So since there is a lyric composition contest going on, why don't we talk about our favorite lyrics from Jay's songs and why they're your favorite lyrics? This is aside from the music. I think you can have a great line of lyrics but crappy music set to it.
My favorite is from "Love Before the Century"
when the only thing left of an ancient civilization is an unintelligible language
the legend becomes an ever lasting, never ending poem
the love i give to you was written before this century,
buried in the mesopotamian plains.
unearthed after a few centuries
on the mud the marks of the words are still clear.
I know it sounds ten trillion times better in Chinese, but it still sounds fairly awesome in English.
I mean it's just neat because it referenced mesopotamia, which is an ancient civilization around iraq / iran. and it's just cool to think that some of the undecipherable letters may have been a love letter written from one person to another, and we are studying and analyzing it not knowing what it is. *nerd*
Yay to Vincent Fang.
Discuss, share!

I love "Love Before the Century" too! I was reading a few of the lyrics for some of the songs as I was trying to categorize them, and came across a lot that I liked
From Return to the Past
也许爱在梦的另一端 / 无法存活在真实的空间
ye xu ai zai meng de ling yi duan / wu fa cun huo zai zhen shi de kong jian
Perhaps love is at the other end of a dream / unable to survive in the realms of reality
So profound! *whimpers* I take it as saying ideal love is such a fantasy it surely can't exist in the same plane as reality, but rather in the fantasies of a true romanticist.
I think I'll try my hand at the lyrics writing contest! I'm so inspired. haha

Your beauty has already been given to whom?
Chasing and chasing again, I can’t get it back
I understand that the leaves that have left the trees
Belong to the world of the ground, withering
i love love this part.. the melody is so beautiful and the lyrics is so sad . and i love the part where the leaves left the trees belong to the ground .. picturing it is so bittersweet

Want to cry to see if I’m dead with out emotion yet
It’s like in the whole world I’m the only one who’s exhausted
Doesn’t matter, because even if I’m down I can ignore my senses and just get it over and done with
Just wish that desperation will go away
My world is about to be destroyed
i love these lines because when im feeling particulary stressed or angry or frustrated, i can relate so well to them..
and this is also the song that Jay once said was the most personal to his experience, so it makes me think of what he mustve felt then when he wrote it..
Can a heart that's been thoroughly wounded keep on loving me?
I work hard to pull up a pair of warmth-less hands
A gentleness that came and went
Has already been locked by time
All that's left are grievances that cannot be waved apart
This is from the song 'maple'- these lyrics are very beautiful and represents his longing for her soooo much that it just makes me very sad to hear it. i think i fell in love with this song in the first place because of the mv but then i listened to the lyrics and loved it more :D

this is the first song that introduce me to the wonderful music of jay chou- " pa , i m back " and the lines he wrote -
if only i could have a pair of wings , two pairs of wings,
can set off anytime , set off secretly,
i would deifinitely take my mother and go.
i was so intrigued by his melody and touched by his lyrics.

my favorite is from "qing tian" esp the beginning part of it.
The small yellow flower from the story
Was wandering since the day she was born
Swinging on a swing in her childhood
Swinging her memories all the way until now.
i makes me think back at my happy childhood..playing games in the back yard with my big sis.. can't do that anymore..cuase its too cold and we're too old (lol) but apart from that. it just make me think of something serene and peaceful.before i read the translation(i don't speak chinese) the music and his voice always put a calm feeling in my heart..

