信樂團- 回不去了

I have waited for them to have a new album and finally after forever, they got out their new album. 就是唯一on October. When 信樂團 got a new vocal, I kind of compare him with 信 but after listening him in the band's new album, my perspective changed. His singing is much softer than the original one but still give off a great rocker voice. I think that voice represent the band a lot. They have been through a lot since losing 信 but their passion for music still lives inside them. 

With this new vocal Jason, the band raise up again producing great 信樂團 style rock music! 

Out of all the song from the band's new album, I really like 回不去了. It said that there are lots of things that we cannot go back even if we want to change it. With Jason's voice, it brings out the sadness even more in the song! I almost cried when I first heard it.

回不去了

我站在冷風中的路口　忍不住回頭　要你放手
放開手就不要再想我　別讓我看見　你的不捨
有個聲音不斷的牽扯　我知道那是你的溫柔
請你不要再挽留　留下來卻無路可走
我們的愛情回不去了　回不去了　為何你還不放手
我們的青春回不去了　回不去了　已經斷了亂了算了

Oh～Oh～不要再愛我

最遠的路是離家越久　回家那條路　就越難走
想家的情歌該唱哪首　才能讓眼淚　痛快的流
有個聲音不斷的顫抖　你知道那是我的傷口
傷到最深的時候　也是我最痛的沈默

我們的擁抱回不去了　回不去了　為何你還不放手
我們的夢想回不去了　回不去了　已經斷了亂了算了

Oh～Oh～不要再愛我

請就讓我離開　請就讓我離開這裡　請就讓我離開
讓我一個人　走向這不歸路

我們的眼淚回不去了　回不去了　為何你還不放手
我們的承諾回不去了　回不去了　為何你還不放手
我們的家園回不去了　回不去了　為何你還不放手
我們的一切回不去了　回不去了　請你放手放手放手

Oh～Oh～不要再愛我　不要再愛我  

Have you done anything that you regret and want to go back?

鄭秀文 - 親密關係

 

 親密關係 is a song I haven't listen for quite a while. The first time I listen to this song was back middle school. I did not have any feeling at all after listening because I don't understand the meaning of the lyric. 

That time, I was too little to understand what love really is. It's not like I totally understand what the word "Love" is now but the understanding now is much better than almost 10 years ago. 

I slowly understand what kind of relationship I want after experiencing multiple unsuccessful one. I always thought that I need the kind which have to be together 24/7. I thought that by being that way, I could get more love and more attention from the one I'm dating but it doesn't turn out that way. It became an annoyance which led to separation. 

When I listen to 親密關係 again a couple days ago, I finally get a clear view of what I really want. I don't want to find a soul mate at all. It's all about some kind of communication in a relationship. That communication doesn't have to be through talking but could be just a smile or an action. Maybe if you are feeling sad and suddenly receive a funny text message from him/her. It's like they have a radar somewhere that can detects your feelings. That kind of action would definitely warm your heart.

For those who doesn't know what 親密關係 mean. It literally mean "Close Relationship." 

親密關係

我嘆氣了　你都說中了　如數家珍　不多不少
每次(我)想說笑　你早已笑了　默契相通
不可干擾
為我解寂寥　一切紛擾　一經你勸勉　算了
未說的問題　咀角一牽已知曉

我跌痛了　你心也碎了　其中辛酸　彷彿抵消
我要衝線了　你心跳快了　步履彷彿都輕飄飄
愉快的心照　怎算輕佻　想起你我會暗笑
受你的照料　別人怎講亦不緊要

* HA . . .像關係親密的戀愛　HA . . .但比戀愛更精彩
WO . . .是超越表面的恩愛　HA . . .沒有別人如此相愛

我氣餒了　你的信到了原先抑鬱　輕鬆不少
 我要的戲票　你早已買了
像約好般　不准騷擾
愉快的心照　怎算輕佻
想起你我會暗笑　受你的照料　別人怎想亦不緊要

什麼都不愛　如果你不寵愛

What are you looking for in a 親密關係?

