这是一首简单的小情歌

I still remember when I first heard 小情歌 on radio, before I knew who sang it or even who sodagreen was. 93.3 was using the opening line of the song as part of their trailer for some long-forgotten radio drama. It was only one line, but it was enough to make me catch my breath and shiver. And every time after that when they played the drama trailer I would listen intently for just that one line. It was that beautiful.

And even till today, sodagreen has never lost that tenderness which defines them. Although I'm no longer as entranced by 小情歌 - which I think is actually superceded by 无与伦比的美丽 in terms of tenderness - I still adore their songs. At their best they are evocative, and even at their worst (if at all!) they are charming.

I love that I have this affection for sodagreen that has lasted so many years (as compared to crazy fangirling over random kpop idols which fizzle out after a month or so lol). I love that I'm in love (and not infatuated) with them. At least, this is my best guess at what love must feel like. This mellow, tender, warm feeling, which I hope would never go away.


and this a love song which started with that first line. (forgive me for being unbearably mushy.)
