Update #9: Downloads
This is a somewhat weekly Mandarin Chinese MP3 Rotation in which I offer selected pieces of music for download encompassing many different genres.
*Please comment if you download so I can get a sense of how many people come here. You do not need a Livejournal to comment.
*Please delete the file(s) after 24 hours as they are for sampling purposes only.
*Please support the artists and purchase their albums if you enjoy what you hear.
*Don't repost/direct-link these files elsewhere.
*Files are deleted after a new update is added.
*I don't take requests.
*If you would like a song from a previous update, please leave a comment (provide your email!) and I'll try to get it to you.
*Feel free to add me to your friends list for updates.
*I upload what I like, which isn't necessarily new or mainstream.

The next few weeks will be a little different. I will not be posting songs that I own from CDs. These are songs that I have downloaded from other places.  It is unfortunate that I do not own all of the music that I love.  But I would still like to share these wonderful pieces of music with everyone.

不對也要愛
櫻桃幫
親愛的王子, 2006
Slow Rock

Zha-zha (lead vocalist), Gua (guitarist), Xiao-qian (bassist), and Da-tian (drummer) make up Cherry Boom, a band they formed as students of Fu Jen Catholic University in Taiwan.

This song is amazing. Maybe it’s just an appealing melody and some talented composition. Nonetheless, I do feel that the lead singer's voice seals the deal. A singer with just a more emotionless voice would have just broken the song. She accomplishes it flawlessly.

愛就愛了
陳琳
愛就愛了, 2001
Acoustic, Rock

Chen Lin is a female singer from mainland China.

Ai Jiu Ai Le has a catchy melody and exudes a carefree aura.  I love the guitar playing.


柯有倫
戰神, 2004
Rock

Alan Kuo is the son of the famous stuntman "Xiao Hei".  He gained popularity by composing and singing the theme song of the drama "Mars".

Ling is almost indescribable.  It has a perpetual pulse that keeps driving forward, and the emotion is so raw and full of adrenaline.

丟了
趙之璧
在你和天空之間, 2001
Slow Rock

Bibi Chao was the lead singer of the band Scrap Metal, which released an album in 1998.

Diu Le starts off with beautiful piano playing and with a slight attitude before moving onto even more powerful singing.

Hi. This is a cool rotation. =) I found you searching for the lyrics to Michael Wong's Fairytale in traditional characters.

Hi

I always have to trawl around looking for chinese music to sample. I usually have to go to youtube to watch MVs but they take forever to load and most of the time I just want to check out a song and see what its like but there are no sites to sample chinese music with english summaries. So thank you, you've made my days easier!
