tats the famous quote by Robert Capa...legendary
war photographer...one of the few photographers
tat i spent money buying their works...i bought 2
of his books...Capa covered numerous wars from the 30s
to 50s when he died in Vietnam...

his most famous work..tis was shot in 1936 in Spain during
the spanish civil war...soldier in pic was fallin to death
after gettin a headshot...tis is defintely not a posed
picture...

D-Day @ Normandy 1944 WWII...director Janusz Kaminski
used tis as his inspiration for filmin Saving Private Ryan.

1945 US soldier dead after melee with German forces...

my own influences...

bumped into tis juz now...really forgotten abt it...
it was watchin/listenin to tis more than 16 years ago
when i was primary 1 tat in time gotten me into music and
photography..especially black and white...those whu noe
me since sch days would noe my killer black n white
photographs...i thought the mtv was done in a great manner..
the cropping..the lighting...the photographs..
and most impt the screenplay...amazing...if you can
differentiate,the lead guitar and steel lap seems to
cry out the sad sombre truth of the lyrics...
now if u noticed..the whole mv was in black n white...
only @ the start n end for 2 seconds there was colour...
if u look closely..the Earth was shown in colour then
faded into B/W..i tot that was a great touch...
fuck,wong kar wai shud really learn from tis and
stop churning out rubbish in B/W....tis is
real deal B/W tat played contrast(both photography,
artistically n literally) to the max...nuff said...

japanese influence...

as i mentioned earlier on in the Shinji Tanimura post...alot of
jap music was used to make songs in the 80s...well into the
90s it was still more or less the same...Hideaki Tokunaga(德永英明)
was another jap guy whose music was covered heavily...His debut
single Rainy Blue in 1986 was covered by Jacky Cheung (蓝雨)..
it produce the biggest hit in jacky's 2nd album in tat same year..
Rainy Blue by Hideaki Tokunaga

©Universal Music Group JPN 1986

Tokunaga's later works were covered by many other HK n TW artists
like Alan Tam,陈晓东,迪克牛仔,王杰 and many more..

oh..i'll definitely hav to mention Keisuke Kuwata(桑田佳佑)...
he probably defined Asian music in the 90s...and again jacky
cheung took one of his best works Manatsu no Kajitsu(theme song
of Kuwata's own 1991 film Inamura Jane) and turned it into
每天爱你多一些.Kuwata's original version was really pop in
jpn but jacky sent it into outer space wif his rendition...
tis song actually revived jacky's career...
Manatsu no Kajitsu by Keisuke Kuwata & Southern All Stars

©Victor JVC Records JPN 1991

the next year..jacky took another Kuwata song and made it
into 真情流露...now tis song didnt peaked like 每天爱你多一些...
but..many many years later...sum KOREAN guy covered it as
the theme song for 2001 SBS korean drama PIANO...i watched
it in 2002 and i tot it was the only watchable Korean drama
to date..mainly coz of Jo Jae-Hyun(赵在玄)..the baddie uncle
in the drama tat tried to turn gd...his actin was great in Piano.
in his dying scenes in Piano... he was reachin Chow Yun-Fat's
performance in the 1980 TVB drama The Bund(上海滩)...
Now as i was watchin Piano..it was catchin fire in Taiwan
as the K-drama to watch..So much so they did a mandarin
version of the theme song...rookie 范逸臣 covered it and
got famous...talk abt recycling for the environment..lol..