Hey Leann I thought you speak chinese hahaha lol well now there's two of us that can't speak chinese...but I'm learning now...I'll begin next week my course!! yeah!!.....Ok my favorite verse is from Common Jasmin Orange....it goes like this:
Rain falls for the whole night
My love overflows like the rain
Leaves fall in the courtyard
With my thoughts one thick pile
A few words of gossip
There is no way it can cool off my passion
You appear in every page of my poem
I just love the last part..."You appear in every page of my poem"...it's the most romantic sentence ever!!...I write poems so I like this phrase very much....This song makes me so happy, it's beautiful ....I don't know what it is but
it has something magic!....I also love this part from Hair like snow:
The sour air
I can smell the distance between us
An ending that drills into my heart
Cannot be stopped like breathing
It's very deep and sometimes I just feel that way...

my favourite lyrics, i think it's the starting of the song, Black Humour.
I'm sad because i'm bored, for a very long time
Because i thought too much..
because my heart has started to react..
you said, you're always followed by sorrows
we're being forced to be together
should you lave me now....?
and etc... its like... SO sad...

My favorite lyrics and my favorite Jay song is in this song: An Jing
There's only the piano that accompanies me through the days,
This sleeping cello,
Is quiet and so old.
I think you've made yourself clear,
I know it and I'm sure that,
You will not regret it.
You say you're as upset as me, but I don't believe this,
Being with me was all about the past,
I hope he loves you more than I do,
That's only when I'll be forcing myself to leave.

^ Those are my favorite lyrics as well. Like you, I think it's awesome that the song references "Mesopotamia". And it's really one of the most romantic songs Jay has ever sang...just the idea of love existing for a really long time, written in stone, etc, etc is so gorgeous. I thought it was so romantic, I'm incorporating it into a speech I have to give at a wedding ceremony, lol.

I like ye qu, not only because of the rhythm but also the lyric
It's quite scaring but exactly, It's really nice and very faithful

Well i like Ti Tian lyrics,because it is so meaningful,that talks about the beauty of the nature that being destored by mankind!!And here's one of my lyrics:
因地制宜 綜合利用 利用對還是不對
自私的人類 狼不狼狽 破壞自然的生態
會不會很累 你說為了藝術
要砍下一棵樹 這樣對還是不對
你說為了裝飾 請問干我啥事
是不是只能用相機紀錄自然
那相片 給下一代 給下一代回味
可憐可悲 森林綠地都已成紀錄片
聞不到綠意盎然 只享受到烏煙瘴氣
我不能教育你們 我不是你們老師
我不是校長 也不能給你們一巴掌…掌…
長…長…長篇大論
你們並不想聽 我知道但我沒辦法
我就是要寫 你們可能永遠不能體會
顯微鏡底下的我們 會更現實更自私
這種藝術 真的很難領悟
Ying di zhi yi zong he li yong li yong dui hai shi bu dui
Zi si de ren lei lang bu lang bei po huai zi ran de sheng tai
Hui bu hui hen lei ni shuo wei le yi shu
Yao kan xia yi ke shu zhe yang dui hai shi bu dui
Ni shuo wei le zhuang shi qing wen gan wo sha shi
shi bu shi zhi neng yong xiang ji ji lü zi ran
Na xiang pian gei xia yi dai gei xia yi dai hui wei

Wen bu dao lü yi ang ran zhi xiang shou dao niao yan zhang qi
Wo bu nen jiao yu ni men wo bu shi ni men lao shi

In English....
To act how we want, to use all of nature, is this right or wrong?
Selfish humankind, is it not sorrowful to pollute the soul of nature in this way...?
Wanting to cut down even a single tree, is this right or wrong?
You say its all just for decoration
and ask me why its my problem, anyway.
So, I guess only the camera can record nature now?
That photo, passed down from generation
to generation
to give then just a taste of the past
Pitiful and lamentable...
The green of the forest has been delegated to the documentary
Those who have never seen the lush green can only enjoy the unwholesome(?)
I can't educate you
I'm not your teacher
I'm not your principal
And I can't slap you....
a long...long...long...speech
I know you really don't want to listen.
I know, but i have no other way.
Despite everything, I am going to write.
Maybe you will never be able to understand
Under a microscope, our reality will seem all the more selfish
This kind of art is hard for me to understand
Jay is a kind guy/boy as well!!Man his awesome,care about the environment too!!

