A Song a day: 31st Dec 2013 (新生活

The song that I chose for today is “新生活” by Eason Chan. This is one of my favourite songs. The direct English translation of the title is “New life”, as today is the last day of 2013, I wish that we could forget the bad things happened in 2013 (or at least accept and embrace them if you can’t forget them) and start a new happy journey in 2014.

The lyrics of the song are about forgetting our ex. The protagonist said that every letters in the alphabet, every songs, every 8th of the month, this area, this movie, the aqua colour all remind him of the time they spent together and these marks are everywhere. The old relationship is too deep; new life has to be good. What else need to be destroyed? He has already destroyed 5 thousand millions evidences and he doesn’t want any proof left. Some name, some views from restaurants, certain looks of a character from comics; all the evidences have been destroyed, all the views have been blew up, does this mean that he could finally stop thinking about that person. There were so many promises that they made together, and everywhere are marks about their past. The old relationship is too deep; new life has to be good. What else need to be destroyed? He has already destroyed 5 thousand millions evidences and he doesn’t want any proof left. So let him destroy life and reform himself. After cleaning his life, what else would be left? Even when he has destroyed 5 thousand million proofs, there is still one left in his heart. Hope you will like the song.
