    This is what wiki said. And wiki is always right. HAHAHAHAHAHA

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Di-Dar

    I think that it's quite true though. Cause the whole album is just her singing these random nonsense lyrics, and for Di-Dar that's what she sings for most of the song. No clue if it has a personal meaning for Faye Wong, but hey, it's catchy and cool.
