這是大馬的創作和製作,吉他是馬來人彈的,母帶是阿根廷人做的,歌詞使用的是中文,和來自中國廣東歌手一起演唱,MV裡面有三個種族,宣傳夥伴在台灣,致敬的是香港的樂隊Beyond。
我想說的是,藝術本來就不分國籍語言和宗教的。這已經不是我第一次這樣做音樂了,我提出來只是想告訴大家,我一直透過音樂來傳遞世界大同的訊息,雖然有人不停地抹黑,造謠,用扭曲的價值觀來攻擊我。但我依然會記得一開始我做音樂的初心,不會被打倒。我相信只有捍衛民主自由的普世價值,才能聽見最真誠的聲音。謝謝一直以來支持著我創作的朋友們。

【賴明珠定林少華?談村上春樹譯本問題】
#LostinTranslation
#村上春樹
#譯書
好多人睇書,都未必會細心留意譯者係邊個,畢竟翻譯成中文嘅書已經唔多(相對而言啦),更何況要選擇由邊個 #譯書 ?好多時候只有世界經典名著先會 #有得揀至係老闆 ,可以搵到唔同嘅中文譯本。
不過,村上春樹就係華文世界嘅例外啦。好多時候,大家都會討論究竟係林少華譯得好d,定係賴明珠翻譯得最傳神?講真,特別係村上春樹筆下果種比較重視文筆多於實際劇情嘅小說,翻譯其實可以構成好大分別,甚至影響閱讀體驗。
林少華對賴明珠?世界大戰抹黑宇宙了,can you feel? Are you readly 進入翻譯的大世界呢?
▍《且聽風吟》v.s.《聽風的歌》:翻譯得似中文就係好嘅翻譯?
試下一句總結林少華同賴明珠翻譯嘅分別:「林少華翻譯得似中文,賴明珠翻譯接近日文原文」(不服來辯)。
其實林少華同賴明珠嘅翻譯風格有咩分別,過去已經有大量爭論,甚至引發中港台兩岸三地嘅唇槍舌劍,日本學者藤井省三嘅作品《村上春樹心底的中國》,甚至用左其中一章去討論兩岸三地嘅村上春樹翻譯添。呢篇文當然三言兩語難以解釋晒,但都希望大家睇完之後,會有個基本嘅理解。
一般嚟講,中國大陸嘅讀者比較偏好林少華;而香港、台灣人都會鍾情賴明珠。大家就好似水溝油咁,好少會達成共識。
或者,問題出於大家對翻譯理念嘅唔同。中文翻譯嘅最高境界,究竟係要令外語寫成嘅文字完全融入中文,甚至睇唔出係外國人寫成嘅小說;定係應該盡量貼近原文,保留外語嘅痕跡呢?
英國翻譯理論大師Peter Newmark係佢嘅重要翻譯著作《翻譯教程》(A Textbook of Translation) 入面提到:「我多少算係一個「直譯派」,因爲我重視真實同精準」(I am somewhat of a ‘literalist’, because I am for truth and accuracy)。姐係話,一般嚟講直譯都係最好嘅做法,因為最準最真——除非你覺得唔係啦?
我唔直接答你,我用例子答你。大家討論村上春樹翻譯,總係喜歡用《挪威的森林》開頭嘅其中一段入手,大家不如直接睇下。賴明珠翻譯成咁:
「記憶這東西,真是不可思議。當實際置身其中時,我幾乎沒有去注意過那些風景。既不覺得印象特別深刻,也沒想到在十八年後竟然還會記得那風景的細部。老實說,對那時候的我來說,風景怎麼樣好像都無所謂似的。我只想著我自己的事。想著那時候身邊並肩走著一個美女的事,想著我和她的事,並且又再想回我自己的事。那是不管看見什麼,感覺什麼,想到什麼,最後都會像回力棒一樣回到自己手上的年代。何況我正在戀愛,那場戀愛把我帶進一個非常麻煩複雜的處境。讓我沒有任何多餘的心情去轉向周遭的風景。」
而林少華就咁樣翻譯:
「記憶這東西真有些不可思議。實際身臨其境的時候,幾乎未曾意識到那片風景,未曾覺得它有什麼撩人情懷之處,更沒想到十八年後仍歷歷在目。那時心裡想的,只是我自己,只是我身旁相伴而行的一個漂亮姑娘,只是我與她的關係,而後又轉回我自己。在那個年齡,無論目睹什麼感受什麼還是思考什麼,終歸像回飛棒一樣轉回到自己身上。更何況我正懷著戀情,而那戀情又把我帶到一處紛紜而微妙的境地,根本不容我有欣賞周圍風景的閒情逸致。」
咁樣對比之下,兩者分別係咪好明顯呢?
