LyYenKhang Posted December 3, 2011 at 03:38 AM Report Posted December 3, 2011 at 03:38 AM 爱相随/周华健 The 90's Mandarin and Cantonese love songs are the best. Does anyone know the Chinese name of the song - "You're the one"? I think it may be sung by Leon Lai, but I'm not sure. It's in Cantonese. That is the title, but I can't find it. Quote
jkhsu Posted December 3, 2011 at 09:56 AM Report Posted December 3, 2011 at 09:56 AM Here's a retro late 90's song from Joey Yung (容祖兒) called 逃避你 (in Cantonese) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nFOtL--J3E I really like the sound of this concert version vs. the music video. Quote
skylee Posted December 3, 2011 at 10:44 AM Report Posted December 3, 2011 at 10:44 AM I sang this song in shower today (I was thinking about the first line 雪霽天晴朗), and found that I couldn't remember all the words. I learnt this song too long ago, really -> 踏雪尋梅 I think it should be 好花採得瓶供養. Quote
skylee Posted December 7, 2011 at 10:32 PM Report Posted December 7, 2011 at 10:32 PM I've just heard this song on the radio. It is very old fashioned but in fact the lyrics are very good. The song is very descriptive and it almost tells a whole story. And I suppose I learnt a lot of beautiful words from this song when I was a kid. 盧國沾 wrote the lyrics. PS - note the rhyme. 江山美人 寧拋玉璽碎棟樑 多情如我情絲百丈長 兩心傾仰 心曲可和唱 何苦空留冷衾帳 紅燭耀映兩情長 鴛盟同訂人生多歡暢 醉意盡百觴 軟香滿懷 郎情妾意長又長 夜月初上 儷影雙雙 鴛鴦結合情蕩漾 落戶閉窗垂羅帳 共把素願償 寧拋玉璽碎棟樑 風流皇帝難得最情長 愛護社稷 愛嬌意仲長 何妨棄江山 同醉情場 同醉情場 Quote
New Members FlorenceZhu Posted December 8, 2011 at 11:59 AM New Members Report Posted December 8, 2011 at 11:59 AM Does anybody know 李泉? A really tallented singer , who has wrote many famous songs for other singers. Here's a recent song of him, 《弹弹琴 》, which can either mean 谈谈情 or 弹弹琴. Pay attention to the lyrics, so many idioms of number in it. BTW, his live show is much better than record. http://www.yinyuetai.com/video/300556 Quote
YuehanHao Posted December 14, 2011 at 05:05 AM Report Posted December 14, 2011 at 05:05 AM This may sound weird (or alternately for all I know this could be a very popular song), but I heard a clip from a catchy song during a news report on school bus accidents this evening. I succeeded in finding the song and listened to it a number of times admiringly. The song, 校车在哪里,seems quite odd to me in juxtaposing typically contradictory characteristics, e.g., tragic yet upbeat, playful yet socially concerned, etc. I was impressed; if interested, check it out: http://fc.5sing.com/4845650.html 嘀哩哩嘀哩嘀哩哩 约翰好 Quote
skylee Posted December 18, 2011 at 01:11 PM Report Posted December 18, 2011 at 01:11 PM I've been watching the TVB drama series 天與地, and I think its title song is quite good. It was written and sung by Beyond's 黃貫中. youtube -> http://www.youtube.c...h?v=Wcby8vtf6TU listen -> http://www.1ting.com...yer_533776.html Quote
kangrepublic Posted January 6, 2012 at 03:27 PM Report Posted January 6, 2012 at 03:27 PM 陪你一起看草原 - 降央卓玛 Seems it is a cover of an old song but I prefer this version to the older one, maybe due to the better instrumentation. I think it is a song from Inner Mongolia or at least about it but I may be wrong. Quote
LyYenKhang Posted January 11, 2012 at 03:42 AM Report Posted January 11, 2012 at 03:42 AM The song I was looking for above is 每天愛你多一些 by 張學友. I also love 如果這是情 by Leon Lai. Both so classic. I just heard this song today. I think it is the most beautiful Chinese song I have ever heard. The lyrics are so wistful: 人生如夢 人生如夢 夢裡過眼繁華似錦繡 朝看彩雲暮送晚霞過 又沈醉月色中 人生如夢 夢裡也曾帶著多少愁 朝入塵世暮宿雪花中 看月夜正朦朧 多年以後 或許夢裡風水輪流走 富貴榮華一身重 卻是孤獨依舊 多年以後 或許夢裡也有桃花落 卻不慎將紅鸞動 讓春風來捉弄 人生的夢 總是一分歡喜一分愁 尋覓夢裡幻影已無蹤 只留下霧迷濛 幻影無蹤 只留下霧迷濛 Does anyone know when this song was written and if it is well-known? It certainly deserves to be! Quote
