Lazy Afternoon with a Hot Coffee

A Thousand Miles Away

The new Jay Chou music video has what I like in a MV-- a storyline.

Story: A guy with lower social status is in love with a woman who's adored by many. The woman likes him also, but had to leave to advance her performing career. She didn't want to, but the guy packed her bags for her and sent her off, knowing that she'll make it big.

Three years later, she comes back. The guy is still there, still holding on to the old scarf she gave him before departing. She recognises the guy and the scarf; the guy knows that now, she's famous, and him, still a nobody.

He slipped into a dark corner, wishing her all the best.

I love MVs-- cos you see things that can never happen in real-life.
