Theresa Fu, canto pop goddess with On Your Mark – quite possibly the catchiest pop song ever written?  Nah, but it’s good. It’s my current favourite along with the Fearless track.

You can see another version of the video here, if you so desire.

Not really sure where to get them, could be on Amazon – I’m hoping they’ll be easy enough to find on my next trip to my local Chinatown.

Yeah, this is one of the ones that I do like despite myself. So sappy but there’s just something too addictive about the chorus after hearing it a few times.

Leo Ku singing Belated Love or Never Too Late depending on your translation.

Jolin is a little creepy. She looks a different person every time they change her make up and hair.

You could have told me there were two main singers in this clip for Let’s Move It and I would have been yeah okay:

She’s from Taiwan like Jay Chou.

Here she being all butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth in Ideal State:

And is this the same person doing Zheng Yi Zhi Yan, Bi Yi Zhi Yan – apparently..

Have been listening to some sino pop, strangely nothing to do with the Olympics. Just the usual thing where I hear one good tune on YouTube and then I follow the links – suddenly, it’s already lunch and I have no work done. But the Olympics is a good excuse I guess. So today and for the next few days, I’ll post a series of popular canto and taiwo pop music videos. Some are very catchy, others I like despite myself. Anyway, you can be the judge…

First up, Taiwanese born Jay Chou’s Fearless from the martial arts movie of the same name. And yes, apparently that IS him doing a falsetto duet with himself. Love it.
