Song of the Week: Only Have Feelings for You

Two versions of this song available: Fahrenheit’s duet with S.H.E.’s Hebe, and JJ Lin’s version. Both are excellent!

The duet version first came out in 2006 as an insert song in the Taiwanese drama Tokyo Juliet. It’s cute, reflecting the image of a happy couple (mostly because their voices flow together nicely and the lyrics seem to reflect their heart-felt emotions to each other).

On the other hand, JJ Lin twists things up a bit. He incorporates more guitar and drums into the instrumental, giving the whole song a bad boy, rock’n’roll feel. But, the original lyrics and meaning is still there, sort of like the idea that even the rowdiest hooligan can also be tamed by love.

I recommend the first for those of you who love cute things. JJ Lin’s version is more upbeat and suited for those who like mainstream music. But, check both of them out! They’re definitely the type of song that will lift up your spirits if you’ve been down like me recently. Enjoy~ :3

Below is a link to song. The Chinese lyrics are also included, and an English translation to the best of my abilities (sadly, the beauty and poetic-ness of the song failed to transfer over, which makes the song sound just awkward).

Chinese Lyrics:
无解的眼神
心像海底针
光是猜测我食欲不振
有点烦人又有点迷人

浪漫没天份
反应够迟钝
不够谨慎花挑错颜色
但很矛盾喜欢你的笨

微笑再美再甜
不是你的都不特别
眼泪再苦再咸
有你安慰又是晴天
靠的再近再贴
少了拥抱就算太远
全世界只对你有感觉

玩的再疯再野
你瞪一眼我就收敛
马路再宽再远
只要你牵就很安全
我会又乖又黏
温柔体贴绝不敷衍
我只对你有感觉

体贴却黏人
爱哭却温顺
有时天真有时很邪恶
对你耍狠就是舍不得

请吸收养分
让脑袋平衡
要你现身动作慢吞吞
怎麽承认我非你不可

微笑再美再甜
不是你的都不特别
眼泪再苦再咸
有你安慰又是晴天
靠的再近再贴
少了拥抱就算太远
全世界只对你有感觉

玩的再疯再野
你瞪一眼我就收敛
马路再宽再远
只要你牵就很安全
我会又乖又黏
温柔体贴绝不敷衍
我只对你有感觉

微笑再美再甜
不是你的都不特别
眼泪再苦再咸
有你安慰又是晴天
靠的再近再贴
少了拥抱就算太远
全世界只对你有感觉

玩的再疯再野
你瞪一眼我就收敛
马路再宽再远
只要你牵就很安全
我会又乖又黏
温柔体贴绝不敷衍
我只对你有感觉

English Translation:
Eyes that reveal nothing,
A heart like needles under the sea.
I’m always guessing, I can’t eat well.
It’s kind of annoying, kind of mesmerizing.

I’m hopeless in romance,
And slow in reaction.
I’m not careful enough,
And picked the wrong color of flowers.
It’s kind of contradictory, but I like your clumsiness

A smile, no matter how sweet or how beautiful,
If it’s not yours, it’s not special.
Tears, no matter how bitter or how salty,
If you’re the one comforting me, it’s a bright day.
No matter how close you,
If there’s no hug, you’re still too far.
In the whole world, I only have feelings for you .

No matter how crazily or wildly I party,
I’ll be obedient if you glare.
No matter how far or how wide the road is,
If you’re holding my hand, it’ll be safe.
I’ll be good and loyal,
Gentle, considerate, honest.
I only have feelings for you.

Thoughtful and loyal,
Likes to cry, but also docile.
Sometimes naive, sometimes really evil.
But I’m reluctant to be cruel to you.

Please take more nutrients,
Let your brain become balanced.
I want you to appear, but you’re always so slow.
How am I supposed to admit
That I want you and only you?

A smile, no matter how sweet or how beautiful,
If it’s not yours, it’s not special.
Tears, no matter how bitter or how salty,
If you’re the one comforting me, it’s a bright day.
No matter how close you,
If there’s no hug, you’re still too far.
In the whole world, I only have feelings for you.

No matter how crazily or wildly I party,
I’ll be obedient if you glare.
No matter how far or how wide the road is,
If you’re holding my hand, it’ll be safe.
I’ll be good and loyal,
Gentle, considerate, honest.
I only have feelings for you.
