The
song for today is “取消資格” by Jordan Chan. The direct English
translation of the title is “Disqualify”.
The
lyrics of the song are about the protagonist has been rejected by the girl that
he loves. He said: “Old friends would be surprise to see me like this. I
normally don’t drink any alcohol, but tonight I drink non-stop. Light grey
smoke ring covered my face, I would rather listen to old jokes than being
comforted. I said ‘I love you’, is that heavy enough? I tried to test you whether
you would accept my true love. I loved you too much and you would be scare of me
right? Why you only see him in your eyes? I don’t know. Now, what do you call
this? So you wouldn’t get married except it is with him? He got chosen and I
accepted my failure, it is not scary. The things that I scared of the most is
being disqualified but still don’t know and still tried so hard. Now what do
you call this? Am I really that annoying? All I know was to give, and now I don’t
know that I could do. I scared the most of losing so much but still didn’t
realised and make so many people hated me.” Hope you will like the song.
The
song for today is “一句到尾” by Jordan Chan. While I don’t
like Jordan too much, but I think that a number of his songs are quite touching.
He was quite famous for singing songs that were about being the protagonist
being dumped. The direct English translation of the title is “A sentence to the
end”.
The
lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said: “Have you? Have you? All
you need to answered is have you. Please just say something, as if just helping
a friend. Just answer it, have you? I believe that I am polite enough to accept
any answer. Don’t need to worry that you are giving me the rock that you are
about to through into that well. Hanging around you more than 600 days, but
have you loved me for more than 60 seconds? But I am still willing to know
during the time we had together, were you happy when I was loving you? If
loving you is a joke, then have you been happy for more than 60 seconds? Others
said that I will probably touched you one day. Treating you good worth it?
Still worth it? But you seems to wanted to ask me back whether I still need to
ask this question. Have you? Have you? All you need to say is you haven’t, then
I will leave straight away myself and I promise that I will not further bother you
my good friend. Really, have you? I feel that if this keep dragging on, I will
never be able to heal back. If admitting that you don’t love me will make you
feel guilty, then please let me tell you first. If loving you is a jock, then don’t
need to hold back your laughter. Others had said that I will be able to have
you if I keep waiting. But sadly, I am so stupid to realised that they are
being sarcastic. Still go and asked you whether you can accept me. Still need
to ask?” Hope you will like the song.
The
song for today is “失戀王” by Jordan Chan (陳小春). I
personally don’t like Jordan very much, but I got to admit his contribution. He
was active in singing in early to mid 00’s. While he didn’t sing for very long,
nor was he consider as skilful in singing, his songs and himself at one point
did got famous. He is known for his sad love songs (they are usually so sad
that the protagonist of the songs usually feel that he is a trash and not
worthy of love). These days Jordan focuses in the China TV drama market and
somewhat step into politic in China. The direct English translation of the
title of the song is “King of breakup”. A side story, I remember back at time
when this song was popular, one of my friend uses the name of this song as his
ICQ name (yes, ICQ, the first generation of instant messenger. Feel so old even
talking about it….). I didn’t know it was a song names, and I got worry about
this friend, thinking that he might just got dump by his girlfriend and feel
very sad. Then I asked whether he was ok, he told me it was just a song name,
and I felt so stupid…..
The
lyrics of the song are of his typical style, it is about the protagonist feeling
that he is a complete loser in love. He said, he had sung all the sad song
about being dumped by partner. But still, none is able to match the pain he
felt in real life. The story of getting dump are all so similar, so no wonder
he felt that every song was about him. So please don’t fight with him, let him
sing the saddest song first. If you want to challenge him for being the
saddest, then just pick up the microphone and sing a few sections. Will he sigh
for you more than for himself? Even if you got tears, but no one would be able
to be as sad as him. Opening up his wound is better than saying joke, it could entertain
everyone, and he will get a lot of applause. Every relationship, he get the
wrong person; the king of breakup. No one else would be as lucky as him. No one
could get along with him, this shows his identity. Amount a thousand of people,
there is only one person that is zero attractive. The lowest class, so that’s
why he is number one, how could you be a match to me. If you wanted to know how
disappointed he is with love, he could talk about it for a few nights, recorded
painful songs that would be enough to open a concert. The lovers in his live,
left behind many good bye, all together they could be a few thousand decibels. At
the beginning, he just wanted a consolation award, but who would have though
that his breakup would won him the winning cup. Look at him, so exciting; look
at him, he finally got the biggest award, all because no one cares about him. Every
relationship, he get the wrong person; the king of breakup. No one else would
be as lucky as him. No one could get along with him, it is hard to regret for
life. Amount a thousand of people, there is only one person that could score
lower than zero in the love compartment. Negative three, he should have been
happy and he will try harder. Enjoy.
