Song of the week: Little Dimples by JJ Lin

I’ll be short and snappy about this one. This week’s focus is on JJ Lin’s duet with Charlene Choi (from the Hong-Kong group  Twins): 小酒窝 (Little Dimples).

Basically: The music is pretty. The MV is cute. The lyrics are sweet and meaningful. The artist JJ Lin is a BAMF (no joke).

Conclusion: ♥ HEART ♥ and you should go listen to it 😉

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:
JJ:我还在寻找 一个依靠 和一个拥抱
谁替我祈祷替我烦恼为我生气为我闹

SA:幸福开始有预兆缘分让我们慢慢紧靠
然后孤单被吞没了无聊变得有话聊有变化了

合:小酒窝长睫毛 是你最美的记号
SA:我每天睡不着 想念你的微笑
你不知道 你对我多么重要
(JJ:你不知道 多么重要)
SA:有了你生命完整的刚好

合:小酒窝长睫毛 迷人的无可救药
JJ:我放慢了步调 感觉像是喝醉了
合:终于找到心有灵犀的美好
一辈子暖暖的好 我永远爱你到老

SA:幸福开始有预兆缘分让我们慢慢紧靠
然后孤单被吞没了无聊变得有话聊有变化了

合:小酒窝长睫毛 是你最美的记号
SA:我每天睡不着 想念你的微笑
你不知道 你对我多么重要
(JJ:你不知道 多么重要)
SA:有了你生命完整的刚好

合:小酒窝长睫毛 迷人的无可救药
JJ:我放慢了步调 感觉像是喝醉了
合:终于找到心有灵犀的美好
一辈子暖暖的好 我永远爱你到老

WO~

English translation:
JJ: I’m still searching for  someone to rely on, and someone to hug
Who will pray for me? Worry for me? Get mad and fight for me?

SA: Happiness is slowly forming; Fate has slowly brought us together
Loneliness has disappeared, boredom turned into socialization. Things have changed

Together: Little dimples, long eyelashes. These are you most beautiful features
SA: Every day, I can’t sleep well, longing to see your smile
You don’t know how important you are to me
With you, my life is perfectly complete.

Together: Little dimples, long eyelashes. So irresistibly mesmerizing.
I slowed my pace. It as if I’m drunk.
Together: I’ve finally found the wonder of having a heart-to-heart conversation
A lifetime of warm happiness. I’ll love you forever.

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

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.
