Eternal Summer (盛夏光年) by Ah Shin (Filipino / Tagalog subs by Masto)

This song was played in the closing credits of the Taiwanese film Eternal Summer released in 2006. The song has a haunting melody and lyrics which are very appropriate for the movie. Thanks to summerxsummer0 for letting me use his/her video. I did change the ending a bit. For those who havent seen the movie yet, let this video serve as a trailer. You wont be disappointed if you see the movie.

i love this movie. Watch too THE LOVE OF SIAM and BANGKOK LOVE STORY. These are great movies

[rnstomas]

Check out my other videos, I have three related to The Love of Siam. Love that movie too. =)

[loshijosbravo]

almost like Love of Siam

[rnstomas]

Yes and no. Yes, because it talks about two guys growing up together. The similarity ends there though. Even the subject treatment is different as this film has more adult feel to it. Both films are excellent, in my opinion.

@wdebo5487 Thanks :)

@TheMariahBum Ashin is the singer and he is the lead singer of the Taiwanese band "Mayday" ^^

@KonTheory77

DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD: I don't want to believe that. >_<

But but, he did it with Jonathon & HE was the one who initiated it. So it's hard to believe what you're saying. :(

@KonTheory77 Thanks. XD And, I think that Jonathan and Shane don't end up together. Which, to me, makes the film the much more beautiful because of the sheer realism behind it. Shane was never gay to begin with, so I don't see him in being in any gay relationship at all.

But, yes, only the writer knows for sure. ^^

[KonTheory77]

@KoreaxxLove That was beautiful. ;_; They way you explained it. It still doesn't answer all of our questions, which is did he accept or deny Jonathon? But the only one who knows the answer is the writer. ):

[KoreaxxLove]

@KonTheory77 Water can act as a very powerful symbol of truth, and I'm sure the makers of Eternal Summer knew this. When Jonathan and Shane both make their confessions, they are standing in the water. I think that is heavily symbolic. Jonathan leaves the water after making his confession, but Shane stays until he is done talking. Nothing in that time is mentioned that suggests they will get together (especially not with Carrie in between them at the end).

[KoreaxxLove]

@KonTheory77 Hmm....I'm pretty sure that Shane was just going to stay friends. Shane is not gay. He accepts Jonathan, and he tells him that he won't lose him as a friend, but he is still with Carrie. I'm pretty sure of that. The beginning and ending of the movie both depict Carrie sitting between Jonathan and Shane, and I think that's a pretty important factor.

Shane loves Jonathan in that Jonathan was the first person to accept him and be his friend, but I don't think it goes any deeper.
