Album: Mat Kearney-Young Love

 
 Mat Kearney is an American singer-song writer that mainly focus on rock and folk music. Young Love is his third album and is currently sitting at 5th in the iTunes Album & Rock chart.

The hit single of Young Love is "Hey Mama". It is a song about his wife Annie, which has a very catchy tune.

Hey Mama's MV
If you aren't familiar with Mat Kearney's music, you've probably heard his previous hit from your favorite TV show like on 30 Rock, Grey's Anatomy, The Hills, Friday Night Lights, Scrubs, NCIS, and numerous other television shows. 

Young Love Track List 
1 Hey Mama
2 Ships In The Night
3 Count On Me
4 Sooner Or Later
5 Chasing The Light
6 Learning To Love Again
7 Down
8 She Got The Honey
9 Young Dumb And In Love
10 Rochester

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. 

Be sure to listen to this wonderful album full of stories that you might relate to!

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
