Oops, I mixed up the "friends" songs in my head . The song I meant was sung by Emil Chow 周華健Calcifer wrote:
I looked up 张学友;只找到一个叫"给朋友"的歌. 我是知道一个歌叫"朋友" (a great song), 但是是另外一个歌手唱的...不知道你说的"朋友"是谁唱的?
A*mei; she's the Taiwanese princess singer, right? I think I've heard her before; a very nice voice.
For Chinese songs, I go to baidu.com mostly.
我刚刚在电视上听到一个挺感人的歌: anyone seen Jin Fen Shi Jia/金粉世家(Story of a Noble Family, I think is its English name)? I haven't yet, but the opening theme song is darn powerful. Not in your typical modern rock/radio-ish way, but it has awesome lyrics/melody. It's called 暗香.
Yipp, Amei is the Taiwanese princess singer with Tainwanese Aborigines Descents (Can I use the "Aborigines"here or is it only used for Australia?) So some of her songs are influenced by that fact . If you listen to the song "Katsu" you'll know what I mean.
