old songs are nice

遍体鳞伤---古皓
词: 黄一雄 曲:许卿耀

原来我比你还心慌 看你行色匆忙
这次你已经决定了方向喔
我只能站在这里望

喔 baby 是你看我变得坚强
是你让候鸟不再往南
baby 是你要我停泊停航
是你让四季都有阳光

你可以笑我痴笑我疯笑我狂
我留你的手绝对不放
我的心好慌意好乱人好烦
有你的地方才叫做天堂
你可以笑我痴笑我疯笑我狂
纵然我为你遍体鳞伤
我的梦好长夜好凉爱好难
有你的时光爱才能飞扬

但愿你比我还软心肠 不说好聚好散
永远你是我投奔的方向喔
别陷我在泪里迷惘

Was playing random songs on my mp3 player & came across this song. Rather "long-ago" song by local singer/songwriter Gu Hao. Loved the end of the chorus the most. Always wonder how the guy managed to sing such beautiful falsettos. (or is it the editing of the recording engineer haha.. =( )

Anyway, Gu Hao disappeared for sometime, but I guess cos he's working behind the scenes now. A recent song of Jolin Tsai, Jia Zhuang, was actually composed by him. Nice song.

Sometimes, when I chance upon songs of the 90s' or even really oldies (Teresa Teng era), I begin to think that singers of the past really have more "shi2 li4" than the singers now. Beatiful voices, beautiful melodies, beautiful lyrics. I think that's why they're called "金曲" "golden melodies" haha..
