Due to the raw quality of the recording and singing I couldn’t tell what exactly the new lyrics is all about, but basically it talks about some feelings about the city of Hong Kong. ( The lyrics of the original version was of course something about X’mas )

Have a listen to this, if you understand Chinese, it may bring you some smile. :)

For those who don’t understand Chinese, the very first and the last song in this medley was written by me. And I produced this song for a 9 girl group “Cookies” few years ago.

It is a great fun to:


 

1, Visualize my little musical idea in my mind.

 

2, Realize the idea into a music demo with the help of computer equipments/ synthesizers.

 

3, Sell your idea ( demo ) to record company, artist singer.

 

4, Amplify your idea with more budget from the record company, and hire top grade musician  to enhance the experience / spice up the tracks.

 

5, Communicate with lyricist  and see if he/she can breath in some new life into the song.

 

6, Further extend my idea by conducting the singer how to perform on such song. ( I usually drive the singer  crazy/ super exhausted during the vocal sessions. ask some of the singers I ‘ve worked with if you want more evidences. )

 

7, Finalize my song ( or it gradually becomes the artist’s song ) in the post production stage by fixing, vocal tuning, editing and mixing.

 

8, Seeing my tiny melodic idea becoming a real product which people cannot see or touch, but can feel and  listening to. Then if I am lucky, I may hear the audience started to sing with the song, or even …… move their body, and started to ….. Dance. ( on street/ YouTube )

 

9. Witness the musical impact to the world from the audience’s physical music response.

 

10. Sit back, relax and think, ” Hey, this song is written by James Ting. ” And wear a smile or tears on my face.  And most importantly, Thank GOD.