Without You

ok..i stumbled upon this while surfin the net..i guess every1
definitely heard the song Without You b4...Most probably the
versions by Air Supply or Mariah Carey...But for me it would
be Harry Nilsson's(pic abv)1972 version...i tot tat was the original..
LOL was i wrong after all tis while...The very first and
original version was by British rock group Badfingers in 1970.
now the reason im postin tis is becoz theres a really tragic
story tat revolved around tis song...Badfingers was a rock
group from Wales and the members Peter Ham and Thomas Evans
wrote the song in 1970..it wasnt really their taste but still
they cut it in their album No Dice..2 years later Nilsson..
whose from the US heard it and covered it...He won himself
a best vocal performance in the Grammys tat very year for
his rendition of Without You...Nilsson credited Badfingers'
Peter Ham and Thomas Evans for it..but..Badfingers' manager
sumhow made the royalties go into his own pocket...after 3
years of struggle...Peter Ham was desperate n disillusioned
and he hanged himself in 1975...8 years on....co-writer Tom
Evans ended his own life in 1983 in a similar manner due to the
very same reason as Ham...Now Nilsson was flying high in the 70s
with 2 Grammys and a shit load of hits but it soon went down
as he went back to ALCOHOL fulltime...he was dissapointin
thru out the 80s and in the meantime his financial adviser
RIPPED all his money he ever earnt and left him an ass full
of debts in 1991...now he wakes up and stop drinkin..he was back
writin songs and started to do a new album...well he finished
recordin the vocal tracks for the album in 1994 but he died
that very night of a heart attack...wad a twist of fate...
really sad...well i think Mr Nilsson's version of Without
You was really to the MAX...although Badfingers' version
was really close.. u can really feel it in his voice..
the way he projected it...The Air Supply/Mariah Carey
versions was juz a display of vocal abilities in my opinion..
didnt really like it..although im quite a fan of air supply..
well RIP guys...

Harry Nilsson's version

©RCA Victor Records 1972

Badfingers' original version..the video's really bad but
i think its worth lookin at if not listened to...

©Apple Publishing UK 1970

OMG...juz realised tis..the track duration for Badfingers'
without you is exactly 4:44...i ripped the mp3 from their
original disc No Dice album....now for non chinese ppl..
the number 4(四)sounds exactly like die(死) in mandarin n
nearly every single dialect of it...so 4:44...die die die...
omg...Ham,Evans and Nilsson...Air Supply and Mariah Carey
got lucky...

Alone again..naturally...

oh..yes..heres sumting i tot abt life tats really dark...a song by Irishman Gilbert O'Sullivan...Speakin of Irishmen...he reminded me of another famous Irishman in his time..The Notorious Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins(pic left)...Greatest snooker player of all time in my opinion..the original bad boy of snooker....i modelled my snooker play in his style...many of you noe i luv playin snooker..but i more or less given it up...i cant really get pass my best break of 88....
i've got sum great cues for sale though..Alex was a big time gangsta...you can YOUTUBE him..theres alot of videos of Alex in action on youtube...
Alone Again(Naturally) by Gilbert O'Sullivan

hmmm another gangsta hairdo..fuckin retro...lol to think
of it..ppl in 70s cud go to work wif tis kinda hair but
now..u get fucked if ur hair's juz a lil' bit long..lol

Alone Again(Naturally) ENG Composer/Lyrics:Raymond O'Sullivan
©MAM Records UK 1972
In a little while from now
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I promise myself to treat myself and visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top,Will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to who-
Ever what it's like when you're shattered
Left standing in the lurch at a church
Where people saying "My God that's tough, she's stood him up
No point in us remaining, we may as well go home"
As I did on my own
Alone again, naturally.

To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and gay
Looking forward to, well who wouldn't do
The role I was about to play
But as if to knock me down, reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch
Cut me into little pieces
Leaving me to doubt, talk about, God in his mercy
Oh if He really does exist, why did He desert me?
In my hour of need, I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally.

It seems to me that there are more hearts broken in the world
That can't be mended, left unattended
What do we do?
What do we do?

Alone again, naturally.

Now looking back over the years
And whatever else that appears
I remember I cried, when my father died
Never wishing to hide the tears
And at sixty-five years old
My mother, God rest her soul
Couldn't understand, why the only man
She had ever loved had been taken
Leaving her to start, with a heart so badly broken
Despite encouragement from me, no words were ever spoken
And when she passed away
I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally.

this song is beyond blue...its black..oh my....
really felt it...now as u might notice..most ppl
tat i post abt are all DEAD..but FYI Mr O'Sullivan
and Mr Alex Higgins are very much alive...Mr Higgins
won the biggest match of his life,but not on the
snooker table...He battled against throat cancer
and got over it recently..all the smoking damn...
BRAVO to the Hurricane!

if u liked the song..i hav it...

