"The QUEEN of News" Sub Song (Selena Lee Live Version)



"Crystal Clear" - Selena Lee

Crystal Clear 《新聞女王》 片尾曲 - 李施嬅

作曲: 江暉
填詞: 呂喬恩

Feel the earth on the hill
I couldn't make it clear. I'm so confused
Face to face, It's still a stranger face
Can't recognize who's in the mirror, blurred and faded

*Feel the heart silently
Through which I can see myself, It's crystal clear
I found a mirror somewhere in my heart
Beautiful, it's beautiful, deep inside my heart

#Try to brighten up your eyes
Cos' the truth will never lie
Dust swiped away and make it clear in my mind
It's hard yet still have gotta try
Cos' the truth will never die
For always, All the way, All the time*
In the darkness, see the real you with your eyes
Remember it's you, that is you#

Repeat *#

It's you

Charmaine Sheh, Kenneth Ma, Selena Lee, Venus Wong, Regina Ho, et al. went to Shaw Studios to film the new series "The QUEEN of News" today. Charmaine has returned to her mother company, TVB, to film a series. She expressed that she has been filming happily because the script is great, and has not collaborated with the actors and the behind the scenes for a long time. Because the old friends are very harmonious in private, has been working happily. Having not filmed a TVB series for a long time, has anything changed? Charmaine described it as being just as happy, but would only know if there is any difference after seeing the finished project; however, the filming process and script have made her very confident in the new series: "Everyone is working very hard on the filming. Believe that the finished product will make people satisfied. (There's a difference from being used to filming big productions?) This one is also a big production!"

Charmaine said that the time to rest is more sufficient this time. The producer cares for the actors and is fighting for time to rest for everyone: "[If] we aren't pretty, then the producer suffers a loss! New actors are afraid of you because of your aura?) At the beginning, it's just that everyone was not familiar with one another. You ask them now again to see". She said that it is tough for those before the screen and behind the scenes, so she treated everyone to eat. Speaking of her performance, Charmaine admitted that it's difficult: "Because it has to be said smoothly, but the dialogue is also difficult, so I have chosen to write it down to help me remember it; thus, the set is full of my calligraphy!" Charmaine also laughingly said that she wants to make a cameo on the news channel, laughingly saying that she would also be happy to have an opportunity to report on the weather. She pointed out that, in order to get immersed, the series crew arranged for the actors to go to the news department for training. She has even asked to use the recording studio for practice from the executive producer of the news department.

Asked if she would film another TVB series, Charmaine said, "Have always said that it depends on the script. [If] there is a good script, would cherish it. (Still have a series debt?) No. It has also been many years!" She laughingly said that she would film again if there is fate. Asked if there is anyone she admires out of the new partners this time, Charmaine expressed that she really likes Venus but denied that it is because she is a 'sister-in-law': "It's the first time collaborating. On her first day, when she got into position, she was already immersed into the role. Seeing her fully prepared also had an effect on me. (Which one needs to improve?) Myself. Always have to be better".

Selena and Kenneth are former lovers in the series; they are each other's deepest former love. Kenneth also has a passionate performance with Regina. Talking about having many female partners in the series, Selena laughingly said that she also has two partners. Because doing the news is too stressful, need romance to reduce stress. Asking Selena if she would continue to film TVB series, she laughingly said, "[If] there's a good script and good partners, would certainly film. Kenneth and Charmaine are both good partners. Would also go film wherever there are good scripts".

Kenneth said that the most of the series this time are the battles in terms of the news. He has competition with Charmaine and Selena. Selena described herself as a 'sharp-tongued Barbie' who yells as everyone in the series: "No one dares to yell at Charmaine. I'm the only one who would yell [at her]...grabbing [her] by the collar while scolding [her]. It's the hardest part of the series, but I also really like her. In the series, I am not a good girl...not gentle and would quarrel with others due to [my] stance". Selena described it as having never played this type of role...have to learn to say the key points, and even had to memorize some dialogue for a month, frankly saying that, after playing it, she really admires journalists. Kenneth also expressed that he would also use anchors as objects of imitation.