賴明珠成段文字入面,都無用過成語。而林少華為左令文字簡潔而貼近中文,將賴明珠譯筆下的「還會記得那風景的細部」、「任何多餘的心情」,翻譯為「歷歷在目」、「閒情逸致」;林少華會用上「未曾覺得它有什麼撩人情懷之處」、「紛紜而微妙的境地」等等華麗的詞藻,而係賴明珠筆下,就係相對平實既「既不覺得印象特別深刻」以及「非常麻煩複雜的處境」。
▍文革大革命都有影響?個人成長經歷影響文字風格
除左翻譯理念嘅唔同,個人成長經歷以及時代背景,當然都好影響翻譯家嘅文字風格。
村上春樹、林少華,同賴明珠分別係1949年、1952年,同1947 年出世,大家出生年份相近,可以算係同代人,但大家嘅成長背景就差天共地。村上春樹成長環境比英美嘅小說、音樂包圍,因此佢嘅生活方式、筆下文字自然貼近西方,而有唔似日文嘅地方(關於呢點,有機會另外寫多一篇文)。
林少華則係成長於中國文化大革命期間,佢曾經「上山下鄉」,去左鄉下務農,結束之後先返去城市讀書。林少華翻譯嘅其中一個致命問題,就係佢唔熟悉60、70年代嘅音樂,以及英文呢種語言本身。正當70年代,國內人人無飯食嘅時候,村上春村同賴明珠分別係日本同台灣蒲緊Jazz酒吧(誇飾),聽緊西方音樂(賴明珠仲曾經係日本留學添)。文革結束之後,林少華經歷左長達十年嘅文化缺失,要急起直追理解村上春樹小說入面提到嘅元素,其實都頗有難度。
所以,時代同文化背景相近,係賴明珠嘅絕對優勢。賴明珠曾經自豪咁講,因為佢同村上春樹係同代人,所以深深了解佢嘅諗法同文字,連譯嘅時候用咩語氣都一清二楚。
對於林少華嘅翻譯手法,賴明珠都有d睇法。佢係蘋果日報嘅訪問提到:「我個人較偏向尊重原著,但中國人做事有不同標準」、「林先生因為喜歡唐詩,不知不覺會賣弄文字的美,喜歡與否是個人喜好。我自己選擇忠於原著,給讀者去選擇。」
而對於中國大陸讀者比較鍾意林少華嘅翻譯法,賴明珠認為原因都係因為文革:「他們因為10年文革,把詩詞都丟掉了,現在就補償起來,重新喜歡這些文字,台灣、香港人一直在讀古文,因此並不需要這些,直接進入(村上的世界)。」
▍中國大陸翻譯,其實唔只林少華一個
順帶一提,其實中國大陸嘅村上春樹翻譯者,又點只得林少華一個咁少。只不過因為佢好早期引入村上春樹,亦翻譯得最多作品,所以先會被當成村上春樹嘅中國大陸「御用翻譯者」。
每逢村上春樹有新書,大陸都會有唔同出版社爭翻譯權。本來,村上嘅書一直都由林少華翻譯,但自2009年起,就比另一間出版社搶左翻譯權,比如話《1Q84》嘅中國大陸版,同2013年嘅《沒有色彩的多崎作和他的巡禮之年》,就係由日本文學翻譯家施小煒翻譯。
當時施小煒嘅翻譯,就以「忠於原著」作為賣點,根本就係直接對林少華開火。風水輪流轉,村上春樹新作《刺殺騎士團長》又變返做林少華翻譯,自然有人歡喜有人愁。當然,台港讀者就唔駛煩,因為幾乎永遠都會係時報出版同賴明珠翻譯。
▍識睇一定係睇英文?
