A Song a day: 23rd Jun 2013 (明日之後

Monday, June 24, 2013

The song that I chose for today is “明日之後” by Andy Hui. This song came out in 2004, it was the time when Andy was popular, but it was also a time that I dislike him the most. I didn’t like his image back then. But this song is one was an exception. The direct English translation of the title is “The day after tomorrow”.

The lyrics of the song are about facing difficult. It starts off with the protagonist saying that his long winning was just a dream, and time can’t be stop. Today, he felt that his dream had been broken. After tonight, he understands that there is a limit to luck. And luck seems to suddenly disappeared, and he doesn’t know what to do, he felt that no one could help him. He felt bitterness and left out as he lost. But when he was so upset, she appeared and gave him the energy to move on. He still feels bitter, but he doesn’t feel lonely. When there is no one clapping for him, he knows that she will cheer for him. He knows that the road forward would be dangerous without his luck, but he will keep moving forward. If it is difficult to go forward, then he will make a left turn, as she told him that one day he will reach the finish line. Perhaps his effort would be wasted, but he thinks that it is worse for him to hear her being disappointed. Standing next to her, he felt that he is a kid. Tonight, she is not in the audience clapping for him, but he knows that she will cheer for him from where she is. Even when the sky fall, he knows that she will give him strength, so no matter how difficult tomorrow would be, he knows that he will manage it. Hope you will like the song.
