| This is a great song by a Taiwanese artist named Jay Chou (周杰倫). The song is called “Ting Mama de Hua” (聼媽媽的話), or “Listen to What Mama Says”. It’s a great little song, not at all typical of rap music (in the West, at least). I’m not a huge fan of rap as a genre of music, but sometimes you find yourself listening to things in a foreign language more than you do in your native language because if you don’t know the words, you can’t be offended or irritated, right? So I looked up the words to this one and found an English translation, and the lyrics are actually pretty touching and wise. Click here for the lyrics in Chinese characters, pinyin, and English. Enjoy! |
