Vu, the character in I Take You to the River is a girl named Thanh, his first love. But the love affair was not complete because he did not have a career and was poor while the girl was a young lady in a rich family.
