I used to complain about those Chinese singer who just took some English songs or Japanese song and put some lyrics and sell it like hot cake. Why don't they put some effort into it, compose their own and we fans can anticipate some improvement in our own music scene.But today, when Robert Cray pop into my mine, I can't help but thank those song converter who introduce these great musician to me...

Because of YouTube keep deleting video, I am correcting my post, as I am doing this I came across this you-tuber Wayne傻傻, he did a great video summarizing many songs by Chinese singer singing covers of many Japanese songs. This sadly proof that many famous Chinese singer lack composing creativity. Any way thanks to this video, it introduce yet another Japanese singer I might fall in love with, with some additional research I found the singer name in Chinese,  过亚弥乃 Ayano Tsuji.

Thank you Wayne傻傻

The first time I listen to this, I thought to myself, o, Paul Simon is loosing his grip. But than the music of this album stick to my brain, so I keep coming back to this song to try to look for something of a folksy Paul Simon, I think , maybe it was hidden some place in between the song. Than I became familiar with the tune and I starts to change my way of liking music, it starts to broaden my acceptance to more types of music and certainly deepen my enjoyment towards listening music. So this album became one of my favorites album. The end.

Now I put it into rock, but listen to it closely, you'll find some ska element in it...

One of the most energetic song that I fall in love with. When you can live forever, you know everything and your knowledge is your power but the memories will be such a burden think no body can bare, that is why even tho we are forever living and we don't remember al of it help so much. Fredie mercury, one of the singer who has the power and Queen a band with rich harmonies and rock spirit.

When you were young, you get influence easily, and I got influence by my sister a lot. She's 8 year senior than me, those days she just love this song, use to jot down lyric while listening to the cassette over and over and word for word, and in the process burnt this song into my soul. when I grow up I go search for songs of smokie, one particular album I fall in love was..

Well the album got this song...

Surprise ! surprise! to me that is, The Beatle also sung this song, said it was written by Carol King.

One of the reason I love smokie was their harmonies, so rich..

The song that bring back memories, actually not memories but memories of the feeling I had when I fall in love with this song years ago. Those lead guitar towards the end of the song, just mesmerizing with an addictive nature.

Nothing deep in this movie, but the music is nice, many Beatles and rock n' roll element in it.

一点都不输给李寿全的摇滚歌手，虽然摇滚总免不了带有西洋的味道，而萧福德也没能够像崔健一样吸取摇滚的精神，注入中华的血液，但是萧福德已经是值得喝彩的华人摇滚歌手。唯一喜欢的福建摇滚歌手。

One of the very few, if not the only one who are able to adopt proper rock style and sing in Chinese hock kian dialect, I only wish to hear more from him, and wish that he will continue to develop and write more quality hock kian rock. All th best XIAO!
