a new find:
傲骨 - 譚詠麟 Proud, sung by Alan Tam
作詞:盧國沾 lyrics: lo kwok tsim 作曲:譚詠麟 song: alan tam
誰知我內心多苦悶 一切沒法如願 誰知我內心多苦悶 因我甚覺疲倦 但到底這鬥爭沒有完 想逼我改變 有誰會知我心內 有極強信念
從開始至今多考驗 使我步法常亂 從開始至今多考驗 手裡利劍常斷 話到底我瞭解好清楚 不肯趁風轉 有時我想去屈服 想起也心酸
不可以 重覆這怒叫聲 自信他朝一柱擎天 沒法屈膝在苦困前 討厭加討厭

《每當變幻時》When Change Occurs 日本原曲:《莎韻之鐘》 作曲:古賀政男 composer: masao koga 填詞︰盧國沾 lyrics: lo kwok tsim 演唱︰薰妮 (1977年) sung by: fanny
懷緬過去常陶醉 一半樂事 一半令人流淚 夢如人生 快樂永記取 悲苦深刻藏骨髓
韶華去 四季暗中追隨 逝去了的都已逝去 啊啊... 常見明月掛天邊 每當變幻時 便知時光去
懷緬過去常陶醉 想到舊事 歡笑面常流淚 夢如人生 試問誰能料 石頭他朝成翡翠
*如情侶 你我有心追隨 遇到半點風雨便思退 啊啊 常見紅日照東方 每當見夕陽 便知時光去

相對無言 - 關正傑 Speechless Reunion, sung by Michael Kwan 作曲:Randy Sparks (composer) 作詞:盧國沾 lyrics: lo kwok tsim
朋友記得那天共你初初見面 談到你的理想並祝他朝兌現 誰不知分開只有數年 共你相逢先感覺到兩家亦在變
講起理想大家苦笑共對 說起往年共你相對無言 如今雙方痛楚在於只顧實際 才令你我理想改變
朋友放聲痛哭或者得到快樂 時間永不再返夢想不可再現 人一生匆匆三數十年 莫怨當年輕輕錯失機會萬遍
要若回頭未必可再遇見 你的往年未必勝目前 大家舉痛飲 大家一再互勉 期望你我運氣轉變
(NOTE: wrong lyricist noted in video blurp)
very different sentiment to the original english lyrics!

cheng kwok kong at his most poetic:
漣漪-陳百強 Ripples, sung by Danny Chan 詞:鄭國江 lyrics: cheng kwok kong 曲:陳百強 composer: danny chan
生活靜靜似是湖水 全為你泛起生氣 全為你泛起了漣漪 歡笑全為你起
生活淡淡似是流水 全因為你變出千般美 全因為你變出百樣喜 留下歡欣的印記
靜默亦似歌 那感覺象詩 甜蜜是眼中的癡癡意 做夢也記起這一串日子 幻想得到的優美

愛你變成害你 - 羅文 Love Becomes Hurt, version sung by Roman Tam 曲︰顧嘉輝 composer: joseph koo 詞︰黃霑 lyrics: james wong
什麼是情 什麼是愛 為什麼愛會變成害 我愛你變成害你 萬種恩情變禍災
什麼是好 什麼是歹 為什麼好會變成歹 我愛你變成害你 千番好意竟成歪
難道人生真是孽海 三頭六臂跳不出來 難道人生只有悲哀 千恩萬愛都不存在
我沒有恨 我只有愛 為什麼偏會把你害 我愛你變成害你 早知害你我不愛
難道人生真是苦海 神仙也是跳不出來 難道人生只有黑暗 光明永遠都不存在
我沒有恨 我只有愛 為什麼恨來愛不來 我愛你變成害你 早知害你我不愛
this is the original, with slightly different lyrics:

