Re: lyric meanings
Hey jus saw yr req on the forum & tot I'll share wz u though it is not
a direct translation of the lyrics but the gist of it...as my Mandarin
isn't fantastic either:
The night is cold, let the night stars brighten up the dark skies.
Like a small voice, the past songs linger in the wind creeping into my
heart.
I do not hide that I hope my love does not come only once.
But with dissapointment, I'm still as before.
Who will walk with me still the end of time.
Chorus:
I'm looking for someone to lean on.
Where is the love, it's laughable what I'm still yearning for.
I'm still willing to dream about the day we've met
to commemorate that we've met before.
The night is long, there are times we have to walk alone.
No matter what, I will still find my own way.
Like a show, it's more fashionable to met & knew & loved each
other in an instant.
I still thank you, for brightening up my life once.
But who will walk with me till the end of time. *Chorus*

ANITA MUI 3 CD MEMORIAL
COLLECTION
HI anita fans,
since there are a lot of bootlegg stuff i have a question for you ... hope
you can helf me is this the real thing ? or just illegal
Anything to do with 'BID' or 'AUCTION' not through the legal way should be
altogether ignored especially when the items concern Anita's CD/VCD/DVD
albums and movies. If we purchase Anita's products through illegal way
(through copy/duplication from original albums, bidding from third party,
pirated copies), it will not help to boost the Anita's selling record. An
artist's popularity rating is based on the number of original copies sold.
Anita deserves to be awarded the highest rating for number of albums sold.

Buddhist Prayer on the 5x7

Re: Buddhist Prayer on the 5x7 days by 200 fans of Anita Mui
I could not attend the ceremony, as I am not a member of the fans club,
though I wanted to go. Anyone, since no one who attended the ceremony
wanted to share the happening there, I would give you some general
information about such ceremony.
I had such ceremony for my mother too when she passed away. The monks
have to say different prayers for the deceased person during the
ceremony, mainly help them to leave this world peacefully and for them
to go to their next life quickly.
An alter is set too, fruits and food are prepared for the deceased. Lots
of money and other things are prepared and would be burned after the
ceremony.
The ceremony is about the same for every 7th day. But for the last one
that is 7 x 7=49 days, sometimes might not held on the exact day, we
usually have to burn the picture of the deceased (that is the one we
brought home from the funeral home), and the clothes we wore during the
funeral.

Any old articles on Anita ?
Woodstock,
Is there a possibility for your websites to upload old articles from
magazines or newspapers as far back as 1981? Actually, I'm also looking
forward for the CD on the first TVB singing contest where Anita was one
of the contestant, and do you mind to tell me is there such a stock in
the market?
Thanking you in advance.

Re: Any old articles on Anita ?

We can upload those old articles of Mui, if you provide us information.
But you can find those old stuff in other websites of other fans, so we
see no sense to do it in our websites now. However, in future, if I have
cleared up with all my backlog in transalation. I might consider to do
it, but promise nothing for the moment.
The song for the contest "Season of the wind" is not included
in any CD so far. But in recent TV memorial program, we had that song.
So I would suggest you to record that on video tape, and then you
convert it to CD format yourself.....hahaha....hope that is not too hard
a task for you.

I'll try TVBI and hopefully, they are loanable from the TVB authorised

I listened to Denise Ho's interview on her encounter with Anita Mui and

she even registered herself in Anita Mui's club. Then I saw her name and

Write consolation note to
Anita Mui's mother
I foresee a need to send a consolation letter (not a supportive letter
for her or her son's actions) to Anita's Mui mother to take care of
herself, not to think too much, just be happy and to ignore all those
bad reports about her. I've surfed everywhere that many and many of
Anita's supporters and fans including me have criticized Anita's mum and
I don't think she can handle it anymore.
Anita loves her mother no matter what. I think now, is the right time, I
should at least do something good/beneficial for Anita. I do not wish to
be one of Anita's fans/supporters to be pushing her mother of the age of
82 to collapse one day and regret for the rest of my life and I couldn't
face Anita if this tragic happens.
Anyone of you neighbor of her mum or who knows where she live, could you
kindly forward my fax/email note to her mum? If there is a one-single
note with signatures from fans would be better. If somebody could
initiate this small campaign, would be better.
Please kindly help..................

