Sam Lee Sheng Jie 李圣杰’s ‘Recently’ 最近

你最近不说话
怎麽了为什麽
是不是有什麽事让你不快乐
听说你最近很孤单
有点乱有点慌
可是我却不能够在你的身旁
你想要的
我却不能够给你我全部
我能给的
却又不是你想要拥有的
我们不适合也不想认输
好几次我们抱着彼此都是想要哭
你常解释这样的一切都只是开始
我觉得是所有的一切早就已结束
不想再约束
不要再痛苦
下一次会有更好的情路

爱我却不能给你我全部
我能给的
却又不是你想要拥有的
我们不适合也不想认输
好几次我们抱着彼此都是想要哭
你常解释这样的一切都只是开始
我觉得是所有的一切早就已结束
不想再约束
不要再痛苦
下一次会有更好的情路
这一次我们都能很幸福

Okay I know this song has already been released for more than one year but considering I barely listen to any Chinese music these days, you must understand my position. I heard the song’s chorus on some guy’s ringtone and from that moment I just can’t get it out of my head.

For the past few days, I went around humming the song to almost every single friend and not one knew the title. I’d like to blame that on the song being released so long ago and not my lack of musical talents.

Lo and behold! I found this another friend who was using it as his ringtone and now the song’s playing on my iTunes over and over again. Yes, I’m special that way. :D

    I was no stranger to the mandarin and cantopop scene a couple of years back. Lately I’ve cut down from hearing some of those mushy and predictable love songs. Surely, Sam Lee’s got a good voice, but don’t you think Zui Jin sounds like another one of his usual all-too-familiar lovey dovey tunes. And the lyrics are really lame and way too colloquial. You bet I can write better lyrics!

    Yes I know and I totally agree with you on the predictability of almost all the Chinese love songs out there.

    The thing is, I just can’t get this tune out of my head. AHHH.
