兒歌 - 青蛙媽媽

原來兒歌都可歷久常新，以下的兒歌是我幼稚園時其中的一首飲歌(廣東版)，最近發現細我三十年的Jasmine妹妹都識唱，仲要是國語版，現特別點這廣東版給Jasmine妹妹聽，留意歌詞 .. :p

做人别太CNN

CNN insisted yesterday that a comment by pundit Jack Cafferty saying the Chinese were "a bunch of goons and thugs" was targeted at the government, not the Chinese people, and apologised to anybody who thought otherwise.

"It was not Mr Cafferty's nor CNN's intent to cause offence to the Chinese people, and [CNN] would apologise to anyone who has interpreted the comments in this way," said the broadcaster, which is based in Atlanta, in the US state of Georgia.


It said Cafferty was offering his "strongly held" opinion of the central government, not the nation's people, and that he had clarified the point on Monday. The network noted that "over many years, Jack Cafferty has expressed critical comments on many governments, including the US government and its leaders".

Cafferty's remarks on April 9 that Chinese products were "junk" and that the Chinese were "a bunch of goons and thugs" prompted the Foreign Ministry on Tuesday to issue a strong condemnation and demand an apology.

Apart from televising Cafferty's inflammatory comments, CNN has come under fire on the mainland for broadcasting a photograph that cropped out Tibetans throwing stones at a military vehicle.

The fury even prompted singer Mu Rongxuan to write and perform a song called As a Human Being, Don't Be Too CNN. The song has attracted more than 100,000 downloads since it was released online on Monday. The song's lyrics say "CNN vows solemnly that all truth is shown ... but I gradually discovered that it turned out to be a deception".

The song also put the cropped picture in the same category as the fake tiger photo created by a Shaanxi farmer, which triggered nationwide uproar last year.

More than 3,000 internet surfers showed their strong support for the song by posting comments on electronic bulletin boards.

Many suggested translating the song into other languages, including English and French, and broadcasting it around the world to express their indignation over CNN's alleged "manipulation".

Other messages included: "Distortion of fact, shame on CNN", "Good song, down with CNN".

Some online postings said CNN stood for "Chinese Negative News".

快樂不快樂

昨天信報陳頌紅提到《科學人雜誌》今年四月的一個研究，研究人員曾經給受訪者兩個選擇，在物價、生活費相同的情况下：Ａ、你的年薪是五萬美元，而別人的年薪是二萬五；Ｂ、你年薪是十萬，而別人是二十五萬。結果大部份人選擇Ａ。

研究的結果，是『一個人快樂與否，基因大慨決定了一半，而另一半是取決於別人相對上擁有多少』。

其實很簡單，『知足常樂』！送您一首快樂歌..

快樂 許冠傑

曲：許冠傑
詞：許冠傑

快樂是陽光普照的清晨
快樂是流水美妙的音韻
快樂其實分分鐘把您等
只要您識得點去搵

快樂是尋找天際的星辰
快樂是回憶沙灘的足印
快樂其實邊一位都有份
不管您是富或貧

朋友愛父母恩
每刻溫暖在我心
豁達滿足仁愛施恩
快樂便常共您相親

快樂是離開都市的煙塵
快樂是回家往浴缸一浸
快樂是一首好歌嘴裡哼
一張晚報 一杯香檳

快樂是賢妻給我的精神
快樂是兒子親暱的一吻
快樂長陪我這一生
皆因我是快樂人

Before Sunrise/Sunset - Far Away

Let me sing you a waltz

遇到100%的女孩

今天搭地鐵，遇到一個年約五、六歲的小女孩竟然在唱這首歌:

【讓一切隨風】 鍾鎮濤
曲：Katsuo Ono/Aku Yu 詞：黃霑　

風中風中　心裡冷風　吹失了夢
事未過去　就已失蹤　此刻有種種心痛
心中心中　一切似空　天黑天光都似夢
迷迷惘惘　聚滿心中　追蹤一片冷的風

各種空虛　冷冷冷　吹起吹起風裡夢
過去的心　火般灼熱　今天已變了冰凍
記憶中突然又痛　只因空虛再作弄
你似北風　吹走我夢　就讓一切隨風

風中風中　心裡冷風　吹失了夢
事未過去　就已失蹤　此刻有種種心痛

心中心中　一切似空　天黑天光都似夢
迷迷惘惘　聚滿心中　追蹤一片冷的風

各種空虛　冷冷冷　吹起吹起風裡夢
過去的心　火般灼熱　今天已變了冰凍
記憶中突然又痛　只因空虛再作弄
你似北風　吹走我夢　就讓一切隨風

The Beatles - Hey Jude

This song keeps lingering in my head for the whole day after watching our dear priests' presentation yesterday ... haha!

Click this link for Observer interview with Paul Potts: http://tinyurl.com/2gza22

Paul Potts sings Nessun dorma on UK talent show "Britain's got Talent" featuring Simon Cowell as a judge.

Brief background:

- Bath Opera is an amateur opera company staging a small number of productions a few times each year.

- Paul has performed in just 4 four productions with this company.

- Paul has attended some masterclasses in Italy. These courses are designed for talented amateurs. All of these are paid for by those attending.

- A few masterclasses, even one with the great man do not constitute "a formal opera training" by any stretch of the imagination.

- Professional opera singers earn their living by treading the boards night after night week-in week-out, year after year with professional opera companies.

- Paul, has never earned a single penny from opera performance, other than winning a tv talent show in 1999 - the winnings funding masterclasses.

- Paul has not performed since 2003.

- He is not a professional opera singer pretending to be a mobile phone sales man, but rather he is a mobile phone salesman aspiring to be an opera singer.

- An operatic voice IS a trained voice.
