My Chinese Songs Cover Version

       Since I'm posting about one of my hobbies and passion in life, let me also share with you some of my Chinese song recordings. Pardon, that this is not recorded professionally in a studio unlike my other two local songs, which is also included in my YouTube video page. 

      I've been singing Cantonese songs since my college days, mostly songs by Vivian Chow. She is my most favorite Hong Kong artist. Other recordings of mine included songs by the late Ms. Teresa Teng, which I know is a must that I learn her song because she is one of the well-respected and admired artist in the Chinese scene and all around the globe. Also, I did covers of contemporary singers like Penny Dai and Rainie Yang, Charlene and JJ Lin's duet, and also a cover version of Wang Lee Hom's song.

     Anyway, here's a sample of my recorded songs. Thank you for checking out my blog and thanks also for checking out my YouTube videos.. 謝謝! xiexie!

The first and the second song is Cantonese and the third and fourth song is in Mandarin.




Song of the Moment: 爱一点 (Ai Yi Dian) Love A Little OST "You Are My Lucky Star"

       I just finished watching. "You Are My Lucky Star" movie. The film is about a comics artist or cartoonist Sophie, and about a secret agent named David/William. It stars, Chinese superstar Zhang Ziyi and Mr. Musicman, Wang Lee Hom. I watched the Chinese version since I can't find an English subbed, anyway the movie is funny so I enjoyed watching it while I'm on a 'sick leave' from work.

      This movie is a prequel to "Sophie's Revenge", starring Zhang Ziyi again. I recommend this film also. I think I both like the film, and each is a favorite of mine, in the same level.

      I like the OST of the movie which is sung by the lead actor and actress. The meaning and melody is also good so it's a thumbs up for me.

     I really don't encourage you people to love a little, because when you love you should not be selfish. Just love away! I included the English translation of the song. Enjoy!



Love A Little

 The wind blew and moved the windows, as well as the leaves sounding the surrounding,
As people’s dreams are loitering, into a farther and farther place.
The moon in the sky exposed half of its legs,
Looking to the ground and seeing that there are those who aren’t able to sleep,


 The clouds cover the light, extending the night,
as the winds gently blew pass your hair.
The night shut both of its eyes to be silent without a word,
And I know that you are listening to my thoughts,


 I wanted to say that I will love you, a little bit more,
Always right next to your ear,
trusting that you love me too, though it may be little.
Yet, it is only you who never realized this.


 I wanted to say that I will love you, a little bit more,
always right next to your ear.
In this I also trust that I will love you forever without change,
and I know that you surely will end up realizing it.

The moon in the sky exposed half of its legs,
Looking to the ground and seeing that there are those who aren’t able to sleep,


The clouds covered the light extending the night (the night becomes extended)
The wind gently passes through your hair (your hair)
The night shut both its eyes and remained silent.


You know that I am listening to what you’re saying,
I want to say that I will love you, a little bit more,
Always right next to your ear,
While believing that you love me too, even if it is little;
It is probably because you never detected this. discovered/found/realized/detected.


 I wanted to say that I will love you, a little bit more,
always right next to your ear.
In this I also trust that I will love you forever without change,
and I know that you surely will end up realizing it.