一生何求...wad do you want,in life??

Danny Chan(陈百强)...HK superstar in the 80s...The undisputed
depression king of Cantopop and maybe all time...He was an ultra
talented composer.He shot to fame in 1977,winning the HK Pop
Song Composition comp..He was really good on the ivories...
His works are needless to mention if u're a cantopop junkie..
But gradually he went into a depressed mood with the rise of
ppl like andy lau and aaron kwok..which was deemed untalented
and was juz famous for lookin gd...i think he really took pride
in his work..then he fell into the arms of alcoholism and later
amphetamines in the late 80s..then in May 1992 he was found
unconscious and stayed in coma for 17 months till his
parents decided to put him off the life support device which
kept him alive in Oct 1993...

ok heres footage of him juz b4 death...his very last public
performance..in Shanghai April 1992...


一生何求(粤语)曲:王文清 词:潘伟源 编曲:苏德华
©Warner Music HK 1989
冷暖哪可休,回头多少个秋
寻遍了却偏失去,未盼却在手
我得到没有,没法解释得失错漏
刚刚听到望到便更改,不知哪里追究
一生何求?
常判决放弃与拥有
耗尽我这一生,触不到已跑开
一生何求?
迷惘里永远看不透
没料到我所失的,竟已是我的所有
一生何求?
曾妥协也试过苦斗
梦内每点缤纷,一消散哪可收
一生何求
谁计较赞美与诅咒
没料到我所失的,竟已是我的所有

the above in my own SInglish interpretation...
the changin seasons can neva be reversed..
searched all over,but neva realised it was always with me..
in the end i got nuthin,cud neva explain wad i've got n lost.
whats to ask for in life?
always deciding between letting go and staying still..
whats to ask for in life?
i can neva find an answer in my life...
whats to ask for in life?
i can neva walk out of my own fucked up world...
i neva tot tat i'll lost my everything one day..
whats to ask for in life?
yes,i've given up..but i did put in a fight too..
my dreams may be beautiful but its all gone when im awake..
whats to ask for in life?
does the compliments and cursings really matters tat much?
neva would i hav tot i'll lose everything...

i believe tis was the theme song to the 1989 TVB serial 义不容情.
its really ironic tat he sang the song and not learn from it...

sidenote...
Now Danny was good frens wif Leslie Cheung(张国荣) and HK
famous actor/host Paul Chung(钟保罗)..they were being labelled
as 三剑侠(3 musketeers)..in the end all 3 of them more or less
ended their own lifes...Paul was in an ass full of debt from
failed ventures into securities n property...and in 1989 he
jumped from his 26th floor Sha Tin condo..he was 30...few years
later Danny died...Then..Leslie in 2004 April 1st..jumped
from 24th floor of Mandarin oriental hotel in HK...Guess Paul n
Danny was lonely and wanted a reunion...RIP guys...

Honesty (ENG) Composer/Lyrics:Billy Joel ©Sony BMG Music 1978

If you search for tenderness It isn't hard to find
You can have the love you need to live
But if you look for truthfulness You might just as well be blind
It always seems to be so hard to give

Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe

Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you

I can find a lover I can find a friend
I can have security Until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me With promises again
I know, I know

When I'm deep inside of me Don't be too concerned
I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity Tell me where else can I turn
Because you're the one that I depend upon

Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you

well..the lyrics really ripped it apart and exploded wad i really wanted
to say...tis is so ridiculosly true...i came up wif tis in mind...
i've actually thought of a title for my debut album(dun laugh..i might
be THE NEXT jacky cheung)..its called 真实的我, 诚实的您©...
in ENGlish..A TRUTHFUL me n HONEST you©...lol...

regional award but in the end it went to sumone else lol(孙燕姿 i
tink)...i dun care if his fans are offended..i intend to offend
him as he pisses me..

