28th May 2016 (女神 – Joyce Cheng)

The song for today is “女神” by Joyce Cheng. This is Joyce’s latest song and it is also a very popular song. The direct English translation of the title is “Goddess”.

The lyrics of the song are about self-esteem, and how not to diminish your value by the comment of others. She said: “Gazing, gazing up, who is as elegant as you, walking up to the stage. The judge panel, are full of bad mood. Gaze, welcome to gaze. The sceptre is already glowing in your hand. Why need him to admire your goods? The standard judgement of beauty is clashing with you. Saying that you haven’t pass the standard of common eyes. You are naturally shining, didn’t lie. Why need the general public to forgive and lowering your self-esteem? Don’t lower your head, as the aureole will fall down. You are a goddess, don’t need to decolour yourself for the general public. No need to compromise, as prestige will be broken. You are a goddess, don’t let the cheap makeup bring down your value. You are free, facing the big ocean. This beauty contest is a very small stage and you are full of love. The frog at the bottom of the well (this is a Chinese idiom, used to refer to people who only know so little yet think that they know it all. Just like a frog at the bottom of the well, all it sees is the tiny patch of sky and it thinks that’s the whole world), treat it like a weird disease. There will also be people that walk by, give you a strange look. The most painful is the one that main to be accompanying you, if he can’t change, then stop going out with him. Before you lowered yourself, wishing to find your true love. At the end, you don’t care anymore, decided to leave the rest behind. Don’t lower your head, as the aureole will fall down. You are a goddess, don’t let go of the sharp knife in your hand. Don’t make a full of yourself, as the tenderness will arrive at the end. You are a goddess, elegantly wipe out the lament. Don’t lower yourself to a stage that you need to exile to the sea of love. He is only a small stage, you deserve to have big love. Gazing, gazing up, who is as elegant as you and me, walking up to the stage. The judge panel he is in a bad mood. Gaze, welcome to gaze. If you got tired, let say it with me, even if human look down at me, I still look great.” Hope you will like the song.

11th Sep 2015 (忘記的理由 – Joyce Cheng/給我一個理由忘記 – A-Lin)

The song for today is “忘記的理由” by Joyce Cheng. This is the Cantonese cover version of A-lin’s “給我一個理由忘記”. I personally really like Joyce’s version, I often loop it many times. The direct English translation of the title is “The reason to forget”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said: “It is a sunny day, but why there is rain. The past is like smoke, but ending developed a new direction. Love moved after the relationship, but this heart beat remain fresh. Get together then break up again, why after arguing for so many times we still want to be together? Come and go hurt people. Could I be happy alone? Merry-go-round, still understand that I still love him. There are a million of reasons to forget, but why I still haven’t let go? If when I leave, he tried to make me stay, why back then we broke up? There is an exit close by, the boat that supposed to save me, but why is it so sad. Tears are falling back and I couldn’t open my mouth, I have enough. It is a sunny day, but why it is so hard? Singing love song, but why that tear is so real. Celebrating for friend’s birthday, create the atmosphere. Drinking happily, even though we laugh together, my mood still drop. Come and go hurt people. Could I be happy alone?I am really scared, to admit that I still love him. There are a million of reasons to forget, but why I still haven’t let go? If when I leave, he tried to make me stay, why back then we broke up? There is an exit close by, the boat that supposed to save me, but why is it so sad. Tears are falling back and I couldn’t open my mouth, I have enough. There is no need to have a reason to forget, why do I still search for an excuse? Smile and wish that I could search for a reason, time will sand away the wound. After the pain, let me feel ashamed. Loved like a thief, never cared about my feeling. Even I am free, but the snow is already building up. Keep walking”. Hope you will like the song. As usual, I have also linked to the original version of the song.

11th Jun 2015 (知錯 – Joyce Cheng)

The song for today is “知錯” by Joyce Cheng. This song was from 2013, the official English translation of the title is “So wrong”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said: “Count again, how many fall for you? Stayed back, I can only blamed myself for being too shy and lazy. Found self-esteemed, you loved the feeling of being loved, audiences are already full. Kissed to a point that you wanted to kiss the next person. I made half a mistake and I already know that I made a mistake. Returned back, to the start when we were just good friends. So calm, like a friend that analysed and helped you, then applaud for you for winning. I can afford to be dumb, the three minute niceness is enough for me to think back something. I can leave, if I expressed my feeling then trouble would come. Who knows that we spent so much time together, but you never cared. I can hide, the message in the mobile could be used to show off for what? Hard to think that after so many event and trust, and you still don’t love me. Really I already carried too much. Embarrassed, I know that no matter how bad I feel I still need to take care of the aftermath. So down, there are so many in the world that doesn’t understand what I am talking about. Every moment that I treated you could touch every person in the city. But sadly, you are like a stone, didn’t even feel anything. Sadly, even when I am hurt I still not dare to admit it. So helpless and end up with nothing.  The three minute niceness is enough for me to think back something. I can leave, if I expressed my feeling then trouble would come. Who knows that we spent so much time together, but you never cared. I can hide, the message in the mobile could be used to show off for what? Hard to think that after so many event and trust, and you still don’t love me. Really I already carried too much. Embarrassed, I know that no matter how bad I feel I still need to take care of the aftermath. So down, there are no one that understand me in the world and I hate myself.” Hope you will like the song.

