From time to time, I always watch the Love at First Sight scene of Romeo and Juliet on Youtube. Each of their dialogues is a piece of literature. I wish I could speak like that. 😛 Meanwhile, the background music is so sweet. The scene then ends with this beautiful poem: (It is when they find out they are the son and daughter of two enemy families.)
Then Juliet, seeing Romeo leaving, whispered quietly to herself on the balcony:
My only love sprung from my only hate!
Too early seen unknown, and known too late!
Prodigious birth of love it is to me,
That I must love a loathed enemy.
This is the link for the movie:

Here is the song ‘Kissing you’:
Lyrics:
Pride can stand a thousand trials,
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you,
My soul cries.
Heaving heart is full of pain,
Oh, oh, the aching.
‘Cause I’m kissing you, oh.
I’m kissing you, oh.
Touch me deep, pure and true,
Gift to me forever
‘Cause I’m kissing you, oh.
I’m kissing you, oh.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
‘Cause I’m kissing you.
I’m kissing you, oh.

Comment by Ryan Ng Wing Him ,1D 27 October 18, 2009 @ 3:50 pmI just see a video on youtube.
I think it is very meaningful&touching.
it’s the commercail of pantene shampoo in Thai.
I don’t you have or have not seen it before…
Thank you Ryan! It’s a great one. I love classical music a lot. I was trying to learn how to play Canon on my keyboard last weekend. What a coincidence!
By the way, I’ve never watched this commercial before. Yes, it’s a meaningful piece, but I think it’s a little bit too much for just selling a brand of shampoo though….. 😛 In this commercial, I can see the shadow of Korean TV drama. 😛
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SHARING!!! 😀
