Do I Do I

Watched repeat of Power school & its indeed Yanzi so hopefully David will be on nxt week. Yanzi was super cute & brought her dog Norman while Chih-ling brought hers called Coffee. For once was able to tolerate her singing as she seemed to have matured & sounded really good live. Sry to hear abt her breakup ... hmmm ... maybe should hook up with David heehee just kidding ^__^
Apart from that not much news abt David as he should be heading to LA for a mth break so spending Xmas & New Year there I guess, even tho supposedly he was invited to sing with China Supergirls on 12/31 *hope not* Oh here's vote for yr fav cm in China, Bibi is way ahead *go Bibi go* & last time I checked David's Sprite ad was 3rd. He is 16 from the top if u wanna vote, can vote hourly till Dec end. Info credit Davten yahoo grp Also dun forget he will be attending Renci Charity Show here on 01/08. Tickets available from SGFC.
So free time to answer requests. Zoe I think u wanted translation of the word game David did on Ultrasound docu but dun understand sum sry:
Sting - good music
racing car - Ferrari
blue - first album's cover
17 year old - WaWa's lyrics
LA - comfortable
KTV - (don't understand)
friend's song - father
911 - horror
women - I like (laugh)
Jerry Springer's show - rubbish
mobile phone - intrusive(?)
Lou Dayou - (don't understand)
tears - I cannot weep anymore
John Lennon - my friend
American - naive
& sumone wanted translation of Do I Do I or the meaning, I think the lyrics self-explanatory:
Do I Do I
You said you can't be bothered with me
I am like a train rushing everywhere
You really understand me
Even when my thoughts are going in all directions
I only want to live happily and sleep well at night
So everything you say OK, I am also OK
If a cool dude is supposed to fall for a hot babe
Then perhaps we are really the most compatible
Tell me do I do I my baby
I just can't control myself, my heart will fly around
Tell me do I do I my baby
Must I really give up my carefree ways
You ask me to make a choice, but how do I know which is right
I really care for you, but I need to think for myself not for others
Music by David Tao, lyrics by WaWa, sang by David Tao
Such a great little song, rather Beatlesque & the most incredible ending for a chinese song. Talking abt ending, song from Leo Ku's new album called Sleeping Beauty has rather similar ending to Lullaby, still for sure other songs must have ending with piano tinkling & whispered good night. But then David has always been an innovator. Just remembered he used classical music seamlessly in Who do you love mv. In the beginning Debussy & Rachmaninov in the middle, both beautifully inserted to blend with the mood of the music video which make me really excited for his future work in movie soundtrack.
The last soundtrack I really enjoyed is 2046 by Umebayashi Shigeru, really wonderful & the image keep popping in my mind is the crazy kiss between Tony & Gongli. Even though she appeared for the shortest time, Gongli still left the most lasting impression & it would appeared she did it again in Memoirs earning high praise for her walkon role with even the word 'Oscar' being used. She looks incredible too, smouldering & sexy, tho her makeup much too contemporary for a geisha *sigh*
