Englishman in New York

[youtube=http://hk.youtube.com/watch?v=doYNBHE8Yes]

與長居新加坡的印尼同鄉Vanya閒聊,談到我在香港查實朋友不多,我就用這首Sting的經典來形容自己的處境:Englishman in New York。

Legal alien可以形容我這類思想異類的傢伙,但以下歌詞,或許更能形容今天香港的現況:

「Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle’s brighter than the sun」
