C-pop Saturday

Time for another post in my "semi- regular" C-pop Saturday series! The last one was in March. So here are some more C-pop songs. :)


Kris Wu- AURORA

First up is AURORA, one of the latest songs from Chinese Canadian solo singer (former EXO member) Kris Wu. It was released back in April and I featured it as a Weekly Music Video in May: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2020/05/weekly-music-video_20.html

Kris also released the official visualiser for BIG BOWL, THICK NOODLE on the same day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGxDxwJjMUc


Lexie Liu- Whenever

Chinese singer Lexie Liu released the lyric video for the song Whenever in April and I remember liking it the first time I heard. It's a nice chilled R'n'B song with a mixture of Chinese (Mandarin, I think) and English lyrics.

Whenever is from Lexie's latest album Metropolis, which came out last December. As with Metropolis, another single from the album, the video for Whenever has an English translation of the Chinese lyrics, and a Chinese translation of the English lyrics, which is cool. :)




Julia Wu- Summertime (Julia Wu Remix)

Last month I did a Summer Songs Round-up post and one of the songs featured was Australian born Chinese singer Julia Wu's Summertime Remix. The original song is by Japanese singer RIRI and Julia did an English and Chinese version. RIRI's version is also in the post. Check them out here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2020/06/summer-songs-round-up.html

See below for another song from Julia (no relation to Kris!). :)


Julia Wu & Chris Flow- Player

Julia teamed up with Chrisflow for the song player, released in May.



Julia also released the English language song Chill in June. Watch the lyric video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4e3yu0LBEQ


Hope you liked the post! :) What Chinese songs are you listening to currently?

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), ...
