5 (or 4 I guess, by the time I'm done editing this post) days left until our biggest day in 2013! Excited, excited excited!
Notes:
- I AM (not one of, I AM!) the MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE Chinese folksong (native, older composed and contemporary) lover kid that is pure fan, and has no professional/performance association, in my generation in the whole world. PERIOD.
- Googled 春节歌曲, songs found were... mmm... CD store speaker hits that every little bird knows, like...恭禧恭禧恭禧你...the list so...bleh... a disgrace to our lovely music and festival culture.
- Feeling like procrastinating on my bizillion school work that is due end of this week, I have compiled a GENUINE almost-all-folksongs Chinese New Year playlist that suits the various moods associated with Chinese New Years- Longing, belonging, love, family, togetherness, prosperity and happiness.
- Not all these songs are Chinese New Years related, but I find them to be quite good for the occasion.
- The singer is written beside the song, the singer is not necessarily the original singer of the song, but the version I quite like (or the only version I know)
- I like new things, so I try to put an emphasis contemporary folksongs and their singers.
- Most of these songs are in minor, I tend to LOVE minor melodies. They are not all slow though, there are many very cheerful, happy and fast songs in minor in Chinese folk music.
- The songs are not in any particular order. They are organized by singer.
- I try to stay away from melody soothing, tear-jerker/family love, remembrance songs such as 《疼爱妈妈》 (suggested listen, watch the MV too... I start bawling like an animal every time I sing this fxxkin song in karaoke...)
- AND NO, I'm not advocating for any political, kiss-ass means than my very fine culture and music!
