15th Jun 2016 (命運的意外 – Hubert Wu)

The song foe today is “命運的意外” by Hubert Wu. This is a reader request. This song is the theme song of a TVB drama that is still on air at the moment. The direct English translation of the title is “Fate’s accident”.

The lyrics for the song are about life and fate. It said: “The plot and the route, have their own cover. Who would understand that there isn’t any real accident. Who is the person behind the plot. No matter I go forward or backward, fate is still there. Can win the race, but life is helpless. Who never taken the burden of loved one past away. Breaking the future, as I am no longer dare to love. Rather close my eyes and not run away to avoid accident. Who is trying to change history in the fate. Dreamed to overcome the big challenge. Who could see the future; how to be in love. If there is a person that couldn’t be replaced. If our fate only cross path once, then letting go or holding hands would make no difference. Passes by or returning, how many of these were wrong love. If it is fixed, how can it be changed. No need to be surprise. Being able to meet up with you once more and once again be in love. Who would understand how many problems I have overcome. Who is plotting our love behind our back? Then letting it go free and just looking forward to it. Who can actually find true love by fate? More disappearing era. Who could see the future; how to be in love. If there is a person that couldn’t be replaced. If our fate only cross path once, then letting go or holding hands would make no difference. Passes by or returning, how many of these were wrong love. If it is fixed, how can it be changed. No need to be surprise.” Hope you will like the song.

12th Jun 2016 (我不完美 – Robynn & Kendy)

The song for today is “我不完美” by Robynn & Kendy. This is a reader request. The direct English transition of the title is “I am not perfect”.

The lyrics of the song are about facing disappointment. It said: “Perhaps this annoying thing will be short lived, perhaps by tomorrow it will be forgotten. Perhaps I can face everything, but the knot in my heart can’t be untied. I still know how to smile, and I can still act out to be tough. Understand that time passed is good. But I know, I am not, I am not perfect. I admit that I sometime will be painful, will be tired. Sometime I couldn’t hold my tears. I am not, I am not perfect. I admit that I don’t love the truth or lies of this world. I can only remain myself not to care, not to care. Perhaps the world could hear me sing out loud. Perhaps sometime I think of her hug. Ther is still the sky, he will listen to my prayer, God will understand. I am not, I am not perfect. I admit that I don’t love the truth or lies of this world. I can only remain myself that someone will understand you. Sadly, I am not perfect. I admit that on the outside I am tough, but I have a low self-esteem, not allowing the world to see me cry. I am not, I am not perfect. I admit that I don’t love the truth or lies of the world. I can only take a deep breath. Used all my strength, just to say it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.” Hope you will like the song.

10th Jun 2016 (熊貓 – Fred Cheng)

The song for today is “熊貓” by Fred Cheng. This is a reader request. The direct English translation of the title is “Panda”.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said: “Why when the pair of lover were so happy yet still have to be separated? Still thinking of the past, waiting for you just like a Panda. Regardless of whether it is sunny or rainy day, I will stay at the same old place, all for you, just because I am worry that one day when you return we couldn’t hug. Panda will be single minded to the end, regardless of how sad it is. Never change taste, but still couldn’t get to you. Too simple minded to play this fighting game and never could wait for someone to save its life. Panda only wait for the diamond anniversary, never thought of surprises. Who could seriously accept this extinct sad beauty. Regardless of where it stay, it still dream of you. Still day by day, haven’t counted the days yet. Whether it is ten months or ten years, panda still wait for you. Regardless of whether it is sunny or rainy day, it will stay at the same old place. If you come back, it worries that it couldn’t hook up your memories. Panda will be single minded to the end, regardless of how sad it is. Never change taste, but still couldn’t get to you. Too simple minded to play this fighting game. Sadly, no one will remember it. Panda only wait for the diamond anniversary, never wished for new surprises. Who could seriously accepted this extinct happiness. Regardless of where it stays, it will still wait for you.” Hope you will enjoy the song.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said: “Until last night, I always found that predicting the weather is hard.

Do you know that the temperature will be two hundred degrees? So warm that it will explode just like my body. Tonight, even those eyeball could write words. Then it will defiantly write a love poem, using love as verbs. If you understand, then the temperature from this moment will rise easily. If you are willing to hug me tight, and uses love in place of words. The world will have temperature at two hundred degrees, so warm that it is about to explode when you hugged me.

