14th Nov 2013 (情意結 – Priscilla Chan)

The song that I chose for today is “情意結” by Priscilla Chan. Priscilla is one of my favourite singers. From memories this song dated back to 2003. The direct English translation of the title is “Attached feeling”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist asked why every time at breakfast, she feels that her spirit escaped her body. Then she realised it was because that day when she got dump, she still have to go to work. She knows that if she can make it through, others will look up to her, but she realised that being tough and loving herself is actually very hard. She feels that her love for him was wasted and cruel nice people are always beautiful. Don’t worry, no one will be able to replace you. So please leave behind some glass for her to knee on, because that way she believe that she will have new topic that she could discuss with you. Then don’t tell her to take care of herself and just let this slave of memory go. She will misunderstand your fake sigh as a real comfort. She believes that even knowing he will leave her again; she is still willing to fall in love with him again. So just let her keep dreaming about their love. There are many misunderstandings between them but why still visit her? But her pain disappeared when she think of him. When they become friend, she realised that she know him more. She realised that she still loves him. She is not afraid of this type of relationship, as she knows that all her ex’s will stick to her for her whole life. Hope you will enjoy the song.