Regina expressed that her performance this time is a big challenge because the character is full of ambitions and even has a mood disorder, but she would not get emotionally troubled, laughingly saying that, when under pressure, [she] would consume sugar to reduce stress. Regina has a lot of feelings about playing an anchor. Apart from controlling [her] line of sight, also needs arm-leg coordination, frankly saying that it's difficult. She has a romantic storyline with Kenneth; she described it as her most intense performance: "The previous performances were also just superficial contact. This time, there is action and passion". Venus described the two's performance as being 'very hot'.

Venus' character in the series is a sunny happy person, but her personality causes trouble, and everyone is afraid of her, laughingly saying that everyone in the entire department except Regina has yelled at her. For the performance, she did her homework beforehand. Speaking of Charmaine praising Venus by name, she expressed her gratitude. She was cautious and careful when facing Charmaine at first. There was a big scene that made her extremely nervous; afterward, Charmaine also discussed it with her. She expressed that she worked hard to prepare beforehand. Venus highly praised Charmaine for being very pretty when she was immersed in her performance, even treating everyone to a meal to get acquainted with one another, and was also very welcoming of discussing the performance together.

Selena Lee Returning to TVB to Have an Acting Battle with Charmaine Sheh

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

ontv Clip

Charmaine Sheh, Samantha Ko, Regina Ho, and Kenneth Ma were already confirmed earlier to film the new TVB series "The QUEEN of News" produced by Chung Shu Kai in March. Korean dramas and US dramas often use news anchors as its theme, but TVB has never filmed this series genre. The shooting period of this series is expected to be about half a year. This time, Chung Shu Kai is personally shooting it, and has invited Charmaine to return to her mother company to film the series. The production of this series is quite strict. Apart from being a customized series in collaboration with Mainland, the shoot will also follow the Mainland format. The script, [script] reading, styling, etc. are meticulous, and the series crew will be looking for a movie team to assist in the cinematography, art, and lighting.

Producer Chung Shu Kai revealed the character setup in an interview the other day. Apart from Selena Lee joining the series, TV king Shaun Tam even has a romantic storyline with Charmaine and is a key figure in [her] life. It is known that some important roles are still looking for suitable actors, and the news cases in the series will be looking for many actors to act them out. Chung Shu Kai pointed out that the series is full of 'mean girls'. The story takes place in a news corporation. Everyone becomes a villain for a power struggle. The main story begins with lead Charmaine having to leave her anchor position.

Change in Immune System Index

The female characters in the series are anchors from different news reporting times. Charmaine is the top female anchor during prime time, and the male anchor partnering her is Kenneth. The noon anchor is Selena, while Samantha and Regina are the morning and evening anchors respectively. With Charmaine's departure, everyone hopes to strive for the 'Prime Time Female Anchor' position. The anchors each have their own ulterior motives and resort to workplace means to fight for power!

Each character setup has its own attractiveness. Samantha is Kenneth's disciple. She has a cheerful personality, is clever, and is a lovable bombshell. Her styling is pretty and captivating. Kenneth wants to nurture her to become Charmaine's successor. As for Selena playing Kenneth's ex-girlfriend, she has an upright and tough personality and is full of enthusiam for work. She is originally quite upright, but only later are her true colours revealed. Selena has not filmed for TVB since she finished filming "Barrack O'Karma 1968". Last year, due to issues with her immune system, she halted work for a while to recuperate. She revealed in an interview, "Last September, [I] was working as a producer for 'Tape', and there was a change in the immune system index. That month, the pressure and workload were too much, and the index increased. It was so scary. I got very nervous immediately. I will try my best to adjust my workload now. Have to be more relaxed! However, I feel relieved that Director Kai is personally shooting it. Will not be staying up all night, and it will not be too tough. Everyone has enough time to rest, and I have been observing my situation now".

