19th Sep 2013 (幸而 – Myolie Wu)

The song that I chose for today is “幸而” by Myolie Wu (胡杏兒). This was a theme song for a TV drama. Personally I quite like this song. The direct English translation of the title is “Fortunate”. Note that the word “幸而” pronounce the same as “杏兒” (Myolie’s Chinese name). I think this was done on purpose, as (from memory) this was Myolie’s first song.

The lyrics of the song are about love. It begins with the protagonist telling us that day when their bodies were getting close, they love each other deeply. But if he had heard her heart, she wonders whether he would change his mind. She learns a lesson from this and she didn’t hate him, but she wanted to know why she is still crying and can’t sleep at night. There is no need for the sky to get darker, as this is her destiny. Back then he made an effort to put down their difference in their background to begin their love. She wanted to know why people said that they don’t match. After all these years they are still waiting for each other. If she hasn’t put away their love, she feels that she can’t fall in love again. So even though they are apart, but she can still make a record of it. That day they were sad, but even until today she is still hurt by the breakup. She didn’t wished to be broke up, but lucky she had love. She realised that because their love was so colourful, so that she still remember this relationship. If she can’t conquer him, she wishes that he would take some time off to meet up with her even he might already have a new girlfriend. She knows that she should have pull herself back and fall back to sleep, but she doesn’t know why her tears are keep dropping from her eyes. Her dry heart is already broken, so she can’t sleep. Her can’t live with the fact that she let her perfect match go, so it is already determined that they will never be together again. But every time she thinks of him she will cry. Perhaps she should have keep going with their relationship back then because she knows that she was a bit happy. But she cared too much about what he was thinking. She knows that if their love is still there, they would remember this for life, but sadly, this love never existed. Hope you like the song.
幸而 – Myolie Wu