3rd Jun 2015 (失戀 – Joyce Cheng)

The song  for today is “失戀” by Joyce Cheng. I only recently listened to this song despite that it is from 2013. I quite like the melody, and to be honest, I think Joyce sing this song quite well, but due to her childhood image many people prejudged her singing skill based on her looks and image, which is rather sad. The direct English translation of the title is “Lovelorn”.

The lyrics of the song are about lovelorn of cause. The protagonist said: “Being passive, is my explanation. It is hard to use my own tactic to stop all rebutting. In love, each of us got our own cards. No wonder I couldn’t see it through winning or losing, as I doesn’t know how to take the opportunities. Being passive would be like myself, being killed in seconds. Shapeless is the assassin, so accident couldn’t be predicted. The moment when love dies, you got away to avoid all the troubles and at the same time make me look bad. I give up being strong, showing the forced eye sight. I couldn’t understand why I have been forced to become lovelorn. The most detailed love, but at the end being dumped by the one that I loved the most. This type of lovelorn, the pain will last forever. Too passive is my explanation. It is hard to use my own tactic to stop all rebutting. In love, each of us got our own cards. I could only blame myself for not being able to for you, so couldn’t catch the opportunities for the winning hit. Painful, like my heart have been murdered in a seconded. Fainted when I was crying, accident couldn’t be predicted. The moment when love dies, you got away to avoid all the troubles and you have completed destroyed the happy moments. Uncontrollably I have to give up being strong, and cry for a few moments. Reason is that I couldn’t understand why I have been forced to be lovelorn. In the past, it was the most detailed love, but at the end being dumped by the one that I loved the most. This type of lovelorn, the pain will last forever. After being forced to be lovelorn, I know that I have been tricked.” Hope you will like the song.

2nd Feb 2013 (有故事的人 – Joyce Cheng)

The song that I chose for today is “有故事的人” by Joyce Cheng. I personally quite this song, but sadly, many people still prejudge Joyce’s singing skill and so this song wasn’t as popular as it should have been. Joyce was very fat when she was young, and because she is the daughter of two famous celebrities, everyone knows how she looks when she was young. Because she stays like that for very long time, so that image has imprinted in many people heads. I was one of these people, so I never listen to Joyce’s songs until one day I heard this song on the radio, and I asked who’s this. Once I found out it was Joyce, I was shock, but I also realised that I have been prejudging her. Since then I looked forward to her new album. Anyways, back to the song, the English translation of the title is “A person with a story”.

The lyrics of the song are about two people, both have been deeply hurt by their love one. They wanted to have a relationship, but every time they get close to each other, it was like they have touched each other wounds. The protagonist try to talk herself out of this wound by say who in this world haven’t been hurt by love, no one is as clean as a brand new paper. But it didn’t work, and they just never be able to start. Hope you will like the song.

15th Aug 2012 (配角 – Joyce Cheng)

Today’s song is “配角” by Joyce Cheng. Joyce is the daughter of Adam Cheng and Lydia Shum, both are famous star, especially in the 80’s and 90’s. Because both of her parents are stars, she show up on TV very often when she was young. Many people laugh at her because she was very fat, so many people don’t have a good impression on her. In 00’s she decided to lose weight and she was quite successful at that. Not long after her mother passed away, she started her music career. Many people still laugh at her because her fatty image had been imprinted in people head. Because of that image, her music has been ignored by many, as people didn’t even border listening to it. To be honest, I felt sorry for her, she actually sings quite well and her song is quite good as well (at least better than many second/third tire singers). So that is partly the reason why I selected her song today, I hope you will at least listen to it once before you decide whether this song is good or bad. The direct English translation of the title is “Supporting actor”.

The lyrics of this song are about love. It basically talks about how the protagonist love this guy but she never can be his girlfriend because there is always someone else there that play a better ‘role’ than her and picked up the main role to become the girlfriend. So all she wish for is that she will keep playing this role and hope that one day they can be together. I hope you will enjoy this song.
