25th Jul 2012 (她來聽我的演唱會 – Jacky Cheung)

The song that I chose for today is “她來聽我的演唱會” by Jacky Cheung. This song came out in 1999, back then this song was quite popular. The direct translation of the title is “She came to listen to my concert”. Quite clearly it is a song about a woman going to Jacky’s concert.

The lyrics is about the life of a woman, but the events are connected by Jacky’s concert. In the first part, it talks about the woman was 17, it was the first time she date with a boy. Her boyfriend waited in line overnight and spent all his money to get her two Jacky’s concert tickets. Sadly after 3 years, she received a letter from her boyfriend and they broke up. She was crying in a train station and it happened that it was playing Jacky’s songs. In the second part, the woman is now 25 years old. She again went to Jacky’s concert with her new boyfriend. But this time she realised that her boyfriend have an affair with another girl. She ignored her phone calls and just try to listen to music at night. It seems that when we get old breaking up is normal, she tried to act normal, but end up crying when she was singing Jacky’s song in Karaoke. In the third part, she is now 33. She thought she found her true love, but one day a young girl come and ask whether she can let go and asked her to leave her boyfriend. She again went to Jacky’s concert, tried to act tough, but again cried when she was singing Jacky’s song in the concert. In the fourth part, she is now 40 and again she went to Jacky’s concert. Her son asked her why she cry in the concert. Her husband has already fallen into sleep.  She just kept quiet and listens to Jacky’s concert.

This is a very touching song, and it is one of my favourite. Hope you will enjoy this song as well.
