addicted to the 80s

我只在乎你

我又要著黑白格仔Blazer襯Shocking Pink 耳環！！！

What about now

平日甚少看電視，對甚麼American Idol / British Got Talent更是一無所知．

近日無意間聽到一首I am going home，被歌詞深深吸引，對這隊名為Daughtry 的樂隊產生好奇．原來主音Chris Daughtry是06年American Idol的finalist，輸了比賽，還好沒有輸掉堅持．首張大碟兩度上了Billboard冠軍，銷量更超越了同屆American Idol 冠軍 Taylor Hicks．

今天的"失"，可能成就了明天的"得"．
人生呀，真是妙妙妙哉．

Another Night

Another tune that gets my feet itchy!!

I WANT TO DANCE DAMN IT!!!
(embedding disabled on original mv... this one is pretty funny thou...)

a little bit of the 70s

a random song, with a more random mv

come across this song by danish singer malene mortensen randomly and got hooked immediately. tired to find the mv in youtube, and i find this video with clips of CJ & Danny...

the lyrics of the song, the story of CJ & Danny, the good old days when i was an addict to west wing...

擴疲累

單打獨鬥的夜裡, 好在有他

my cab ride last nite

Got into a cab and heard Carla Bruni's beautiful voice immediately...The driver put on his favorite, , after my request of my favorite .

so much came onto my mind my heart as we humped these songs seperately together.

"Combien?"
"Trente s'il vous plaît"
"Voila. Merci beaucoup."
"Bonne nuit, mademoiselle!"
"Au Revoir"
"Hm...Il t'a vu sourire..."

Isn't he amazing!? and come on, a french speaking cab driver who listens to Carla Bruni as he works?

My darling city sure have tons of lovely surprises to provide...

The Amazing 80s

MV簡單直接，鏡頭準確，感情細膩，再加靚人靚歌靚AD！

Can u believe it was from 1986...?

當年該算是潘源良/張艾嘉/盧冠廷各自的創作頂峰吧?
可一不可再的Timeless Piece.

stand up and...

danceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Dedicated to...

Wanted to sing this song to you since u took me for that pint of boddington.

If u ever go back there, they will probably remember a crazy gal singing this song three times in two hours on another racing night, and yes, it was after i lost my cool to you over sms, the first & only time.

May never get the chance to sing it out loud, but here's hoping.

Olive...

a easily forgotten name in the trihop history...

their first album, extra virgin, is still one of my all time fav!!

His voice

Makes everything fine.

So fine that they don't
matter
anymore.

They never should
had
mattered.

愛死雙子C

感謝永遠有歌

很喜歡

Bedtimes Stories

Been listening to this old album from a different perspective...very interesting i must say... am falling in love with this album more than ever!

wanted to dedicate Don't Stop to myself but I can't find any videos! So here goes my 2nd fav, Human Nature!

興奮四寶之我的歌

Torn

呢隻歌，由十四歲個年開始煲，煲到今時今日．有時幾日無聽，我係會掛住首歌架囉！

反而係個MV，咁多年都睇唔明．．．

心亂如麻

玉的聯想

我問：「喂，係咪有隻歌... Jade...咩不得而la la la...往日... la la la 」
友人：「小姐，你咁la法，好難幫你架窩...」
我答: 「好似係溫碧霞(!?)唱架...」
友人：「..............」

哼哼哼我自己找，找極都找唔到...後來先發現，句歌詞係Jay唔係Jade，歌，劉美君唱；戲，溫碧霞做....!!!

本來想放呢隻歷盡艱辛找黎既午夜情，但由於我聽到某幾句總係笑左出黎，都係呢隻岩Feel d．

又又，劉美君果然係一代型女！正呀！

又又又，仲有個Live Piano Version，都好正！

With or without you

keeping the brits poping!!!

I SCREAMED WHEN I WATCHED THIS VIDEO!! That lucky girl... If I were her, I'd probably have a heart attack and wish to die in Bono arms. =)

Trash

It's becoming apparent my entire adolescent development is tied with brit pop! Suede, Oasis, U2, Blur, Verve, Portishead, Prodigy, Radiohead...

Their songs bring back all these bits & pieces of vivid images that had long been empty trashed. (or so I thought)

Hey this blog serves a purpose, finally! hahaahhaha

Maybe, maybe it's the things we say,
The words we've heard and the music we play,
Maybe it's our cheapness,
Or maybe, maybe it's the times we've had,
The lazy days and the crazes and the fads,
Maybe it's our sweetness,
But we're trash, you and me,
We're the litter on the breeze,
We're the lovers on the street,
Just trash, me and you,
It's in everything we do,
It's in everything we do...

More brit pop, MORE!!

