Lyric
Lam Phloen No Appease No Love
Chabaphrai Namwai
Verse 1:
You
I've never forgotten that sunset time
The man across the paddy field
Tall and stylish, you are
But you're a helpless man (Repeat)
Why are your words so full of falsehoods
Words that sound as if there is smoke without fire
My love sinks in my chest and disappears
Just when I saw you and your partner looking happy
I'm going to give my heart to another love
It's too late to go back to the way it was, give me back the love I sent you
I didn't mean to share my feelings with others (Repeat)
I don't follow people home like you do
We were supposed to be serious, but I didn't realize how full of lies you were
I'm not with you anymore
Don't worry, I can sleep alone
Who's being dishonest? (Repeat)
If you don't soothe me, I don't love you
If you don't love me, I don't care about you
I'm not going to walk with anyone
You're just slowing me down
Let's end the relationship we've had
Stop pestering me with sweet nothings (Repeat)
I will only tell you the truth
I'm not going out with you anymore (Repeat)
Hook 1:
Your love is not serious (Repeat)
I won't be upset if you hit on me with the most beautiful words in the world
I don't blame you, a man of white leadtree flowers (*1) (Repeat)
I was moved by your words
Verse 2:
In order to go out with you, I have to read up to move three or four, or I'll be in trouble (Repeat)
I don't know if you're joking or not
Even the bad guys are no match for you
Even the bad guys are no match for you, as Mr. Tongmee Malai (*2) warned me
Even a high-voltage current can't defeat you
As I have little merit, this is where I'll end up with you
I'm not a match for you with your beauty and courage
I'll leave my future fate to the heavens
Listen to this song
I'll make it clear whether it's black or white
I don't want to say anything big
I don't want to make a big deal out of it, but your luck is good right now
Hook 2
Let's end this love (Repeat)
It doesn't matter if you're lucky or unlucky, you need to end this relationship
Even though you never said goodbye
You scoffed at me
I'm the one who doesn't care (Repeat)
Verse 3:
It's nice to be long-lived and wealthy (Repeat)
I won't bother anyone if I die
I'm sorry, you're human scum (Repeat)
Don't pry into who I like
Just because you're rich doesn't mean you can't dress up and be flattering
Don't think you can taste me
I don't care if you're not here (Repeat)
I can't Ding Dong (*3). You'll make my life a living hell
I'll start a rumor that I'm pregnant with you
It doesn't matter that my belly's swollen
When you open your eyes, all you see are excuses (Repeat)
Because you're not trying to show anyone how to determine if a woman you've dated is pregnant or infertile
It's so frustrating
Listening to your dirty talk
I'm sure you'll be convicted one day
With your arrogance, you invite your own corruption
Hook 3:
Sing the song of Teng Leng Teng (Repeat)
Let it reverberate in the fields and high in the sky
I don't want to try my luck with another woman
I'm not going on a date to the Inn (*4)
Real gold is a whole different beast than fake
It's you, kicking and stomping in your drunken stupor
It's like when you're drunk and you kick and step and you realize you've broken four cases of glasses
I'm not going to argue with you Nothing good will come of it
How dare you cheat on a woman with this wicked man?
How dare you cheat on a woman with such an evil man?
* Footnotes:
1: In the language of flowers, it means 'sincere love,' but here it is used in an ironic way
2: Refers to the legendary lam phloen king, Tongmee Malai
3: A cryptic and obscure word for sexual intercourse that was often used in Thailand at that time
4: 'Inn' is a facility where travelers can stay and eat in Thailand, where there are many Chinese-owned businesses, it is also called 'lonetian' in the Chinese way

EM Records again shines the spotlight on legendary Thai producer Surin Phaksiri in this second edition of his classic productions from the 1960s-80s. The first edition, released in 2019, focused on his innovative productions in the luk thung style. This 2022 release features his stellar, glowing molam gems from the 60s-80s, drawn mainly from his golden era in the late 70s and early 80s. Surin Phaksiri is a highly esteemed figure in Thai music, rooted deeply in his native region of Isan in northeast Thailand, a producer with a deep respect for the traditional artistry of his culture, yet always moving forward, looking outward, listening ahead. The molam style of Thai music showcases the voice; indeed, the genre's name means "expert singer", and Thailand is blessed with an abundance of experts, singers with amazing control, grace, vitality and finesse. This collection of 22 songs features 15 singers, ranging from venerated legends to unjustly unheralded masters of the art. These songs were recorded and released after the era of the 7-inch single; with the advent of the cassette boom in Thai music, most producers adopted a quantity-over-quality conveyer belt production style, churning out soundalike material to fill the expanded length of cassette tape. Phaksiri resisted these tides and continued to work with a single-song mindset, tailoring each production's instrumentation and arrangement to precisely fit each singer and song. This care and integrity can be clearly heard in this sweetly groovy collection. These gems, originally released on 7-inch vinyl, are all first-time official reissues, a project years in the making. Compiled by Soi48, who also provide liner notes.