不時活躍網絡世界嘅哲學教授王偉雄,就曾經講過:「村上春樹的小說,我從來只讀英譯,因為試過拿起中譯(賴明珠翻譯)讀了幾頁,覺得行文很彆扭,而英譯則十分自然,不像是翻譯。」
千祈唔好以為用英文睇村上春樹係造作,其實咁樣真係幾有道理,因為村上春樹嘅日文,本來就有一種翻譯感,所以用英文翻譯反而更加直接(有興趣嘅話可以寫多篇文講解點解村上春樹嘅文字咁特別)。
我又唔直接答你,用例子答你。英文版嘅村上春樹翻譯唔只一種架,讀者都幾幸福,而呢度就用上Jay Rubin翻譯嘅版本,:
“Memory is a funny thing. When I was in the scene, I hardly paid it any mind. I never stopped to think of it as something that would make a lasting impression, certainly never imagined that eighteen years later I would recall it in such detail. I didn't give a damn about the scenery that day. I was thinking about myself. I was thinking about the beautiful girl walking next to me. I was thinking about the two of us together, and then about myself again. It was the age, that time of life when every sight, every feeling, every thought came back, like a boomerang, to me. And worse, I was in love. Love with complications. The scenery was the last thing on my mind.”
▍同場加映,原文其實係咁
講左咁多,不如直接比大家睇下原文。雖然你未必識日文,但都可以直接比較下(睇日文漢字),或者請教識日文嘅朋友,睇下點翻譯先算好d囉?
「記憶というのはなんだか不思議なものだ。その中に実際に身を置いていたとき、僕はそんな風景に殆ど注意なんて払わなかった。とくに印象的な風景だとも思わなかったし、十八年後もその風景を細部まで覚えているかもしれないとは考えつきもしなかった。正直なところ、そのときの僕には風景なんてどうでもいいようなものだったのだ。僕は僕自身のことを考え、そのときとなりを並んで歩いていた一人の美しい女のことを考え、僕と彼女とのことを考え、そしてまた僕自身のことを考えた。それは何を見ても何を感じても何を考えても、結局すべてはブーメランのように自分自身の手もとに戻ってくるという年代だったのだ。おまけに僕は恋をしていて、その恋はひどくややこしい場所に僕を運んでいた。まわりの風景に気持ちを向ける余裕なんてどこにもなかったのだ。」
有d人會形容林少華嘅翻譯比較「濃妝豔抹」,咁相對之下賴明珠嘅翻譯就比較「淡妝」,更貼近日文原文嘅淡雅樸實。日本學者藤井省三教授係《村上春樹心底的中國》入面就狠批林少華,認為佢嘅翻譯只得零分,因為入面加入左好多詩詞味道,令文章過於華麗而偏離原文意思。林少華嘅回應,就係認為翻譯應該翻出意境,而唔係單純翻譯文字就算係忠於原著。
其實就正如影相、菲林,甚至耳機、耳響一樣,有d器材成色會淡d、濃d,有d就高音甜、中音準、低音勁。你揀邊種,無絕對嘅,都係個人喜好姐。有d人會覺得《且聽風吟》有意境過《聽風的歌》,有d人又會覺得前者太造作——大家又點睇呢?你地鍾意邊一位嘅翻譯多d?