When I search creep on google the third result title was: 宅男國歌 - Radiohead 的 Creep. Hahahahha is this any wonder why I am so crazy abt this song?

乩文兩句

莫理閒見，緊守己心．

No change, I can't change,
I can't change, I can't change,
but I'm here in my mold ,
I am here with my mold
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no, no

a random night

went for my cold pint after betting and ran into mr. to!!! this is a little freaky, i was just wondering why he escapes all the legco dramas and voila, his face right there once i walked in the little bar!

a night of screaming shouting & singing. but why not? the mere fact of us being safe and sound and in one piece deserves one big celebration...

it's alright we sang can't take my eyes off you FOUR times... but this? with the whole bar staring??? Hahahahaha

Lobo!?

Alright, no idea abt this singer at all, hahahahaha. Since laulong & oz seems to appreciate“how can I tell her” a lot I started my research again… (yea curiousity could be a curse sometimes). Turns out he’s the singer of “will you still love me tomorrow”. Wow, seriously, something new to learn everyday eh?

Am not going to comment on the arrangement or the style as fondness is entirely based on one’s particular taste, and most of the time, taste is connected with emotions. Anyhow, I came across this song that I find beautiful, thx to my little research. =)

Guess in the end, we all shd stay open minded eh?

霖得病態

興奮四寶之二

今天寫文寫至小S的一段，很是念掛這個高飛遠走至印度的女人．她上線，急不及待傳她新文，好讓她先行過目．

愛玲說：「女人......女人一輩子講的是男人，念的是男人，怨的是男人，永遠永遠。」

女生想找個可愛女伴分享男人經，比找個值得談論的男人難上百倍．

分離從來不易．

這首曲，是我們女生間的National Anthem，代表這個Sisterhood的Attitude.

*(Original MV全都加上停止嵌入功能，煩人．氣餒之際，竟然發現1985年有一套同名電影，女主角更是Sarah Jessica Parker，即Sex and the city 的 Carrie．不喜歡OST的Arrangement，但因為SJP，就用這個Version吧．又，現在好想看這套戲呢！)

Cab Calloway

A True Showman.

What a pity i can't embed the videos of him singing St. James Infirmary... so here is a funny clip of him & Jonah Jones "jamming"... ENJOY!

回南天下的仙丹

Fitzgerald^^

Esp love her improvisation starting from 5:05 till the end with the double bass player.

And the drummer was topless !?!

Hm...

Kraftwreck，病到去唔成，蝕讓左比朋友仔．
Prodigy，買左飛但無人陪，搭上搭送左比哥兒個朋友個唔知邊個．
Chick Corea，有人認頭負責買飛，但開show前一日先話，買少左兩張飛．．．．

到底想點呢?
我同Concert係咪已經緣盡!?

Amazing Clip of Chick Corea + Herbie Hancock 1978 Tour
"琴，並唔係咁彈架...."

And so it is...

Alice: Where is this love? I can't see it, I can't touch it. I can't feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can't do anything with your easy words.

- Quoted from Closer

花言巧語

one of my favorite
sing-a-long back in
the noon k era.
when my voice was not
distorted by
tobacco and
alcohol.

and now, in my
dusk k era
i continue requesting
the same song
just for the sake of
listening.

with a smile, of cos
sweet sixteen shall
always remain
sweet

as for that
bitterness
or sometimes
sourness
I am sure it's from
the alcohol.

I am sure.

如何可以不愛她

My ultimate idol of 2008, Madame Sarkozy Carla Bruni

Tu es ma came - Carla Bruni

錯失

嚷了個多月要到新加坡看(跳)Prodigy，最終沒有去得成．

怕孤單怕寂寞怕無癮，釀成錯失．

但如果真是不容錯失，我應該有一個人上路的勇氣吧？
當欠缺那份勇氣，那是否代表我其實不如想像般渴望？

Maybe all i need is some good smacking! LOL

Smack my Bitch up - The Prodigy

感動是

一次偶遇討論;一則留言鼓勵;一通電話問候;一個電郵支持;一條短訊關懷．

想像你的微笑眼神表情用詞動作，然後一一記錄在心深處．

從無到有，感激以外，還要加上感恩．

或遠或近，你們都是天使．

I Don't Want To Miss Thing - Aero Smith

Let's do the things we normally do...

My favorite song from Dido's latest album had been echoing in my head the whole day, thanks to a day full of heart warming communications.

"Lets forget that we're here and make some plans
We'll go for walks, sit on the bench we always sat
I'll tell you every little detail of my day and so will you
Don't try to stay awake, I'm feeling tired too
This is just another day
Let’s do the things we normally do"

Let's Do The Things We Normally Do - Dido

唔該晒

一直唔鍾意過時過節, 因為會令人有得閑o既感覺.　人呢, 一得閑自然就八卦. 例如... 今晚有三個識o既加七個唔識o既男子, 一齊剖析我無男朋友o既原因.