My favorite song beside his hit single "Hey Mama" is "Chasing The Light". I think it is a very meaningful song. No matter if you hit a dead-end in your life, you will always find that one tiny light that will guide you out of that darkness. I hope to find a way out of darkness now so hearing this song gives me hope once again that my dreams won't fade away. I will continue to chase it!

I love how every song has its own story. It's like listening to different story and learning different things along the way. Young Love is a great name for this album because these are some crazy things that we all once experience somewhere in out life. Even though the story might be different but it will always be the experiences that we will all remember till the day we die. No one can take it away from.

Meaning of 張智霖 - 戀上外星人

To：Unknown

The meaning of the song 戀上外星人 is talking about the love between the singer and its fans. He want to thank you all the fans who supported an "abnormal" person like him.

蘇永康-那誰

As you can see, I haven't really updated this blog for quite a while because I haven't yet found a song that I really like the previous two months. Recently, I have been listening to this song a lot and I really love the lyric. It reminds me a lot of my past memories. 

The song is called "那誰" sang by a HK singer William So(蘇永康). The direct meaning of the song name is "Who's He/she?". This song is written from a third person point of view. The third-party is telling the story of a guy after his breakup with his lover. That guy tries to do everything to forget the break up but nothing seem to work at all. After all, time can't past away those memories. No matter how many days, weeks, months, or even years have passed, a small thing can trigger back those cuts, wounds and bad memories. The third party said that the guy should just take that as one of the challenge he faced in his path of life. If the right person appears, he'll be able to love again. 

The lyricist Wyman Wong always writes beautiful lyrics that can really trigger one's heart and memories. The MV is really touching too. The actor really portrays the character really well!

William So-那誰

你和那誰那天分手
你淚痕像條綠色的銹
頑固地種在眼睛一角　直到永久　抹不走

但是浮游在　生活亂流
你那新生　你也必須接受
就算多悔咎　自責別太久

不要戀戀心裡　那個傷口

渡日月　穿山水
尚在恨　那 誰
誰曾無堅不摧
摧毀的廢墟
一早 變做　你美好新居
創疤你不挖　亦不知有過 在這裡

淚叠淚　風一吹
漸莫辨　那 誰
連重提往事也　不再絕對
她怎傷害你　講起　你沒再　吐苦水

有時你還覺得溫馨

這淚流像存在的表證

沒有恨過便更加彷似　白過半生　冷清清

像突然忘掉　尊姓大名
卻記得她　教你差點喪命
是創傷太重　或覺悟太輕
使你不懂釋放　怨懟的根性

渡日月　穿山水
尚在恨　那 誰
誰曾無堅不摧
摧毀的廢墟
一早 變做　你美好新居
創疤你不挖　亦不知有過 在這裡

淚叠淚　風一吹
漸莫辨　那 誰
連重提往事也　不再絕對
她怎傷害你　感恩　替代了那苦水

誰沒兩個致命舊愛侶
不見得 就要聽到春天也恐懼
可以不唏噓 可以不心虛
放低跨過去

渡日月 穿山水
尚在恨 那 誰
誰曾無堅不摧 摧毀的廢墟
一早 變做了 滿山青翠

敏感處不碰 便不知你葬著心碎

若舊夢 不堪追
就別問 那 誰
從何時 你學會 灑脫面對
她怎傷害你 可否就當做老天

完整你那 沒挫敗波折一生之旅

功德圓滿 方可愛下去

帶笑歸去

張國榮-追

Today is Leslie Cheung's 8 year death anniversary. Even though, he past for 8 year but he and his song will always remain in our heart.

Today's song is called 追 meaning "Chase". It is from a very famous Chinese movie called "He's a Woman, She's a Man (金枝玉葉)". 

