7th Feb 2014 (玫瑰園 –劉以達與夢 (Tats Lau with Dream))

The song that I chose for today is “玫瑰園” by 劉以達與夢 (They don’t really have an official English name, the closes that I can translate to is “Tats Lau with Dream”). I have completely forgotten about this song until a few days ago I heard it on the radio. I used to laugh at this song when I was a kid, because their music video was quite ‘different’ to the other music video at the time, more importantly, Tats Lau doesn’t sing (he is the one that wrote the song) but he still appeared in the music video and do something that is completely unrelated to the song itself. The direct English translation of the title is “Rose garden”.

The lyrics of the song are about future (I guess), there isn’t really a clear idea throughout the song. The protagonist said that you grow your flowers, she grows hers and see whose flowers will be better. You looked at her flower and she looked at your flower, would there be a lot of differences? Really, your flowers and her flowers are both call flowers. Walking in the wind and rain and forth and back many times, there is no peaceful land in the world. There is only future that would still allow her to have dreams and run away. Every hard work, every thunder storm and every inch that we walk forward is to get closer to our dreams. Her heart is like a seed. In this land, rose blossom. She was once happy, but until all the roses are dead. Followed by bauhinia and peony, which one will be higher. Hope you will like the song.