in the scene中文 在 Gregory 河國榮 Facebook 八卦
我是國榮。來自澳洲昆士蘭省,讀中學時成績非常好,分數已足夠在大學選讀任何一科。當時我希望成為一名醫生,因為可以幫助他人。我在新南威爾斯大學讀醫科,第一年是住在雪梨北區一個朋友家中,第二年入住大學國際宿舍,宿舍規定最少有半數是留學生,不是澳洲人。最先兩年結識了不少香港、新加玻、馬來西亞的朋友,與他們很合得來,不過最重要是入住宿舍後,便遇到了香港的流行歌曲。有一天我行經走廊時,聽到一些很悅耳的音樂,我便問同學這是甚麽歌曲及可否借給我欣賞,他便借了給我。我已忘記是Leslie還是Alan的歌,但肯定是其中一位。因為很喜歡這些歌曲,便到唐人街購買,後來一邊聽歌一邊看歌詞,因此慢慢地學識了很多中文字。
因為喜歡唱歌,所以在大學的同學活動,開始演唱中文歌,也曾參加香港學生會舉辦的歌唱比賽,參賽歌曲是「愛的根源」,結果獲得亞軍。我很清楚記得,國際宿舍為了文化交流,每年舉辦一次國際晚宴,希望不同種族的學生可以表演和分享文化。Leslie在一九八五年 唱Monica獲得獎項,那是一首我很喜歡的歌曲,所以在文化交流晚會我便選擇唱Monica。當時同學覺得很驚奇,我怎可能唱Monica。我是跟着錄影帶,學習他的舞步和唱歌技巧。我不停地在公眾地方練習,其他同學看到我很用心練習,也過來幫助我。在台上表演時有幾位同學為我伴舞,當晚演出非常成功。
一九八五年Leslie和幾位香港天皇巨星,來澳洲開演唱會。演唱會的主辦公司,需要義務司機,朋友問我能否當義務司機。我答應了,後來知道是當Leslie的司機。有一天他放假不用排練,我們便駕車往坎培拉,當日天氣多雲有微雨,甚麽也看不清楚,喝過咖啡後便離開,回程是Leslie駕駛,他的英語非常好,途中我們愉快地暢談,這次旅程對我來說是很重要的事情。
一九八六年Alan到來澳洲,我又當了他的司機。在他入住的酒店,介紹人在偶像面前,誤把我的名字說成河詠麟,當時在偶像面前我也不懂怎樣矯正。大約有兩年很多人以為我是河詠麟。他的四位女和音,知道我懂得唱他的歌,所以告訴了他,在排練那天他叫我上台一起唱。認識Leslie 和Alan兩位巨星,對我的影響很大,聽到他們的歌,和看到觀眾的反應,我開始對香港的歌唱發展很重視。
因為常常想着唐人街和唱歌,沒有用功讀書,因此醫科的第三年考試不合格,需要重讀,在一九八六年重讀了三個月便決定退學。
後來做了三份洗碗碟工作,還做了個多月砌磚的工作,我把工作一年多,所得工資儲起來,買了一張單程機票和帶了一千澳元,便到來香港發展。唯一的準備是問一個朋友能否到他的家中居住。他的父親很勉強地答應,但需要收租金。我甚麽準備也沒有,只是刻意買了一張單程機票,是因為不想遇到少許困難便放棄,返回澳洲。
初到香港時甚麼都不認識,沒有計劃,也沒有朋友。我最先是住在廣播道,但我的朋友不是在那裡居住,因為他還在讀書。初來時沒有事做,所以在外面逛了幾天,有一天意外地行到紅磡體育館,中門外有四名男士在吸煙,他們竟然叫我河詠麟。原來他們是Alan的樂隊成員,在一九八六年見過面,但相隔一年,竟然還可以記起我,這就是緣分。當時Alan正在為演唱會排練,他們帶我進去體育館,這樣便再見到Alan。一九八七年的演唱會是三十一場,我看了三十場。本來打算看足三十一場,但是有少許問題出現,因為我住的地方有規定,晚上十時半後便會關門,不會再讓人進出。但演唱會是不會這麽早便完場,每晚看完演唱會,我會行去尖沙嘴,然後再步行回廣播道,然後在公園外的石椅小睡,到五時公園開門便進去睡覺,但最終因捱不住,有一晚沒有去看演唱會。有一次Alan突然問我,今晚可否上台唱歌,我說當然可以,便成為他的嘉賓。我第一次表演Alan十分開心,但第二次他在台上介紹,有一個外國人,唱他的歌十分出色,當他呼喚河詠麟出場,因為我不在場,所以沒有出現。後來他問我為何沒有出現,我便向他解釋原因,他便安排我入住酒店,直到演唱會完結。所以便有第三次呼喚我上台,這是我第二次成為嘉賓跟他一起唱「朋友」,真是十分興奮。到八月他的生日會也有邀請我做嘉賓,其實每一件發生的事情都是有關係的。
後來我在北角僑冠大厦租了一間劏房居住,有一次從北角行到中環,看到一間職業介紹公司的招聘啟示,我便前往應徵。當時職員說我可以教英文,但我不是教師,他認為沒有問題,便介紹我到一間補習社工作。在補習社工作了幾個月,有一位同事看到一張電視台的海報,需要招聘 一個西方人,但要懂得說中文。我致電應徵,他是一位獨立經紀,我說沒有經驗和廣東話也不是很好,他說沒有問題。我便去見一位電視台女監製,她給我一段英文劇本,要我讀出來。因為很緊張,五分鐘都不能出聲,我跟自己說,不嘗試會後侮一生。那一段對白是警官責備下級,責備人一定是很大聲的,所以我便很大聲說出來。當時她正在做自己的事,沒有再理會我,但我的叫聲使她大吃一驚。因為沒有其他外國人給她選擇,她無奈地聘請了我,這套劇集需要兩個西方人,另外一位是當主角,從那時開始,便在電視台工作了二十年。
