20th May 2016 (好心好報 – Alex Fong and Stephy Tang)

The song for today is “好心好報” by Alex Fong and Stephy Tang. This is a reader request. The direct English translation of the title is “Please breakup”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. As this is a duet, I will represent Alex’s line by “A:”, Stephy’s line by “S:” and when they sing together “T:”. “A: Worked so hard for you, but couldn’t gain any point. You decided to be with him from now on. He doesn’t know how to take care of you, so I am willing to fill in. S: I decided to love him, so wish me happy. You understand me the most, so you know that I will stay behind even it is painful. I am not scare of getting hurt, I am willing to wait for him. A: Still looking at you. S: Will he be touch? Or had he ran off already? A: Seeing you walking on the edge of the cliff, but he just left you there only looking after himself. S: I am used to loving him, so no matter what you do, I am still myself at the cliff, there is no way back. A: Treating you well, no one care about me treating people well, no one appreciate me, all because you are used to his style. Never loved me, I can see that clearly. No need to have your love, I can be just on the side, all wishes to be for your good. S: He, is always worse than you, but I still love him. Looked down to listen to his lies again. Just wishes that he says he loves me, but why I still haven’t got it. Perhaps this second is not the right second yet. A: Perhaps it is sins, let me listen to your pain. You said it is painful is better than breaking up. S: I said so many actresses had gone through the pain. A: The situation got worse. S: Perhaps he could achieve it, perhaps he will achieve it. A:   You believe that someday he will be able to do it, able to do it all. T: I am like you, don’t know how to talk you out of it, would rather sacrificed than to take a step back. A: Treating you well, no one care about me treating people well, no one appreciate me, all because you are used to his style. Never loved me, I can see that clearly. No need to have your love, I can be just on the side, all wishes to be for your good. S: He, is always worse than you, but I still love him. Looked down to listen to his lies again. I know that you love me but I pretend that I don’t. Being a nice person, forgive me that I couldn’t be one. A: You treated me like a best friend, I know. But I treated you as the rest of my life. S: Both of us couldn’t control ourselves. T: No matter how good we are, what we are waiting for will never arrive. A: How to achieve this, no one will treasure me. So I got to do things his ways. Never kissed, I remembered. No need to get it, just need to be on the side, wishing that it is best for you. S: Good, I always know that you are good. Why he is not good enough?  But when he come back, I will hug with him again. A: not good enough, I am not good enough. T: Still believe that my good wills will bring me good ending. So perhaps I will find out someday.” Hope you will like the song.

30th Jun 2015 (我的最愛 – Alex Fong and Stephy Tang)

The song for today is “我的最愛” by Alex Fong and Stephy Tang. This song is a reader request. The English translation of the title is “My dearest”.

The lyrics of the song are about the pair of couple separated but felt that they are still connected. Since this is a duet, I will represent Alex’s line by “A:”, Stephy’s line by “S:” and together as “T:”. A: Seeing you the first time after we separated. S: seeing you again and relearn your voice. A: too used to seeing your left smiley face. S: Almost touched your shoulder to contact the left over in your heart. A: We are separated, but why it felt that we couldn’t walk away and still wanted to be like before. S: Or really scare of completely removing from your love, so I returned after I run away. A: Not sure I should S: Could no longer be close to you physically, but I still care about you deep in my heart. A: Always willing to cry for you, to manage the tears. S: If my two backup are enough, even if I let go that day A: my two legs are like as if they haven’t learn to walk. T: still stay in this relationship. A: Don’t know how to S: retreat . A: All the old memories, this moment got refreshed. S: Picking up the old love perhaps is too ridiculous. A: Not enough luck, S: Can’t hold hands. T: Can count as unique for this life. Treating you too well wouldn’t make me tired. A: If I can avoid me change in heartbeat. S: Your voice still surround me. A: Used to be caring and it will not be change.  S: Without good bye, I wouldn’t realise that my love to you have spread already. T: No matter how good we treated each other, we will not be together. Hope you will like the song.

