Finally, something on TVB to watch for after The Uninvited Date (aka Man Without Shadows)!! Starring who else but my dear Tavia? =P After Raymond Lam, Raymond Wong, and Ruco Chan (lol at all the Rs), a new pairing is taking over my heart! Kenneth Ma and Tavia Yeung! I love love love Tavia so much that I basically like all her pairings, even the pairing that was never to be - Steven Ma + Tavia Yeung. Not a big fan of Ron and Bosco + Tavia, but still ok. =D Even Alex Fong + Tavia Yeung in Building Blocks of Life was good. Such is the level of her acting and chemistry with all her paired up actors.

I so want this drama to do well in the ratings department so that TV station will be forced to open their eyes as to the treasure that they are being gifted with. Before she finally despairs and leaves, please, oh please, give her her due recognition!!

So, here I bring a translation of the theme song of The Hippocratic Crush by Joey Yung. Not a fan of Joey the actress, but I am very excited that she is singing a tvb theme song again!! The song likens life to a drama serial, hence the title. Will we be able to act out each scene to our satisfaction, before the story ends, at an unknown time in the future? Will we be able to take hold of the moment and act on our purest feelings, without hesitation and pretense?

開首的一篇是某某出生
媽媽給寶寶奉上這一生 頭一吻
開端之後或晴或暗
怎麼走就像連續劇也
欠缺安穩

The first chapter begins with someone's birth
Mummy dedicating her whole life to her precious one, a kiss on the forehead
Brightness or darkness may follow after the opening
No matter which road we walk, it's like a drama serial
Lacking stability

或者　於某集我可抬頭欣賞到你
或者　一轉念便要失去你
或者　轉折漸太多　遺忘怎擁抱你
或者　擁緊偏已斷氣

Perhaps I'll lift my gaze and appreciate you one episode
Perhaps I'll lose you with one changed decision
Perhaps I'll forget how to embrace you as changes gradually accumulate
Perhaps breathing would have stopped when we embrace

情人们一呼一吸相愛到底　
結局或同樣
仍想將你我這幕　演得更理想
能修補即管修補　不要再想　
再一刻人便缺氧
熟悉的歌曲　等與你合唱

Lovers love with each breath they take
Even if the ending is the same
I still want to act out our scene more ideally
Fix everything that can be fixed, don't hesitate further
One moment more and we'll be out of breath
Waiting to sing that familiar song with you

新一章怎可是你我分開
可否改寫得像你我當初還相愛
只可惜上集難逆轉
傷感的下集仍然未播　我會修改

How can the new chapter be our separation?
Can it be rewritten like the beginning, when we were still in love?
But it's too difficult to salvage the previous episode
The sorrowful episode which follows is still unaired, I will amend it

如果　當晚没有分神来緊張佈置
如果　不必誤會再猜疑
如果　將對白說得平和　不加諷刺
如果　真的可有下次

If we hadn't got distracted trying to adorn our feelings nervously that night
If we don't misunderstand and suspect each other
If we speak the dialogue calmly, without adding satire
If there is really a 'next time'

情人们一呼一吸相愛到底　
結局或同樣
仍然能拖緊彼此　走絕地雪霜
如能重修好一雙　不要再想　
再一刻人便缺氧
明知可一起　不要再獨唱

Lovers love with each breath they take
Even if the ending is the same
Still, hold onto tightly to each other and walk through this snow-covered land
If one pair can be fixed, don't hesitate further
One moment more and we'll be out of breath
Don't sing alone anymore while knowing that you can be together

情人们一呼一吸相愛到底　
結局或同樣
仍想將你我这幕　演得更理想
如能重修好一雙　不要再想　
再一刻谁亦要退下场
多得你在場　多得我在場　天空也在場
演好這一章　呼吸太無常

Lovers love with each breath they take
Even if the ending is the same
I still want to act out our scene more ideally
If one pair can be fixed, don't hesitate further
One moment more and someone will have to leave the stage
Thankfully, you're here, I'm here and the sky also is here
Act out this chapter well, breathing is too unpredictable

Did I ever tell that I'm a big big big TAVIA YEUNG YI fan? I'm super attracted to those common people who work hard over time to make it big. Classic examples are Arashi and Tavia. I have no liking for those who make it big easily, or perhaps just slight contempt, and a huge dislike for most things over-rated.

Aniwaes, I'm watching this new tvb warehoused drama (For goodness sake, how many Tavia dramas have been warehoused!?!?!?! Her first lead, Sweetness In The Salt, was warehoused. Her second, Cupid Stupid, is now warehoused too.) called 恋爱星求人 Cupid Stupid. Steven Ma is inside too, and although many fungi fans are also Stevia fans, this is the very first time I'm rooting for Stevia. The drama is a romance themed one, and the theme song by Steven Ma is quite beautifully linked to the overarching theme  of star signs.

Here's my translation of the song. Do credit karened.vox.com if reposted!