heifeng Posted January 17, 2012 at 04:14 AM Author Report Posted January 17, 2012 at 04:14 AM This song ended up back in my music mix again...and it doesn't seem to be up here yet so, wala: 2002年的第一场雪 ~刀郎 Quote
heifeng Posted March 3, 2012 at 09:28 PM Author Report Posted March 3, 2012 at 09:28 PM what?! has no one has listened to any music in 1+ months? Ok, well here are some songs from the popular TV series 北京爱情故事: 侃侃- 滴答 汪峰-再见青春 1 Quote
skylee Posted March 4, 2012 at 01:13 AM Report Posted March 4, 2012 at 01:13 AM I think 滴答 was posted on this website years ago. The thread is buried somewhere. PS - here -> http://www.chinese-forums.com/index.php?/topic/13194-%E4%BE%83%E4%BE%83-%E6%BB%B4%E7%AD%94/ Quote
heifeng Posted March 4, 2012 at 04:15 AM Author Report Posted March 4, 2012 at 04:15 AM Wow, good job remembering that post! Well, now I guess this song has some new found popularity then! Usually I search the forums to see if a song has been posted before, I guess I assumed it was more recent! Quote
heifeng Posted March 11, 2012 at 10:22 PM Author Report Posted March 11, 2012 at 10:22 PM So, while clicking around on youtube I came across this song which for me is one of those songs I hear everywhere (well, not everywhere, maybe just grocery stores & restaurants). I thought it must be popular, but it's not on this thread yet---so here you go. It's an easy listening tune, which may or may not transport you back into the grocery aisle next to the durian, or to the seafood section poking at the crabs with tongs, etc...Anyway, one more classic for the KTV readiness book. 张雨生 - 大海 Quote

heifeng Posted March 17, 2012 at 04:32 AM Author Report Posted March 17, 2012 at 04:32 AM This thread is suffering from a deficiency in 张宇 songs ( The last time I posted one of his songs was in post #29 in 2008: 月亮惹的祸) Today, let's go with these 一言难尽 ( -in concert & 土豆 MV )雨一直下 ( -in concert & 土豆 MV) Quote
jkhsu Posted March 22, 2012 at 07:59 PM Report Posted March 22, 2012 at 07:59 PM I've been recently listening to the song 经过 from the TV series 夫妻那些事. Since I just created a 中文挑战 using that song, I thought I'd introduce it here as well. I've attached the mp3 in this link to the 挑战. Enjoy! Quote
skylee Posted March 28, 2012 at 02:53 PM Report Posted March 28, 2012 at 02:53 PM I heard an interview on Albert Au (區瑞強) on the radio today. And the song 水霞 came up in my head, 縈繞不散. Forgive me for reposting, as I have posted it at #116 on page six of this thread and also on the thread Imagine you are a drop of water (where you can find the lyrics). But the lyrics are so beautiful I just can't help it. Listen Quote
skylee Posted April 1, 2012 at 02:05 AM Report Posted April 1, 2012 at 02:05 AM The song "Easy" performed by Rubberband has just reached the top of the local charts. I think it is a very well-made song. I particularly like the line "住進極貴飯店不包上網", very true, very amusing. Youku Lyrics Easy 雪櫃裏面啤酒已飲光 落到大街夜粥舖收了檔 空運的絕版碟寄失麼 心水電影落畫先知錯過 小小的閃失已暴跳如雷 呼吸都繃緊 越覺深深不忿 這個城市每人 對偏差敏感 抱怨微細缺陷 一臉灰暗 那侍應弄濕新買西裝 住進極貴飯店不包上網 趕下班上司轟炸囉唆 一街在咳病菌急速散播 小小的不爽已暴跳如雷 呼吸都繃緊 越覺深深不忿 這個城市每人 已不懂降溫 抱怨微細缺陷 一臉灰暗 Come on take it easy 放開等閒事 Come on take it easy 請你 一試 發現有十塊安放口袋 進了電梯下一位超了載 坐地鐵列車駛進剛好 行錯路竟共她街中碰到 幸福或者逐點的給送到 Quote
jkhsu Posted April 2, 2012 at 08:53 PM Report Posted April 2, 2012 at 08:53 PM I've got two songs from the movie 春嬌與志明 (Love in the Buff).