Selena frankly said that, apart from the character and the script being captivating, the producer is also a main reason for accepting this series: "Actually, Director Kai already approached me last February. Have always been discussing schedules. I have not worked with him before, but really admire him. He even wrote the story and is shooting it this time. I already received ten episodes of the script early on. Have always been looking at it". As for going against Charmaine after many years, she pointed out that the two previously collaborated in 'When Easterly Showers Fall on the Sunny West', 'Can't Buy Me Love', 'Beyond the Realm of Conscience', and other series: "Haven't encountered each other for many years, so really want to film again, and I really like the theme this time. There are many foreign series that talk about news anchors. I am also a fan and really like to watch them. Hope that everything goes smoothly". She also revealed that she went to Singapore to do a stage performance the other day, performing three shows with singer Jeff Chang. She said with a smile, "Can finally do stage performances...very happy". She is currently out of town on vacation with her husband, embarking on a spiritual cleansing journey.

As for Samantha, who is playing a bombshell in the series, she expressed in an interview, "My character has a relatively high EQ, a bright and beautiful appearance, and a cheerful personality, so many people like her; however, beneath that, she does not have much of a family background, so she is very hardworking and has to rely on herself to get what she wants. (Everyone is a mean girl in the series!) There are personnel issues in every industry. Being a female anchor would definitely have personnel disputes and competition. There is good and evil in human nature. I think that it'll be a lot of fun!"

Kenneth Ma Admits to Being a Man of the World, Wedding Has a Lot of Sponsors

This time, TV king Kenneth is playing a tall, stylish, and funny male anchor who is popular in the bureaucracy and the business world. In the series, he is surrounded by mean girls, but he is also not an ordinary person. He expressed in an interview, "I am already looking at the script. This time, the character is a well-rounded man of the world who engages in workplace politics and especially battles with Charmaine! (Selena also has many scenes with you?) Selena and I used to collaborate all the time, like 'A Fistful of Stances' and 'Ghost Dragon of Cold Mountain', but it's been a long time. To be able to collaborate again is very hard to come by". Mentioning that this series will take a long time to film, does his wedding with Roxanne Tong need to be postponed? He said, "I'm thinking that it will be in the second half of the year. Have been planning recently. Looking at a lot of information. Very happy. A lot of people said that they would sponsor us. Have also been preparing for the time being".

Selena Lee Encounters Strange Things When Singing Self-Composed Interlude for "Barrack O'Karma 1968": Had to Pass Three Levels Before Recording It

The TVB series "Barrack O'Karma 1968" will be premiering on April 4th. Apart from starring, female lead Selena Lee also become a composer for the first time and released her first work, 《相愛萬年》.

She expressed in an interview, "The song 《相愛萬年》 was written with my younger female cousin. She was thinking of the love story in the first installment of 'Barrack O'Karma' while creating it, while I was thinking of 'Barrack 1968'; thus, for me, 《相愛萬年》 is not just a love song, and it also represents my scenes, emotions, and desires in 'Barrack 1968', which are my personal feelings when I put myself into character.

For this song to be able become one of the interludes of 'Barrack 1968', it can be said that it was fate, and it can be said that there were many obstacles. When this song was composed at first, never thought that it could be used in the series. Was really affected by 'Barrack 1968'. Was emotionally touched too much during the shoot. Suddenly had the urge to write a song. I also really like the classic theme song 《今宵多珍重》, so I never thought about being able to put my own song in the series.

After finishing writing the song, heard that the producer was actually looking for a song to act as the series' interlude, so I hummed a few words at random for him to listen to. Little did [I] know that he would think that it was suitable, and it naturally became one of the songs in the series. However, if it's related to 'Barrack', many strange things would usually occur, and this song was no exception.