my fav is "listen to mama's words". it's about love... for his mom. i just love the lyrics, it has a very good meaning. he's sending a message through his songs to all the people who don't understand their parents and everything... so sweet!
An Jing is my favourite of all time, hands down.
It's really sad, and touching in an oddly sombre kind of way. And the MV suits the mood so well. And Jay is the perfect artist for this kind of song cos I see him like the song - a bit of a loner, somewhat sad and broody but determined to make it through.
It's about love but it isn't like every other love song out there, there's real meaning behind the words - not just 'wo ai ni, ni ai wo' kind of lyrics.
My fave part is An Jing De Mei Zhe Me Kuai. Lovely...

ditto~
The beginning lyrics from 安静(An Jing). The song is SOO sad. I feel like crying when I play it on the piano :depresse:
I also like the last bit of lyrics from An Jing:
我会学着放弃你
wo hui xue zhe fang qi ni
I will learn to give up on you
是因为我太爱你
shi yin wei wo tai ai ni
because I love you too much
.: blacklily :.

Just love the lyrics in Ye Qu (Nocturne). The first time i heard it, the thing that pops up in my head's like "I hope after I die, someone will sing this song for me". The lyrics are so sincere and sombre. I like every single bit of it... :wink2:
Thanks to Fang Wen Shan! :D

I love the lyrics in An Jing. I remember when I first heard the song, the melody was very moving. The mood was sad and I felt like crying. But I coudln't. I listened to the song over and over. So I searched for the lyrics and listened to the song at the same time, and I started crying. It was just so sad. It reminded me of a time in my life. Gah, Jay and his compositions. He's so talented. T-T

huh, gotta be an jing, or fa rue xue.
an jing is just so sad...and touching , the emotion in that song is just exploding!
in fa rue xue...it jus takes things to a new level with the metaphors and it just creates such a new dimension!
then theres gui ji which is one of my all time faves, IM WILLING TO LOVE AGAIN!!!!! .... I CANT CHOOOOOOOOOOOOSE
i love Stepping Back lyrics because it really touching... :oops:
I know that the fault is not in either one of us
We just forgot how to step back
We made promises to each other with confidence
Yet it has been emptied by time
The most beautiful love is to be continued in my memory
it really suitable for me... :happy:

jie kou !!! Nice Song & Lyric by jay ---
-----------
sounds like jay is so desperated, he is on the edge... - misunderstanding here,
no way to explain, to choose , he can't do anything but asking for tolerance...
definitely he never think of - breaking up - ,
yet all cant be retained, simply asking :
If [you] want to go, please remember me, if [you] feel sad, please forget me

我送你離開 千里之外 你無聲黑白
Wo song ni li kai / qian li zhi wai / ni wu sheng hei bai
I send you off to a thousand miles away, [my mental image of you] is silent, black and white
沈默年代 或許不該 太遙遠的相愛
Chen mo nian dai / huo xu bu gai / tai yao yuan de xiang ai
Perhaps a love so far apart shouldn’t exist in this silent era
我送你離開 天涯之外 你是否還在
Wo song ni li kai / tian yai* zhi wai / ni shi fou hai zai
I send you away beyond the end of Earth, are you still there?
琴聲何來 生死難猜 用一生 去等待
Qing sheng he lai / sheng si nan cai / yong yi sheng / qu deng dai
Where is the zither** sound coming from? It’s hard to predict life and death. [I will] use [my] whole life to wait
its really deep and i love the song!!!:-)

oh wow...I love ALL of his lyrics but good question...hmmm
Ni bi cong qian kuai le
Dan dan yi ju, hai shi peng you, lei ye ru dao ge
A simple sentence, we're still friends, tears cut like a knife
Duan le de xian
wo tu ran shi huai de xiao
I suddenly laughed with a relieved heart
xiao sheng pan xuan ban shan yao
The laughter circled around the middle of a mountain
sui feng zai piao yao a yao
Floated with the wind, swaying
Ban dao tie he
wei shen me zhe yang zi, ni kan zhe wo shuo ni yi jing jue ding
Why is it so? you look at me saying u have decided
Shan Hu Hai
zhuan shen li kai (ni you hua shuo bu chu lai) fen shou shuo bu chu lai
Turning around to leave, (You have something to say but remained speechless), unable to say it's over
hai niao gen yu xiang ai / zhi shi yi chang yi wai
The love between a seagull and a fish is only an accidental occurrence