Tonight we will love until it exploded. Tonight it will be so warm that it will exploded. No need to talk. Tonight it will be so warm that it will exploded.

I don’t.” Hope you will like the song. As usual, I have also linked the original.

5th Jun 2016 (偏偏 – Amanda Lee)

The song foe today is “偏偏” by Amanda Lee. This is one of Amanda’s classic. The English translation of the title is “But but”, the phase in Chinese means that something happened contrary to what one would have expected.

The lyrics of the song are about love. The protagonist said: “Using my bravery, I put on the makeup, carefully preparing to get into the field of love. With all my effort, I put on the night dress, wishing that I could happily keep you with me tonight. Watching your changes in movement. Paying attention to you when you moved across, the changes in slow motion. Listening to your tone of voice when you laugh, the miracle is about to begin. You are right in front of me, but you ignored the challenges from my eyes. You act normal, but never step forward to accept my attracted eyesight. Rushing to dodged to the new location, gazing at your side, your back and your front. My rushing thought started to explored, like I am in the sea, trying to search for the cost line. Paying attention to you when you moved across, the changes in slow motion. Listening to your tone of voice when you laugh, the miracle is about to begin. You are right in front of me, but you ignored the challenges from my eyes. You act normal, but too lazy to connect with my eyesight.” Hope you will like the song.

3rd Jun 2016 (時代 – Leo Ku)

The song for today is “時代” by Leo Ku. The direct English translation of the title is “Era”

The lyrics of the song are about growing up. The protagonist said: “Going through troubles together make my shoulder hurts. But without someone becoming my burden make my heart even more painful. Someone worry so much about saying goodbye to spring’s win that they give up going through winter. Every night there are tons of news. Who is the one that turn the bright future to a bad dream. Felt that regardless of whether there is any sickness the face of sickness is still there. Why being forced to be happy? This forcing make me even more sad. Why before breathing, you already out of breath. Wind and rain are fast, times rushed. Every bit of the time brings a head full of sweat. Who is so lazy to wipe them dry? The dirt that needed to be clean still haven’t been cleaned. Getting into the dream, all the sheep turn into wolfs. No need to say, people need to go through something to become stronger. A moment of unhappiness make you down. Getting disappointed for disappointment. The heart that care so much, how to let go? The pair of couple on the ha[[y road, no matter how tired they still stuck in work. Someone worry so much about losing job that they couldn’t sleep. Who dare not to work hard? Who is worry because they couldn’t decide whether they could settle down or not. Walked too slow and worry that I will get washed away. Wind and rain are fast, times rushed. Every bit of the time brings a head full of sweat. Who is so lazy to wipe them dry? The dirt that needed to be clean still haven’t been cleaned. Getting into the dream, all the sheep turn into wolfs. Not going to say any more, people need to go through something to become stronger. Let the shadows pressed down, as I will still be happy. Era let the sky fall, so you will treasure the sun even more.” Hope you will like the song.

1st Jun 2016 (雙面人 – Ekin Cheng)

The song for today is “雙面人” by Ekin Cheng. This was a theme song of a TV drama. It is one of my favourite TV drama theme song. I quite like the drama. It was about a guy who have an accident and have an amnesia. Slowly overtime time he discovered the truth of the accident. The direct English translation of the title is “Two face” (The TV drama’s English title is “Face to face”.)

The lyrics of the song are about a person that can’t tell whether the things that he sees are true or his imagination. He said: “Emotions and facial expression couldn’t synchronise, jumping between movies, the me in the movies feel confuse. Is it the excitement from the outside or the mystery from the inside of the mask? Covering the wound can be thought of as a kind of beauty. Without memories, it is hard to tell whether there is an identity in my palm. Which one is my heart, is a complex question. It is like a dream, lack the realises. Wish that someday I can face my true heart. Time flies and I could act the way that I wished. Start from the beginning again to extend my life. Then I will learn to not change this face. Smile on the outside and sadness in the inside, I listen to my own breath. Listen all the way until I aged. Is it the excitement from the outside or the mystery from the inside of the mask? Covering the wound can be thought of as a kind of beauty. Without memories, it is hard to tell whether there is an identity in my palm. Which one is my heart, is a complex question. It is like a dream, lack the realises. Wish that someday I can face my true heart. Time flies and I could act the way that I wished. Start from the beginning again to extend my life. Then I will learn to not change this face.” Hope you will like this song.