From the first recording, couldn't record because I suddenly lost my voice. When it came to the second recording, couldn't record because the floor above the recording studio was renovating. For the third recording, our record producer, Davy, suddenly got admitted into the hospital. Also get the chills hearing about it. Luckily, there were no problems when it came to the fourth time. Saying it like a joke, it felt as though 'Barrack' was trying to test our sincerity. Has to pass three levels, but thankful that everyone had a lot of heart and was persistent in doing a good job on this song".

相愛萬年 《金宵大廈2》 插曲 - 李施嬅

作曲: 李施嬅/蔡慧芝
填詞: 林若寧
編曲: 古馳
監製: 譚國政

相隔萬年團聚 鞏固大橋已一一粉碎
我的呼吸裡 還是有誰
經過萬年沈睡 恐怕睡床已只得飛絮
你溫馨觸覺 仍像細水
Let time fly Till I die

被隔開都與你 共享這一個記憶區
遺跡中 月光裡
讓你一生遙距 分享我樂趣

*宇宙記不起 但仍認得你
約定要一起 流浪下雪天地
愛越過生死 萬年後的你
隔住了千禧 刻骨銘記

相隔萬年懷念 想你面型會怎麼轉變
接觸差一線 還是擦肩
Let time fly Till I die

未看真一個你 在枕邊轉眼到天邊
遲一刻 又一世
共處於地平線 即將會遇見

Repeat *

宇宙會枯死 亦存在的你
各自各一起 同在下雪天地 嬉戲
到下次相識 又重遇的你
歲月已灰飛 都記得你

The new TVB series "Barrack O'Karma 1968", starring Joel Chan and Selena Lee, will be broadcasting on April 4th. Returning to film the sequel this time, Selena also has a new breakthrough; it turns out that she sang the series' interlude, 《相愛萬年》. She even personally took part in creating the song. She announced the news of the song release on her social media: "Singing and composing for the first time. My own song for the first time. Looking forward to it". Her partner, Joel, immediately left a message of support: "Looking forward to it. Looking forward to it".

Selena accepted on.cc's interview today. She said that the new song was created by her and her younger female cousin: "It was composed for 'Barrack'; however, at the time, didn't think that it would be used. It just so happened that the producer said that he was looking for a song for the series. He listened to my song by chance and thought that it was suitable, so he used it. Very happy. Was arranged by the heavens. I was in charge of composing; Riley Lam wrote the lyrics. Had to hand the lyrics over to a master level; he was able to write out the picture that I had wanted. The song will be officially released next Monday".

She frankly said that she had written songs when she debuted, but no one ever made inquiries, and there were no singing opportunities until the previous year when she sang with Gabriel Harrison: "At that time, collaborated once with a record company. They wanted to collaborate again and asked me to write a song. When I wrote it, didn't know that it could be used in the series. Very happy that the boss of the record company is so supportive and trusting of me, as I am not a singer. He was the one who gave me the courage to sing and compose the song".

Artiste Selena Lee attended a restaurant opening as a guest, revealing that the restaurant owner previously invested in her single. Later, she will release another new song that she created herself, and it is expected that he will also continue to support it. She, who just completed "Barrack O'Karma 2", expressed that she will be flying to Canada next month to shoot a series, which is tentatively scheduled to be completed on Lunar New Year's Eve. Since the first day of the Lunar New Year coincides with her lunar birthday, she intends to celebrate and spend the Lunar New Year there. She said, "My mom is in Toronto. The pandemic situation is very serious now with over a thousand confirmed cases every day...also worried. Will buy disinfectant supplies, and the crew will also take safety measures".

Regarding it being said that TVB is building up for Vincent Wong to win 'TV King' this year, and as a result, Ruco Chan's new series, "Chinatown", which he stars in and sings the theme song, has been forced to give way. Selena expressed, "It should be gossip. (Which means that Vincent cannot get it?) There is a chance. His acting skills are good, but from a commercial perspective, would be pushing other people. Everyone approves of Vincent's acting skills. (Related to contractual matters?) Don't know. (When you left the company before, there were also rumours of contractual issues?) None. I left very comfortably. There was no pressure. Everyone had a great relationship, and also did not experience getting frozen by the company. When I left, no longer had any contract. It was a low-key departure".