Reung Bon Tieng เรื่องบนเตียง Composer/Lyrics:Boy Peacemaker ©Grammy Records Thailand 2004
เช้าแล้วยังอยู่บน..ที่นอน
chao lao yung yoo bon.. tee norn
It's already daybreak and I'm still lying.. in bed
เงียบ ๆ คนเดียวยังไม่อยากตื่นขึ้นพบ..ใคร
ngiap ngiap kon dee-o yung mai yaak dteun keun pop..krai
I'm staying silent in islolation because I don't want to wake up and meet..anyone.
เพราะว่าใจก็ยัง..เสียดาย ที่ฝันดีๆ กำลังจะจบและหายไป
prow waa jai gor yung.. sia dai tee fun dee dee gum-lung ja jop lae hai bai
Because I'm still..disapointed that a good dream that was about to end had disappeared.
ภาพที่ฉันได้เป็นดั่งคนที่เธอรัก ช่างเป็นอะไรที่ประทับใจ
paap tee chun dai ben dung kon tee ter ruk chaang ben a-rai tee bra-tup jai
The image that I was the person you loved is something that I has touched my heart.
อยากซึมซับนานๆ และเก็บไว้ ไม่ให้มันผ่านไป
yaak seum sup naan naan lae gep wai mai hai mun paan bai
I want to savour the moment and keep it so that it won't pass me by.
อยากหลับตาอยู่อย่างนั้น ทำอยู่อย่างนั้น ฝันถึงเธอเรื่อยไป
yaak lup dtaa yoo yaang nun tam yoo yaang nun fun teung ter reuay bai
I want to keep my eyes closed and continue dreaming about you.
เพราะว่าความจริง ไม่มีทางใด ทำให้เราได้รักกัน โว้..โว
prow waa kwaam jing mai mee taang dai tam hai rao dai ruk gun woh woh
Because in reality, it is impossible for us to be together…who-oh.
ทำได้แค่นั้น ทำได้แค่นี้ ทำได้เพียงแค่ฝัน
tam dai kae nun tam dai kae nee tam dai piang kae fun
I can only do that much. I can only do this much. I can only dream.
ต้องหลอกตัวเอง ฝันไปวันๆ โฮ้..โฮ
dtong lok dtua eng fun bai wun wun hoh hoh
I have to lie to myself and dream from day to day hoh..hoh.
ไม่มีทางที่ฝันมัน..เป็นจริง
mai mee taang fun mun.. ben jing
It is impossible for the dream.. to come true.
เพราะไม่เคยอยู่ใน..สายตา ไม่ว่าเวลาจะนานจะผ่านซักเท่าไร
proh mai ker-ee yoo nai... sai dtaa mai waa we-la ja naan ja paan suk tao rai
Because I've never been in…your eyes. No matter how long and how much time goes by.
ทุกค่ำคืนต้องทน..เหงาใจ ไม่รู้จริงๆ ทำไมๆ ต้องรักเธอ
took kum keun dtong ton... ngao jai mai roo jing jing tam mai tam mai dtong ruk ter
Every night I've got to withstand..the loneliness. I honestly don't know why..why I have to love you.
ภาพที่ฉันได้เป็นดั่งคนที่เธอรัก ช่างเป็นอะไรที่ประทับใจ
paap tee chun dai ben dung kon tee ter ruk chaang ben a-rai tee bra-tup jai
The image that I was the person you loved is something that I has touched my heart.

天地情

蔡国权 or Terence Choi,began as a singer but gradually became a producer in the early 90s and then more or less vapourized...but he was in the light again coz of a near
fatal auto accident in 2002 but he survived thank god...Sum of his notable works include 不装饰你的梦 n 顺流逆流..oh..btw he had a
new album in 2004,完美先生,cant find any materials on it though...

tis is karen lim..she's a local singer..she sang at Babyface, Este and
Shanghai Canto!These are sum places i used to frequent lol...i used to be pissed drunk wif martell n singin to the top of my voice to tis
in the audience..neva expected to find tis on YOUTUBE...
here it is..karen lim coverin 天地情..


