歌曲分享: Endless Road

haha yes I am renaming the title to be "歌曲分享" as "歌曲回顧" seems to imply sharing of very very old songs.....which I don't necessary do.......as the song I would like to "分享" today was only released in 2004:

Endless Road - 主唱: 林俊傑
(作詞：林俊傑　作曲：林俊傑)

Personally, I found 第二天堂 to be the best JJ's album for me (to date). hehe May be this is because it is the first JJ album I listen to....and probably because I enjoy quite a few songs inside this album that I both love and can listen to for a long time e.g. 第二天堂, 豆漿油條, 江南...

However the first track in the album that caught my attention when I first listen to it was actually "Endless Road". It is the last track of the album and this is the English version of the song 害怕 (which is also featured in the middle of this album). I believe there are a lot of people who love the song 害怕, but for me the English version was the one that first attracted me and is still my preferred one! : P

Why? haha well I found that not only is the music nice but once again (I love the) AWESOME lyrics....the lyrics totally blends in with the mood of the music. Together with JJ's performance of the song....it really does convey the sadness that is hiding inside his heart and afraid of his loneliness and to face the truth of the break up. In particular I love these two verses:

A crystal forming in the eye
Maybe this would be the last
A winding path down my face
Till I begin to taste the bitterness inside

Why am I still holding back my tears
In this loneliness there's nothing to fear
Every chord still seems a wonder
How we could be together
Every time I ask if this would be the last

If you haven't really listen to the English version, then perhaps you may like to try it now (pay attention to the lyrics)!

Endless Road (just song) (hmm...think that link is broken, try this link)
Endless Road (mv from youtube....but song is of bad quality and the mv was actually taken from another song! -.-" Don't recommend as the mv ruins the 'feel' for the song...but if you want something to look at while listening then click this!)
害怕 (If you still prefer/want to watch the Mandarin version of the song from youtube)

P.S. - Apparently JJ wrote the lyrics of this song for 他以前既女朋友! haha so it is true that you have to have 'experience' before you can write something so touching! (both lyrics and the music wor!!! 勁呀!!! : O)
(see source which also has the full lyrics for both 害怕 and Endless Road)
P.P.S. - His hair back then in 2004 was definitely way better! ><"
