My Longkang

How many of you have watched Dallas before? At one time, this series based in Texas and centred around the oil industry was once the rage of television viewers. People scheduled their lives around this show.

I just had to share this song with you. Please click on the link. It is about a guy who loves a girl but alas the girl’s dad is totally against it. The man accepts the finality of the situation and tells the lady he will still love her nevertheless. Anyway my grasp of the language is limited so if I am wrong, please don’t sue me hehehe.

I think it is a great song. I hope you like it.

I read in the papers about this show At the End of Daybreak by Ho Yuhang. This movie At The End of Daybreak will lead a pack of eight movies to be screened during the Hong Kong Film Festival (HKFF) 2010 from March 26 to March 28. Have any of you seen it? I googled for it and found this trailer

It must be a great movie. It won the NETPAC Award at the Locarno International Film Festival 2009 in Switzerland.

Smoke on the Water

Deep Purple is coming to perform at the Genting Arena of Stars on May 16. It is part of the legendary band’s Asia/Australia tour 2010. I haven’t heard of them for ages. I used to be be crazy over their music and played their songs right out loud. Until one day a lady called Ah Phong or was it Ah Imm who came over to my house and told me I was supposed to enjoy the music and not to entertain the whole neighbourhood.

This was not just a movie. It was an experience. Awesome.

I read that in conjunction with the Penang International Line Dance Carnival, renowned Taiwan artist Long Piao Piao will host a concert from 8pm to 9.30pm on the 21st of November. How many of you can forget her trademark voice?

How I wish I could attend that concert! If some Penang bloggers attend her concert, I hope they will post videos of her concert- A Grateful Heart concert. I would be ever so grateful.

My favorite is Fu Xin De Ren Fu Xin De Ren or loosely translated as changed heart or heart traitor is a song about hopeless unrequited love. How extreme love is soon followed by feelings of hatred and regret for waiting and hoping for too long.

Another Long Piao Piao song : about a man she loved, she lost and she cannot get him back.

I hurt myself in a fall. No excuses really, I saw what wasn’t there due to my new bifocals. They are now scratched but not broken. Still usable, thank goodness. It wasn’t too bad at first. Nothing that some painkillers couldn’t heal. But after a nap, I couldn’t get out of bed. Mrs BB had to be hauled in to lift me up like a sack of potatoes. The back is often taken for granted. I am alright now of course unless I lie down. Once I lie down, I have a problem in getting up again.
