Today the song that I chose is “Shall we talk” by EasonChan. Eason is a very famous Chinese singer and he is also one of my favourite
singer. This song is a Chinese song (in fact Cantonese song). Hopefully in the
near future, if I got the mood, I will introduce you to some of the English
songs that Eason sing.
Since this song is in Chinese, I am going to give a brief description
of the lyrics so that you get a feel of it. This song revolves around life and
communication. It started of talking about a kid who loves to play, but he is
worry about his parents’ expectation. So looking to mother’s eyes feels like as
if he has to stay after school. (It is very typical of Chinese that their kids
are usually very scare about their parents; I guess non-asian is a bit hard to
understand this situation). This part discuss why grownup don’t understand kids,
they they have to force them to study and have high expectation of them. If
they can chat with each other maybe the situation could be better. Then the
second part of the song makes a jump in time, now it talks about the kid have
become a grownup and is in love. Now at this age, the now grownup kid only cares
about his gain from work, but his lover only care about promises; why the two
of they can’t understand each other. If they can open their heart to each
other, they could have better understand each other and maybe it wouldn’t have led
to a breakup. In the third part, the saddest part of all, the kid is now an old
man. He realised that time have gone by, but yet nothing had change. He is
still alone and lonely, so lonely that he can hear the sound of leaf falling.
If you feel that this song is reflecting your life, it is
not too late to change it. Hope you would be touched by this song as much as I
do.
