2nd Mar 2013 (星秀傳說 – Sammi Cheng)

The song that I chose for today is “星秀傳說” by Sammi Cheng. This song came out in 1997, it was very popular back then, it was also the time when Sammi was very popular. I remember I used to loop between this song and “一夜成名”.  As the two songs were so popular, there was a remix version call “星秀傳說 (一夜星秀版)” which mixes the two songs together. The direct English translation of the title is “Star show legend”.

Not sure about it actual intention, but I think the lyrics actually describing how Sammi feels back then. The lyrics are basically about a rising star. It said that the protagonist wonder who’s the person named the stars on the sky, and why every star got a name. She wishes that she could do something great, she had achieved this many time in her dreams, so let’s use the stars in the sky to form her name. She is a person that likes to gaze at the stars. She understands that stars could be uses to guide directions and if it is dark at night, their light could lighten the road. She said that it is not easy to be famous, but she wishes that her fate would lead her to a high place, like where the stars are, then it will be her dream came true. Hope you will like the song.