天地情(粤语) 曲:R.Stewart/G.Grainger 词:蔡国权 ©Polygram Records HK 1989
深宵中哭泣看着我妄想感动我
苦苦哀声痛哭投怀施展醉人媚力
仍有这勇气说很挂念说天天都想念我
已看透你妄作胡为今天想起仍难受

阳光消失使每天暗淡忍心舍我别去
今天走进我的门墙诉说可否可重聚

传说你与那富有的友伴隐居海边的别墅
我笑说我那会信谣言此刻始知昨天愚昧
还说我已潦倒破落变得灰心不长进是我
此刻的你痛苦彷徨我坚信决心难摇动

谁要见证有天有地 昨天深深地爱着你
但此刻关于你的传言 迫使爱心也死
如今我已有爱我的女伴 而她真心真意待我
请走开她会起怀疑 免得辗转变成祸
go away go away
please please go away
莫说爱我已不再爱你
please please go away

the lyrics translated loosely into SINGlish...

in the still of the nite,dun try to move me with ur crappy tears..
however sad u make it sound and try as u may...
u still hav the cheek to say u miss me...
i've seen thru ur nonsense,n it still hurts when i think abt it..

aint no sunshine when u dumped me..
and now u wanna patch....

rumours had it that u were livin wif a rich bastard by the sea..
i didnt believe it at first..but i realised i was so dumb..
i became overcumed by sorrow and lived in despair...
now its ur turn, but i will neva be moved...

the heaven and earth can testify tat we once loved..
but now i look at u and the past, my heart juz broke..
sorry but now i hav a lovin girlfren and she loves me truthfully..
pls go away..dun make her be suspicious of YOU..
dun make my happiness becum misfortune..
go away..go away..please please go away..
dun say i luv u to me...i dun love u any more...
please please go away...FUCK OFF!!!!

pardon my language..but i felt the tone shud be set tis way...
So...better not bastard anybody..OR..u will regret one day..

Oh btw anyone noe wads the original track of tis song??

ROD Stewart but i cant seem to find it....

Sum guy: 既然如此,何不笑着进去?
THe above mentioned in ENGlish...
Me: U noe wads the worst in life?its when u hav no home to call
upon when ur alive, and no place for u to be buried when ur dead..

Happiness, anger, misery and joy are all in the coffin..

谷村新司 Shinji Tanimura

King of Japanese music since the 70s...His music touched many ppl
unknowingly..many of his works were redone by HK artists in the
late 70s throughout the 80s..
but his greatest still has to be Subaru(昴) in 1980..


there's another version of Subaru on Youtube with Mr Tanimura
singing live!but the owner doesnt allow it to be embedded..
so..heres the url to it...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmMoQf4t57M

ridiculosly beautiful...countless artists covered it..
Alan Tam,Teresa Teng,姜育恒,美空ひばり and some other china
singers too..but my fav cover has to be 关正杰's cantonese
version 星..Mr Tanimura wrote it with the star group
Pleiades in mind..(FYI Pleiades also known as M45 or the Seven
Sisters - is the name of an open cluster in the constellation
of Taurus.It is 440 light yrs away from earth)It was a dark
sombre take at life in comparison to the stars...

His other notable covered works include...
jacky cheung's 遥远的她,aaron kwok's 为何仍剩我一人 n 梦见天信任,
the late anita mui's 孤身走我路,the late leslie cheung's 有谁共鸣 n
共同渡过..but alan tam would be his most collaborated HK artist of
all..Alan covered numerous Tanimura numbers in canto n mandarin..

together will alan tam and korean SUPerStar Zhao Rong Di(赵荣弼)
they held the "PAX MUSICA" concert around asia since 1984 till
1994 annually for charity in the name of world peace..amazin..
these guys shud fuckin get the nobel peace award...

the lyrics in jap..
昴 (日语) 曲:谷村新司 词:谷村新司 ©Universal Music Group JPN 1980
目を闭じて何も见えず 哀しくて目を开ければ
荒野に向かう道より 他に见えるものはなし
ああ 砕け散る 宿命の星たちよ
せめて密やかに この身を照らせよ
我は行く 苍白き頬のままで
我は行く さらば昴よ

呼吸をすれば胸の中 凩は吠き続ける
されど我が胸は热く 梦を追い続けるなり
ああ さんざめく 名もなき星たちよ
せめて鲜やかに その身を终われよ
我も行く 心の命ずるままに
我も行く さらば昴よ

ああ いつの日か 谁かがこの道を
我は行く 苍白き頬のままで
我は行く さらば昴よ
我は行く さらば昴よ

well i hav a translation of it in mandarin...i used an online
translator..so it might not be tat gd..pardon me if theres
any mistakes..

