The only really "cool" music, hip original Thai music, of the 1980s was Carabao and Caravan. Although the roots of the Phleng Phuea Chiwit (songs of life) genre date back to the protests of the mid 1970s and the band Caravan, Aed Carabao and band popularized the genre into the mainstream combining western rock and western folk motifs with Thai folk motifs.

Here's a great song from the nineties, a great band as well. The Beautiful South.

 

 

The Beautiful South was an English pop/rock group. What has this to do with Thai music?

Sorry, I must have missed the bit where it says Thai music.

Hi Trembly,

I looked through the lyrics on the Youtube page.

If I understood it correctly, she was in his class from ป.1-ป.4 (5-9 years old) before she moved away with her Mum to Maha Sarakham province when her dad died .

What was the thing hinted at?


There's a line that goes "have you forgotten that time when you play-talked me | that were going to marry me | all those years ago in school" . . . it's very oblique but there are lots of very small subtle word plays peppered all over the song that could hint at something more than just remembering the face of her former primary school teacher. For example, in the very first line she uses the word เจอะ instead of เจอ which means that she was surprised, even a little shocked, when she saw his face and knew that it was him.
