我愿意

i think 我愿意 has gotta be the saddest song ever.
such selfless profession of love, without any trace of regret.
and the biggest irony is that Faye sings in such a hopeful manner, tinged with just slight melancholy without knowing whether the subject wld care as much in return.
i almost cried when i heard it at work today.




so much of chi pop today jus feels so saccharine-sweet. i want to puke. perhaps it's the bad song choices in the recent compilations. i never get them. i think an album's gotta be listened as a whole. the best albums usually have a concept, or better, a sustained mood that grabs the listeners. ten great songs wld bode as a good album too, but it wldnt be that classic. the idea of pickin the "best" songs and mashing them all up in 1 album jus doesnt attracts me very much.

i prefer canto pop now. partly cos they're mostly tragic. and every other song written by Lin Xi/Huang Wei wen.