Speaking of her good friend, Myolie Wu, winning the 'Best Performer of the Year' award at a Mainland variety programme, Selena highly praised her as being a competent girl: "Very competent. Not only acting skills, but there was also the language. Recited all the dialogue in Mandarin in such a short period of time...so fluent and had all the emotions. In the 'Nonsense Club', only she can do it. Very incredible for a Hong Kong actor to win in a Mainland programme. Proud of her. Later, waiting for her to return to celebrate".

Asian Television Awards 2020 Nominations

The '25th Asian Television Awards' announced the nomination list today. Selena Lee is nominated for 'Best Actress in a Leading Role' for playing a Senior Forensic Pathologist in the Forensic Pathology Division for the TVB series "Forensic Heroes IV", competing for the 'TV Queen' award with "The Mirror"'s Cheryl Yang, "The Rootless"' Yogurt Lee, "The Story of Three Springs"' Chen Meifeng, et al.

When interviewed by a reporter from hk01, Selena expressed being extremely surprised: "Aiya...very happy! Because, actually, I was nominated for 'Comedy Actor/Actress' before and have not been nominated since then, so really very happy". In [2014], Selena was nominated for 'Best Comedy Performance by an Actor/Actress' for the Singaporean series "Spouse for House", but in the end, she lost to Irene Ang, who played her mother-in-law in the same series. "Last time, it was already very difficult to make it in, but this time, 'Best Actress in a Leading Role', is also very difficult. To be nominated, considering that I have won. I am really very excited!"

Selena was also slightly stunned because she is nominated for "Forensic" instead of 'Coco Jie' in "Barrack O'Karma": "Actually, it can be said that 'Forensic' is really the most difficult role to play because I had to say a lot of professional terms, and there was a lot of dialogue, but because I am a professional, there would be more emotional scenes. However, from the audience's perspective, would like 'Barrack' more because there was a lot to do. (A booster for the year-end awards presentation?) Well, the contest is not the same. The two are directly proportional, but 'Forensic' had good results this year. Hope that 'Forensic' will have good results!"

Selena Lee appeared in Kowloon City today to attend Wai Yin Association's reusable masks donation event. She even danced in the promotional clip, showing off her flexible muscles and bones: "Wanted to hand out environmentally friendly masks this time because creating garbage every day is not a solution. These masks have disinfectant ingredients on the inside. I had to dance in the promotional clip to show that there were no problems with the spine. Able to help people and protect the environment".

Selena, who is currently busy filming the TVB series "Barrack O'Karma 2", has to rush back to the series crew after the event. Regarding the plot of "Barrack 2", she said that she could not disclose even more due to contractual issues but was confident that it would surprise the viewers: "Signed a contract...cannot disclose it. I can't disclose it even if I wanted to. Can only say that, this time, it is even more extreme than last time's story...gave [me] goosebumps upon reading it, so there will be surprises. (What gave you goosebumps?) In terms of the plot. There are many more new members. There are a lot of good actors, such as Christine [Ng]. Watched the clips a few days ago, and the entire thing was very pretty. This time, there is a little bit more in the budget. Last time, it was a very low budget. Hope to be able to give more surprises to the viewers this time".

"Barrack 2" is playing with parallel universes. Selena has to perform an entirely new character. She frankly said that it is a big challenge in acting: "Joel Chan and I have an even greater challenge in acting. Played two characters in the previous installment. This time, the new character has to do things that were not done last time. Have to constantly add character...a bit frustrating and strenuous. It is a rather big challenge. (Have a romantic storyline with Joel?) Yes. The same as last time. Ten cases. Joel and I will intersperse throughout. Our romantic storyline is really different from last time. In terms of acting, it is harder work. Have to rack [my] brains to do some new things for the viewers to see".