i love the lyrics for Yuan You Hui:
(ex.) ni de lian mei you hua zhuang wo que feng kuang ai shang
"You wore no makeup but i fell for you like crazy" XD...
An Jing:
wo hui xue zhe fang qi ni, shi yin wei wo tai ai ni.
"i'll learn to let you go, it's all because i love you too much."
i also love the all the lyrics to Qian Li Zhi Wai, especially the chorus.
Shan Hu Hai:
"listen carefully to the crashing tides, it's not from the sea but from the tears."
"the love between seagull and fish is accidentaly occurence."
and the chorus to Dong Feng Po...
and all of Tui Hou..
i love a lot of Jay's songs' lyrics...:D

I'm in trance, lonely, and my will to live seems to stir up when I'm listening to Jay's song AN JING "Silence".
I love the last part the most... so simple yet so meaningful...
安靜的沒這麼快
An jing de mei zhe me kuai
Staying silent doesn't come so fast
我會學著放棄你
Wo hui xue zhe fang qi ni
I will learn to give you up
是因為我太愛你
Shi ying wei wo tai ai ni
Because I love you so much
Jay Chou ROCKS!

Ge Qian! This song... perfectly describe my feeling! l like all of them, but some of the most touching parts are:
哭過 卻無法掩埋歉疚
ku guo / que wu fa yan mai qian jiu
Have cried, but been unable to bury [my] guilt
怎麼會怎麼會 你竟原諒了我
zen me hui zen me hui ni jing yuan liang le wo
How come, how come, you've actually forgiven me
我只能永遠讀著對白 讀著我給你的傷害
wo zhi neng yong yuan du zhe dui bai / du zhe wo gei ni de shang hai
I can only forever read the dialogue, reading the pain that I've given you
我原諒不了我 就請你當作我已不在
wo yuan liang bu liao wo / jiu qing ni dang zuo wo yi bu zai
I cannot forgive myself, so please treat as if I'm not here anymore
Jie Kou
我知道妳的痛 是我給的承諾
wo zhi dao ni de tong / shi wo gei de cheng nuo
I know your pain is the promise I gave
An Jing
我懂我也知道
Wo dong wo ye zhi dao
I understand, I know too
你沒有捨不得
Ni mei you she bu de
[that] You have no regret
希望他是真的比我還要愛你
Xi wang ta shi zhen de bi wo hai yao ai ni
I hope he loves you more than I do
我才會逼自己離開
wo cai hui bi zi ji li kai
Only then will I bring myself to leave
為什麼還要我用微笑來帶過
Wei she me hai yao wo yong wei xiao lai dai guo
Why must I depend on a smile to tide me through?
我會學著放棄你
Wo hui xue zhe fang qi ni
I'm able to learn to give you up
是因為我太愛你
Shi ying wei wo tai ai ni
is because I love you too much
Ye Qu
为你弹奏萧邦的夜曲
wei ni tan zou xiao bang de ye qu
For you [ I ] play Chopin's Nocturne
纪念我死去的爱情
ji nian wo si qu de ai qing
To commemorate this desceased love of mine
而我为你隐姓埋名
er wo wei ni yin xing mai ming
And for you I've become anonymous
Feng
我把爱烧成了落叶
wo ba ai shao cheng le luo ye
Ashes from my burning heart falls like leaves
却换不回熟悉的那张脸
que huan bu hui shu xi de na zhang lian
But I can never regain (your) familiar face again
我要的只是你在我身边
wo yao de zhi shi ni zai wo shen bian
I just want you by my side
Shan Hu Hai
转身离开 (你有话说不出来) 分手说不出来
zhuan shen li kai (ni you hua shuo bu chu lai) fen shou shuo bu chu lai
Turning around to leave, (You have something to say but remained speechless), unable to say it's over
海鸟跟鱼相爱 只是一场意外
hai niao gen yu xiang ai / zhi shi yi chang yi wai
The love between a seagull and a fish is only an accidental occurrence
我们的爱 (给的爱)差异一直存在 (回不来)
wo men de ai (gei de ai) cha yi yi zhi cun zai (hui bu lai)
Differences had always existed in (the love you gave) our love (we can't go back)

