Title: Sentimental Feelings...
Post by: mustfocus on December 24, 2010, 06:38:58 pm
Just finished reading an email from my lady and this song came to mind...This one is performed by Wang Lee Hom (王力宏) and Selina Jen (任家萱/from Taiwanese band S.H.E.) called 你是我心内的一首歌 (Ni Shi Wo Xin Nei De Yi Shou Ge / You are the Song in My Heart)

王力宏 Selina 你是我心内的一首歌 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqrsb3R_6dc#)
你是我心内的一首歌


And the [English] lyrics...

You're the song within my heart
A flower bloomed within
You're the song of my life
nostalgia has converged into a river

A song remembered within my heart
not just a passerby
Leaving behind a song in my life
Regardless of our ending

Really want to ask you
If you've fallen for me yet
A silence too long
Will cause me to make a careless mistake

A song remembered within my heart
Not just a passerby
Leaving behind a song in my life
Regardless of our ending

You're the song within my heart
A flower bloomed within
You're the song of my life
nostalgia has converged into a river

Really want to ask you
If you've fallen for me yet
A silence too long
Will cause me to make a careless mistake

A song remembered within my heart
Not just a passerby
Leaving behind a song in my life
Regardless of our ending

Martin: Any other songs on there?

Maybe it's because of my upcoming trip to visit my lady, but I've been dredging up some of the more sentimental songs for some reason...

some of Faye Wong's songs are not bad, pity I do not understand the lyrics but the melodies and words sound really nice and besides these are the songs Xia sings to me.

Just for you Jason... Dreamlover...by Faye Wong (At least the beat should be familiar ::))

Faye Wong "Dreamlover" Chungking Express Music Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7yez4lXjBI#)

Person in dreams,
one minute of tight embrace
a 10 minute kiss
Stranger,
How (do you) walk into (my) heart
create this thrill
I seemed to love you passionately once
with you never ever this close like now
thinking starts to exaggerate

Why suddenly invade me
come into my extremely bored dream nest
sparking a wave of shaken feelings

Person in dreams
how (I) wish (you) to be real
In my heart i'm disinhibited
Tangles in dreams
This minute i'm waiting
your ten thousand minutes kisses

I seemed to have passionately loved you before
Never before being so close to you
thinking starts to exaggerate

Why suddenly invade me
come into my extremely bored dream nest
sparking a wave of shaken feelings

Searching in dreams
one minute of tight embrace
In my heart i can't wait
Person in dreams,
this minute i'm waiting
come create thrills in (my) heart
Thrills in heart

Thanks mate she certainly knows how to sing.  Now I need to know that tune, I know it but can not think of the song that went with it, anyone help out? Xia was telling me she had a concert recently and the tickets were up to as much as $400 USD.  For that price I would want a back stage pass as well and signed merchandise.

You mean the original singers of that song?  That would be "Dreams" by The Cranberries...

When I was in high school, chinese concert tickets could go up to $100...and the kids from HK would buy multiple tickets and go with friends...  It always annoyed me because they would flaunt their wealth with the cars they drove or buying tickets like that... but that's another story.

That was a nice song. The Cranberries eah....??? I seem to remember them. I will have to play this song for another Jason. He can hear a couple notes from almost any song and tell you everything about the group that did it.

After the string of good luck our forum has been having, I thought I would offer this up... Dou Jiang You Tiao (豆漿油條 / A Perfect Match) by JJ Lin (林俊杰).  The title actually refers to soy milk (dou jiang) and a chinese "donut" (fried sticks of dough called you tiao)... a very common and popular breakfast in China...

English translation is in the youtube version...

Ok, I couldn't find a pinyin/english subbed version of this so I'll have to post a translation (not mine) separately below, but this is an OLD children's song that fit very nicely with Mother's day.  It's called 世上只有妈妈好 Shi Shang Zhi You Ma Ma Hao (Mother is the Best)

Crystal Ong 王雪晶 - 世上只有媽媽好 Shi Shang Zhi You Ma Ma Hao (HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2tcapm-AJQ#)

[曹]世上只有妈妈好 - 视频 - 优酷视频 - 在线观看 (http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjYwMTQ4MjUy)

世上只有媽媽好
In the World only mothers are great.
有媽的孩子像個寶
A child who has a mother is like a gem
投進媽媽的懷抱 幸福享不了
In her embrace, extremely fortunate.

沒有媽媽最苦惱
Without a mother is bitterness to the extreme.
沒媽的孩子像根草
A motherless child is like a string of grass,
離開媽媽的懷抱 幸福那裡找
Away from a mother's embrace, luckless.

世上只有媽媽好
In the World only mothers are great.
有媽的孩子不知道
A child who has a mother does not know.
要是他知道
If he were to know,
夢裡也會笑
He would even smile in his dream.