二零一四年九月我在N o w T V的一個音樂節目做嘉賓,在一間音樂室裡我和三位節目主持人,唱歌和談論音樂。到最近才知道,他們三位是100毛的老闆。到聖誕100毛找我拍攝雜誌封面,我不知為何找我拍攝封面,原來三位老闆是認識我的,只是我自己不知道。
二零一五年八月他們聯絡我,他們有一首歌,問我會否願意演唱,那首歌曲我很熟悉,歌詞十分口語化,應該可以學到的。但當時是星期五,表演是在星期日,只得兩天時間作準備,所以我很用心練習。舞台是有電視屏幕可以看到歌詞,但我盡量避免看電視屏幕,只是有需要時才看一看,便可以放心地唱。能夠上台非常開心,我可以扮了演一個角色,唱一首悅耳和有趣的歌,觀眾很熱鬧和興奮,真是十分難得。我知道這是一生一次,這不是自己可以做到,是他們給我機會。那首歌很受歡迎,而且登上了流行榜。聖誕節前他們聯絡我,表示將會舉辦總選,問我會否參加,我便欣然答應了。當天每位表演者,會有兩首歌曲,在十二月廿六日接到新歌,我從沒有聽過那首歌,是一首說唱歌曲,而且歌詞很陌生,對我來說十分困難,所以我不停地練習了四百多次。當晚表演由Now T V直播,有七十萬人觀看,想不到自己能夠獲得香港區最受歡迎男歌星獎,當宣佈我的名字時,極度開心,無人能想到,唱出真香港的歌曲,是由一個西方人唱出,可以感動到別人。這是天時地利人和,超乎現實,簡直是一個奇蹟。因為那首歌不是我揀選,是別人給我的,練習這首歌時眼睛常常都會充了滿淚水和很感動。
西方人在香港發展演藝事業是十分困難的,機會不多,只能扮演一些無關重要的角色,但我從來沒有想過放棄。五年前我計劃灌錄一張唱片,因為胃酸倒流,把聲帶灼傷,使我聲音變得沙啞,這件事使我非常懊惱,因為辛苦練習多年,卻發生了這個問題,後來我矯正了唱歌方法,問題得以改善,可以繼續唱歌,現在準備為唱片再進行錄音工作。
最近有很多關於少數族裔的事情出現在我身上 ,現在我為一個港台節目做旁白,是關於少數族裔在香港。他們在本地娛樂圈發展是十分困難,因為在一個有九成是同一種族的地方,看電視或電影,也是會看自己的種族,未必會看少數族裔。如果他們幾個人合作,做一個節目,然後在網上發放,是有機會成功。香港有很多少數族裔居住,有些人的中文比我好,他們也愛香港。
我心目中的香港人,是要做香港人做的事,吃香港人吃的食物,關心香港,不看膚色,希望他們也能說廣東話,最重要是覺得香港是自己的家,這便是真正的香港人。
I am Gregory. I hail from Queensland, Australia. During my high school years, my grades were excellent. They were good enough for me to enroll in any subject that I wanted to in university. At that time, I wanted to become a doctor because I could help others. I studied Medicine at the University of New South Wales. In my first year, I lived in my friend’s home located in North Sydney. During my second year, I lived in International House at the university. It was a rule for the school campus to have at least 50 percent overseas students. They cannot be Australians. I met a lot of Hong Kong, Singaporean and Malaysian friends in my first two years. I was able to get along with them very well. But what is most important was that after living in International House, I came across Hong Kong pop music. One day I was walking along the corridors and overheard beautifully melodic music. I asked my classmate what music he was listening to and if he could lend me the music to listen to. He leant it to me.
