Sam Hui The Private Eyes EN & CANTONESE theme

[augdunha]

Chased by rabid dogs. We might pick up the rabies

[Roodosutaa]

Love the Canto original but this is so cringe-worthy like all of Sam's English efforts. He should've just stuck to Cantonese (his Mandarin ain't good either) - 70s HK singers had a obsession of releasing all-English albums, if it's just a cover of a Western song it's semi passable if they sang it well enough, but the local attempts at English lyrics just sound atrocious. Made worse if you sing with a FOB accent (as Sam did)

[quickmantan]

english not worded very well in this song..

The Cantonese lyrics in this one aren't the same as the one that I usually hear.. I hadn't heard this one before. Now you need to make a video of all 3 versions. LOL!

[ChineseinCanada]

[simazhongda]

no offence to the singer .. do u have a buck teeth when u sing this?

[mgamegatun]

when this is compared 2 the canto version...the lyrics don't match

[theholygurl]

@mgamegatun of course it doesn't.. it has to follow the beats n music

[mohsoldier2]

I think The Private Eyes and Security Unlimited are my favorites from the Hui Brothers. THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!

[funnyjoke23]

[chefkong]

this is not like the original version for the canto version of 半斤八兩

[Karueno]

Does Sam Hui sings the English version of this?

[Karueno]

I love both the English and Cantonese version of this song! It's so good although the gunshots and the 'go away' are a big hit in the English version. :)
