Thai song Ho Gai Siao - "Dtaa daeng daeng"

Easy listening song by Palapol & Punch (one of my favourite Thai artistes).

The guy sings with a rich and baritone-ly voice. A nice change from the soft, almost ah gua-liked speech made by most thai guys. Punch is definitely a Sweet Young Thing whom I was quite crazy over for a period of time. I'm a proud owner of all her albums :) Just my luck to have missed her concert last year. Check out sweet girl from Chulalongkorn university(i imagined).

Dtaa daeng daeng means swollen or red eyes. Song tells of this girl teasing his brother who seems to be crying , whom probably just had a heartbreaking episode. Cute depiction of sibling rivalry. Kids annoying the hell out of their elder siblings. Try bringing some of these memories back while listening to the song (with translation of course!). Enjoy!
