29th Oct 2013 (絕對 – Denise Ho)

The song that I chose for today is “絕對” by Denise Ho. Personally I love this song, I like the way that the song start off with a simple tune by a wooden guitar. The direct English translation of the title is “Absolute”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. It said that no matter who we play with or who we decided to have a relationship with, at a certain point the heat will disappeared. It will naturally turn off and the tea would become water. In our journey, we ask who is absolute; the person for us is the one that are connected to us and after ten or twenty years, we will still be the same. So even if we lost the world, he will still be there. Even when everyone was silenced, he will still be proud of us. He would not care about our past. Others might see the protagonist as troublesome, but he never thought that way. There is no promise that last for ever. In a contract, if one party betrayed the other, the contract would be broken. So no matter how nice the person is, the relationship will not last. If the relationship is easy come and easy go, then perhaps having a partner is only a temporary thing. In that case, how do we proof that we are in love. So even if we lost the world, he will still be there. No matter where she go, he will still let the protagonist to go back with him. He never cares about her past and no matter what happened to her he still loves her. No matter we play with or who we developed a relationship with, at some point we will lost interest. The only pair that can go through all the difficulties are parents. Hope you will like the song.
