C-pop Saturday

Time for another C-pop Saturday! I started this feature in April and thought I could it make a regular one. (It's August now so maybe not so regular, but never mind! lol). You can read the first post here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2018/04/c-pop-saturday.html


Kris Wu- Tian Di

Chinese Canadian singer Kris Wu (a former member of Korean/Chinese boyband EXO) released the single Tian Di in June. It translates as "Heaven and Earth" in English.  Check out the video here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2018/06/weekly-music-video_13.html


Kris Wu- Hold Me Down

Another one from Kris, this is Hold Me Down (Chinese version). It says it's an official video but it's not Kris' channel, so I may replace this if it gets uploaded to his official YouTube.


Update 2/1/19: The original video I posted has been blocked on copyright grounds but here is the audio from his official channel:


And a video for the English version of Hold Me Down was uploaded on New Year's Eve:

Tia Ray feat. Jackson Wang- Lucky Star

Last month I featured Lucky Rain by Chinese singer Tia Ray featuring Hong Kong singer Jackson Wang (from K-pop boyband GOT7). You can watch the video here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2018/07/weekly-music-video.html



 Tia Ray- I Will Always Love You

This is the latest single by Tia, which was released on 15th August. It's from her 2nd album TIARA. Nice, relaxing song.





Loura Lou- Mirage

This is Mirage by Loura Lou. Her Chinese name is Lou Yixiao (her surname is Lou) and she's an actress and singer from Liaoning. She started out as an actress in Chinese TV shows before launching a music career in 2012 with the single Little World. She's probably best known for playing Hu Yifei in the romantic comedy series iPartment.

Loura is signed to Warner Music. Mirage is her latest song. It's another one with a chilled out vibe.





Hope you enjoyed the post! :) What are your current favourite C-pop songs?

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo),
