skylee Posted December 28, 2013 at 09:31 AM Report Posted December 28, 2013 at 09:31 AM I watched an artist play this song in a big shopping mall on Boxing Day. Although it was played on a piano and although it was only part of the song, it has stuck in my mind. But I have always liked it. It is very Chinese. 梁山伯與祝英台 Butterfly Lovers -> http://tv.cntv.cn/video/C27300/a696eeb66c69453e8a04f85177948634 Quote
roddy Posted January 3, 2014 at 10:58 AM Report Posted January 3, 2014 at 10:58 AM Song just came on which reminded me of the first few bars of by 陈琳. Took me right back to the streets of Harbin, 2001. Or 2002. Dunno. 1 Quote

Demonic_Duck Posted January 4, 2014 at 01:46 PM Report Posted January 4, 2014 at 01:46 PM Thank you all so much for sharing your favorite songs here! I only just recently decided that I'm "ready" to try to listen to some Chinese music and even though I understand less than half of the lyrics, I'm still having fun discovering new songs and learning by translating the lyrics This method worked for me years ago when I started learning Spanish, so hopefully it will work with Chinese as well The great thing about listening to music in a language you're learning is that, if it's good music in a style you enjoy, you're pretty much guaranteed to like it, no matter how much or little you understand. The same isn't true of books, films, TV, computer games etc., where not understanding enough of the language is very likely to ruin it. I've only just started to be able to enjoy films in Chinese (and even then nothing too specialised), and I still get little enjoyment out of reading most of the time, yet I've been able to enjoy 唐朝乐队 ever since I first heard them, despite the fact that their lyrics are very flowery and my Chinese was virtually nonexistent at that time. My recommendation for today: 你说，你说，你说 by 陈胤希. It's a cover version of Quizas, Quizas, Quizas which contains both the original Spanish and a Chinese version (though not a direct translation). Anyway, I can enjoy the Spanish bits despite not understanding a word http://music.baidu.com/search?key=%E4%BD%A0%E8%AF%B4+%E9%99%88%E8%83%A4%E5%B8%8C Quote
Ania Posted January 5, 2014 at 11:31 PM Report Posted January 5, 2014 at 11:31 PM The great thing about listening to music in a language you're learning is that, if it's good music in a style you enjoy, you're pretty much guaranteed to like it, no matter how much or little you understand. The same isn't true of books, films, TV, computer games etc., where not understanding enough of the language is very likely to ruin it. Exactly! Which is why it's such a great way to learn - you are listening to/watching something you genuinely enjoy and not something you go over just for the sake of learning. I estimate that with every new song I listen to more than 20 times I learn about 5 new words, which is really great!! As far as watching TV, I'm not there yet, but I hope that this year I will finally stary enjoying some movies/TV shows, even if I only understand a percentage of what is being said. Quote

skylee Posted April 7, 2014 at 01:58 PM Report Posted April 7, 2014 at 01:58 PM 沒結果的一些感情。 A very desperate title. And I like the beginning of the song, mainly because it starts with a coffee. And I really like the part before the chorus. This is an old song. The singer is called Christopher Wong 黃凱芹. 一杯黑咖啡 一片燈影 夜半三點的空酒瓶 通通不作聲 不作一聲 共我觀夜靜 一雙黑眼睛 一個身影 沒結果的一些感情 一生牽我心 使我只好 用這生認命 輕輕把你想 雖說不應 但我最愛這夢境 可否講我知 一切安好 活得高興 輕輕把你想 把你傾聽 自製數個百個夢境 管不得究竟 真正開心 或假高興 願你一生沒哀傷 願你終於找到自己方向 若偶不開心便找我 別要孤單的獨唱 將哀傷全交給我 完全不須要覺牽強 知不知 離開的你 完全不須說 對不起 youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hjyxctt57FE Mainland China - http://www.kuwo.cn/yinyue/90510 1 Quote

semantic nuance Posted May 26, 2014 at 01:57 AM Report Posted May 26, 2014 at 01:57 AM It's a song of reminiscence, at least it hits me like that. 徐佳瑩- 尋人啟事 Listen (mp3), Youtube Lyrics: 作詞：Hush作曲：黃建為演唱: 徐佳瑩 讓我看看 你的照片究竟為什麼 你消失不見多數時間 你在哪邊會不會疲倦 你思念著誰而世界的粗糙讓我去到你身邊 難一些而緣分的細膩又清楚地浮現 你的臉有些時候 我也疲倦停止了思念 卻不肯鬆懈就算世界 擋在我前面猖狂的說 別再奢侈浪費我多想找到你 輕捧你的臉我會張開我雙手 撫摸你的背請讓我擁有你 失去的時間更多更詳盡歌詞 在在你流淚之前 保管你的淚而世界的粗糙讓我去到你身邊 難一些而緣分的細膩又清楚地浮現 你的臉我多想找到你 輕捧你的臉我會張開我雙手 撫摸你的背請讓我擁有你 失去的時間在你流淚之前 保管你的淚有些時候 我也疲倦停止了思念 卻不肯鬆懈就算世界 擋在我前面猖狂的說 別再奢侈 浪費 Quote

ouyangjun Posted August 2, 2014 at 02:40 PM Report Posted August 2, 2014 at 02:40 PM Been listening to 赵雷 a lot lately. Have had his song 人家 stuck in my head all day. 赵雷 is a Chinese folk singer... love his stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f8NBh740cQ <-- youtube link. Lyrics below: 人家有车 人家有房 人家有大批的存款入到账人家是花 人家是公主 人家不能受委屈 和你一起吃苦人家的父母 是公司的干部 人家的一句话 是你几年的辛苦人家是什么 我又算什么 我只能做在街边沉默的妄想着而我只是一个穷小子 生活简单的就像是一块石子我只不过是一个唱歌的孩子 只要能填饱我的肚子我家的车是一辆老旧的28车 蹬起来有劲 坐上去潇洒我租来的房子 只有十四五平米大 用花布装饰的墙 特别温馨特别暖人家和我不是一路货色 我该放弃对美梦的拥有和执着酸甜苦辣独享其中的快活 只要家人健康平安的活着 Quote
skylee Posted February 8, 2015 at 03:40 PM Report Posted February 8, 2015 at 03:40 PM On a Saturday night a couple of weeks ago, after watching Birdman and feeling quite sick (as I had sat in the front row), I walked past Times Square in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. There a group was performing. They said they would be there every Saturday night until 11PM (ie start of noise control). I thought they were great. Many of the songs they sang were new to me. But the kids sitting on the ground around the group could sing along with them, so obviously I knew nothing about what was pop nowadays. One of these songs made a particular impression, as both the singers and the crowd seemed to enjoy it very much, and I also found it extremely nice. It is not a love song. The song is about dreams and courage and revolution. It is called 無盡, originally sung by Supper Moment. Youtube - https://youtube.com/watch?v=4PACFmxlHm8 Mainland China - http://m.letv.com/vplay_20511054.html PS - I especially like the first 倔強， as it sounds really 倔強. PPS - I have just realised why those kids (and also I) like(d) the song so much. Because that was/is the spirit of our pursuit for reform. Quote

Demonic_Duck Posted March 30, 2015 at 10:34 AM Report Posted March 30, 2015 at 10:34 AM 陈奕迅's 《红玫瑰》. Not particularly easy to sing (and it seems I've already forgotten half the words despite having learnt it before), but the words and tune are both really nice. One to re-learn. It also has a Cantonese counterpart, 《白玫瑰》, but my Cantonese is currently limited to about 3 (probably badly-pronounced) phrases, think it'll be a while before I'm up to singing songs in it!
