13th Jan 2014 (Saranghae – Justin Lo)

The song that I chose for today is “Saranghae” by Justin Lo. This is one of my favourite songs, it was out a few years ago when Justin decided to pause his career in Hong Kong and move to China. The title is in Korean (note that the song is in Cantonese), according to internet, it means “I love you” in English.

The lyrics of the song area bout love. The protagonist said that when he sing his song, she doesn’t understand, then it is his fault; but when he sung to that line, only her would understand him. He had never gone crazy like this, the whole day he just thinks about her. This makes him stronger, but yet, he also wanted to cry quietly. Baby Chakeah, she is more important than himself. He felt that he got strength when he is with her. He wanted to clear out the tears marks on her face, and he will provide a simple world for her so that he could hear her laughter. He promises her that he will love her the same way even when they aged. If she left him, he will die, but the history of their love will never die. He will yell “Saranghae” to the sky, to show to the world that no one else could replace her. He will tell others how he loves her until the air is full of love. It makes sense that he can’t calm down, he will hold her and breathe from her. Hope you will like the song.
