By Lily Suckow Ziemer<\/h1>\n

It was over this past winter break when I watched my first ever Wong Kar-Wai movie: Chungking Express<\/em>. My mom and I, on our mission to watch more critically acclaimed films, had decided on the movie amongst those on HBO\u2019s Turner Classic Movies collection. I was immediately obsessed with the movie – the gorgeous visuals, the engaging plot, and, most importantly, the music. I looked up the soundtrack on Spotify as soon as the credits rolled, and have been listening to it on repeat ever since. <\/p>\n

Since then, I\u2019ve watched two more of Wong Kar-Wai\u2019s films: In the Mood for Love<\/em> and Fallen Angels<\/em>. Each film continued to have songs with spot on lyrics, and a repetition that never got boring. In honor of the 22nd anniversary of In the Mood for Love<\/em>\u2019s release on March 9th, here is a playlist of some of the best songs from Wong Kar-Wai\u2019s films. (Spoiler alert for mentions of scenes and the plot of each movie.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalifornia Dreamin\u2019\u201d by The Mamas & The Papas<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019ve ever seen Chungking Express<\/em> you\u2019ll remember the second female lead, Faye\u2019s, affinity for \u201cCalifornia Dreamin\u2019\u201d by The Mamas & The Papas. She\u2019s first introduced blasting the song while working at a snack bar. It\u2019s so loud that her love interest, Cop 663, has to shout over it to make his order. \u201cYou like loud music?\u201d he asks, to which she replies, \u201cYes, the louder the better. Then I don\u2019t have to think.\u201d The lyrics describe a depressing winter day, lamenting, \u201cI\u2019d be safe and warm\u2026 \/ If I was in L.A.\u201d The song is played over and over again, until Faye eventually leaves Hong Kong, and her mundane customer service job, for California. Faye dramatically escapes the mundane with this anthem, something many of us dream of.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201c\u5922\u4e2d\u4eba\u201d by Faye Wong<\/h2>\n

Faye Wong\u2019s Cantonese cover of The Cranberries\u2019 \u201cDreams\u201d is heard a number of times throughout Chungking Express<\/em>. It\u2019s suitable for the dream pop soundtrack of the movie and lends a hopeful tone to Faye\u2019s extreme pining after Cop 663. Even with the couples\u2019 limited interactions, one can hear her voice in the lyrics, \u201cI was already in love with you.\u201d The song is just as good as the original, perfectly featuring Wong\u2019s soaring vocals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cWhat A Diff\u2019rence A Day Made\u201d by Dinah Washington<\/h2>\n

Chungking Express<\/em> follows two stories of people falling in love rapidly, so when \u201cWhat A Diff\u2019rence A Day Made\u201d by Dinah Washington comes on halfway through the movie, it is extremely fitting. Each of the two sections of the movie begin with cop He Qiwu narrating, \u201c57 hours later I fell in love with this woman,\u201d and in the second half, when transitioning to Faye\u2019s story, \u201csix hours later, she fell in love with another man.\u201d The song perfectly describes the quick shift in mood love can cause, in lyrics like, \u201cWhat a difference a day made \/ And the difference is you.\u201d Everyone\u2019s experienced hallway crushes they romanticize in their head, small moments of annoyance that turn into an imagined fight. What makes Chungking Express<\/em> so engaging is the characters\u2019 willingness to dramatically express their feelings, even when they go to unimaginable extremes in pursuit of love.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cForget Him (\u5fd8\u8bb0\u4ed6)\u201d by Shirley Kwan<\/h2>\n

Fallen Angels<\/em> is a story of heartbreak. It follows two couples that never were. A hitman and his work partner break off their partnership to keep their romantic feelings from coming to fruition. The dream pop song \u201cForget Him\u201d by Shirley Kwan perfectly encapsulates the painful feeling of cutting off a relationship prematurely. To a slow beat, Kwan showcases her vocal abilities, singing, \u201cForgetting him \/ Means forgetting everything \/ That means losing my sense of direction \/ I lost myself.\u201d As the pair begin to go through life without each other, this song mirrors the on screen emotions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cOnly You\u201d by The Flying Pickets<\/h2>\n

