In the old days there was a thing called “Spectrum Radio” (I think on AM) that used to separate the 24-hour cycle into 24 different hours broadcasting music in languages different to English. I believe “Cantonese” (kind of our local Hong Kong language – despite being Hakka with a distinct language of our own) – was broadcast in the evening between 6pm – 7pm. In the early 1990s, I used to teach ethnic Chinese children English in the Sutton area. In the evening, our local Chinese community was much larger then than now – and we used to visit one another for dinner and a cup of tea. On occasion, and long before we were married, me and Gee used to listen to Spectrum Radio together – listening to contemporary (English) tracks rendered into Cantonese. Gee remembers “My Heart Will Go On” (Celine Dion) – the theme from the hit Movie “Titanic” – sang in Cantonese! Our children – Mei-An and Kai-Lin – have designed a post on this blog around our memories!

我每晚也夢見 伴在你的身邊 我每晚也夢到 以前 愛侶隔這樣遠 你沒法到終點 卻有我掛念你 百年 愛戀 憑一個信念 似海深的愛夢裡 再現 變遷 浮光於水面 扭曲倒影太善變 但夜裡發出光線 我讚美這份愛 是耀眼的火鑽 跌進暗處伴那 破船 盼世界倒後轉 至遇上的當天 永遠永遠繫我 心弦 愛戀 憑一個信念 似海深的愛夢裡 再現(仿佛不會) 變遷 浮光於水面 扭曲倒影太善變 但夜裡發出光線 愛戀 憑一個信念 似海深的愛夢裡 再現 變遷 浮光於水面 扭曲倒影太善變 但夜裡發出光線 #葉蒨文 #SallyYeh #繫我心弦