我．真．係．唔．該．晒．佢．地．

仲要點呢隻歌比我聽．．．我忍得住無講粗口，我覺得真係"我太强"囉

我太强 - 關心妍

興奮四寶之首

呢隻歌,聽多一萬次, 聽到七老八十, 我都一定會Dance Dance Dance.

溫馨提示: 卡sir, 下次再送故仔比我(假如), 可以參考呢個MV :)))))))))))))

Material Girl - Madonna (Original MV 1985)

救心四寶

的士內，收音機正播著一首舊歌，我不自覺的跟著唱，是一字／一音不漏地跟著唱出整首歌．

朋友問我歌名，我肯定地答　"許美靜的<明知故犯>"

原來攪錯了．是<傾城>才對．

以往每次鬧分手，這兩首不止是Must Sing，更一定是要孖住來唱．只唱其中一首，又或分開來唱，總覺意猶未盡，未能盡訴心中情．有時朋友任我發洩，我還會另加<鐵窗>及<遺憾>，一口氣連唱四歌，來個小型許美靜回顧．

已經好久沒有唱/聽過四寶，不知怎的，竟然懷念起那些需要它們的晚上．

傾城 - 許美靜

High On Bubbles

今年今夜，我們十人在大宅發瘋．
今年七月，我們將會聚集百餘人在同一大宅發瘋．

一言為定．

I am nothing without you folks.

Out Of Control - Chemical Brothers

YooOOoOHooOoo

How did u welcome the year of Ox?!

I showed my enthusiasm by:
TRIPPING, FALLING & TWISTING MY WRIST + ELBOW + SHOULDER!

How do you like my signature PK style? I am kinda proud of it, esp. when there's no "iron hit" opening in CNY!

Another lesson of me trapping myself in a self-inflicted misery.

On this particular cold night, I am escaping the reality by dreaming of a sunny hot beach, with tons of cute topless guys running around.

(The Beach soundtrack has always been on the top of my list, among all the excellent tracks, Moby's Porcelain had made my favorite. Unfortunately I didn't find a MV with movie footages so alas, a more dreamy selection.)

Pure Shores - All Saints

失救以前...

我們還是要試著自救．

我的無可救藥，只得我懂．

也幸好如此．

我也不想這樣 - 王菲

慶之餘...

"Liberty, love! These two I need. For my love I will sacrifice life, for liberty I will sacrifice my love." - Petőfi Sándor

(Pls refer to my mumblings)

Numb - Linkin Park

A belated discovery

randomly found this song on youtube and i was completely stunned by the lyrics.

I used to say "no promises, let’s keep it simple"
But freedom only helps you say Good-bye
It took a while for me to learn that nothin’comes for free
The price I've paid is high enough for me

I need to be in love - Carpenters

歷史時刻

呆在電視前，見證歷史時刻．
在失望中發現希望，是天使的祝福還是魔鬼的咀咒？
Keeping my fingers crossed.


Smells Like Teen Spirits - Nirvana

Sour Times

我的善．你的惡．
你的惡．我的善．

從陌路到摯親，六年後，不知是看真了你，還是從未懂得你．

(想過用Keane 的We Might As Well Be Strangers, 還是選了我最愛的Portishead. Oh this is not their best song but Portishead is forever.)

Sour Times - Portishead

難分進退

從差點忘了到等足四天，我安慰自己說，我們這一步，是進，非退．

當有天真能把我倆的過去忘得一乾二淨，到底會是因我記憶力衰退，還是在思行上更進一步？

年月大概無法改變那一位小王子，只希望大了一歲的他，不再遇上驕縱的玫瑰．

這歌行貨，我知．但一時間想不到有甚麼更好選擇．怕太浪漫，想選Connie Talbot的版本，但這歌由一位未悉世情的小女孩唱出，感覺實在兀突．Witney Huston 的版本，又於十年前已成了街知巷問的"行"歌．

最後決定用 Dolly Parton 的 Original Version．要娘，便痛快地娘過夠嘛！

I will always love you - Dolly Parton

人生主調

新開張, 當然要選一隻具代表性的主題曲. 喜歡It's My Life, 不單因為說出了我對人生的想法, 而是同一首詞, 同樣由 Bon Jovi來唱, 但以兩種演繹方式, 感覺上竟然會有如此強烈的對比.

每次聽 Unplug version, 都凄酸得想落下淚來. 然後嘛, 不就是再聽Original Version 來為自己打氣加油囉. (笑)

一如人生, 有悲喜甜苦, 全憑自己怎以My Way 演繹.

Will you share your theme song with me ?

Bon Jovi - It's My Life (Unplugged Version)