I love jay chou's Simple Love (簡單愛), basically the entire song is awesome to me, but the part that I know the most and sing the most is the second part of the chorus:
我想就這樣牽著你的手不放開.
wo xiang jiu zhe yang qian zhe ni de shou bu fang kai.
愛可不可以簡簡單單沒有傷害?
ai ke bu ke yi jian jian dan dan mei you shang hai?
你靠著我的肩膀, 你在我胸口睡着
ni kao zhe wo de jian bang, ni zai wo xiong kou shui zao
想這樣的生活我愛你,你愛我。
xiang zhe yang de sheng huo, wo ai ni, ni ai wo.
It basically means "I want to hold you hand like this and never let go. Can love be simple without hurting each other? You lean on my shoulder, you fall asleep on my chest. Thinking of this kind of life, I love you, you love me..."
Anyway, I love that part of this song, because love is normally really complicated for a lot of people that I know. They're always involved in like drama and stuff. This simple love that he describes is something people need to realize before it's too late.

一路向北
後視鏡裏的世界 越來越遠的道別
你轉身向背 側臉還是很美
我用眼光去追 竟聽見你的淚
在車窗外面排徊 是我錯失的機會
你站的方位 跟我中間隔著淚
街景一直在後退 你的崩潰在窗外零碎
我一路向北 離開有你的季節
你說你好累 已無法再愛上誰
風在山路吹 過往的畫面全都是我不對
細數慚愧 我傷你幾回
我一路向北 離開有你的季節
方向盤周圍 回轉著我的後悔
我加速超越 卻甩不掉緊緊跟隨的傷悲
細數慚愧 我傷你幾回
停止狼狽 就讓錯純粹
晴天
故事的小黃花
從出生那年就飄著
童年的蕩秋千
隨記憶一直晃到現在
ㄖㄨㄟ ㄙㄡ ㄙㄡ ㄒ一 ㄉㄡ ㄒ一
re sou sou xi dou xi
ㄌㄚ ㄙㄡ ㄌㄚ ㄒ一 ㄒ一 ㄒ一 ㄒ一 ㄌㄚ ㄒ一 ㄌㄚ ㄙㄡ
la sou la xi xi xi xi la xi la sou
吹著前奏望著天空
我想起花瓣試著掉落
為你翹課的那一天
花落的那一天
教室的那一間
我怎麼看不見
消失的下雨天
我好想再淋一遍
沒想到失去的勇氣我還留著
好想再問一遍
你會等待還是離開
刮風這天 我試過握著你手
但偏偏 雨漸漸
大到我看你不見
還要多久 我才能在你身邊
等待放晴的那天 也許我會比較好一點
從前從前 有個人愛你很久
但偏偏 風漸漸
把距離吹得好遠
好不容易 又能再多愛一天
但故事的最后你好像還是說了拜拜
七里香
窗外的麻雀 在電線桿上多嘴
妳說這一句 很有夏天的感覺
手中的鉛筆 在紙上來來回回
我用幾行字形容妳是我的誰
秋刀魚 的滋味 貓跟妳都想了解
初戀的香味就這樣被我們尋回
那溫暖 的陽光 像剛摘的鮮豔草莓
你說妳捨不得吃掉這一種感覺
雨下整夜 我的愛溢出就像雨水
院子落葉 跟我的思念厚厚一疊
幾句是非 也無法將我的熱情冷卻
妳出現在我詩的每一頁
雨下整夜 我的愛溢出就像雨水
窗台蝴蝶 像詩裡紛飛的美麗章節
我接著寫 把永遠愛妳寫進詩的結尾
妳是我唯一想要的了解
那飽滿 的稻穗 幸福了這個季節
而妳的臉頰像田裡熟透的蕃茄
妳突然 對我說 七里香的名字很美
我此刻卻只想親吻妳倔強的嘴
Sorry I know long post, but it's alot more helpful to understand if it's in the original context. I find these highlighted bits are really insightful and still stirs my emotion ever since I heard them the first time. Hope yous like them :-)

