我就是忘记你是一个不值得我的精神的人。

All I wish is for another's voice to be in unison with mine.

因为我们曾经都被抛弃过，所以当我们遇见愿意爱我们的人，我们就不会放开手。因为我们有多害怕失去的痛。你不能随便寻求慰藉，因为你不能自私地不在乎别人的感受。

All I wish is for another's voice to be in unison with mine.

一样的开始，但我会确保结果是不一样的。
“想做什么就做，上次犯的错，对的人会欣赏你的错”。

All I wish is for another's voice to be in unison with mine.

万芳《试着了解 》

在这里向万芳致敬！《试着了解 》十分扣人心悬，《新不了情》原唱者也应该是她吧。

1993年的《试着了解 》，21年后，听着还觉得很心痛。百听不厌，从她的声音能听到刺痛，自己也要到那个程度，多难啊！

我的日子　在等谁听见啊
我的哀愁　想跟谁说说啊
我的愤怒　只埋在心底吗
我的快乐　有人能分享吗

我真的能那么自私，把全部寄托在你身上吗？

你知道吗，我一直都在看电话，多么希望能收到你的简讯，但是几个钟头了，都没有。难道，你已经忘了你昨天对我说的吗？原来，你和其他人一样吗？

每一次要他说出我的名字，但是他偏偏不会这么做。难道叫我的人，即使我不对他怎样，真的会对我好吗？

All I wish is for another's voice to be in unison with mine.

At Pizza Hut yesterday, I thanked every service staff who served me, and noticed an interesting observation.

One lady seemed hesitant, even surprised by my simple gesture. She then looked at me in the eye and smiled. Why, it suddenly dawned on me that most service staff at F&B outlets may not have looked at their customers. And the same may be said of the opposite parties.

I don't think we are any superior than them just because we are lying on some comfortable plush leather armchairs, and they have to serve us at our request. We are all human beings and if we don't care for each other, who else will?

Album comparison review at 2 months of release. 杨丞琳《双丞戏》, 梁文音《漫情歌》

After listening to 杨丞琳《双丞戏》, and 梁文音《漫情歌》, I felt that a singer with a higher prestige still wins. Of course having a record company that could produce more MV with a great storyline helps boost song retention and playback, but I pity a little pitiful for 梁文音.

Although she used 同名专辑 technique to get more publicity for her 主打歌《漫情歌》, it didn't work well with me. In contrast, the overarching story of having two personalities worked allowed 3 songs 《点水》、《失忆的金鱼》、《其实我们值得幸福》to blossom, even though none was referenced earlier. In contrast, 梁文音 had only 3 songs that pleased me, barely passing my mark for an album worth listening to, and a disappointment from her previous 《黄色夹克》， which was refreshing, new, thematic, rather than going back to a typical Mando-pop genre.

To make it worse, 《分手后不要做朋友》was released as early as the start of this year, a full 3/4 of a year before this album was released! Though it got the fans excited, the two previewed songs that followed, 《每一次恋爱》，《爱其实很残忍》were about all the best the album can offer.

After finishing with her trilogy album, I am pleased 杨丞琳 came up with a "bonus" album that somewhat follows through the positiveness of the last album《天使之翼》. Although 2 songs were previewed - 《我想爱》，《下个转弯是你吗》， the trilogy of songs mentioned earlier helped to further show the essence of the album and stands it out from the market, especially with 蔡依林 albums，and 林俊杰，周杰伦 albums which are just released among others.

Of course, there are a few more songs in 杨丞琳 album which I like,《喜剧收场》is a good place to start, though there is no need to stop through the whole album. As it is an early start, but I hope more effort (which may not be possible due to money) could be spent on 梁文音, so that rather catchy songs 《漫情歌》、《寂寞之光》、《住在心里的过客》、《我们会再见》 、《鲁凯的姑娘》are not wasted. As evidenced from this statement, a great boost can propel it back to the times of 《爱的诗篇》, her first.