Re: Buddhist Compassion
Reading through the pages especially on the 1st page about all her
friends who were at her sickbed chanting and praying "Amitabha",
I could visualize the pain of those who were there like "your heart
being stabbed by a knife", that not one single human could stand
the agony of wanting to cry and call Anita's name but have to suppress.
The pain is really too much as I'd experienced that for my late father.
My father's last breath with a loud throat sound when a bowl and a
chopstick was knocked on top of his head (Chinese tradition for taking
path to another world...?...) which is quite similar to the 800years
Buddha Status placed softly on top of Anita's head. This is not easy
even for the toughest guy in this world.

First of all, would like to thank you for your effort and hardwork in
perfectly translating into English. You're undeniably the great
translator. However, I've a very small correction to make for the word
" Ningborche" as "Rinpoches" because I read this
spelling from one of the Tibet book about death long time ago. Please
forgive me If I'm wrong.

As I am not a Buddhist myself, I do have difficulty in lots of
terminology. Should you find any of my translation inappropriate, please
feel free to correct me.
ML: Thanks. Rinpoche is the correct word. I have been using Ningborche
because I translated directly from the Cantonese [寧波車], while
Rinpoche is translated to Chinese as [仁波切]. Will try to use
Rinpoche in future, as it is the correct English word. BTW, hope the
Chinese characters here won't come out funny.......

Although you are not a Buddhist, you have no qualm in posting Buddhist

religion barrier. Also, you've shown respect to other religions. We

want to let you know that i am also in sg. be very careful when you go
get the "free" vcd from modern beauty salon. they are very
"gan" (dishonest). have a bad experience with them recently.
they will do all they can to "persuade" you to sign up 20
sessions of facial costing $1,200+GST, and they will withhold the vcd
till you sign on the dotted line. am very angry that i was stupid enough
to fall for it. i am going to CASE (www.case.org) to see if i can get
back my money. so would like to warn any potential "customers"
to think carefully if you really want to sign up, and be prepared for
the strongarm marketing tactics.

Glad that you'd bought the book. The one-time free facial spa is a a
compliment from Modern Beauty salon. I redeemed the VCD from AMK outlet
and the promoter did not hard sell their products for facial spa and
instead, she gave me the condolence book to place messages for Anita Mui
and I didn't do the facial spa which she said I can keep the coupon and
give to my female friend to do the next time. This, I was touched by
their acts that Anita Mui is respected.
Re: where can i get the book "The Heart of the Modern

that facial is for gal only.... i ask her can i dont do the facial ..
but she say had to do in order to get the vcd.. sigh.. i had to go for
the facial spa !!
Re: where can i get the book "The Heart of the Modern

First of all, good that you got the book. It's a very good book indeed.
In HKG, we just tear the side coupon and present at the counter in order
to redeem the vcd. And the facial vch is another part of the coupon.
They shouldn't force you to do the facial. You can tell the girl that
you will come next time, but this time you only collect the VCD.