闭上眼睛一切失去光彩 感到悲哀我把双眼睁开
只见道路通向荒野郊外 没有朋友亲人会向我走来
啊。。。宿命之星
光辉灿烂 洒向四方
啊。。。宿命之星
悄悄照亮我的身影 我走啊走
带者苍白的脸色走去 我走啊走
再见吧六连星

深深呼吸迎面吹来寒风 寒风阵阵吹进我的心胸
可是我的心中充满热情 追随美妙梦幻一刻也不停
啊。。。无名之星
闪闪烁烁 光芒四射
啊。。。无名之星
银光照亮我的身影
我走啊走 朝着心中的所向走去
我走啊走 再见吧六连星
啊。。。曾几何时 有人走过的这条路
啊。。。曾几何时 有人走过的这条路
我走啊走 带着苍白的脸色走去
我走啊走 再见吧六连星 再见再见吧

the numbers...
Mr Tanimura have released 62 singles,63 albums and had record
sales of 29,796,682 to date...
Held 3620 concerts in Japan(A record tat has yet to be broken..)
Held 30 overseas concerts(Beijing,Shanghai,Seoul,Hong Kong,Saigon,Bangkok,

sumting i wrote sumtime back..

yeah sum of you might noe tat i luv to write bullshit love stories
since sec sch days..dunno why..but i juz do..sum of my friends
(ah liang and ricky)depend on it to blarf xiao mei mei...tis is
one of my recent nonsense...
我微笑，不代表我没有落泪 我离开，不代表我不想留下来
我坚强，不代表我不需要依赖 我忘记，不代表我们没有曾经相爱
我洗尽了爱，却洗不掉心中的遗憾...
yes i've a ENGlish version too!its based loosely on it..
not direct translation though...
If i smile, it doesnt mean that i will not cry.
If i leave, it doesnt mean that i dont wanna stay.
If im strong, it doesnt mean that i can live without you.
If i forget, it doesnt mean that we never loved.
If we cant be together,it doesnt mean that we're apart.
If fate allows, just let me keep you in my heart.

Feel free to drop me sum comments though...

hmmm memories...

i still rmr the lyrics in the song 生命过客..
在拥有的角落,你是否曾经好好珍惜?
在失去的时候,是否依然那么在意?
一生要失败几回?才知道成功的意义?
一生要爱过几回?才了解爱的真谛... i'll neva forget the one tat i've lost..

perhaps my misery can only be explained thru tis classic by Jacky from 1986..
遥远的她..OT:Roman Tetsudou by Shinji Tanimura(1985)

遥远的她(粤语) 曲:谷村新司 词:潘源良 ©Polygram Records HK 1986
让晚风轻轻吹送了落霞,我已习惯每个傍晚去想她
在远方的她此刻可知道,这段情在我心始终记挂
在这半山那天我知我知快要将别离没说话
望向她却听到她说不要相约,纵使分隔相爱不会害怕
遥遥万里心声有否偏差,正是让这爱试出真与假
遥远的她仿佛这风声跟我话,热情若没变那管它沧桑变化

但这天收到她爸爸的一封信,信里面说血癌已带走她
但觉得空虚的心仿佛已僵化,过去事象炮弹心中爆炸
在这半山这天我悲痛悲痛不已在胡乱说话
夜雨中似听到她说不要相约,纵使分隔相爱不会害怕
人无觅处心声有否偏差,正是让这爱试出真与假
遥远的她仿佛这风声跟我话,热情若没变那管它沧桑变化

遥远的她不可以再归家,我在梦里却始终只有她
遥远的她可知我心中的说话,热情并没变那管它沧桑变化
遥远的她不可以再归家,我在梦里却始终只有她
遥远的她可知我心中的说话,热情并没变那管它沧桑变化
