How I knew Joanna Wang - Times of Your Life

One day I was browsing youtube, and I came across this girl, not particularly pretty, singing in her bedroom with a guitar. She had a very intriging voice, and she was taiwanese! That girl was Joanna Wang. Then I bought her first CDs for a friend's bday. Then I waited eagerly for her second album. I realized that she is not really the Lisa Ono singer as we know in the first album, she is something else. Something that takes some used to. Wonderful still, I saw part of the MTV for "Times of Your Life" on TV, and it worked! Although I don't remember the original version by Paul Anka, I definitely like Joanna's version. That unyielding, uncomprimising voice, very much like a Leo.

Good morning, yesterday
You wake up and time has slipped away
And suddenly it's hard to find
The memories you left behind
Remember, do you remember

The laughter and the tears
The shadows of misty yesteryears
The good times and the bad you've seen
And all the others in between
Remember, do you remember
The times of your life (do you remember)

Reach back for the joy and the sorrow
Put them away in your mind
The mem'ries are time that you borrow
To spend when you get to tomorrow

Here comes the saddest part (comes the saddest part)
The seasons are passing one by one
So gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life

Gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life
Of your life
Of your life

Do you remember, baby
Do you remember the times of your life
Do you remember, baby
Do you remember the times of your life
