27th Aug 2014 (跳飛機 – Leo Ku)

The song for today is “跳飛機” by Leo Ku. The English translation of the title is “Hopscotch”, though if translated directly into English it is “Jump aeroplane” (the lyrics play with words, so it is more related to plane then hopscotch).

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said that it is the end of the season, and bugs start to fly. Air pressure is lower and the clouds float away. Only he is still deep in love with her, but he lacks the courage to fly so he has to move away. He felt that he is trapped in an empty plane, unable to go forward or backward but stuck at 3000 km altitude. She is not willing to love him, but also not willing to let him go. If he could get rid of her first, then it would be like jumping out of a plane. Even if he forgot how to fly he still needs to leave her. Just pretend that he forgot he worried about dying and just take a deep breath. She will never believe that he can fly and not believe he will fly. But he knows that he could let her go. Even if he forgot how to fly he still needs to leave her. Just pretend that he forgot he worried about dying and just take a deep breath. She will never believe that he can fly and not worry that he will fall to dead. Let him fly and not think of her. Love to the end, and there is no turning back. So painful that he started to cry; how many more kilometre could he last? The burden is too heavy, and there is too little oxygen; if he could get rid of her first, then it would be like jumping off from a plane. Hope you will like the song.
