24th Jan 2014 (今天開始 – Jay Fung)

The song that I chose for today is “今天開始” by Jay Fung. Personally I don’t like the song too much (just not my cup of tea), but these days this type of Cantonese song is quite rare, so I think it is worth to post it here to promote it. The direct English translation of the title is “Starting from today”.

The lyrics of the song are about how we should see our life. It told us not to get mad even if we are angry. War is nothing like video game in which we can ignore getting shoot. Don’t just say anything to annoy the people around you, it is something that we can’t afford to challenge. Returning fire would destroy the truth. The world is too aloof, too little hug. If we can let go of complain and learn how to love, then at least oxygen could repair the wound. Come on now, sing it loud, we only needs love we don’t need guns. Come on now, let’s reach out, please stop arguing. Use love to shorten the distance between us. Happiness is priceless, if it is broken then we need to fix it ourselves. When we were young, we said a lot of things to hurt people, we thought we were cool and just wanted to win. Me and you are too constrained and too little hug. We need to learn how to laugh and learn how to love and how to be nicer to others. Come on now, sing it loud, we only needs love we don’t need guns. Come on now, let’s reach out, please stop arguing. It is easy to argue, we need to learn how to say good things about others and let go of our selfishness. So come on now, start from today. Come on now, sing it loud, we only needs love we don’t need guns. Come on now, let’s reach out, please stop arguing. Hope you will like the song.

今天開始 – Jay Fung
