been jogging for 5 days this week!! woohooo. ganbatte!! urgh..maybe it's the thought that i'll be pigging out on my SA trip soon hence the motivation to relieve abit of that guilt.
caught 超级星光 just now and I was totally mesmerized by 范文凱 who sang 心動. He sang it with so much Fiiii lling...that i could feel his voice tugging at my heart strings. I can see him breezing into the finals. One of the best male vocalist I've seen who could bring out the emotions of this song so perfectly.
You'll have to fast fwd to the middle part of the video, after the gal, to catch his portion:
sorry..this video can't be embedded. pls visit youtube!

K the afternoon away with ahmad and maria. me and maria finally found our first duet. BSB..I'll never break your heart. haha... hoh duo fiiiiii lling....
we were just chatting about how chinese songs can depict emotions and stories so much better than english songs. lyrically i mean. Not to mention great lyricist Fang Wen Shan's works. I'm totally dumbfounded by his compositions.
Anyways, we were singing Yang Cong by Yang Zong Wei and concluded that it's so visual you can virtually imagine the chorus happening to you when you are going through a break up or the desperate wish of hoping that your loved ones know exactly how you feel.
The english translation means to peel your heart off like how you're peeling an onion, you'll feel like crying as you peel deeper into the core of the onion, unveiling my secret and my feelings about you. It's like so bloody painful and it suits Oscar's perpetual painful expression as well. OMG! ashin is a genius la.
“如果你愿意一层一层地拨剥开我的心，
你会发现你会讶异 你是我最压抑最深处的秘密
如果你愿意一层一层一层的剥开我的心
你会鼻酸 你会流泪 只要你能听到我看到我的全心全意”
Comparatively...maybe not a very good comparison but can't think of a good song off hand now, is my recent favourite Always Be my Baby by Mariah Carey. Though I have to admit that I LOVE david cook's version, but really, the lyrics are too cheezy for words. You know what I mean.
"You'll always be a part of me I'm part of you indefinitely Boy don't you know you can't escape me Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby And we'll linger on Time can't erase a feeling this strong No way you're ever gonna shake me Oh darling, cause you'll always be my baby"
It's usually the singer who imparts life to the boring words. Have to say it's commendable.