有了你 即使平凡卻最重要 

有了你 即使沉睡了 也在笑

張國榮-追

這一生　也在進取
這分鐘　卻掛念誰
我會說　是唯獨你不可失去

好風光　似幻似虛　誰明人生樂趣
我會說　為情為愛　仍然是對

誰比你重要　成功了敗了也完全無重要
誰比你重要　狂風與暴雨都因你燃燒

一追再追　只想追趕生命裡一分一秒　
原來多麼可笑　你是真正目標
一追再追　追蹤一些生活最基本需要　
原來早不缺少　ha...
有了你　即使平凡卻最重要

好光陰　縱沒太多
一分鐘　那又如何
會與你　共同渡過　都不枉過

瘋戀多　錯誤更多　如能從新做過
我會說　願能為你　提前做錯

誰比你重要　成功了敗了也完全無重要
誰比你重要　狂風與暴雨都因你燃燒

一追再追　只想追趕生命裡一分一秒　
原來多麼可笑　你是真正目標
一追再追　追蹤一些生活最基本需要　
原來早不缺少　ha...
有了你　即使平凡卻最重要

一追再追　只想追趕生命裡一分一秒　
原來多麼可笑　你是真正目標
一追再追　追蹤一些生活最基本需要　
原來早不缺少　Oh... 只得你
會叫我彷彿人群裡最重要

有了你　即使沈睡了　也在笑 

Damien Rice-9 Crimes

Compare to "Cannonball" and "I Remember", I like the sad feeling in this song more.

I am sorry for all the things I did in the past. I cannot tell you. I will take on all the crime that I've done to myself and love you forever.

Is that alright?

Damien Rice- 9 Crimes

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I'd do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
With you?

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I'd do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
She's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you dont shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?

No...

張國榮-這些年來

I have been continuously listening to this song for the past week. The lyrics are simple but that's what makes it touching and meaningful. Simple but strong. No one can perform this song better than Leslie Cheung. He's definitely a true legend.

Thank you for everything you've done for me over these past 4 and half years. There's nothing more I can say. I Love You, Mr. L!

這些年來

投入過懷念過忘掉過
這角色要幾多有幾多
任何樣子都可　　似雪片掠過星河

陪著我同樣也明白我
你彷彿讓我找到最初
就如重新學做人　你比那過去還要多

談戀愛這些年　誰可叫我想念
而只有你可和我談昨天
經得起這世界考驗
還欣賞彼此那弱點

談戀愛許多年　留低過幾張臉
而只有你的情懷如昨天
戀愛叫我不安的感覺
全因躺於你面前　至倖免

王菀之 - 我不打算流眼淚

I love the melody and lyrics of this song. The melody is a jazzy style arrangement. Even though it's a sad but I really don't have the intention to cry. The meaning of the song name 我不打算流眼淚 means I Don't Intend To Cry.

This song is about someone knowing their ex finds another lover but the main character doesn't really care because there's no point in caring anyways. There's nothing she can do about it even though she feels sorrow inside. Whatever happens, let's hope everyone can find their own happiness



王菀之 - 我不打算流眼淚

最近好不好 看你是挺好
一樣的外套 和相同的微笑
我們多久沒見面我沒算好
可你的故事 我隱約聽到

聽說你找到愛人了
她有天使的膚色
更說我倆早認識一看到就會認得
她究竟是誰
其實並沒有所謂
難道可以有所謂
我不打算流眼淚

剛提到那天 請不要抱歉
一切不改變 不代表還留戀
只是習慣了偶爾想想從前
我已經說過 不代表留戀


聽說你找到愛人了
她有天使的膚色
更說我倆早認識一看到就會認得
她究竟是誰
其實並沒有所謂
難道可以有所謂
事與願違

既然你找到愛人了
我應該為你快樂
請你不要看穿我眼角眉梢的藍色
誰管她是誰
任你們盡情倚偎
嘗你未嘗過的嘴
但你絕不要後悔

Just The Way You Are

Today's Song Of The Day is Just They Way You Are by Aarif Li. Aarif is a Hong Kong singer/writer/actor. Aarif make some different arrangement to the original version, which was sang by Billy Joel.

This is a very romantic song since the lyric said it all. The guy does not want his lover to change anything because he loves her just the way she is. The song is not the one from Bruno Mars but rather from Billy Joel. The melody and the lyrics are totally different! I love both Aarif and Billy's version because the song is just so sweet. Billy Joel is definitely a true legend!

