MY ANATA



If u haf watched David's Ultrasound docu, can see David arguing wif Andrew abt My Anata. He wanted to make My Anata the intro song 4 his third album but Andrew strongly disagreed. Andrew felt dat My Anata might give ppl the wrong impression dat the whole album filled wif such weird songs. I luv My Anata cos it is a bit weird. It haf sum kinda Japanese folk melody mixed wif Beatlesque sound. David wrote it cos of Asia's obsession wif all things Japanese & cute. Oso like the way the Japanese phrases r part of the melody of the song. David did a really nice live rendition in his concert wif his backup singers & Mei on keyboard. Jordan Chan oso covered it in his recent concert. Here upload the mv on request by Lynn for 7 days.

The mv really goes wif the song wif David dressed as samurai as well in a band imitating the Beatles. The other samurai apparently his hairdresser, Dick, who recently opened a salon & David went to the opening along wif Jay & Jolin.

You're making my knees weak and my heart skip many beats with the many gorgeous pics of David!!!! *heart stopped*

On "My Anata", perhaps I haven't scanned the lyrics and watched the MTV yet but I don't personally like the song very much. I thought Andrew's suggestion was a good one...... =P Great that David took his suggestion too..........thot David always goes with his way one, don't take in other people's suggestions.....guess I was wrong. =O)

hey zhao, its me skybebe (Victoria)....I was the one who posted earlier abt David's gorgeous pics...heehee! But forgot to leave my name..... =P

The pic you posted yesterday where david was with the 2 singers, boy, he looked really skinny - erm, he didn't look as nice leh.... =P

Okay, perhaps its juz me but I thot Sylvester (contestant on Singapore Idol) looked abit like David Tao esp last week when there was a short intro on Sylvester! I was so surprised, sat ram-rod straight when I saw Sylvester! However, original (David Tao) better! ;O)

Oiiii~!! that's the first song that mark the discovery of 'David Tao' for me!! XD XD I was watching the MV with my bro & we thought 'How creative of him to mixed Japanese & Chinese wording together~ plus the music rocks & the MV so hilariuos!'
we immediately d/l the song & got hook to DT ever since! so I always thought 'My Anata' as the debut for the album 'Black Tangerine', kinda silly ne?

nyaaaa~ I wanna hear Jordan Chan ver. [Jordan was my first Chinese star craze ~ lol coz he such a funny guy <3]

Hi hi Skybebe (Victoria), u the one getting married & wanting to sing David's song rite? Yeah, been hearing abt Sylvester & he sang Katrina but not so good. I thot he looked more like Anson Hu.

Zoe my dear so glad u think My Anata as debut 4 BT album, David will be happy dat at least sumone like his choice of intro hehehehehehehehe. Erm not sure if Jordan is releasing dvd of his concert, but will find out & see if he included My Anata.

zhaodi, i hope you can manage to fix the problem of dates and times of people leaving comments on your blog as it is highly misleading :)

anyway, i LOVE My Anata mv. seeing Dave dressed up in a suit (with SPORTS SHOES), with a guitar in a room on tatami, and a band behind him: never fails to bring "The Beatles" to my mind.

one fine day when you get to watch a Soul Power concert live, you will know how HIGH one can get jumping along with DT when he sings this song! :)
don't say i didn't remind you to save your energy for this jumping exercise. haha

lastly, Dick is indeed featured in My Anata mv. actually he is also featured in several of Jay Chou's MVs, the one that i remember most vividly, is the one abt a ping pong match (i don't know what's the song name). Jay interestingly likes to include many of his "staff" (?) / friends in his MVs, including his assistants, make-up artist etc

ummm~ the reason I thought 'My Anata' a debut for BT coz I saw it before 'Black Tangerine' MV & I didn't realise at the time that the same person who did the amusing 'My Anata'~[funny eh?] goshhh he show alot of power in BT :D but I guess the whole album, I like 'Dear God' the most~!! so meaningful <3 <3

Zhao said...

Hullo Fei, yah, its annoying the comments dun show date & time like my new shoutbox. See what I can do okie. Yes looking foward to attending DT's concert but I hope in US as smaller & more intimate <3<3<3 hehehehhehhehehhe maybe can see him eye to eye. My friend went to Eason in US & said it was the best. Thx 4 confirming that it was Dick. U r a girl after my heart Zoe kekekekekekkeke cos u like the songs I like in BT album. But then I do love all his songs but maybe diff degrees.
