奥浩哉短編集　赤

Another cracker, LOLs within the first few pages. Don’t tell people I tell you the online-reading link. [Warning: male gaze heavy]

Tat Ming Pair’s 禁色 is a rare and excellent piece of music on homosexuality (slash with homosexual tendency). The song explains itself, but again if you don’t speak Chinese, I’ve translated the lyrics according to the melody (only as closely as I could, the original lyrics are genius):

Rain by the door
ruthlessly interrupts us
splashing ragged hair again
Please don’t be scared
You are terrified, crying
Don’t fear, love is innocent

Please close the door
Place our hope in the box
Let me hold your hand again
Escape no more
from the folks’ ridicules
For you, I will to be condemned

Wish, wish a place
free of harm to our love
bleach not colours in our hearts
Wish, wish a day
we don’t have to endure
Set our colours free from our souls

Thousands of pains
bundled up in phantom’s heart
I won’t regret when I die
The clock has stopped
I am patiently waiting
fearing the rain at the door

Wish, wish a place
free of harm to our love
bleach not colours in our hearts
Wish, wish a day
we don’t have to endure
Set our colours free from our souls

If, if this place
has to do harm to love
bleach dull colours in our hearts
Let, let me now
vanish into this storm
reincarnate in a magic year

And of course, we can’t miss the cover by Denise Ho (yes, you know what she embodies):

Sandra B thanked her mother Helga B:

…for reminding her daughters that there’s no race, no religion, no class system, no color, nothing, no sexual orientation that makes us better than anyone else. We are all deserving of love.

If we need any religion at all, this would be our religion.

If we need any science to explain love, this would be our evolution.

Eason Chan is a great musician, but his music videos are (trying not to be too harsh) always a disaster, comparing with his talent. That of 大開眼戒 shows a boring love story of a couple. It’s not only uninspiring, it’s a complete waste of the song. I don’t care if it’s made of clips from a movie. Uninspiring is uninspiring. I may not personally like Prudence Liew’s singing that much, but I love the music video of her cover. So much more close to the content, so much more artistic.

If you don’t speak Chinese, I tried my best to translate the lyrics according to the melody:

Keep the lights off
May I first kiss you in the dark
If you see my veil is off, would you still hug me

Not to spoil the mood
Nobody knows the dark side of my heart
I can’t match, with my low man nature, how could I match you

Love, if you are curious
be prepared to meet my scary face
Nobody is
pure as snow

Confronting such appalling truth
is like walking on a razor blade
When we are bare, hope I
won’t c-c-cut you [running out of words + Gaga influence]

Please be relaxed
You don’t have to be as close as that
If I show my far-from-flawless bod, just turn away

I was born like this
If only genes can be reoriented
Decompose, recompose me for you, if that makes you happy

Love, if you are curious
be prepared to meet my scary face
Nobody is pure as snow

Confronting such appalling truth
is like walking on a razor blade
But you know everyone has a secret

Pairs of hands, pairs of legs
make you fall in love with me. No barriers
You love me, just don’t care my extra ears
Explore free with me

Love, if you are curious
be prepared to meet my scary face
Nobody is pure as snow

For your curiosity
are you ready to love me my dear
If you like Frankenstein, I am a beauty

GIRLS WHO ARE BOYS WHO LIKE BOYS TO BE GIRLS WHO DO BOYS LIKE THEY’RE GIRLS WHO DO GIRLS LIKE THEY’RE BOYS ALWAYS SHOULD BE SOMEONE YOU REALLY LOVE