玉置成実 - Kanashimi No Valentine

Because you left me, I am left with no Valentines. This Japanese song is describing a girl's feelings when the one she loved left her and now she is left with no Valentines on a Valentine's Day. 


玉置成実 - 悲しみのバレンタイン 
(Kanashimi No Valentine)



Gomen to tsubuyaite
Nijindeku hitomi wo sorasa nai de

Sayonara shinjitaku nai kara
Uso da to waratte nee itsumo no you ni

You broke my heart tooku naru
Senaka ga namida de kasunde iru no
You broke my heart omoide ni (So many ways)
Kawatte yuku Valentine’s Day

Mirai he tsuduku michi
Itsuma demo issho ni itakatta naa...

Kanashimi wo norikoeraretara
Itami mo itsuka wa hoshi ni naru no?

You broke my heart ai wa mada
Fuyu no sora no shita samayou keredo
You broke my heart itoshisa ni (So many ways)
Kogoete iru Valentine’s Day

(You never know my heartbreak)
Ano hi no yakusoku sae
(why am I still in love with you?)
Yuki ni kieta hikari

You broke my heart tooku naru
Senaka ga namida de kasunde iru no
You broke my heart omoide ni
Kawatte yuku Valentine’s Day
Hitorikiri no Valentine’s Day

就算現在還堅持著當初的執著和對你的抱歉

眼淚還是不斷地從眼裡流下來，不由自主的我

說再見，一直也是我從來不會相信的事

就像平常一樣，笑著說一定是謊言來的

You broke my heart 就在當天你離我遠去 

我卻以背人垂淚來結束這一切

You broke my heart 我對你的思念

也從這天起改變了的Valentine's Day

雖然我們向著未來的道路繼續前進

但當我們一起時，何時也會變成痛苦

如果跨越了悲傷的傷痛的話

傷痛會否不知不覺變成星星一樣那麼輕

升上了夜空中呢?

You broke my heart  就算在冬天的夜空中

還存在的愛已經變成了我一個人的傍徨了

You broke my heart  在愛中的我

已經被這個冬天和你的一切凍僵了

You never know my heartbreak

就連你當初許下的成諾也一併.....

Why am I still in love with you?

已經一早化成了漫天風雪裡的一點光了

You broke my heart 就在當天你離我遠去 

我卻以背人垂淚來結束這一切

You broke my heart 我對你的思念

也從這天起改變了的 Valentine's Day

是在這冬天中，留下我一個人的Valentine's Day

Two Versions of "Time After Time" Cyndi Lauper and Eva Cassidy

Time After Time is a very classic song from the 80s. I think everyone from the 80s would remember and know this song. I came across this song a few years ago while watching a Taiwanese singing competition. That contestant sang Cyndi Lauper's version of "Time After Time". Immediately I fell in love with this song and search for it. Today while searching for this song's mv, I found another version by Eva Cassidy. This version deeply touches my heart to the point of almost crying. It is like a shock to my heart as if I can understand her feelings. The lyric brings back lots of my past memories and resemble me a bit.

Whether you like Cyndi Lauper or Eva Cassidy's version, it is how they perform the song that makes it touching.

Cyndi Lauper "Time After Time"

Eva Cassidy "Time After Time"

Lyrics

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
and think of you
caught up in circles confusion

is nothing new

Flashback 

warm nights

almost left behind
suitcases of memories,
time after

sometimes you picture me

I'm walking too far ahead
you're calling to me, I can't hear
what you've said

Then you say

go slow

I fall behind

the second hand unwinds

Chorus:
if you're lost you can look and you will find me
time after time
if you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
time after time

after my picture fades and darkness has
turned to gray
watching through windows you're wondering
if I'm OK
secrets stolen from deep inside
the drum beats out of time

chorus:
if you're lost...

you said go slow
I fall behind
the second hand unwinds

chorus:
if you're lost...
...time after time
time after time
time after time
time after time

My favorite scene from Cyndi Lauper's MV!
