I was listening to my favourite radio station 988 fm when the DJ on duty, Jian Wei chose the song 爱情不能做比较 (when translated, it means Love Is Incomparable)to be dedicated to the listeners. Heard that today is Jian Wei's last day at 988fm. I like to listen to his soothing voice and he has been doing a great job in hosting the programme. Wish him all the best.
Most people would reckon the song is sung by Victor Wong [品冠] but it was originally composed and sung by Baby, a Malaysian boy group who has now dysfunction as one of the member planned to continue his studies in Australia few years back. In some ways, the song was made popular by Victor Wong because he's more well-known. Anyway, I personally felt that Baby did a better job in bringing out the emotion and the significance of this song. Conversely, Victor's version was less emo and the tempo of the song was slightly modified, which I thought somewhat affected the "feel" of the song all together.
The video of this song can be found here and the karaoke version, here. It's a rather sad song but touching nonetheless. Perhaps the fact that the song is viewed (or sung) from the male's perspective, it gives a different feel to the song. Had it been sung by a female singer, it would have given a different perspective to the song, I suppose.
If you happen to visit the Karaoke lounge next time, try out this song. It seems to be an all time favourite to some people. Here is the lyrics and the pinyin.
爱情不能做比较
车子里收音机空气中还飘着雨
che zi li shou yin ji kong qi zhong hai piao zhe yu
在这个深夜里 你应该在他那里
zai zhe ge shen ye li, ni ying gai zai ta na li
有多久没再遇见你 房里没了你的气息
you duo jiu mei zai yu jian ni, fang li mei le ni de qi xi
而我终于扔掉了你给我的所有东西
er wo zhong yu reng diao le ni gei wo de suo you dong xi
我可以填满了生活里每寸空隙
wo ke yi tian man le sheng huo li mei cun kong xi
我知道不容易 但我仍试着继续
wo zhi dao bu rong yi, dan wo reng shi zhe ji xu
听说你比从前开心 我还能有怎样的情绪
ting shuo ni bi cong qian kai xin, wo hai neng you zen yang de qing xu
除了祝福 我不想再多说一句
chu le zhu fu, wo bu xiang zai duo shuo yi ju
他很好 他多好 这些我并不想要知道
ta hen hao, ta duo hao, zhe xie wo bing bu xiang yao zhi dao
再难忘掉 多狂烈的拥抱 这回忆他怎么给不到
zai nan wang diao, duo kuang lie de yong bao, zhe hui yi ta zen mo gei bu dao
他多好 和我不同的好 最后是谁不重要
ta hen hao, he wo bu tong de hao, zui hou shi shui bu zhong yao
因为我知道 爱情不能做比较
yin wei wo zhi dao ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao
我可以填满了生活里每寸空隙
wo ke yi tian man le sheng huo li mei cun kong xi
我知道不容易 但我仍试着继续
wo zhi dao bu rong yi, dan wo reng shi zhe ji xu
听说你比从前开心 我还能有怎样的情绪
ting shuo ni bi cong qian kai xin, wo hai neng you zen yang de qing xu
除了祝福 我不想再多说一句
chu le zhu fu, wo bu xiang zai duo shuo yi ju
他很好 他多好 这些我并不想要知道
ta hen hao, ta duo hao, zhe xie wo bing bu xiang yao zhi dao
再难忘掉 多狂烈的拥抱 这回忆他怎么给不到
zai nan wang diao, duo kuang lie de yong bao, zhe hui yi ta zen mo gei bu dao
他多好 和我不同的好 最后是谁不重要
ta hen hao, he wo bu tong de hao, zui hou shi shui bu zhong yao
因为我知道 爱情不能做比较
yin wei wo zhi dao ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao
就算是今天换一个人依靠 明天谁又比谁好
jiu suan shi jin tian huan yi ge ren yi kao, ming tian shui you bi shui hao
爱看不到 听不到 怎么做比较
ai kan bu dao, ting bu dao, zen mo zuo bi jiao
别再说 他很好 他多好
bie zai shuo, ta hen hao, ta duo hao
这些我并不需要知道zhe xie wo bing bu xu yao zhi dao
再难忘掉 多狂烈的拥抱 这回忆他怎么给的到
zai nan wang diao, duo kuang lie de yong bao, zhe hui yi ta zen mo gei de dao
他多好 和我不同的好 最后是谁不重要
ta duo hao, he wo bu tong de hao, zui hou shi shui bu zhong yao
因为我知道 爱情不能做比较
yin wei wo zhi dao, ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao
希望你知道 爱情不能做比较
xi wang ni zhi dao, ai qing bu neng zuo bi jiao
