29th Jan 2015 (紀念日 – Kelly Chan and Dry)

The song for today is “紀念日” by Kelly Chan and Dry, a song from 1997. Dry was a music group formed by Mark Lui and Stephen Fung. I guess many people had forgotten about Dry as it wasn’t there for too long. These days, Mark is famous as a famous song writer and producer, while Stephen focuses on movies. The direct English translation of the title is “Memorial day”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. As this song is sung by 3 people (and 5 entities, Kelly, Mark, Stephen, Dry and All), I will indicate their respective line by the first letter of the entity. M: Meet, on a day full of fireworks. Date, on the day when rhododendron first blossom. K: Every scene is circulating in our head, just like photographs that we took yesterday. M: Promise, on the day when the storm hit Hong Kong. Combined, on the day with the highest temperature. K: Still wishes, there will be unlimited years to come to create more classic with you. D: Search for a special day in ordinary life. K: Through the special day I will think of you even more. D: Search for romance in the reality and store them. K: Will always remembered where we started. D: Search for a special day in ordinary life. K: On this special day to celebrate that I got you. A: No matter what we do, as long as we are together, it will be beautiful. S: Memorialize, the day when we meet hugged a hundred thousand times. Memorialize, the day when we are not together. K: Then discovered, we were so closed together that we couldn’t even be separated for half a day. S: Memorialize, the extra day in February. Memorialize, the day that wasn’t too exciting. K: Like happiness, no need to be calculated, just find an excuse and make it memorisable. D: Search for a special day in ordinary life. K: Through the special day I will think of you even more. D: Search for romance in the reality and store them. K: Will always remembered where we started. D: Search for a special day in ordinary life. K: On this special day to celebrate that I got you. A: No matter what we do, as long as we are together, it will be beautiful. Hope you will like the song.
