From the 1980s to the present, Hong Kong lyricist Chow Lai Mau has worked with all the biggest names of Canto-pop and penned countless classic hits which pretty much grew up with me.
In this latest compilation 20/20+ Chow Lai Mau Music Collection, he personally picked 45 of his representative songs from the last twenty years. Chow describes the selections as 20 fans' favourites, 20 songs that gave him different feelings during composition, and 5 songs that he wants to keep to himself.
This great compilation is no doubt a trip down Hong Kong's memory lane with familiar songs from stars of past and present, but sadly, it is missing one of my all-time favourites from Jacky Cheung - 再爱上你 (1991) , it's really hard to find such charmingly pleasant lyrics these days.
没月半弯
亦没醉倒了夕阳
却教这心
重遇你后跳得比风更响
望着晚风
但未禁偷偷窥看
你那风采
仍令我像那天朝思晚想
不理不理曾离别过你
只要只要重头热恋你
再爱上你梦再飞
往事令我依旧在回味
回头仍痴想可
再爱上你梦再起
你让我这心又渐离地
迷失方向谁可一生
长夜伴晨曦依然是你
旧日衬衣
又为你的肩被上
你说你记得
然后已堕进我心胸里躺
望着晚星
才知星光多奔放因再有你在旁
盼望地老天可再荒
回头仍可一世一生
教我爱得心更深
回头仍可相爱相亲
教你爱得依旧动人
无憾后半生
愿一生我俩
愿一世一生相向
