Woah, 2 song translations in a day! I like BY2's 'Lovin' You' enough to spend time translating it but frankly the lyrics are pretty simple I got it done in a jiffy. This song however, with Xiao Han as the lyricist, is much more poetical i.e. my translation does not do it justice but still hope to share this beautiful song with those who do not ( Read more... )

Yes, I'm still alive but am emotionally spent after CLAMP stabbed my heart (again) with Seishirou/Subaru. Recovering a little now with help from crack/AU fanfics where it's rainbows and butterflies and everyone stays alive ( Read more... )

他的歌会让我想流泪。

我当爱是福报
你当爱是乞讨
无所谓跟谁要

Have the main couple share a bed for whatever reason and they will usually end up in each other's arms by morning. Cliché perhaps but you must admit it's cute and Wei Xiang/Yi Jie are so adorable together. Yi Jie's ex-boyfriend just showed up in ep36 and I'm dreading the inevitable angst that will follow.

I love the sub theme song 我不願讓你一個人(I'm ( Read more... )

While I do enjoy listening to most of S.H.E's songs, Hebe's solo stuff have a lot more depth and variety as compared to what S.H.E churns out and I'm happy that her latest album has maintained the standard. The Chinese lyrics to this song are beautiful in a dark way but my translation came out kinda crappy. D:

My current song addiction. The MV is super low buget with the girls looking emo on set in fake!rain and it looks like something they shot during a break for their 'Isn't It' MV. Still, I've always enjoyed By2's ballads even though their fast numbers are usually too inane for my fancy and their latest offerings have also earned a spot on my playlist ( Read more... )

The lyrics, the melody, the PV, Yasu's voice ... all so seductive.

( Acid Black Cherry - Butterfly )

我没有很热烈地追看《我可能不会爱你》，只是偶尔想起就看看视频。它淡淡地、平实地述说李大仁和程又青的故事，却总能勾起我许多的情绪与回忆。又青从包包的lining里搜出一堆东西的那段我笑了。我的钥匙就常常消失在包的这个‘黑洞’里，相信许多女生也有相同经验，我却是第一次在荧幕上看到。

我年轻几岁的时候也曾想过，既然要承受失去的痛苦，是不是不曾拥有会更好呢? 现在却觉得，曾经拥有，至少它在你人生留下痕迹。如果因为害怕而拒绝，那你的人生也只有空白。哈，我也害怕追赶着我的年纪，不过现在成熟一点点也确实不是坏事。

《我可能不会爱你》会让我联想到陈绮贞的歌。没有华丽的辞藻，每一字每一句却写到我心里去。

I adore 'In Time With You' so much. It's a beautiful, ( Read more... )

I think Faye Wong sang this song first but I'm smitten with Anthony Wong's version (the link in my previous post will bring you to the Monga fanmade MV with the song). Would like to share this song with non Chinese/Cantonese speaking friends, so I translated the lyrics into English, which of course takes away much of the beauty in the word choice ( Read more... )