I have forgotten whether it was the music of Leslie or Alan. But I am sure it was one of them because I really liked that kind of music. I went to Chinatown to buy it. Eventually, I listened to the music as I read the lyrics. In turn, I slowly picked up a lot of Chinese characters.
I attended many different functions to perform Cantonese songs in university because I really liked to sing. I also attended a singing competition organized by the Hong Kong student association. The competition song was ‘Root of Love’. In the end I won second runner-up. I clearly remember International House wanted to organize cultural exchanges so they held international banquets each year. Their hope was for students from different ethnic backgrounds to perform and share their culture.
In 1985, Leslie won an award for singing ‘Monica’. It was a song that I really loved. During the international cultural exchange banquet, I chose to sing ‘Monica’. At that time my classmates were very surprised. How can I sing ‘Monica’? I followed the videos to learn the dance steps and singing techniques. I kept on practicing in public. Other students witnessed how hard I was practicing and came over to help me out. A few classmates became my accompanying dancers as I danced on stage. The performance that night was extremely successful.
Leslie and a group of Hong Kong superstars visited Australia to hold concerts in 1985. The concert organizer needed a voluntary driver. My friends asked me whether I wanted to be the voluntary driver. I accepted the offer. In the end I found out that I would become Leslie’s driver. There was one day when he was on break and did not need to rehearse. We drove to Canberra. It was cloudy and there was light rain on that day. We could not see clearly. After having a coffee, we left. Leslie was next to drive. His English was very good. During the journey back we chatted happily. The trip was very important to me.
In 1986, Alan came to Australia. I was also his driver. Our mutual friend misread my name as “Ho Wing Lun” in front of my idol during his stay at the hotel. I was not able to correct him at the time because Alan (“Wing Lun”) was my idol. Many people thought I was called “Ho Wing Lun” for around two years. His four back-up singers knew I was able to sing Alan’s songs. That was why they told him about it. During rehearsal day, he told me to sing with him on stage. Knowing superstars like Leslie and Alan had a great impact on me. To be able to listen to their songs and to witness the reactions from the audience led me to become interested in a singing career in Hong Kong.
I did not put in a lot of effort in my studies because I always thought of Chinatown and singing. Consequently, I failed my medical examinations in my third year. I had to re-take my subjects. In 1986, I re-took my studies for three months but then I decided to quit school.
In the end I juggled three dish washing jobs and also many months of brick laying work. I saved up a whole year of my salary and bought a one-way ticket to Hong Kong. I also carried $1000 Australian dollars on me. I then went to Hong Kong to develop my career. I only asked my friend whether I could stay at his place as preparation to living in my new homeland. His father reluctantly agreed but had to receive rent. I did not have anything equipped or prepared. I only purposely bought a one-way ticket because I did not want to easily give up when I encountered minor difficulties and return to Australia.
When I first arrived in Hong Kong, I did not know anything. I did not have any plans. I also did not have any friends. Initially, I lived in Broadcast Drive but my friend did not live there because he was still studying. I did not have anything to do at first. That was why I hung around Hong Kong for several days. One day, by coincidence, I came across Hung Hom Coliseum. At the entrance, there were four men smoking. They noticed me and surprisingly called out “Ho Wing Lun”. They were, in fact, members of Alan’s band. We have first met in 1986. Surprisingly, they remembered me after a whole year. That is called fate. At that time, Alan was preparing for his concert. The four men brought me inside the Coliseum. I saw Alan. There were 31 shows in his 1987 concert. I watched 30 of them. I intended to watch all 31 shows but there was a slight problem. There were rules at my guest house. After ten thirty each night, the door to the home will be locked. Nobody was allowed to enter or leave the house. But concerts do not end so early. So, after watching each concert in the evening, I would walk to Tsim Sha Tsui and then walk back to Broadcast Drive. I would sleep on the concreate seats outside the park. When the park opens at five in the morning, I will go in and sleep. Eventually, I was unable to handle it. One night I cannot watch a show. Once Alan asked me “Can you sing on stage tonight?” I told him “Of course I can.” I became his special guest. Alan was extremely happy when I first performed. By the second show, he announced that: “There is a westerner who can sing my songs very well.” He called out my name “Ho Wing Lun!” But because I was not at the scene, I did not show up. Eventually, he asked me why I did not show up. I explained my reason to him. He then arranged a hotel for me to stay at until the end of the concert. That was why he was able to call me out the third time! That was my second time as special guest singing “Friends” with him. It was exhilarating. In August, he introduced me as a special guest at his birthday party. Actually, everything happens for a reason and everything is interconnected.
