17th Jan 2013 (冷靜 – Jacky Cheung)

The song that I chose for today is “冷靜” by Jacky Cheung. This is a song from Jacky’s very successful musical “雪狼湖”. The direct English translation of the title is “Calm”.

Before I talk about the lyrics I guess I need to briefly talk about the story of “雪狼湖” as the song are related to that. In the story Jacky was a gardener. He had fallen in love with his master’s daughter. The master discovered that and separated the lover and putting him in jail. When he finally came out from jail, he meet a girl looks exactly like his girlfriend. The two attracted each other (while Jack somewhat believe that he is treating her as a replacement as his previous girlfriend). At the end, it turns out that this girl is the younger twin sister of his previous girlfriend, and the older had passed away during an argument in her bad marriage.

So now back to the song. The lyrics of the song are about the protagonist trying to distinguish whether his feeling toward  his new girlfriend are really feeling toward her or just projecting his love to his previous girlfriend on her. He told us that in his dream he remember he run toward his ex-girlfriend, she look sad and he wanted to help her out and give her a hug. Yet he feel guilty as now his current girlfriend is right next to him yet his heart is with his ex. HE don’t want to lie to her, as he don’t want her to be his ex’s projection,  so he tried to calm himself down and figure out who he love the most. Hope you will like the song.