7th Sep 2014 (親朋勿友 – Stephy Tang and Theresa Fu/Stephy Tang)

The song for today is “親朋勿友” by Stephy Tang and Theresa Fu. This song was released when the two were still in the singing called Cookies. This song is a reader request. Personally I am not a big fan of Stephy and Teresa, but typically, their duets (either between themselves, or one of them with another person) are quite good and popular. The direct English translation of the title is “Close friend, not friend”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The line sung by Stephy will be shown by “S:”, Theresa by “T:” and when they sing together “B:”. S: Me and him become friend once again, so it is alright to meet up with him. I trusted her, but I couldn’t believe that the relationship has ended. T: I am glade that we finally got the chance to meet again. If you haven’t fallen in love with him then please don’t have dinner. If I haven’t gone crazy yet, I guess I will soon. S: Why don’t you leave with him but waited for me to say that we had broken up and see your ‘best friend’. Even blind people could see that you two have something going on, so how could I compared to you? T: So who tried to separated you tow? I asked myself that I am able to not see him again, but every night there is voice messages left on my mobile. B: If I haven’t found out, you wouldn’t cut him off. T: Me and him are just friends, I thought we had sorted this out yesterday. I don’t love him, we could each hold an ice pole and eat it in winter. S: If we will be separated, we will be separated. But please don’t act lite you don’t care at all. Even if I haven’t given up, I will have to give up. T: Why don’t you leave with him but waited for me to say that we had broken up and see your ‘best friend’. Even blind people could see that you two have something going on, so how could I compared to you? S: So who tried to separated you tow? I asked myself that I am able to not see him again, but every night there is voice messages left on my mobile. B: If I haven’t found out, you wouldn’t cut him off. T: Please give me back justice, as I already got bad luck in love. S: If you still treat me as a good friend, could you stop for me now? B: Why don’t you leave with him but waited for me to say that we had broken up and see your ‘best friend’. Even blind people could see that you two have something going on, so how could I compared to you? So who tried to separated you tow? I asked myself that I am able to not see him again, but every night there is voice messages left on my mobile. If I haven’t found out, you wouldn’t cut him off. S: I see that he haven’t committed anything bad yet, so why will I destroy your relationship? Not loving him, but why do I feel that even my lips feel ashamed. T: If you have separated with him, then why am I jealous? If we are such a good friend and he is irreplaceable. B: Then I wouldn’t stop you.

There is also a Stephy solo version of this song, the lyrics are slightly different. I have also linked to that for comparison. Hope you will enjoy the song.

14th Apr 2013 (電燈膽 – Stephy Tang)

The song that I chose for today is “電燈膽” by Stephy Tang. Stephy was part of a group of nine girls, called “Cookies”. They made a few albums, but I think the group size was too large, and people can’t quite remember who is who, so the group later on reduced its size to 4. The smaller group was call “mini Cookies” and Stephy was still part of it. Though this group didn’t last long and eventually the four of them started their solo performance. Personally, I don’t like Stephy too much, but this song is one of the few that I quite enjoy. The direct English translation of the title is “Light bulb”.

Before we talk about the lyrics, for those that are not familiar with Chinese (I guess I should be more specific, so Cantonese), the phrase “電燈膽” could also be used to describe people that stick around with couple. For example, if you are going out with your sister and her boyfriend, then you are acting as “light bulb”. But note that this phase is not too polite, and typically use in the negative sense, so in that scenario, you will be called “light bulb” when one of they found that your existent is disrupting them. Anyway, back to the song, the lyrics are exactly about the above used of the phase. It start off telling us that the protagonist said that she can’t publicly say that she is jealous, so she got to learn to accept her fate.  During holiday, the three of them went out together, while their conservation sounds like it was warm, but she actually feel very cold as she feel that she is isolated. She thought about their past, it was her who accidentally introduced them to each other, and now it is her that feel left out. She is their closest friend, but when she see them kiss, she don’t know whether she should feel happy that they love each other so much or feel sad as she is not the one kissing with the boy. She tried to hide from them as she is sick of being a “light bulb”, and she felt great pain, but yet she is not used to being alone. So perhaps she should admit that maybe she purposely act as a “light bulb”, just so that one day when they broke up, she could easily go in and replaces her friend to become his girlfriend. She will never tell anyone why she still hangs around with them. She wonders if one day they broke up, would he choose her to be his girlfriend. Hope you will like the song.
