Came across this video from Ah Niu - “Speak My Language” when I was looking at some Namewee’s previous MV.

I first listened to this song when I was in Form 1. That was also the first original album I bought, though a cassette. I did not really understand the full meaning of the lyrics at that time(perhaps I was too small to understand the implied meaning of the lyrics and the politics atmosphere surrounding). This song was also banned in Malaysia’s Radio Stations.

When I listen to this song just now, I deeply felt the lyrics in the song particularly after what had happend to namewee. Here are some quotes from the lyrics…

Why do I have to speak other language
While I’m talking to my people
Why do I have to use another language
While I’m singing my song

But I don’t care, I’m just looking for my ID
Oh, don’t hot please, 我只是不想失去我自己(I just don’t wanna lose my origin)

Really wonder what will happen should Metro at time time report Ah Niu as “biadab”. Perhaps what had happened to Namewee will happen to Ah Niu first??

I just got this information from my friend, it’s pretty useful.

Go to Gootube. Paste the url of the video you want to download and click RETRIEVE NOW.

After the file is finish downloaded, just rename(any name you like) it and put a .flv behind the filename(eg. namewee.flv) and you are done!!

You will need Media Player Classic to play the file. It’s the best player I’ve ever use, it’s a lightweight program(won’t take up a lot of memory) and basically it plays every type of media files plus it’s an open source program! Download Media Player Classic here.
