“I Like Pie” by Gordon Webster.  This is a really awesome song, and is literally guaranteed to fill the floor. 

I figured this would be a great place to start off my next series: FOOD! It’s really ridiculous how many food songs there are out there.

I kind of suspected that this was Mayday’s music when I first listened to it. And sure enough, it is!

This is also the theme song for the Taiwanese TV show, Good times (美好年代）- which is what got me googling all of this.

The lyrics are really well-written! (although half the time I literally had to pause the MV just to read the lyrics properly especially during the verses. Obviously it is another sign to revise my Mandarin again)

You’ve cried too tiringly. You’ve been hurt too deeply. You’ve loved too foolishly. You’ve bawled as if the end of the world is approaching. So you listen to slow songs– really, really slow songs that make you feel like your heart is being pierced by knives. Isn’t it time to change the choice of songs?

SONG OF THE DAY #156

5566《月兒光光》

I promised the twin that day 156 is dedicated to 56, so here it is! I actually don’t know many 56 songs out of drama OSTs. This is a rare non drama song I really love from 56

SONG OF THE DAY #88

5566《存在》

I absolutely love this song! It’s my favourite song from 56, maybe cause I’m so in love with the drama so this song automatically became my favourite. Lyrics and melody is so beautiful

My sister brainwashed nine year old me with this song!

My Father, the YouTube Star

I always knew my father loved food. I just didn’t know he’d been showing hundreds of thousands of people how to cook it.

My dad makes enough in each month’s ad revenues to take my mom out for a nice lunch. Making the clips is a lot of work. The two of them test each recipe a half-dozen times before committing it to film. Dad is behind the camera and editing the footage; it’s usually my mom’s hands demonstrating. They don’t speak in the videos. They say they’re embarrassed by their spoken English and feel more comfortable using onscreen text, in Chinese and English, for instruction. Writing and translating this adds several more hours of work.

“Why?” I asked during one of our weekly phone conversations. “Do you want a show on the Food Network or something?”

“You really want to know?” my dad asked in Chinese. “Your mom’s great-grandmother used to cook amazing Shanghainese food for her. She would dream about it. But when your mom was finally old enough to ask for the recipes, her great-grandmother had already developed dementia. She couldn’t even remember cooking those dishes. The only thing your mom had left was the memory of her taste. We’re afraid that if you wanted to eat your childhood dishes, and one day we’re both no longer around, you wouldn’t know how to cook it.”