i like these sentences from tui hou...
天空灰得像哭过 离开你以后並沒有更自由
tian kong hui de xiang ku guo li kai ni yi hou bing mei you geng zi you
the grey sky looks as if it was crying i still feel unfreed after you left...
我知道你我都没有错 只是忘了怎么退后
wo zhi dao ni wo dou mei you cuo zhi shi wang le zen me tui hou
i know it's not our fault we just forget to give way to each other...
and bai se feng che...
我背你走到最后 能不能不要回头
wo bei ni zou dao zui hou neng bu neng bu yao hui tou
i will carry you till the end jus dont turn back...
你紧紧地抱住我 说你不需要承诺
ni jin jin de bao zhu wo shuo ni bu xu yao cheng nuo
u hold me tightly, saying that u dont need any promises
你说我若一个人会比较自由
ni shuo wo ruo yi ge ren hui bi jiao zi you
u said that i'll be better alone
我不懂你说什么 反正不会松手
wo bu dong ni shuo shen me fan zheng bu hui song shou
i dont understand wad you're saying but i wont let go of ur hand...
I love the whole lyrics of "Ni Ting De Dao" (You Can Hear It) but I especially love these lines because it made me think of my first love :tongue: Coincidentally, it's also one of his favourite song. I was so happy when I found out :happy:
秘密躺在我怀抱
mi mi tang zai wo huai bao
A secret is lying in my lap
只有你能听得到
zhi you ni neng ting de dao
Only you can hear it
还有没有人知道
hai you mei you ren zhi dao
Does anyone else know
你的微笑像拥抱
ni de wei xiao xiang yong bao
That your smile is like an embrace?
多想藏着你的好
duo xiang cang zhe ni de hao
How I want to hide your goodness
只有我看得到
zhi you wo kan de dao
So that only I can see it
Honestly, although I think it's rather selfish but that's what I actually feel when I was with the person I love. I don't want others to see his goodness because I was afraid that they will admire him or something which means I'll have competition :-x Haha. I know it's childish of me to think like that but I just cannot help it. But I'm trying hard to be happy for him if he has lots of admirer because that just means he's a good guy and I also want him to be well-liked :happy:
Oh, not to mention, this song is really cool too. When sung the second time, the line "Only you can hear it", if it's played reversed. It's so cool!!! Only us - Jay Chou's fans can hear it. How cool is that? Just like some kind of secret that only we know :brows:

Rather than his old songs (which admittedly are very good), I much prefer one of his new songs "Give me a song's time" (gei wo yi shou ge de shi jian)
I think I like it because it speaks of finishing something, and seeing it out to the end, and the importance of an ending, in anything really - be it a relationship or a story. Because for a story to end happily, it must end.
Can you give me the time to sing this song?
The tight embrace I give you becomes forever
In my embrace
You needn't worry of losing sleep
(and) If you want to forget, I can also lose the memories.
Can you give me time to sing this song?
Only after hearing the end of the story say “goodbye.”
You carry my tears,
Save them for a rainy day.
Oh~
Overcoming your cutting me off I’ve determined to have a brave
Ending.
You say I shouldn’t
Shouldn’t have told you I love you just now.
