Favorite Asian Music Video - Click HERE for Original Thread

wong
Asian music videos are getting a lot better now - I think they've caught up with the west.  Which is your favorite?<p>

angelscythe
True true. Unfortunately I don't get a lot of Asian music videos here in the U.S. MTV need to expand their horizons. I did get lucky and saw some Faye video and Jay's...yeah, you knew that was coming. ^_^ I love Jay's video Ba, wo hui lai le (Dad, I'm back). It's artistically beyond me. I pay all my respect to the director. Course, the great song helped too...

Talented
They play them on Chinavision sometimes here in Canada, but I just download most of them.  If you want, I can send you some angelscythe and wong, but they are pretty large files.. around 40mb for 1 video.

Marximus
Not sure about legality, but we're considering putting them up for dl on AN once we move to our new provider.<p>

emli
Sorry 2 change the subject - but can someone tell me about jay? he seems to be really popular in hk at the moment<p>I cant think of any good chinese videos - most of them r pretty boring - but i havent seen any new ones recently

angelscythe
I'll tell. Although, I probably shouldn't since I'm in the U.S. and I know nothing. Lol. Jay is...22, he writes, produces, arranges, sings (well, yeah) all his songs. He also plays the classical piano, cello, and guitar. Bottom line, he's a music prodigy with an edgy style. I like him a lot because his music is original, unlike most other C-pop stars. Those and that he's a introvert. Teehee.

Thanks angelscythe <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->  one more question does he only sing in mandarin? so r his videos good then<p>Where do u download these videos from talented?

angelscythe
Yeah, he sings in mandarin. Thank god. I can't handle dialects. ^^; I would recommand only the  'dad, I'm back' video though, his other videos kind of...suck. Lol. Well, maybe except 'counterclock' and 'ninja' was kind of fun. You can download 'dad' at... <p>http://www.angelfire.com/nj3/catchinup/Jay.html<p>The video's somewhere among the many things in that page. You can also find his mp3s at <p>http://lujj.mmdcb.com/zhoujielun.htm<p>^^; Heh, hope that's enough info for ya!

[/b][/quote]<p>U can use morpheaus (www.musiccity.com) and search for video's.  that works fairly good as well.

Talented
It might even be higher than 95 %  <p>Chinese movies really suck, except for the really rare good ones.

[/b][/quote]<p>Someone told me that it's because actors in HK make really little money, and it's the singers that have the true talent, that's why the singers make a lot of money.<p>So, that's why everyone wants to sing.  

masterv
considering movies are the most bootlegged item in HK i prolly make like minimum pay like everyone else over there...but then again cdz and movies can always be dwlded no matter wat but the amt of bootlegged movies costs production companies so much..

KingKiong
hk music videos are too exaggerated. too many moves and not enough singing.  korean music videos are better IMO <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
