上海滩

Even though I watched the HK TVB drama series 上海滩 (The Bund) more than two decades ago, but up to this day I could still remember the casts (Hui Man Keong, Ting Lek, Fung Cheng Cheng) and surprisingly, the ending. Imagine how great is the impact. Most of the time I couldn't even remember the ending of the series that I watched few months back. And not forgetting the nostalgic 上海滩 theme song by 叶丽仪 (Francis Yip). 上海滩 ~ 一部永远的经典.



上海滩 - 叶丽仪

浪奔 浪流 万里涛涛江水永不休
淘尽了 世间事 混作滔滔一片潮流

是喜是愁 浪里分不清欢笑悲忧
成功失败 浪里看不出有未有

爱你恨你 问君知否 似大江一发不收
转千弯转千滩 亦未平复此中争斗

又有喜 又有愁 就算分不清欢笑悲忧
仍愿翻 百千浪 在我心中起伏够


I found the following MTV from YouTube yesterday night.

Walao.. Chow Yuen Fatt manyak muda leh.. Hahahahaa.. :P

千个梦 通通关于你未算多

愿你静听痴痴的我
为了你 我誓愿
以后爱定你一个

I also remember HMK being gunned down wor...

The remake with Sunny Chan and Lam Ka Dong cannot compare with the original, although Sunny Chan is quite comparable to Chow YF's HMK (cool enough!).

I also want to visit Shanghai one day. Shall we make it a blogger trip then?? :D I can imagine all the weird and wonderful photos that will come out!!

Chen said...

misti,
Hahhaha, I only have selective memories leh... Cannot remember everything mah, since i don't have "big" brain. Big brain more brain cells mah.. Hahhahahha...
*continue sampat-ing*

Yeah, I too prefer the original version. More syiok ;) I had a good time yesterday night with Angel reminiscing the old tvb drama series in the 80's, including searching for the songs and MTV in youtube. LOL

Blogger trip to Shanghai? Wah... that would be fun. Imagine we all painting the town red. Hhahahhha...

Selba said...

So nice to hear the song again!!!

"The Bund" is one of the best HK TVB drama series. You brought back a nostalgic moment :)

Chen said...

selba,
Glad u enjoy the song. Yeah, that is a classic song, and a classic TVB drama series of yesteryears. I know there's a Malay artist who can sing that song too :)

Selba said...

Oh... really? Who is the malay artist who can sing that song?

Chow Yuen Fatt is really gorgeous especially in the old days (late 80s), don't you think? ;)

Chen said...

selba,
i dunno her full name but she is known as Regina. I have heard her singing the song thrice :)

Chow Yuen Fatt still look gorgeous even up to today. Hahaha, the mature look ;)