At the end of Fallen Angels<\/em>, the main characters of the movie\u2019s two stories, the hitman\u2019 partner and Ho Chi-mo, find themselves in the same restaurant. They each describe a sudden warmth after the cold, long winter they\u2019d endured. Compared to the overall dreary tone of the movie, \u201cOnly You\u201d sticks out, sweet and wistful, as it begins to play. The pair ride Ho Chi-mo\u2019s motorcycle through a long tunnel to The Flying Pickets singing, \u201cAll I needed was the love you gave \/ All I needed for another day \/ And all I ever knew \/ Only you.\u201d Finally, they exit the tunnel and the perpetual night in which the movie takes place, the camera panning up to reveal daylight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cKarmacoma\u201d by Massive Attack<\/h2>\n

Okay, so \u201cKarmacoma\u201d by Massive Attack isn\u2019t actually<\/em> in Fallen Angels<\/em>, but it was supposed to be. Wong Kar-Wai found that the song was too expensive, so instead he had composer Frankie Chan create \u201cBecause I\u2019m Cool.\u201d It isn\u2019t, however, available on most streaming services. But as the song samples directly from \u201cKarmacoma,\u201d and was initially intended to accompany the movie, I had to add it to this list. The trip hop song exudes the same troding and confident beat that accompanies the main character on the assassination that opens the movie.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cYumeji\u2019s Theme\u201d by Shigeru Umebayashi<\/h2>\n

\u201cYumeji\u2019s Theme\u201d is the first song prominently featured in In the Mood for Love<\/em>, and repeats several times throughout the movie. At moments, the whole movie stops for the wailing violin and time slows down as the main characters cross paths physically and emotionally. Even if you don\u2019t think of yourself as someone who likes orchestral music, \u201cYumeji\u2019s Theme\u201d stands on its own despite its lack of lyrics. The feelings expressed in the notes are strong enough to entrance you and bring you to another world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cBlooming Flowers and the Full Moon (Hua Hao Yue Yuan)\u201d by Zhou Xuan<\/h2>\n

Her husband gone for the majority of the movie, one of the few interactions we see him have with the elegant Mrs. Chan is when he dedicates the song \u201cBlooming Flowers and the Full Moon\u201d over the radio to her for her birthday. We see Mrs. Chan listening alone with her back to the wall, only for the camera to move through the wall to see Mr. Chow in the same position. As we hear nothing but the Chinese folk song crackling over the radio, the couple romantically lean against each other, separated only by a wall. Zhou Xuan\u2019s voice expresses the longing felt by Mrs. Chan and Mr. Chow but not yet acted upon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cQuiz\u00e1s, Quiz\u00e1s, Quiz\u00e1s\u201d by Nat King Cole<\/h2>\n

Towards the end of In the Mood for Love<\/em>, Mr. Chow boldly asks Mrs. Chan to go to Singapore with him, saying \u201cIf there\u2019s an extra ticket\u2026 would you go with me?\u201d There\u2019s no answer as he packs his things to \u201cQuiz\u00e1s, Quiz\u00e1s, Quiz\u00e1s,\u201d which translates to, \u201cPerhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps.\u201d Nat King Cole sings of a woman who only ever answers his questions with \u201cperhaps.\u201d As a result, he says, \u201cYou are losing your time \/ Thinking, thinking \/ For what you want the most.\u201d The song plays as Mrs. Chan arrives at his office too late, with the music cutting off and her sitting in his room in silence and alone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Wong Kar-Wai\u2019s movies transport you to a different world. It\u2019s not hard to wish your life was full of aesthetic settings, expressive characters, and blaring music that perfectly fits every situation. But as soon as the credits roll, you return to reality. Yet, Wong Kar-Wai still leaves us with something: music. Songs like \u201cCalifornia Dreamin,\u2019\u201d \u201c\u5922\u4e2d\u4eba,\u201d and \u201cKarmacoma\u201d have accompanied me through the last few months of my life. We all wish our lives were movies sometimes, but when we can\u2019t find the time to watch them, we can escape into their songs. Wong Kar-Wai makes this easy by putting together the perfect soundtrack. So, go and watch these movies, and listen to the songs<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
