Musician’s note: My friend and I wrote the lyrics for this song for the Taiwanese pop artiste, Elva. The song was Mandarin to begin with, but they were hoping to break into the English-speaking market, and enlisted our help to do so. So, MM and I came up with these lyrics, definitely on the corny...

In your eyes
I see the inner fire
What a beautiful day to throw away
What a beautiful day.
Dream tongiht
I see myself destroy
What a tragical day to go away

Silent longing has filled me with fright
Across the room
We share a secret moment
Breathless, like...

Musician’s note: After I got it on with a beautiful man named Michael many, many years ago, I wrote this song for the heck of it after I found out he was a jerk.

I’m a harlot, you’re the buyer
Stripping me bare like you skin a hare

Musician’s note: I wrote this song after when I was in secondary school. I went with my mother to pick up my cousin, who is mentally-retarded, from school and we found a group of boys laughing and mocking him. The only person who had bothered to stand up for him was a girl in his...
