Buddha Bless Want to Lessen the Sadness…

Our (at least mine) favorite dancehall reggae boys Buddha Bless are back (and bald) with another brand new single! When Gaotong mentioned earlier that they were working on a new song and that it would be a slower number, I expected another mellow reggae hit from them like their past “Talay” and “Jon Jon.”

But when “งดเศร้าเข้าพรรษา / Ngot Sao Kao Pun Sah (Lessen the Sadness When Lent Begins)” finally was released, I was pleasantly surprised to find it was an easy-listen bossa style! …Electric bossa! Bossa with a Buddha Bless touch! Awesomeee~

And then, shortly after, Gaotong suddenly popped up completely shaved! I was amused, but for some reason, it never occurred to me to equate his sudden change in hair styles with this song. …Until the music video came out! Then it hit me! And I felt so stupid I never realized it before hahaha~ In fact, it wasn’t only Gaotong, but all three of them! How many other groups would ACTUALLY go through shaving themselves completely bald for a song? Buddha Bless are so genuine!! Now that’s dedication!!

So yes, nice chill song, awesome MV with Buddha Bless’s usual craziness and humor, what more can you ask for?

ตักบาตรทำบุญแต่เช้าเพื่อให้ใจได้หยุดพัก
I’m making offerings and merits early in the morning so my heart can be at ease
เบื่อหน่ายกับเรื่องความรักที่ไม่เคยจะโชคดี
I’m tired of love that never seems to work out
ก็อยากทำบุญกรวดน้ำให้กับคนไม่หวังดี
I want to make an offering for those that don’t mean well
พอแล้วพอทีกับใจที่มันง่ายดาย
Enough is enough, enough with people who have bad intentions

แต่ก่อนเคยรักทุ่มเทหมดทั้งหัวใจ ไม่เคยเผื่อใจเอาไว้เจ็บ..ช้ำ
Before when I loved, I would give my whole heart, never leaving any room to be… hurt
แต่ว่าผลของการกระทำก็ย้อนกลับมา…ทำร้ายใจ
But the results of that action is always… painful

**อยากจะงดเศร้าเพื่อเข้าพรรษา กราบเรียนหลวงตาช่วยบอกผมที
I want to lessen the sadness before entering into Lent… I respectfully ask the Monk to tell me…
อยากจะลืมเรื่องราวต้องทำไงดี บวชสักพรรษาก็จะมากไป
I want to forget everything, what do I do? To become a Monk for Lent might be too much
หยุดคิดทบทวนตัวเองอีกที ความรักถ้ามีต้องเตรียมหัวใจ
Stop and think about yourself, If you’re in love you have to ready your heart
เผื่อว่าไปรักใครไอ้คำว่าเสียใจ ยังไงก็ต้องเจอ
In case you go and love someone, no matter what there will have to be regret

Rap
ความรักไม่เข้าใครออกใคร แต่เข้าพรรษาปีนี้มันเป็นเราที่ช้ำใจ
Love doesn’t just happen to anyone, but going into Lent this year it is I who is hurt
ความรักผ่านมา แต่ว่าความทุกข์ไม่ผ่านไป
Love has gone, but the tormant hasn’t passed
ก็คนมันยังรักตัดบัวยังเหลือใย
A person is still in love, you cut the lotus but the roots still remain
หันหน้าเข้าวัดเผื่ออะไรมันจะดี อ่านหนังสือธรรมะ ฟังพระในซีดี
Turn towards the temple for what reasons? Read the book of prayers, listen to monks on cds
สุราเมระยะก็รู้ว่ามันไม่ดี ออกพรรษาเมื่อไหร่คงลืมเธอได้สักที
I know that alcohol is bad, when Lent is over I have to be able to forget you

ก่อนเคยรักทุ่มเทหมดทั้งหัวใจ ไม่เคยเผื่อใจเอาไว้เจ็บ… ช้ำ
I use to give my whole heart when I loved, never leaving any room to be … hurt
แต่ว่าผลของการกระทำก็ย้อนกลับมา… ทำร้ายใจ
But the results of that action is always… painful

**

Though it’s a little weird to see them straying a bit from their respective colors, Buddha Bless are still 100% Buddha Bless :D I love how Gui like had to be forced into the chair haha, I wonder if he misses his hair the most. :D Ohhh my silly boys~ At least they’ll be a little cooler in the summer? :D

And somebody tell me I’m not going crazy, that Gaotong looks so much like Cuban reggaeton singer Pitbull in that top picture? ahaha

    i love love love the song! and the MV is so fitting with the song.

    i love how buddha bless aways has a good message to send out. just from look and sound you wouldn’t think they would but once you listen to the lyrics its like wow they are really teaching something good. major props for that

    and yeaaa i’m still quite disturbed by the fact that they aren’t wearing their normal colors (except for my wonderfully sexy voice gohm half the time) but yea major dedication on their part to shave their heads but i do think gooey was probably crying the most and that the scene where they were forcing him probably wasn’t too much acting haha

    when i saw that they were getting their heads shaved, i was shocked, literally hand over mouth.

    BUT then i started getting teary eyed. then i wondered, why? i wasn’t sad for them, but i was IMPRESSED and SO PROUD of the boys.

    i mean, as i was watching the guy hold Gooey down to the chair, i was soooo touched by the boys’ effort to make a great mv.

    come on, how many artists would shave their hair for a mv??? huh? huh? huh!? britney spears doesn’t count. (i still love you brit).

    but, i just advanced to another level of respect for these boys. i mean, they ALL shaved their hair = team work. (i dare someone to ask the B.O.Y boys to do that!) anyways. i think that was a big step. maybe for boys it’s nothing, but being a girl, it would take a whole lot of coercion for me to go that far. i think.

    i like the mv. the colors are really bright. i especially like the chick with Gooey, her wig is hot! i was like :O heck nah! it’s coo!!!!

    the song took me a little while to get use to, but eventually it flowed well into my ears. i was expecting a ‘fast paced’, ‘blow you out of this world’ song, but this one will do too.

    like the fact states, no BB song is bad. er’song they do is a joy to listen to. and their mvs always speak louder too.

    yah! they don’t make shit*y mvs!!!!! take that all you other videos!! *runs away before the tomatoes come*

    THANKS!!!!!!
