Chinese Song of the Day

[heifeng]

well, maybe time for some squeaky clean songs....which means time for more Jay.....yeah!

ok, this song and video are both super adorable, i like the ping pong dancers around 2:50. Plus if you can get throught the slurred section towards the beginning it makes for a good ktv song

this one is really really sweet too:

[renzhe]

赤裸裸, by 郑钧, lyrics. This was one of only two listenable songs on the computers in an Internet cafe I used to frequent during a Harbin winter.

I checked out the lyrics to see what the fuss is all about and found out that I know this song.

Goes to show that I can find smut in any language

[HashiriKata]

Chinese-forums.com T-shirt for anyone who can tell me what the other one was.

My best guess: http://www.9ku.com/play/4/5/MZUYMTG.htm

[Hofmann]

How about something older?

Here's a song called 月滿西樓, based on the Song dynasty poem 一剪梅 by 李清照

紅藕香殘玉簟秋

輕解羅裳

獨上蘭舟

雲中誰寄錦書來

雁字回時

月滿西樓

花自飄零水自流

一種相思

兩處閒愁

此情無計可消除

才下眉頭

卻上心頭

A whole bunch of people sing it, but I like 童麗. Listen.

ok, time for cuteness overkill:help:

Today you have your choice of 蘇慧倫 aka Tarcy Su singing

Lemon Tree -

or

鴨子

[Meng Lelan]

And now time for patriotism overkill, but worth a listen - singing 我的祖国 in this video is Han Hong, an ethnic Tibetan with absolutely angelic voice:

And now for Han Hong singing the praises of her native Tibet:

是否 by 蘇芮. This song was a hit in Taiwan during the early 80's. Luo Dayou is the songwriter.

Lyrics:

是否　這次我將真的離開妳　是否　這次我將不再哭

是否　這次我將一去不回頭　走向那條漫漫永無止境的路

是否　這次我已真的離開妳　是否　淚水已乾不再流

是否　應驗了我曾說的那句話　情到深處人　孤獨

多少次的寂寞掙扎在心頭　只為挽回　我將遠去的腳步

多少次我忍住胸口的淚水　只是為了告訴我自己我不在乎

是否　這次我已真的離開妳　是否　淚水已乾不再流

是否　應驗了我曾說的那句話　情到深處人　孤獨

多少次的寂寞掙扎在心頭　只為挽回　我將遠去的腳步

多少次我忍住胸口的淚水　只是為了告訴我自己我不在乎

是否　這次我已真的離開妳　是否　淚水已乾不再流

是否　應驗了我曾說的那句話　情到深處人　孤獨

time for a lil' Coco Lee;

真情人

[bhchao]

I like these three songs by 潘越雲:

謝謝你曾經愛過我

我是不是你最疼愛的人

Good singer.

[Guest realmayo]

Nice one from 郑钧 there...

... and can't go wrong with some Coco Lee.

How about a sweet little love song:

http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/wwDU_fiuUI0/

何勇 - 姑娘漂亮

姑娘姑娘 你漂亮漂亮 警察警察 你拿着手枪

你说要汽车你说要洋房

我不能偷也不能抢

我只有一张吱吱嘎嘎的床

我骑着自行车带你去看夕阳

我的舌头就是那美味佳肴任你品尝

我有一个新的故事要对你讲

孙悟空扔掉了金箍棒远渡重洋

沙和尚驾着船要把鱼打个精光

猪八戒回到了高老庄身边是按摩女郎

唐三藏咬着那方便面来到了大街上给人家看个吉祥

姑娘姑娘 你漂亮漂亮 警察警察 你拿着手枪

你说这个故事不是香肠

我知道这个夕阳也披不到你的身上

我不能偷也不能抢 我不能偷也不能抢

姑娘姑娘 你漂亮漂亮 警察警察 你拿着手枪

姑娘姑娘 姑娘姑娘

你钻进了汽车 你住进了洋房

你抱着娃娃 我还把你想

交个女朋友 还是养条狗

[heifeng]

And now for Leehom Wang, an interesting modern take of Chinese opera:

Ok, timer for a song/commercial by the always adorable

古天乐

[Hofmann]

His Mandarin is a bit nonstandard, no?
