Dig this groovy little surf ditty from Charlie and His Go-Go Boys 1965 album Twist Shake A Go Go: Let's A Go Go!
In the Sixties, Mainland China was busy with the Cultural Revolution, which branded Rock & Roll as a sign of Western decadence. Nevertheless, the "Beat Wave" hit big in two Chinese territories that remained open to British influence, Hong Kong and Singapore.
The Beatles concert in Hong Kong in 1964 marked the birth of the golden age of the Hong Kong pop scene. As a result a great number of bands appeared from 1964 to 1969.

Just for grins, I took the lyrics to Bruce Springsteen's Born To Run and, using BableFish, translated the song from English to French, French to Dutch and then Dutch back to English.
It actually sounds almost as equally poetic as the Boss' original lyrics in a very cool and old world kind of way.
Here's the original lyircs:
Born To Run In English
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway american dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on highway 9,
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
Its a death trap, its a suicide rap
We gotta get out while were young
`cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
And strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
Well run till we drop, baby well never go back
Will you walk with me out on the wire
`cause baby Im just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta find out how it feels
I want to know if love is wild, girl I want to know if love is real
Beyond the palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss
The highways jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybodys out on the run tonight but theres no place left to hide
Together wendy well live with the sadness
Ill love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I dont know when were gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go and well walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us baby we were born to run
And here's Born To Run
(translated from English to French, French to Dutch and then Dutch back to English...)
or
How To Make The Boss Sound Like Shakespeare

Here's the preview for the new Tom Petty documentary 'Runnin' Down A Dream" directed by cinema legend Peter Bogdanovich (The Last Picture Show). It'll be showing during the closing weekend of the New York Film Festival and it looks pretty badass if you ask me.
There's also a nice little article about it over here: Big Screen Embraces Hot Muse: Rock Stars.
The 3 DVD 1 CD set will be available only at Best Buy beginning October 16th a week from today!
The waiting is the hardest part...