The Aftereffect of "Barrack O'Karma", Selena Lee: Something That Seems Unpromising Does Not Mean That It Is Not Good

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

ontv Clip

Selena Lee, who has been in the industry for 17 years, played 'Alex' and 'Coco' in last year's series "Barrack O'Karma". Her acting skills were highly recognized; she even won 'Most Popular TV Female Character' at the "TV Awards Presentation" for the first time. She, whose contract with TVB officially ended last year, signed with an American management company and has decided to venture outside.

After competing in Miss Hong Kong in 2003, Selena did not make the top three but was the first of those in the same year to film series. She has started going to other countries to film series in recent years, and has often played several roles in series. Playing 'Alex' and 'Coco' in last year's "Barrack" made her win 'Most Popular TV Female Character' for the first time. That night, Miriam Yeung also won the same award for "Wonder Women". Asked if she would mind having to share the award with others, Selena immediately laughingly said, "Last year's opponents should be of the strongest in all these years, and I was able to chance upon it. Sharing with Miriam, she would lose out more than I would instead!"

Selena, together with Myolie Wu, Nancy Wu, Elaine Yiu, Paisley Hu, and Mandy Wong, formed the 'Nonsense Club', which is a well-known group of besties in the circle. Among them, she was previously rumoured with Myolie's husband, Philip Lee; because of this, the two's relationship is often discussed. She frankly said that there was a time when she had many rumoured boyfriends: "Everyone magnified the matter, saying that who was whoever's ex. Everything was said by others. Perhaps it was me who knew him (Philip) first. Considered that it would be possible to develop. Actually ended, and did not deliberately clarify this matter. I did not have some deep relationship with her husband. She and Myolie know that it is enough that everyone understands.

Selena has also been locked for the female role. Producer Yip Chan Fai expressed that the new series will be having brand new characters, and, like the previous installment, Selena will play two characters.

It has been said that Selena has three conditions in order for her to be willing to film: having to first look at the script, having the original team, and having even more resources. Selena denied this in an interview: "I have not made any demands. The series is the efforts of the copy writer and the producer...have to respect them. I also greatly trust in their ability and creation. Not up to me to make demands. I just need to do my part as an actor. We will be holding another meeting again to discuss. If it is [true], I will announce it. I am so happy; everyone is really anxious about this series. Many fans have also left messages, saying that they want me to film it; I also want to".

Artiste Selena Lee is breaking into the music industry for the first time, singing a new duet song, 《二次緣》, with Gabriel Harrison, and even going to a radio station to promote it. She expressed that it was the release date of the song MV; however, because of the outbreak, many people do not dare to go sing karaoke. She suggested that she and Gabriel use a mobile app to sing with the audience online. Speaking of becoming a newcomer in the music industry, she said, "Have filmed series for so many years, but have not had the chance to sing. Had a song as soon as [my] contract was finished. Thanks to Gabriel for giving me the opportunity". In order to record this song, [she] hired three singing teachers and learned singing from two singers: "Even got pointers from Pal [Sinn] and Paisley [Hu]". Gabriel laughingly said that TVB lost a treasure, highly praising Selena for singing very well.

As for Selena, she expressed that she will be heading off to Canada tomorrow to film a web series. Because [she] took part in the filming of "Forensic Heroes IV", which is currently airing, producer Mui Siu Ching wants her to return to Hong Kong to watch the finale, so [she] will do [her] best to adjust [her] schedule. Speaking of whether [she] was worried about flying, she said, "Will prepare disinfectant products to clean the seat and wear a face mask. Will also bring my own bottled water. The flight will take 15 hours. Don't have to eat airline meals, but cannot not go to the toilet. Will already be there after watching two movies and sleeping!"

