«是时候» - 孙燕姿

“Joelly, am I ugly? When I was a kid, I thought I was. I can’t believe I’m crying already. Sometimes I think people don’t understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don’t matter. So, I’m eight, and I have these toys, these dolls. My favorite is this ugly girl doll who I call Clementine, and I keep yelling at her, “You can’t be ugly! Be pretty!” It’s weird, like if I can transform her, I would magically change, too.

“很多人都讲, local 的 movie, 不好看的啦, 全部都一样。
一定有个 Ah Beng, 蹲在那边, 讲 Hokkien, 骂粗话。
不然就是整个戏, 很 sad - long cut, still shot. Then lui seh horh, 没有人讲话的。
他们这样厉害，叫他们去拍 lorh.”

Zo Gang (Go Work) - Singapore Short Film

Watched this for my Asian Film History lecture and I laughed till I teared. Poking fun at our national hobby (complain, complain, and complain more), Singaporean Satire at its comically best.

And the sun will shine again
And the sun will shine again
Are you looking for a sign?
Or are you caught up in the lie?

Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows, on your own
Only the young can break away, break away
Lost when the wind blows, on your own

Only The Young - Brandon Flowers  

A cup of candles, oh they flicker
Oh, they flicker and they float
And I’m up here holding onto all those chandeliers of hope
Like some drunkard Elvis singing I go singing out of tune
Saying how I always loved you, darling
And I always will
