Inspiring, right? They came to my mind when I heard this song 說到愛 from Singaporean singer 蔡健雅. Love the song the first time I heard it from the radio. I was attached initially by the singer’s voice and its melody. I wasn’t quite aware of the lyrics at that time. But later I managed to grasp a mp3 file and replayed it dozens times on a Saturday driving my kids to play school. Now I am classifying it one of the best songs I ever heard in life.

The lyric is a mumble from a lonely heart who felt lagging behind too many things in life. This is quite a common theme of pop songs. But Tanya sung it in a very honest voice which I felt coming from the bottom of her heart. She varied her tone along with an excellent flow of music arrangement and messages in lyric. The song lasts about four minutes. But it manages to move my mood from low to high and back on earth again…. See if you will feel the same:

歌詞

世界收起了笑容似乎想　提醒我些什麼
電視喃喃自語著為什麼　我卻變得沉默
永遠都追不上那些人那事物消逝的速度
說到愛　如果你感覺到寂寞
Let’s sing it out of love

有多久時間忘了去擁抱　身邊愛的朋友
懷疑幸福的存在那瞬間　其實早就擁有
多盼望有一段旅程拜訪每張熟悉的笑容
說到愛　就算是還似懂非懂
Let’s sing it out of love

subaba lubaba lubaba dududu lubaba lubaba lu
Sing it out of love~love~love

眼前飛過的蝴蝶也許是　誰在想念著我
那句我愛你雖然難開口　我想現在就說
生命太多遺憾每一分每一秒我都會緊握
說到愛　當你需要我陪著你
Let’s sing it out of love

Sing it out of love~love~love
subaba lubaba lubaba dududu lubaba lubaba lu
Sing it out of love~love~love
subaba lubaba lubaba dududu lubaba lubaba lu
Sing it out of love~love~love…

補充資料

第一主打單曲【說到愛】風格與過去我們熟悉的Tanya相當不同，編曲的空間感交織出偌大的格局，讓人彷彿置身壯麗的大教堂，而歌詞層次由外而內、從對世界的感觸、到對周圍人群的關懷，最後回歸渺小的自我，強調的是「珍惜」。而值得強調的地方是第三段歌詞裡所提及的﹝眼前的蝴蝶飛過，是誰在偷偷想念著我… 其實來自於Tanya的真實經歷。某天Tanya在窗邊看見一群蝴蝶飛過，她覺得奇怪，住處的高度應該是不會有那麼多蝴蝶飛過才是，於是上網查詢了這樣的畫面是不是代表著什麼意義，結果發現一群蝴蝶飛過眼前代表著可能有親近的人將要離去。不久後Tanya便得知父親在新加坡過世的消息，那些蝴蝶彷彿是父親傳達了最後的思念。於是這段歌詞對於Tanya而言相當深刻且格外具有意義，聽完這段故事因由的朋友們也都無不為之動容。

I am playing golf for some 4 years. I see myself an analogical type learner who likes to understand very details of every swinging motion. I often introduce myself as a “golfing technician” when meeting new buddies.

There are a dozen golf books and DVD at home. Adding with the countless number of golf magazines and online videos I have read and watched now and then I thought myself quite knowledgeable in major modern golfing theories.

Not any more until I came across Jeffrey Mann’s website.

Whatever I have read and watched, Jeffery have gone through them, double folded in volume; and he made much more critical and convincing reviews using his professional knowledge on anatomy & physiology. His writing has cleared many doubts on my mind for years over conflicting recommendations from other pros.

Reading Jeff’s writing has helped holding me back from practicing some stupid swing acts. I feel much more confident now when I “feel” something that goes in line with Jeff’s recommendations.

Jeff’s web site is my biggest discovery as a Christmas gift to myself in 2011.