The Making of "Forensic Heroes IV"

Part 1

Part 2

"Forensic Heroes IV" Theme Song MV Preview

"Secrets and Lies" - Justin Lo

圓謊 《法證先鋒IV》 主題曲 - 側田

作曲/編曲: 張家誠
填詞: 張美賢
監製: 何哲圖/韋景雲

情形像湊巧早有預謀 精算背後 總有著遺漏
誰製造騙局來圓謊 冷靜目光
看每個處心積慮的個案
線索會暗中織下一個網
秘密 收藏在哪間房
誰縱沒說話仍能講 有誰偽裝
佈滿了太多隱喻的答案
你與我半生所做天會看
結局 或意想不到 將曝光

"Forensic Heroes IV" Sub Song 1 MV Preview

"No More Tears" - Fred Cheng

不要流淚 《法證先鋒IV》 插曲 - 鄭俊弘

作曲/編曲: 張家誠
填詞: 張美賢
監製: 何哲圖/韋景雲

從前承諾多麼的真誠 場景遺留物證
離別以後 誰願翻開未言明的真相內情

如果 天空海闊有你想追
離開 傷心總會慢慢過去
重新 找得到自己 一生不要掉眼淚

"Forensic Heroes IV" Sub Song 2 MV Preview

"The Second Choice" - HANA

我不是她 《法證先鋒IV》 片尾曲 - 菊梓喬

作曲/編曲: 張家誠
填詞: 張美賢
監製: 何哲圖/韋景雲

沉迷過去在找共鳴
是感動的錯覺 用傷痕複製愛和情
從前最痛互相做證
是感情的寄託 是安全感帶領
尋覓曾有過的風景

難道我像她 讓你可隨時牽掛
還蒙著兩眼 無視各種偏差
凝望我像她 就似幅模擬的畫
真得似假 可惜你只想替她穿上婚紗

難受嗎 直到無力取替她 再痛都要放下

"Second Fate" - Gabriel Harrison & Selena Lee


MV


二次緣 - 海俊傑/李施嬅

作曲/編曲/監製: 伍樂城
填詞: 張楚翹

李:未放低 害怕灑脫到漸寒漸凍
情路再三失手遇暗湧
受傷失戀太類同 得你懂

海:待你好 但自覺心也會越來越痛
從無自信得這一份勇
事實有某位他於你心中
過每分鐘

李:回憶似大石壓那樣重
避不開心痛
將眼淚收於黑洞

海:離開惡夢讓我去護送
醒了便看通
合:期待傷口因你痊癒
再相擁

*李:遺忘舊日情歌 靈魂伴侶終於找到一個
海:終於將感情重頭認識過
李:愛是這樣傻
海:卻沒理為何
合:再痛當上多一課

合:和前任路人再不拉拖
海:再不理
李:就算喜不喜歡開不開心都要突破
海:犧牲他方能重頭遇到我
李:愛是一種直覺
海:愛令彼此無助
合:下意識 再試煉我*

海:受夠傷 被恨愛洗禮再練成倔強
迷途後再將終點定向
誰人話做失戀者要悲傷
太誇張

李:連心跳亦沒再痛或癢
幸福將補上
輸過自尊不怎樣

海:贏輸也罷未計較賣相
傷痛換理想
合:同步將這一個期望
變一雙

Repeat *

合:遺忘舊日情歌
李:靈魂伴侶終於找到一個 (海:終於都發現唯獨愛一個)
海:終於將感情重頭認識過
李:以後一起過
海:怕什麼蹉跎
李:有你永遠珍惜我

合:為何還在乎錯失幾多
李:就算喜不喜歡開不開心都要突破 (海:痛傷悲傷過後仍沒信心都要突破)
海:方能重頭熱戀過
李:世事都經歷過
海:愛用一生承諾
合:在這刻 你已屬我

Selena Lee Returns to the Twilight Mansion, Gabriel Harrison Destroys Joel Chan and Snatches 'Coco'

CREDIT IF REPOSTED


Artiste Selena Lee worked quietly at TVB for 17 years, and she finally won her first big award, 'Most Popular TV Female Character', at TVB for the role 'Coco' in "Barrack O'Karma". Her popularity has risen, and she even played the piano and sang, showing off her singing talent, at "Tung Wah Charity Show 2019". Selena's singer dream is going even further because, before her 39th birthday on February 12th, her first song, 《二次緣》, with Gabriel Harrison will be released. [She] revisited the Champagne Court, where "Barrack" was filmed, to shoot an MV with a bitter romance.

