Tanya

思念 - 蔡健雅


Tanya's new song. It has a similar vibe as 達爾文 last year, which happens to be my favorite song of 2007.











菸不離手把自己灌醉醉
醒過後笑自己有多狼狽
泡的咖啡有苦的滋味
我睜開了眼忘記你是誰


Tanya's smooth-silky voice, indie folk-rocker image, and songwriting skills slowly and solidly brought her popularity and recognition throughout the past 11 years. You never hear or see her in tabloid papers. You'll only get to know her through her music and lyrics. Again, it's the authenticity that makes her one of my favorite singer-songwriters.

First heard of Tanya Chua back in 2000 when I first listened to 903, at the time True Love was a big hit at the station. At that time, 903 was still a medium that endorses indie music, unlike today. Then in 2002, Jan Lamb used her song Day & Night as the ending-theme song for the same titled radio drama featuring Jacky Cheung and Sandy Lam.


Looking back, 903 really had a huge influence on my music taste and interest. However, since a while back the station has changed course and indie music is no longer played as often....



My Favorite Tanya Tunes:

01 . 達爾文: 保持單身 忍不住又沉淪 兜著圈子來去又是苦等


02. True Love: 然後安慰自己緣分自有安排　縱然心中充滿了脆弱無奈


03. Day & Night: 明明擁抱過　卻還像夢一樣不實在


04. 夜盲症: 為何一到黃昏　寂寞好深　遮住回你懷裡的路程


05. 二手煙: 愛有時像二手煙　才剛熄滅已蔓延


06. 如果你愛我: 如果說我愛著你 而你卻比較愛自己 我想那就不是我的問題 那不過是現代人的愛情


07. 呼吸: 呼吸 我需要多一點空氣 思念幾乎讓人窒息　沉溺漆黑無聲的海底


08. 陌生人: 當我們擦身而過　那短短一秒鐘　都明白　什麼都變了


09. 記念: 想念變成一條線　在時間裡面漫延　長得可以把世界切成了兩個面


10. 好想放假: 我好想放假　拖了鞋　曬太陽
