It is songs like this that make me want to learn Cantonese...

First heard this song in a KTV pub near my house. Like it damn much. Too bad I don't know how to speak cantonese properly, neither do I have anyone I know to sing this song with. Crap...



From my humble understanding, the song evolves around two persons. Both, in their own way, commited and all-sacrificing towards love. Both believing and holding on firmly to their choices. In a twist of fate, love remains elusive...

Special thanks to BQ for looking up this song for me.

Cheers! Happy Halloween!

A tribute to Jay

In Jay's new album, there is a personal favorite song that touched me deep within. Maybe some of you may think that many aspects about the song, even the MTV, strike a cord with you, that is exactly the beauty of it. The beauty of uniqueness within that is similar in many way. The beauty of once before is in it, in that song, in that verse, sang out loud.

Although my dear friends (BQ & CL) usurped my intention by posting that particular MTV on their blogs way before I did because I lazy mah, I am nonetheless going to assert my decision of long ago and also because I'm irritating.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: 退后

天空灰的像哭过
离开你以后
并没有更自由

酸酸的空气
守住我们的距离
一幕醉心的结局
像呼吸般无法停息

抽屉泛黄的日记
找到了回忆
那笑容是傻气

你我的过去
被深深真的忘记
缺氧过后的爱情
存心的眼泪是多余

我知道你我都没有错
只是忘了怎么退后
信誓旦旦给的承诺
全被时间扑了空
我知道我们都没有错
只是放手比较好过
最美的爱情回忆里带去

你有想爱的人吗﹖
那你应该也有想恨的人吧。
有时候爱与恨也只不过是一张薄纸的距离而已。

爱情往往无法分辨对错﹐
是谁不够成熟﹐
又是谁太过天真﹐
是谁不够细心﹐
又是谁付出太多﹐
是谁绑得太紧﹐
又是谁毫不在乎﹐
是谁想得太多﹐
又是谁想走得太快﹐
是谁哭得心碎﹐
又是谁不能体会简单爱的幸福。

爱情的太多太多﹐
只能用一生去发现去体会。
可是爱情的一错再错﹐
又有谁去谅解去包容﹖

感情的一路上﹐
在人来人去的故事里﹐
谁能要谁留下﹐
谁又能无愧於谁﹖

没有现在的你也没有从前的她﹐
我没法了解真心真义是什麽。