here are two very similar songs (thematically), lyrics by the same guy, and both sung by two male singers, which is unusual for duets.
煙花句 - 歐丁玉/張學友 Transient Words, sung by Michael Au/Jackie Cheung 曲︰SHINJI TANIMURA/YUZO KAYAMA (composers) 詞︰潘源良 lyricist: pun yuen leung
張︰曾在某遠處灑過傷心眼淚 還幸有你共一醉 是你跟我說讓我清醒的句子 叫我不用為她再枉追
歐︰其實我對你所說的安慰話 全屬試試看沒根据 是這麼數句在某天所聽到的 可叫心事暫且告退
張︰夢似煙花 心似水 來和去 實也是虛 一切終須過去 只好奮起面對 愁或悶亦似一醉
合︰夢似煙花 心似水 來和去 實也是虛 一切終須過去 只好奮起面對 愁或悶亦似一醉
歐︰然後卻到我心裡多麼困累 其實怕看見夢粉碎 幸有一個你又唱出煙花句子 叫我心內頓感有暖風吹
張︰誰沒有試過哭笑悲歡散聚 途上碰上你是生趣 又再一次醉 共唱出煙花句子 一切憂患是非快逝去
合︰共你舉杯又重聚 回頭看年月似水 一切終須過去 煙花再閃下去 情共義在我心裡
總有你鼓勵 - 倫永亮/李國祥 But for Your Support, sung by Anthony Lun/K.C. Lee 曲︰李子恆/吳奇隆 composers: lee chi hang/nicky wu 詞︰潘源良 lyrics: poon yuen leung
別離夜 像溶化了一切 夜雨中她的影子漸細 在消失的那刻方知過去這關係 再經不起這風雨沖洗
別離夜 夢和愛已關閉 夜雨中他將身份代替 為她舉起傘子擋開我眼裡的淚 瞬息間經已取走了一切
誰叫我這晚竟會跟你相遇 兩心正好枯萎 誰叫我這晚竟會又重遇你 同在情路跌低
笑一聲真湊巧 哭也找到安慰 就像痛苦已再不有關係 熱情就算枉費 友情同樣美麗 讓無盡暖意回歸
也許一生到底 一切超出估計 但是我總會找到你鼓勵 熱情就算枉費 友情同樣美麗 恨愁用歌聲代替
未來夢 就如世界一切 沒有一些東西可預計 但始終都去找 只因有你再鼓勵 再不必將我的心去關閉

When I was triapsing around Hua Shan off Xi'An, this was the song I was singing to myself (in my head).

He may not have been, but he sure as hell felt he was invincible!
A few good things did come out of his reign. As least, he united the writing of Chinese characters. It is difficult enough as it is, imagine having to learn write at least 4 other different squiggles for a single Chinese character!

It is difficult enough as it is, imagine having to learn write at least 4 other different squiggles for a single Chinese character! oh, i don't revile him like a lot of historians did. his standardization of not just the language but of measurements alone is enough for posterity.  and despite his sense of invincibility, he didn't use his own body as the basis of length and weight, unlike some other monarch, resulting in a nonsensical system of measurements. *rolleyes*

a rare talent, sam hui is equally well-known for his working class/social conscience songs and his more poetic ones. here are two examples of the latter. he readily admits that he often borrows lines of poetry from the 300 Tang Poems and compilations of Song Prose. his parents were involved in cantopera and he grew up appreciating both chinese poetry and cantopera lyrics, so he often drew from these sources when composing.
雙星情歌 - 許冠傑 Binary Star Romance, written and sung by Sam Hui 曲︰許冠傑 詞︰許冠傑
曳搖共對輕舟飄 互傳誓約慶春曉 兩心相邀影相照 願化海鷗輕唱悅情調
艷陽下與妹相親 望諧白首永不分 美景醉人心相允 緣柳花間相對訂緣份
*心兩牽 萬里阻隔相思愛莫變 離別悽酸今朝似未見 明日對花憶卿面
淚殘夢了燭影深 月明獨照冷鴛枕 醉擁孤衾悲不禁 夜半飲泣空帳獨懷憾
浪子心聲 - 許冠傑 The Prodigal Temperament*, sung by Sam Hui 曲︰許冠傑 composer: Sam Hui 詞︰許冠傑/黎彼得 lyrics: Sam Hui, Lai Pei Tak
難分真與假 人面多險詐 幾許有共享榮華 簷畔水滴不分差
無知井裡蛙 徒望添聲價 空得意目光如麻 誰料金屋變敗瓦
*命裡有時終須有 命裡無時莫強求
雷聲風雨打 何用多驚怕 心公正白璧無瑕 行善積德最樂也
人比海裡沙 毋用多牽掛 君可見漫天落霞 名利息間似霧化
(*approximate meaning of chinese title--some things aren't translatable)
and i should note that sam hui's working class songs are the exceptions to my general inclination of needing to like melody and lyrics equally well to really appreciate the lyrics. because most of his songs of this genre are basically words with some music accompaniment, it's the lyrics that matter.
