It is an open secret that 80s guitar riffs and backdrop synthesizer scales are key criteria for awesomeness here in China. We like the lyrics to today's song as well, because they manage to be expressive without falling into stereotype. Composed by Zhou Chuanxiong, this song was originally about a man's attempt to leave a destructive relationship. In Kelly Chen's version, we see that it works the other way too:
Although this is the more popular of two major versions, take a listen to the original recording if you have the time. Although Zhou Chuanxiong grew up in Taiwan, his parents were from Hubei province. You can still hear a marked difference in their accents after all this time.

Quick lyrics question:If it's "Love until it hurts" it should be 爱得痛了, right? That's what PopupChinese lyrics say, and that's what I would have thought (as it's a verb being modified by a complement), but the KTV lyrics say 爱_的_痛了. What's the difference? I realize it's the same sound - are the KTV typesetters just being lazy with a simpler character? :) I feel like I see this 的／得 mix-up quite often...

@toneandcolor - I'd guess the music video is just wrong, although people are pretty cavalier about the 的/得 distinction sometimes. Curious to know the answer on that front myself though.
This is a really good pick, by the way. The opening lines in the Kelly Chen version sound strangely accented to my ears, although I caught the guy singing xing1 instead of xin1, so they're both from down south.

you can find both versions of the lyrics online. we believe it should be 得 and annotated it accordingly. I'd imagine the 的 is an issue with whomever did the subtitling....

Hi Guys,
It should be 得, since 得 is the compliment of the verb 爱 here. 爱得痛了 means "love until it hurts" or "love and then get hurt", 痛 is the adjective. A lot of lyrics online have mistakes, especially in those videos which made by indivdual.
