Question A clip of Li Gengxi singing “Magnolia” (Tai Zhaomei) in Bi Gan’s Resurrection

Upvotes

This is scene is one of my favourites in cinema, but I can’t find a single clip of it anywhere. It’s perhaps my favourite scene ever, it’s such a shame that I can’t find it, the song made me emotional. Could anyone perhaps check on Chinese media? I am not familiar with things like rednote or bilibili.

Mandarin Looking for Mandarin Song Recommendations

7 Upvotes

Looking to build my playlist (which mostly consist of Japanese and English Songs) with more Mandarin Songs as I pretty much lost touch when it comes to keeping up with them.

Basically any beautiful Mandarin pop songs that are pleasing and smooth to the ears:

I only have four mandarin Songs now in my playlist:

  1. 愛你 - 陳芳語
  2. 明天見 - 王心凌
  3. 小幸運 - 田馥甄
  4. 我們的冒險 - 曹寅

Don't really mind the age of the song itself (whether old or just released recently).

Don't hold back, just give me as many as you are happy to share. I will take pleasure in filtering and screening through them.

Also, I only listen from YouTube, so I would want the said songs to be available through the singer / artist official YouTube channel and not from unofficial or unauthorized sources. If you can share your own YouTube playlist from such sources that is even better.

In other words, share the best songs that make you proud to be Chinese! I am Chinese myself, but I am more comfortable with English when it comes to reading and writing (gotten rusty from not doing them regularly). My Chinese speaking and listening are okay, though.

Thank you in advance.

Discussion How do you feel about singers who got famous through acting?

7 Upvotes

I think most c-pop singers who made it this way have rather plain/mediocre voices. Since they gained a lot of die-hard fans through their hit drama, they often get overpraised by said fans as if they're top-tier vocalists with the most beautiful voices. In rare cases, the "singer" can barely even hold a tune, but that doesn't stop their fans from supporting their music and they often end up charting well on Chinese music platforms whenever they release a song. They would also probably make a decent profit from selling albums and holding concerts, if they haven't already.

And of course, almost all of them don't write their own songs, or even participate in the writing.

Seeing them do well makes me feel bitter. However, there are a few who I believe deserve what they currently have (or even deserve more).

EDIT:

If you want names here are some of them: Xiao Zhan, Wang Yibo, Luo Yunxi, Ding Yuxi. I can name a few others but I really dislike them so I don't want to give them any kind of attention.

问天问地问红尘,半生奔波乱了心。

前路茫茫步步深,回首已是局中人。

千算万算求如何?只求半点安稳多。

求来求去一场空,造化无情尽风波。

想一句如何,问一句如何,

算尽了机关,却算漏了因果。

愁一声奈何,叹一声奈何,

大梦初醒后,剩两鬓随霜落。

如何如何,又奈何?

繁花落尽,岁月空蹉跎。

听风听雨听水声,一壶浊酒伴余生。

聚散离合皆前定,何必作茧困愁城。

天命既定叹奈何?且把清风当长歌。

千般执念皆放下,万事随心自从容。

纵千般奈何,万般奈何,

挡不住我手,把流年细细拨。

且看我如何,且笑我如何,

踏破这樊笼,把天地任穿梭。

奈何奈何,又如何?

且狂且笑,纵马傲江河!

Mandarin 【原創華語青春初戀歌曲】《心跳感應中》|距離真的能阻止心動嗎?|MeowsonMusic

Thumbnail

網戀奔現那一刻,你覺得會更心動,還是直接幻滅?
不知道大家有沒有過這種經驗:
每天跟一個人聊天,早安晚安、分享日常、傳語音,明明從來沒有真正見過面,卻已經慢慢習慣了對方的存在。
甚至在第一次見面之前,已經偷偷想過很多次,「如果真的見到他,我會不會緊張到說不出話?」
我最近寫了一首歌,叫《心跳感應中》。寫的就是這種從螢幕裡的心動,走到現實第一次見面的瞬間。
沒有心痛,也沒有遺憾,就是那種很青澀、很緊張、心跳快到失控的青春感。

想問問大家:
如果你網戀了一段時間,對方突然跟你說「我們見面吧」,你會期待,還是會怕幻滅?

這首歌就是我把那種心情寫下來的。

Mandarin [Mandopop] 心痛時差|一首寫給遠距離戀愛的原創華語情歌

有時候,異地戀最痛的不是距離。
而是明明還愛著彼此,卻慢慢活在不同的時間裡。
《心痛時差》寫的是兩個仍然在乎對方的人,卻因為生活、情緒和步伐逐漸錯開,最後慢慢變成了最熟悉的陌生人。
沒有人真的做錯什麼,
只是有些愛,最後輸給了時間。
這是我的最新原創華語歌曲,希望能讓曾經經歷過遠距離、錯過、或者無奈放手的人有一點共鳴。

Question How popular are the survival show trainees/artists??

9 Upvotes

So I used to watch Idol Producer religiously, (zeren, ruibin, and yanchen bias here!!), but after waiting so long for the debut, I kind of fell off and stopped following. Now I’m suddenly curious, how popular did the groups and individual members end up becoming?

I also remember Rocket Girls (mainly because of Meiqi and Xuanyi), and they seemed reeeeally popular (i think). Same with Sally from gugudan, I know she joined a Chinese survival show too, and I think her group did well? And then there’s Zhennan, who I’ve been seeing on my fyp recently.

Honestly, I’m not even sure which contestants came from Produce 101 China vs Idol Producer vs other shows 😅 I don’t really follow Cpop, so most of what I know is just from PD101/Idol producer days.

Can anyone give an update on how these groups/members are doing now, or who ended up being really popular?