Soon after, I rented a tiny flat at a building in North Point to live in. I walked from North Point to Central once. I came across a recruitment agency looking to hire. I went in to give it a shot. At that time, the staff said I could teach English but I was not a teacher. The staff said it was not a problem and introduced me to work at a learning center. After working there for a few months, a colleague saw a TV station’s poster. They were looking to recruit a westerner but that person needs to be able to speak Cantonese. I called to give it a try. The person who answered was an independent agent. I told that agent I had no experience and my Cantonese was not very good. The agent told me it was not a problem. I went to see the TV station’s female producer. She gave me an English script and wanted me to read it out. I was so nervous that I did not utter a word in five minutes. I told myself, if I do not try, I will regret it for life. The dialogue depicted a police telling off a subordinate. When you tell someone off, you must be very loud so, I read my lines out very loudly. At that time, the female producer was doing her own work and did not care about me but because I was so loud, I frightened her! As there were no other westerners for her to choose from, she had no choice but to hire me. The TV show required two westerners. The other westerner played the main character. From then onwards, I worked at the TV station for twenty years.
In September 2014, I appeared as a guest on a NowTV music program. I was in a band room with the three show hosts. We sang and discussed music. Only recently, I found out that they were the Founders of 100 Most. When it was Christmas, 100 Most invited me to appear on the cover of their magazine. I did not know why they wanted me to do it – only to find out that the Founders of the magazine already knew who I was! It was just me who did not know that.
In August 2015, 100 Most contacted me and asked me whether I wanted to sing this particular song. I was very familiar with the song lyrics. The lyrics were very colloquial. I should be able to learn it. It was Friday. The performance was on Sunday. I only had two days to prepare for it. That was why I practiced very hard. The stage showcased the lyrics. But I tried my best not to look at them. I would only glance at them when I needed to. I felt more confident and assured as I sang.
I was extremely elated to be able to perform on stage. I can play a role singing a wonderful and amusing song. The audience was super warm and excited. It was a moment to be treasured. I know this can only happen once in my life. It cannot be done by myself. It is because I was given a chance by 100 Most. The song was very popular and hit the charts. Before Christmas, 100 Most contacted me and expressed that there would be a final election of the songs. They asked me whether I would like to participate. I was more than happy to give it a try. On the day of the show, each contestant would have two songs.
On the 26th of December, I received the new song. I have never heard of the song before. It was a rap song. I was very unfamiliar with the lyrics. I found them very difficult. That was why I kept practicing it for more than four hundred times. The show was broadcasted live by NowTV. Around seven hundred thousand people watched the broadcast. I cannot imagine winning the Best Hong Kong Male Singer. When my name was announced, I was extremely delighted. Nobody can imagine that a westerner was able to sing a song about ‘real Hong Kong’. It can touch people. It was something that happened at the right place and at the right time. It was also surreal and a complete miracle. It is because the song was not selected by me. It was given to me by others. My eyes were often wet from practicing this song. I was very touched.
It is very difficult for westerners to develop their artistry in the entertainment industry. Chances are slim. They can only play roles that are irrelevant and unimportant. But I never thought of giving up. Five years ago I planned to record my own album. But because of stomach acid reflux, my vocal chords got damaged. My voice became hoarse and coarse. It brought me a lot of frustrations because I have worked hard for many years. Then this happened. I then amended my singing techniques and the issue improved significantly. I was able to sing again. I am now working on re-recording my new album.
