9th Jan 2015 (從未試過擁有 – Deric Wan)

The song for today is “從未試過擁有” by Deric Wan. This is a reader request. Deric was once quite famous in Hong Kong through TV drama, especially for acting as a bad guy, these days he only acts in TV drama in China. The direct English translation of the title is “Never tasted the feeling of owning something”. This song was a theme song for a TVB drama.

The lyrics of the song are about the protagonist saying that he never owned love. He said he never owned, but never stop trying. You know, he always lacks freedom. He never owned, always feel empty, so tried to own everything. Never owned, happiness felt to be so far away. How to chase it, when the love before his eyes is leaving. Never owned, he only deserved to be sad. Even a bit of love, he tried to acquire it. Who is forcing him every second? Who is making him to work hard? Tears dropping onto his heart, but he still try to smile and keep the sadness in his heart. To live on, people need courage to fight, to match the rhythm of sadness. Even in the future when they talk about the past, he will not regret. Never owned anything, he lacks something in his life but he will not stop. How to get rid of this sadness? Never owned anything, life is full of tears and smiles. Turn around, and never regret. Hope you will like the song.
