    Apparently, they did: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icSbs8uPK9M

    I actually heard it was b/c the original song was so famous, they just decided to reuse it.

    The lyrics of the song are also very appropriate for the novel IMHO.

    Chu Liu Xiang/Chor La Heung. . .

    What is it about "handsome and womanizing" protagonists?

    They even used the song in the Taiwan version of Xiao Lee Fei Dao that came out 9 years ago.

    WHAT CRAP! I just watched that 1st episode on youtube.

    They really butchered the story. Pretty boy in snappy clothes twirling his ornate knife around! BAH!!! The essense of Little Li is totally absent.

    I like that version a lot, but it's also the only version I've ever watched :P

    I read the translation and the feel I get from the series isn't entirely different. The first episode/few episodes is only different I think because he hasn't lost his lover yet so he's still happy and gay, while I think he does a pretty good job of showing the sadness for much of the first part of the series. The second part is garbage of course.

    My favorite adaption is the film Legend of the Flying Swordsman (1999), which is widely -hated- by wuxia lovers and wuxia novices alike for its confusing storyline. However, I thought it was a nice change to the genre with its dream-like sequences. Recommended for art film buffs only.

    Is this the movie with Gigi Lai in it? I think Dave Wong was the main?
