On the United States' Independence Day, the British Embassy in the United States "lived" again: baby, come back ...

On the American Independence Day, the British Embassy in the United States "lived" again. According to the US "Congress" report, the official Twitter account of the British embassy in the United States shared a picture of a song list to commemorate the American Independence Day on July 4, but there is only one song on this song list called "Baby Back Come back. Baby Come Back, "Congress" said that the British Embassy's move is to pay tribute to the former colonial relationship with the United States. "

According to reports, the British Embassy in the United States wrote on Twitter: We made a song list called "July 4th" and shared a picture. The musical "Hamilton" played a stills of King George III of the British King George III, which reads "You will come back", which is a song in the musical. There are four the same songs in the playlist of the second half of the picture, all of which are the classic songs of the American band The Player "Baby Come on". ↓

It is reported that The Player sang in this 1977 classic song: "Baby, come back/stupid people can also see/I have your figure/baby in my mind. Everything blame me/I am wrong/I can't have you. "

According to the Congress Mountain News, the choice of songs and photos in the British Embassy's tweets is a shameless "tribute" to the British and its American colonial relations. Thirteen colonies in North America announced in July 1776 that they were separated from British independence. At that time, the British ruler George III strongly opposed the move and supervised the failure struggle for the British war to retain the colonies during the independence war.

It is reported that the British Ambassador to the United States Karen Pierce also wrote on Twitter on the 4th: "If there is no Britain, it will not be possible. You are welcome. Happy July 4th!" ↓

The Capitol Mountain News also mentioned that this is not the first time the British Embassy "pay tribute" to the previous relationship between the two countries on the first day of Independence. The British Embassy released a Twitter on July 4, 2017, which was "as a British today in the United States", and then attached a British actress Emma Watson's uncomfortable smile expression pack. ↓