Selena shot her own MV for the first time. She paid meticulous attention to the recording, the shoot, and even every dialogue. She said, "Shooting a series is really different from an MV. It is a big breakthrough for me. Luckily, when recording, Gabriel gave me a lot of encouragement and advice, which relieved a lot of the pressure. Also learned a lot in terms of recording techniques". Although Gabriel did not participate in "Barrack", he became immersed when they were at the 'Twilight Mansion', as he suddenly said, "I have to destroy 'Ah Siu' (Joel Chan's character in 'Barrack')". The most surprising thing was that, when Gabriel's wife learned that her husband would be filming a series and dueting with Selena, there was no jealousy, and she even said, "Hope that my husband forgets about me and falls in love with Selena". She then explained, "My husband has to be invested in the character in order to have even better works".

Gabriel collaborated with Selena twice within a short period of time. He said, "Greatly thankful to her for her acting advice. Had been away from the TV circle for a while. In terms of acting, there are a lot of places that [I] could do better". Talking about the big argument scene in the MV, he praised Selena as being a good quarrelling partner: "She made it easier for me get immersed in the scene".

Gabriel's record label executive, Tommy, expressed in an interview, "Actually, before 'Barrack' aired, Selena and Gabriel filmed 'Forensic Heroes IV'. When visiting the set, the record label boss met Selena and perspicaciously felt that she was the best choice to duet with Gabriel. The two sides clicked immediately". When asked whether Selena would be officially signed as a singer, he said that he would not rule out any further collaborations with Selena.

Selena Lee and Bob Cheung did a recording for the fundraising show "Tung Wah Charity Show 2019". This project is the two's first music collaboration. Selena is playing the piano, while Bob is playing the guitar in a duet of 《今宵多珍重》. Bob recalled that, when filming "Barrack O'Karma", there was a piano in the studio. Saw Selena play the piano: "She is a hidden master. Singing has a classic flavour". Selena said that she feels nervous about performing, and told Bob to not put pressure [on her]: "I am not a musician. Previously played the piano and danced at the anniversary gala, but playing while singing is not my strength. It is also [my] first public performance. I just returned to Hong Kong from a trip. Just rehearsed with Bob last night. Doing [my] best for charity". Bob revealed that, during the rehearsal with Selena in the recording studio, there was a momentary blackout situation, which was similar to the plot of "Barrack"...extremely bizarre.

Selena went on a Maldivian trip with her 'Nonsense Club' besties earlier, and even shared swimsuit pictures on her social media. She laughingly said that there was no competition on their figures...merely showing the characteristics of each person, revealing that Myolie Wu, who had given birth, shot some bikini pictures: "Everyone, wait to look at the pictures. We had been keeping fit for the trip, so [we] went crazy and took a lot of pretty pictures, and hired professional photographers to help take pictures for us. The sexiest was Nancy Wu. Very happy this time. It is rare to match up [our schedules] for a trip. Worked on [our] schedules for a year, but Mandy could not go at the last minute. Hope to plan the next journey. Want to commemorate it while everyone is still young and in shape".

Selena Lee Gets Frightened by a Muscular Guy While Travelling Abroad

Selena laughingly said that there were no romantic encounters on her journey; however, there was a scare: "When I was washing in the private bathroom, a muscular guy almost went into my villa by mistake. I immediately closed the curtain. When he found out that he had mistaken, he left".
