Telephone Zombies12. 6.39am: Running for the FerryAnother Day on the Ferry by Nick Florent“Someone is playing with his mobile game, clicking and buzzing gonna drive me insane,” so starts the first verse of the opening song. It’s “just another day on the ferry” for a commuter from Cheung Chau, a small, somewhat eccentric island some ways away from the busy streets of Hong Kong. There aren’t any cars on the island – but a lot of bicycles, which are the curse of Cheung Chau according to multi-instrumentalist bluesman and resident Nick Florent. Many of the songs focus on distinctive details of Hong Kong life. The tailor’s shops that proliferate around Nathan Road – a tourist hub – are victims of Nick’s acerbic wit along with Chungking Mansions, the infamous building where you can buy anything: “Copy watch, buy a suit; massagee, or prostitute” runs the chorus. Nick’s keen eye for the oddities of expat life also homes in on overzealous photographers, telephone zombies, ‘walking straight at me,’ and the ubiquitous TVs – found in most restaurants, by lifts, in waiting rooms, and yes, even on the Cheung Chau ferries!If you’ve experienced these things, you’ll enjoy the songs. If you haven’t, you’ll acquire some keen insights into Hong Kong life by listening to them.
