Blog 2 ：Followers of Chinese Style Music

       Recently I have listened many English songs, aiming to improve English and enjoy fair-sounding music at the same time.  English is also great but it reminds me of Chinese style music.  Checking my music list, I found Chinese style music makes up a big part in Chinese songs. And there are three followers of Chinese style music that I like most.

       Jay Chou comes to the first one.  I have been enjoying his music for many years. It’s him that makes me to be fond of Chinese style music.  Jay is also the most famous follower of Chinese style music. Somebody even call this style “Chou style”, though he does not agree.  He regularly fuses traditional Chinese instruments and styles with R&B or rock thereby form a new genre-Chinese style.  His famous opuses of Chinese style includes “Faraway" “Chrysanthemum Terrace” “Rice Fragrance” “East Wind Breaks” “”“Hair Like Snow”and so on.  Jay is the representative of Chinese style music.

       Vae is the second one.  People may be more familiar with his another name—Xu Song.  Indigo blue is extracted from the indigo plant but is bluer than the plant it comes from.  Vae inherits Jay’s style and performs extraordinarily well. His songs, such as “Luzhou Moon” “Rainfall on Tomb-sweeping Day” “Rudimental Snow on the Broken Bridge” “The fated enemy”, are really a hit for us, those who like Chinese style music. He is a competent follower that makes me love this kind of song much more.

       The third one is Hou Xian, whose original name is Deng Wenbin.  Though he is not as famous as the two above, he devotes more time to creating excellent opuses. His songs are almost all of Chinese style.  “West Wing-room” “Tang Song Yuan Ming Qing” “Baby face” are all classical Chinese style songs. He follow this style and created many fair-sounding songs.

              Chinese style music always makes me very comfortable and peaceful from soul. Thanks to these followers, I can frequently enjoy such great songs. Maybe I will also love English songs as well but the feeling will be quite different. I hope more followers can come up and create more fair-sounding songs.
