I remember what a joke that movie was to me. I took karate classes in the early 70's and karate matches are nothing like that. In every class they always stressed that running away was always the first option. If you can't do that, self defense is what karate is for. It can never be used to attack, like you see in the movies. And it's over very fast in real life, like in any fight you take your best shot right away. Make the other guy regret he ever met you. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Haunting is the best way to describe it. Some of the best lyrics ever. T'was the witch of November come stealing.. C'mon.. Lots of great comments. If you take a risk, you may lose.

Here's something for you. For context, this song is about Yoshiko Yamaguchi a Chinese born Japanese actress during World War 2. She hid her Japanese heritage under the name Li Xiang Lan. The Chinese audiences adored her, not knowing the truth. After the war, her real identity was exposed. She was scorned by the people who adored her, and deported to Japan. She never saw China again. It's a very popular song in China. "Trumpsplain (def.) explaining absolute nonsense said by TRUMP. |

The Japanese and the Chinese hate each other with a passion. Live in Hawaii for 6 months, you'll see it all the time. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
