2nd Apr 2014 (我們的電車上 – C AllStar)

The song that I chose for today is “我們的電車上” by C AllStar. I personally quite like this song. The direct English translation of the title is “On our tram”.

The lyrics of the song are about changes in the city. The protagonist said from every signs on the road; walked slowly by following the rail track. The view from above allows him to look at the busy city and she is still accompanying him. He enjoys every part of the city. If it is hot, let’s sit until it starts to rain. There is always a happy moment. He wished to follow the road to go through every century. They will go through “Happy Valley” (it is a place in Hong Kong), then keep flying across miles to the next century. From “Shau Kei Wan” (another place in Hong Kong) to the end, always accompanying you and me. Look, “Causeway Bay” (a place in Hong Kong) is very busy. Every day we start our journey as usual. This second, is like riding on Pegasus, very enjoyable. Look to the left, the style of “Cotton Tree Drive” (a street in Hong Kong), after the turn, the elegant of “Connaught Road” (another road in Hong Kong). After next turn, there is a stop, but the road in front of us, it is still brilliant. The old gate; following the road to observe the changes every day. Look, we have reached “Queen Street” (a street in Hong Kong), but everything have been demolished. Lucky he got the chance to look at this today and use is old camera to capture the moment. Rushing to the pier to have a look. One day it might change with the time. After next turn, there is a stop, but the road in front of us, it is still brilliant. The old gate; tomorrow is still far away, unless there is a limit. Look, as we don’t have time to blink our eyes, perhaps “Sai Wan” (a place in Hong Kong) is still the same. After a few more turns, the cost line have changed, reclamation is happening part by part. The posters on the street have turned old and yet it still hasn’t been wash away. Our memories still remain. After next turn, there is a stop, but the road in front of us, it is still brilliant. The old gate; tomorrow is still far away, how do we get there. Look, we still sigh; so our emotions haven’t disappeared. We still care about our city; it is always brilliant to talk about the city. The light have turned yellow but still haven’t disappeared. In our live we can’t keep any moment. If the atmosphere have tune down, how do we predict changes? After next turn, there is a stop, but the road in front of us, it is still brilliant. The old gate; tomorrow is here. The car keeps going for ten seconds and time slowly passes by. In the rest of his life, he will be sitting next to her and smile with her; they will go through each bridge together. Hope you will like the song.
