Lyrics & Translation

Learning a language can be an exciting adventure, and what better way to start than with a 'Megahit'? Anson Lo's catchy Cantopop song is not just a feast for the ears but also a great tool for learners. The repetitive and catchy onomatopoeia like 'Uh-oh' and 'Boom Boom Boom' are easy to pick up, and the mix of Cantonese and simple English phrases provides a gentle entry point into the language. This song is special because its message is universal: be bold and embrace the unknown. Let the rhythm of 'Megahit' guide you as you take your first steps into the world of Cantonese!

[English]

You strum the guitar wildly

I bash the drums apart

Which main hit makes you excited

You push over a thousand glasses

I rush to a window

Our sounds attract each other

You tap here, tap there, lights flashing when it hits

I tap this, I tap that, no organ can handle the shock

Woo

Beatbox with the guzheng, who fits best

Want to know the destiny of the symphony

Everyone come and bump, kiss each other

Some love songs

Relaxed beats are better than intense ones

Should be cautious and reveal

How to write a love song, no sheet music

Woo

Explore from chords or random collisions

Boom boom boom

Hitting your Bang Bang Bang

Ping pong bang, let’s both dream together

Boom boom boom

Add your Bang Bang Bang again

Ping pong bang, this is the epicenter

No need to fear scratches between us

Dialogue in the world, optimized

Even if sparks fly one day

Leave romantic memories, ring out loud

You tap here, tap there, from scrap metal to pure gold

I tap this, I tap that, mix of hard and soft

Woo

Leather, glass, rubber—who fits best

Want to know the fate of love

Leaving the comfort zone, kiss anywhere

Some icy peaks

Better to avoid than collide

Hold tight to youth, test the temperature

Who should fall in love, no chart

Woo

Explore from softness or intensity

Boom boom boom

Hitting your Bang Bang Bang

Ping pong bang, let’s both dream together

Boom boom boom

Add your Bang Bang Bang again

Ping pong bang, this is the epicenter

An empty room, no sound inside

Only left with sign language and imagination

Fireworks lighting the firecrackers

Wishing to brighten this enclosed space

Aye, it's been a while

Baby, you’re mine, I’ll blow your mind

Cause everything I do, I do it with passion

Woo

I’m ready for this, just come and hit it, say

Better to avoid than collide

Hold tight to youth, test the temperature

Who should fall in love, no chart

Woo

Explore from softness or intensity

Boom boom boom

Hitting your Bang Bang Bang

Ping pong bang, let’s both dream together

Boom boom boom

Add your Bang Bang Bang again

Ping pong bang, this is the epicenter

Ha

[Chinese]

你打爆枝結他

我敲碎一套鼓

哪一隻主打 令你興奮

你推跌千隻杯

我衝向一扇窗

以聲音 互相吸引

你這裡碰碰 那𥚃碰碰 中了會閃燈

我這個碰碰 那個碰碰 沒器官會崩

Woo

Beatbox 跟古箏 和誰才最襯

想知交響的命運

誰也去碰碰和吻吻

有些戀曲

輕鬆比激烈更好

應該保守與𥘵露

情歌怎麼寫 沒有譜

Woo

從和弦 或亂撞 𥚃探討

Boom Boom Boom

碰到你的 Bang Bang Bang

乒鈴嘭唥 一齊妄想

Boom Boom Boom

再加你的 Bang Bang Bang

乒鈴嘭唥 這是震央

不必怕將 彼此刮花

世界對話𥚃優化

即使碰出 一天碎花

留下浪漫事 鏗鏘嗎

你這𥚃碰碰 那𥚃碰碰 廢鉄到足金

我這個碰碰 那個碰碰 硬碰加軟撼

Woo

真皮 玻璃 膠 和誰才最襯

想知相戀的命運

離開comfort zone 隨處吻

有些冰山

躲開比 相撞更好

捉緊青春 試溫度

誰應該相戀 沒有譜

Woo

從柔和 或 劇烈 裡探討

Boom Boom Boom

碰到你的 Bang Bang Bang

乒鈴嘭唥 一齊妄想

Boom Boom Boom

再加你的 Bang Bang Bang

乒鈴嘭唥 這是震央

空屋𥚃沒有聲

剩低只得手語 與及想像

煙花焫著爆仗

願將這種幽閉格局點亮

Aye it's been a while

Baby you’re mine I’ll blow your mind

Cause' everything I do, I do it with a Passion

Woo

I'm ready for this so just come and hit it say

躲開比 相撞更好

捉緊青春 試溫度

誰應該相戀 沒有譜

Woo

從柔和 或 劇烈 裡探討

Boom Boom Boom

碰到你的 Bang Bang Bang

乒鈴嘭唥 一齊妄想

Boom Boom Boom

再加你的 Bang Bang Bang

乒鈴嘭唥 這是震央

Ha
