My Ringtone

夕陽之歌 is my mobile phone default ringtone for the past 4 years (from Nokia 3315 to Nokia 6610i to my current Nokia N73, I’m still using the same default ringtone). Is this what we called as "长情"? 夕陽之歌 (Song of sunset) is the theme song of the movie 英雄本色III 夕陽之歌 (A Better Tomorrow III, released in 1989, by Chow Yuen Fatt, Tony Leung Kar Fai & Anita Mui). Pink Winnie said she dunno this song, but I think likely she had heard this song in the past. I promised her to post this song up and here it is.

夕陽之歌 by Anita Mui


夕陽之歌 , 英雄本色III (梅艷芳)

斜阳无限 无奈只一息间灿烂
随云霞渐散 逝去的光彩不复还
迟迟年月 难耐这一生的变幻
如浮云聚散 缠结这沧桑的倦颜
漫长路 骤觉光阴退减
欢欣总短暂未再返
哪个看透我梦想是平淡

曾遇上几多风雨翻 编织我交错梦幻
曾遇你真心的臂弯 伴我走过患难
奔波中 心灰意淡
路上纷扰波折再一弯
一天想 想到归去但已晚

啊 天生孤单的我心暗淡
路上风霜哭笑再一弯
一天想 想到归去但已晚

There are 2 other similar songs (same music but with different lyrics by different singers).

千千阕歌 by Priscilla Chan/陈慧娴


千千阕歌 (陈慧娴)

徐徐回望 曾属於彼此的晚上
红红仍是你 赠我的心中艳阳
如流傻泪 祈望可体恤兼见谅
明晨离别你 路也许孤单得漫长
一瞬间太多东西要讲
可惜即将在各一方
只好深深把这刻尽凝望

来日纵使千千阕歌 飘於远方我路上
来日纵使千千晚星 亮过今晚月亮
都比不起这宵美丽
亦绝不可使我更欣赏
ah....因你今晚伴我唱
(因今宵的我可共你唱)
(都洗不清今晚我所想
因不知那天再共你唱)

临行临别才 顿感哀伤的漂亮
原来全是你 令我的思忆漫长
何年何月才 又可今宵一样
停留凝望里让眼睛讲彼此立场
当某天雨点轻敲你窗
当风声吹乱你构想
可否抽空想这张旧模样

This is the Chinese song 风中的承诺 by 李翊君.


风中的承诺 (李翊君)

昨夜的雨 惊醒我沉睡中的梦
迷惑的心 沾满着昨日的伤痛
冷冷的风 不再有往日的温柔
失去的爱 是否还能够再拥有
漫漫长路 谁能告诉我
究竟会有多少错
何处是我最终的居留

曾经在雨中对我说 今生今世相守
曾经在风中对我说 永远不离开我
多少缠绵编织成的梦
多少爱恨刻划的镜头
为何一切到了终究还是空

Same music but...
Different lyrics...
Different singers...
Different feel...
But all are sad songs
Which one is your favourite?

Mui Yim Fong!! ok ok, bad spelling, I should stick to Anita instead. used to love her songs, when she sings the low keys. sexayyyyyy.

I stick to the default *ring ring* tone on mine. not as imaginative... heheh!

The first time I heard the song was the one by Priscilla Chan, so I guess I'm used to listening her version as well.. :)

MNG said...

L B said...

I love the song! but I cant bring myself to put ringtones on my phone... never have, never did, never will... WHY?... You analyse for me? FOC?

mistipurple said...

i like the Anita version. her voice very character. but music on the 3rd one abit nicer, though abit digitalised, but doctored quite well with reverb and all.
overall, i will still go with Anita's. she sings with so much feeling. even when see her on video, can feel her angst.
(heh. abit my line of work. sori so cheong hei)
(i ever judge on karaoke. haha)

Chen said...

may,
I think the spelling is correct kua?
she will always remain as the pop queen in my heart although she passed away for almost 3 years oledi :(

U still use the default "ring ring" as the ring tone? Very classic :D Since I'm using the cordless phone for my house phone, so the ring tone is no longer "ring ring" too :P But the ring tone for my workplace is still "ring ring" :D

zeroimpact,
Most of her songs are nice :)

butt,
Indeed nostalgics :)
These are the songs in the late 80's, the songs of the yester-years.

Chen said...

However sony erricson has better sound quality for mp3.

rainbow angeles said...

after listening to the 3 songs for 24,921x (ie. 8,307x per song), i hv concluded that Anita Mui's is the best in "general", due to her liuliu kam doung voice, she managed to bring out the 'sadness' very well.

But then, the 3rd version (by wat's her name??) i likesss the lyrics. Make my heart very liuliu...

Finally hor... i want tell u... i couldn't download the songs fr. your lifelogger account!!! *bawls*

Chen said...

misti,
Kkekeke... Most of the liuliu gang (me, angel, may & you) all like anita's version the most :D Your job is still mysterious leh as long as i dunno wat issit about.. summore related to music :D

I sleep late yesterday, might be to compensate for sleeping early the day before? LOL. I went zzz at 8 something the night before :) I ate broth yesterday night. I like porridge... *Slurp* :D

Dentists not scary lah.. There are cute and good looking dentists around too !! Hahahah

angel,
wah...
*faint*
u listen so many times ah?
must salute u liao :P

I just told Misti, most of the liuliu gang liked Anita's version the most :D

I only know the chinese name of the third singer leh..李翊君. Dunno what is her english name.

U cannot download the songs ah? Don't worry. I can send u the mp3.
