I Don't Wanna Talk About It ~ Rod Stewart & Amy Belle

任潔玲 ~ 我們有沒有愛過

I remember losing sleep in camp during the night waiting for this MTV to come on and its usually the last one cos its No 1 on the charts. Well, its still a classic.

大海 ~ 张雨生

This is the original by 张雨生. I am sure we miss his voice. This is one song I will not attempt so that I can keep a good memory of it. And, btw, I can't unless its down a few octave... :P

大海 ~ 楊培安

从那遥远海边慢慢消失的你
本来模糊的脸竟然渐渐清晰
想要说些什麽又不知从何说起
只有把它放在心底

茫然走在海边看那潮来潮去
徒劳无功想把每朵浪花记清
想要说声爱你却被吹散在风里
猛然回头你在那里

如果大海能够唤回曾经的爱
就让我用一生等待
如果深情往事你已不再留恋
就让它随风飘远
如果大海能够带走我的哀愁
就像带走每条河流
所有受过的伤
所有流过的泪
我的爱
请全部带走

This song was one of my favorite originally by the late 张雨生. I am happy to see that 楊培安 has sang it very well indeed. This song does bring back memory of a story at a certain seaside on a rainy night...

三国志全日本超级动画主题 《风姿花传》~ 谷村新司

風は叫ぶ人の世の哀しみを
星に抱かれた静寂の中で
胸を開けば燃ゆる 血潮の赫は
共に混ざりて大いなる流れに

人は夢見る　ゆえにはかなく
人は夢見る　ゆえに生きるもの
嗚呼 嗚呼 誰も知らない 　
嗚呼 嗚呼 明日散る花さえも

固い契り爛漫の花の下
月を飲み千す宴の
君は歸らず殘されて伫めば
肩にあの子の誓いの花吹雪 　　

人は信じて　そして破れて
人は信じて　そして生きるもの
嗚呼 嗚呼 誰も知らない
嗚呼 嗚呼 明日散る花さえも

国は破れて 城も破れて
草き枯れても 風は鳴き渡る
嗚呼 嗚呼 誰も知らない
嗚呼 嗚呼 風のその姿を
嗚呼 嗚呼　花が傳える
嗚呼 嗚呼 風のその姿を

风呜咽，低诉人间愁怨;
夜寂静，怀揽繁星满天;
心胸开，热血有如烈焰;激流汇，化作洪流闪电。

梦中人，渐已入梦;梦中梦，人生如梦;
呜呼 呜呼 谁人知晓？呜呼 呜呼 明朝花落多少？

花烂漫，见证无悔誓言;共举杯，同饮月影一片;
望君还，孤独伫立此间;花已残，化雪轻洒我肩。

人有信，而言无信;有信人，为信而生;
呜呼 呜呼 谁人知晓？呜呼 呜呼 明朝花落多少？

国已破，城亦陷，枯草黄，风呜咽。
呜呼 呜呼 谁人知晓？呜呼 呜呼 风姿如此窈窕。
呜呼 呜呼且问飞花。呜呼 呜呼 风姿如此窈窕…

KAORI ~ Ayakashi - 世界が終わりを告げていても

Bobi is so sleepy

An attempt to sign the Bobi Song while he is trying to sleep is really a very funny thing to do... :) I laugh until drop on floor.

车站

火车已经到车站
阮的心头渐渐重
看人欢喜来接亲人
阮是伤心来相送
无情的喇叭声音声声弹
月台边依依难舍心所爱的人
火车已经过车站
阮的目眶已经红
车窗内心爱的人
只有期待夜夜梦
火车已经到车站
阮的心头渐渐重
看人欢喜来接亲人
阮是伤心来相送
无情的喇叭声音声声弹
月台边依依难舍心所爱的人
火车已经过车站
阮的目眶已经红
车窗内心爱的人
只有期待夜夜梦
无情的喇叭声音声声弹
月台边依依难舍心所爱的人
火车已经过车站
阮的目眶已经红
车窗内心爱的人
只有期待夜夜梦

Who Will Comfort Me ~ Connie Dover

This is a very nice song to listen in a quiet night. I specially love it because of the meaning it is expressing. This may be a song long ago (for me, its new :P), but I hope everyone can listen to this and appreciate the message it is trying to express.

The darkness now is lifting
Dawn blushes in the sky
It lays a spread of gold and red
And breathes a lullaby
To a thousand quiet creatures
Of earth and sky and stream
Who cannot know that paradise
Will one day be a dream

When the last wagon rolls along
And fades into the West
And cuts a trail of progress
Through a singing skylark's nest
When the last woodland creature
Lifts her head to flee
And is snared by her protector
Lord, who will set her free?

When the boundless spirit
Has no place to roam
The heart will sadly whisper
This world is not my home
When the sweep of wind along the grass
Bows down to destiny
When the last bright star has fallen
Lord, who will comfort me?

When the last prairie flower
Gives up her yellow bloom
When the high cathedral skies
Give way to crowded rooms
When we parcel heaven
And fence eternity
When the wildness is all tamed and torn
Don't let me live to see

When the last campfire flickers
And is laid to righteous rest
When the Ones who wandered without fear
Are cursed who once were blessed
When all our deeds of glory
Are laid in front of Thee
When you ask what man hath wrought
Don't rest Your gaze on me

When the boundless spirit
Has no place to roam
The heart will sadly whisper
This world is not my home
When the sweep of wind along the grass
Bows down to destiny
When the last bright star has fallen
Lord, who will comfort me?

Souyou no Fafner

Ok, finally got something good to recommend. Souyou no Fafner. Don't worry about what it means. Literally, Fafner of the Azure. Anyway, you will know when you come to the end of the anime why its named so. Its not the typical happy ever after kind of movie. To be frank, they killed off a main character right out in the early episodes... which left a lot of percussion in the remaining of the series.

Its a pretty good story. Something in the future 20xx where Festum (kinda metal form aliens) descend onto earth and cause the begining of a great war. I do not want to spoilt too much of it, but whatever that is to seem at hte start, the happy friends, school, everything is not what it seems. And everything is heading to a sad sad ending. I am not saying I love sad ending, but war is a fact and people die. This anime do not glorify it like some other.

I must say the pace and the audio is really good. The EP and ED songs, Shangri-La and Seperation are really great. I must say overall, I highly recommend this anime. Guess what, my guess is pretty good. There is no Korean involved in this one and it turns out fantastic. See my previous post about bad animes.