A lot of ethnic minority issues materialized around me as of late. I am currently the voice over for a RTHK program about ethnic minorities in Hong Kong. It is very hard for them to develop their career in the local entertainment industry. It is because when 90 percent of the people share the same skin color comes together in a particular place, those watching TV or film will tend to watch people of their own skin color. They may not watch ethnic minorities. If a group of ethnic minorities work together to create a program for the web, it may work out. There are a lot of ethnic minorities residing in Hong Kong. Some of their Chinese is better than mine. They also love Hong Kong very much.
‘Hong Kongers’, to me, are people who need to do things ‘Hong Kongers’ do. Eat Hong Kong food. Care about Hong Kong. And do not look at skin color. I hope they can also speak Cantonese. Most importantly, they should regard Hong Kong as their home. Then, they are ‘real Hong Kongers’.

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
大事なものをいつも 私は間違えるの
微笑みに みんな何かを隠してる
もう誰も知らない 約束がひとつ
物語の始まりと 終わりを繋いでた
呼び合っているような 雲雀の声だけ遠く
雲の向こうへ 草原に優しい影を残して
ねえ 本当はいつだって 光の中にいたよね
愛の形を 見つけにゆくの
羽を休めることを 雲雀は知らないの
ひたむきな 風を選んで 天高く
太陽の元へと 駆け上がるようだと
子供たちが指さした 光の道しるべ 空へ
懐かしくあどけない 悲しみを捨ててゆこう
ひとすじ空へ舞い上がる 翼に心をのせて
ねえ 本当はいつだって 一人は寂しいからね
大事なものは ひとつじゃないの
呼び合っているような 雲雀の声だけ遠く
雲の向こうへ 草原に優しい影を残して
ねえ 本当はいつだって光の中にいたよね
辿りつきたい ところがあるの
愛の形を 見つけにゆくの
中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
明知一直以來面對的事物有多重要,我卻總是不停地擦肩錯過
在笑容的背後,人們試圖隱藏著什麼呢?
已無人能夠再次憶起,那獨自被遺忘的約定
接續著這篇故事,點起序章至最後的結局
猶如相互呼應般,雲雀的鳴叫響徹遠方
直至浮雲的彼端,在草原上遺留溫柔的影跡
聽我說,我其實一直以來都靜待於耀眼的光芒之中——
探尋著,愛戀的輪廓
雲雀並不知道,究竟何時該收起羽翼停歇
僅是一筆向上,乘著所選的風,穿過遼闊的天邊
「就像是要飛向太陽一樣,朝上飛去吧!」
孩子們伸出手指這麼說著,待到雲雀抵至蒼穹的耀眼標的
忘卻並捨棄過往令人懷念的稚嫩與哀愁吧
展開乘載著意念與心緒的羽翼,筆直向著天際翱翔
聽我說,我其實一直都是獨自一人承受種種孤寂落寞
但珍貴的事物,並不僅此唯一
猶如相互呼應般,雲雀的鳴叫響徹遠方
直至浮雲的彼端,在草原上遺留溫柔的影跡
聽我說,我其實一直以來都靜待於耀眼的光芒之中——
尋覓著,想要抵達的終點
探尋著,愛戀的輪廓
英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
As always I misunderstand what really is important
Everyone seems to hide something behind those smiles
There is a promise that no one knows
Connecting the beginning and the ending to complete a story
Far away echoes only the Skylark's song calling each other
Heading to the cloud, leaving a gentle shadow on the grassland
Hey, the truth is you have always been in the light
The you who's been searching to find the form of love
The Skylarks has never rested their wings
They choose the relentless wind,
And soar to the sky
Flying up high to where the sun lies
The children pointed their fingers
Guiding them to the path of the light
To the sky..
Let's throw these pains away
By reminiscing about our nostalgic and innocent days
Put your heart on the wings and soar to the sky
Hey, you who always alone,
The truth is you're also surrounded by sadness
The most important thing is not just one,
Far away echoes only the Skylark's song calling each other
Heading to the cloud, leaving a gentle shadow on the grassland
Hey, the truth is you have always been in the light
The place you've been searching for always
The you who's been searching to find the form of love...