Hi! Can anybody help me?
Hi! I am a Singapore fan of Anita. I just would like to know if the book
"The Heart of a Modern Woman" has an English version. One of
my colleagues did check it out for me at one of the bookshops here in
Singapore but she said there is only the Chinese version. Which means
that if there is no English version then I will just have to buy the
Chinese version even though I don't know how to read Chinese just to get
to see the pictures and redeem the VCD which is better than nothing.
It's just that I would love to be able to read what is written in the
book. Does any of you guys have any idea?
Just a bit to introduce myself. I am a Malay and I can speak a bit of
Mandarin but cannot read or write in Mandarin. I love watching Anita's
movies and listening to her songs since I started working with Chinese
colleagues. They were the ones who introduced me to Anita and I loved
her especially her comedy shows. She's just so cute!! I even bought her
song albums (both Mandarin and Cantonese versions) even though I don't
understand Cantonese. I enjoy her singing and the melody. I feel that I
could feel the song just by listening to the way she sing it. If it's a
happy song, you feel delighted and if it's a sad song, you can feel the
pain in the song. She is one singer that can make you feel whatever she
sings. Even my baby niece would stop crying and fall asleep when I
played her sentimental songs i.e. Nui Ren Hua (don't know if I got that
right, excuse me if I don't).
One thing I would like to tell all of you is that I really enjoy coming
to this site and I think you people are a bunch of friendly souls. I
have been here for quite a while already but i just got the guts to post
in the forum today. Since I am a Malay, I do not think that I would be
welcome but what the hack! I want you all to know that I am Anita's fan
too and i was very depressed over her demise. I have been watching her
movies and listening to her songs everyday just so that I don't feel the
pain of loss.
Hey...Just wanna say it's comforting to know that Anita's music touched
people from different walks of life, regardless of race or religon which
is what good music & a voice like hers should deserves. Although I'm
a chinese but you know how seldom the language is being used in
Singapore (well at least with my circle of friends) so it's just a
tedious for me to comprehend some her lyrics & all...so hang in
there & enjoy what her voice brings along with the melodies.
Back to your question: Unfortunately don't think that the Modern Beauty
book comes in English translation but you probably would just wanna get
it as a commemorative item instead.
Happy to know you are Anita's fan. It's very hard to find non-Chinese
fans, you know? For your information, there is no English version for
the charity book.If you do not mind, I can try to translate them into
Malay, page by page but not all in a single day, through our email
exchanges. I'm a Malay-educated myself, so I don't find it a problem. To
translate into English is a bit tough. You have to be patient because
I've projects to do, hopefully, you will not blame me for being so
slow........

expertise. But don't worry, since you are doing me a favour, take as
long as you want, at least I get to know a little bit from the book.
Thank you so much.
After reading what you just reply, I think I wanted to retreat. Just
joking. It's my pleasure. Will try as hard as I can to perfectly
translate them as closely as possible. If we have Malay version, then
more Malay friends who love Anita can also read, right? Ha..ha...
Salam Sejahtera.

Re: Hi! Can anybody help me?
You really got a sense of humour eh!
Anyway, I am glad that you are willing to do this favour. If it is not
too much work, I think you are right. If translated into Malay, then it
would really help Malay fans. However, really don't think that I should
trouble you that much. I think English is quite a common language and I
am sure everybody who use the internet would understand English.
Appreciate your kind thoughts. Will let you know once I catch hold of
the book. Xie-xie ni.
Sorry that I may have unknowingly placing an inappropriate word in my
earlier reply. But please kindly do not feel that way. I'm a Malaysian,
a Singapore PR and I know Singapore Malays are very good in English,
better than me. As for me, I'm half-half in English, Malay and Chinese.
I'm no expert in any of the languages, so to speak.
Wait until you buy the book, you let me know. Enjoy your day.

( Msia or sg fans- kindly
enlighten me as to where to find VCD of anita's fantasy gig concert?
just wanna know where to find the vcd of fantasy gig, have been trying
to find it but to no avail... have been searching in midvalley n KLCC.
i do visit sg frequently and i dun mind getting it when i visit sg if i
can't find it in malaysia.
Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of
anita's fantasy gig concert?
EK,
In KL, I'm not sure if you had tried to search around Bukit Bintang, Sg
Wang Plaza or Lot 10? I think Popular Book Store (which also sells
albums and VCDs/DVDs) might have.
In Singapore, you could easily find it anywhere in Singapore. If you're
a tourist who frequents Orchard, then you can find her VCD at the
Popular Book Store, 2nd storey at the Orchard MRT or MPH opposite the
Somerset MRT, or if you frequents City area, you may alight at City Hall
MRT and take free shutter bus to Suntec City where you can purchase the
VCD at Carrefour or Tower Records, or you may want to walk through the
MRT walkway to Suntec City and Marina Square and stop by the MPH. There
is a "Sembawang Record shop" at fourth floor of Raffles City
Shopping Centre, by taking escalator up after you alight at City Hall.
Please do not purchase VCDs/DVDs of Anita's movies if you really want
the hear original voice of the casts in Cantonese because most of the
movies are dubbed in Mandarin.
Hope you could find what you want.

Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of

Ml,
Thanz for the advice given. i have searched in Midvalley and also in
KLCC but not in the golden triangle yet. the other day i was in melaka
for a trip, i dropped by at mahkota parade but can't find any at all (
even worse then in Kl, they only hv concert in 1990 nia- which i have
bought oredi.asked the sales person n told them i was looking for anita
fantasy's gig concert. they asked me who?i almost got pissed off. lol
anyway i m looking fwd to get a vcd of fantasy gig for collection
purposes. the performance was superb and powerful. it was broadcast here
over astro.upon seeing it, i told myself i m not going to miss it.
to be honest with u, i really regret that i hv put away her pictures
which i collected when i was a kid. i m now searching hi n low for it.
my pa used to buy her cassettes. but over the time, the sound is no
longer good. so i hv to start from square again....
Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of
anita's fantasy gig concert?
EK, I think Tower Record at KL Plaza should be a trustable source to
find what you want because I could tell you that sometimes when you buy
from a VCD store (not Popular or other authorised recording stores), the
chances of you getting a pirated copy is pretty high.
Same as you, me too that now only I started to collect her CD albums and
vcds/dvds. I've not have her Fantasy Gig yet but will buy soon. In
Singapore, only TVBJ could broadcast her stage performance in the
original version (Cantonese) but in public Chinese stations, no way her
Cantonese songs and neither her speeches in Cantonese could be publicly
broadcasted. It's a pity......
In my mild recollection of my childhood in a small village, I used to
pursue my sisters and brothers to search for her cassette albums and
almost everyday, I could hear her songs along with other artists like
Alan Tam, Leslie Cheung, Roman Tam etc, broadcasted from radio, from
neighbors' cassette player/recorders and video cassette
player/recorders, from shoplots, from everywhere. Anita Mui was so
popular in the 80s that I can tell you that if one (young and old;
Cantonese, Hokkien, TeoChew, Hakka or Hainan) does not know Anita, she
is definitely deaf. There is a trend and taste change in mid 1990s where
Mandarin songs gradually replacing Cantonese songs to be at the top
chart, and Mandarin albums of higher demand than Cantonese albums. Why I
could deduce is most probably because of the influence of Mandarin as
the medium of Chinese Language in younger generation. I like Anita's
songs because of her husky, sexy and powerful voice and tone. Also most
of her songs are sentimental with memorable and touching rhythms. (To
tell you the truth, nowadays' melodies are more R&B like that almost
all the rhythms are the same and too boring and you know what, no way to
buy any of the artists' albums and I turned to buy New-Age musics/songs
instead.)
I had Anita's cassettes with me until I came to Singapore. As you know,
cassette player has been completely replaced by CD player and my
cassette player was no more functioning and when I moved to another
flat, I threw Anita and other artists' cassettes away and now, same as
you, I regret for doing so. Now with Anita's departure, I've completely
changed my mindset towards junk and old items that even if these items
no longer functioning/looking good, they might be a priceless treasure
as you may not be able to find them again, once you have lost or
discarded them.

actually Singapore did not release "fantasy gig 2002"concert
VCD or DVD,those u seen it at CD retail store r not Original.to prevent
u got this pirated copy,pls remember to check VCD or DVD back cover,u
will see the company name "Music Bation Pte Ltd".everybody
should aware that "fantasy gig concert"2002 was release under
'Music Nation" instead of "Music Bation".those piracy
totally copy everything from Original even the company logo but just
changed some text.they r really money sucker.Also,Singapore fans pls
note that censorship board sticker label doesn't mean is Origianl,is
only prove that the content does not hv violence or sexual.
Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of

then that's very sad and pathetic. it's quite costly to travel all the
way to HK to geta vcd of fantasy gig. why can't the local shops sell the
original ones by not confusing us? so sian... should hv ask my cousin to
buy it when she was in HK...

Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of

Su:
Thanks for reminding us that I'm astonished to hear that the VCDs/DVDs
sold in Singapore are not original copies. But one thing I was puzzled
as to why "Music Nation" never sued "Music Bation"
despite the copies being widely promoted in these reputable retail
stores? Or could it be "Music Bation" is the Singapore sole
distributor/importer for "Music Nation". If not' then it's is
a serious crime.... But one thing that may support your claim is that
the price of the VCD is quite cheap (around S$10) if I'm mistaken.
EK:
Your price of RM110 for a VCD is so exorbitant. Is that the price for an
original copy of a normal VCD?

From what I know,EMI Singapore record company was the local distributor
for "Fantasy Gig 2002" CD,but somehow dunno why they didn't
bring in the VCD and DVD version,guess its must be the copy right fees
was too high.Also,the pirated DVD version does not include the duet of
"Jue Dai Fang Hua"but HK version hv it.
Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of

Anyone there know of shops in Singapore which sells Anita's 1985, 1987
& 1990 Concerts VCD or LD. I've have those in tape which got mouldy
already. I really love those concert, or anyone would be so kind to copy
for me?? I'm willing to pay for those.

ones that are easy to find are anita's 2002 fantasy gig, and anita's
1995 concert, anita's 1990 concert was out but it's a bit hard to find -
i believe some people are selling this one at e-bay, i don't believe
that her 1986 concert was released before but i think i heard someone on
this forum has it on video tape, her 1987 was released a long time ago
but it's very rare which i have no luck finding except for the cds, her
1991-2, and 1999 were never released! and i believe that her 2003
classic moment is releasing next month or so.

hey people,
so sorry for 'mia' for so long. was so busy after the cny of 5 days'
break..
anyway thanz for all the feedback given 'ere. i think i roughly know
where n how to get it.
thanks especially to Ml and also e-spy (BB)
i am still working very bzly. will only have time to search for it this
weekend.
ML,
The VCD at the price of RM110 is read as Anita's Classic Concert. It was
an imported and the only piece sold at that time when i w as in Speedy
Mines. the cover was same as the poster used for Anita's final concert.
i wasn't sure if that was the last concert. coz i dun read chinese and
that it was pricey,i asked the sales assistant if it was the last
concert. but she told me no!
is the latest concert under EMI label? any idea?
anyway, i just can't wait to get the GIG VCD.
well i hv bought 90 & 95. In Msia, it's quite easy to get two of
these concert. so it's quite strange for me to read some comments posted
here that it's hard to find it...
u got urs yet ML? i think i will be coming to SG dis april. where u
stay? hope to yum cha wif u if it's possible!
Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of
anita's fantasy gig concert?
sorry i live in the u.s. (pennsylvania) so her older concerts are more
difficult to find. you can't find her 1990 concert here at all... but we
have plenty of fantasy gig concert though .... that's strange

Re: ( Msia or sg fans- kindly enlighten me as to where to find VCD of

Hi EK: Talking about Speedy Mines, I've some doubt on its copyrights of
most of the CDs/VCDs because I happened to buy some movie videos long
long time ago and was not happy with its poor quality as it sounded and
seemed like a duplicate from the original copy. I may be wrong......
Hope that you'll find the quality good. I'm longing to buy original
copies of Anita's movies in Cantonese Version in Malaysia but couldn't
bring in to Singapore (need to go through Singapore Board of
Censorship). Will buy them and copy into my notebook before returning to
Singapore.

To All Singapore Fans
I just found out those "Fantasy Gig Concert 2002" VCD and DVD
that selling in some CD retail store now r not Original.As we all aware
that "Fantasy Gig Concert 2002" original was released under
"Music Nation Pte Ltd",the piracy totally copy everything from
Original ,even the company logo but they just changed some text,so u
will see the cover behind printed "Music Bation Pte Ltd",this
ppl really money sucker.ALso,pls note that VCD and DVD with censorship
board label doesn't mean is Original,the label its only prove that the
product content do not hv violence and sexual.So pls remember to check
carefully before buying.
oh god, i have been searching high and low n yet to no avail, then where
we can find the original fantasy gig concert? i can't find it at all...
nowadays we ought to b very careful in view that these people are
getting very tricky. i saw one n nearly paying RM110 (about SGD55) for a
VCD i thought and perceived to be anita's last concert. the cover they
used for the vcd is very misleading for us to think indeed it's the last
concert of hers...
