Is the song originally written by this 'shin' dude or are its roots older than that. I heard he split up with his band without telling them. Is this true?
lol redrubberyboots except that is a japanese song and these instruments/words/vocal styling is chinese. Its like the difference between the Germans and the French. They both white but they sound different.
我是美国人但是我在学中国话。我觉得中国非常有意思。I have no fear of Chinese are going to take over the world or anything that extreme. The Chinese are extremely hard working people that can accomplice anything the put their mind to! 我爱中国!
@glowjack177 there are worries that china is attempting to assimilate taiwan through economic means, but I believe this is simply overreaction and conspiracy theory. Remember that over half of Taiwan's people consider themselves taiwanese and independent.
@misterginsberg A country that is suppressed by fear is still independent. America's 9/11 did not mean that it is not sovereign. All the 1000 chinese ballistic missiles accomplish is to demonstrate to the world China's military might and tendency to work towards fear tactics and bullying.
Finally, I'd just like to point out that even if all the aborigines miraculously died (and if they did, I wouldn't be typing this) and was instantly replaced by han chinese as soon as they arrived, that still doesn't make Taiwan part of China. Australia's population is over 90 percent British or Irish, but that doesn't make them part of Great Britain. New Zealand is over 95 percent british, but that doesn't mean it is part of britain. Ethnicity has nothing to do with sovereignty.
@teabagger702 you keep it real. Consult Chinese, Taiwanese, British, French, and Japanese sources, not whatever the UN dictates. If the UN can't control anything in countries that actually need their help, then they sure as hell do not have the right to judge the liberty of a developed, mature culture such as Taiwan's.
@teabagger702 for example, my DNA testing, and my family's, revealed that we have more in common with the Maori people in NZ than native Han Chinese. Our community has been that way since before the Chinese changed our names.
As I stated before, during the Montevideo convention (which is sanctioned by the US and approved of by the EU as well as most latin american and asian countries) states that a country DOES NOT NEED recognition to be a country. The UN's poor opinion, is void.
@teabagger702 harumph. You don't find it a tiny bit suspicious that throughout Taiwan's history with China china has always tried to severely curb the population there, that only males were allowed to go for a few months at a time, and yet the census proclaims that by 1890 China was 100 percent Chinese? The emperor Qianlong decreed that all native Taiwanese must change their names and thus ethnicity, but saying ain't so. If I called you a nigerian now that wouldn't make you one.
@teabagger702 i wrote more, read the message I sent you. Regarding your point: China took official interest in Taiwan for around 5-10 years in the 1880s. In comparison, Taiwan was a heavily invested Japanese colony for 50 years. China is about as much a "mother country" to Taiwan as italy is to ethiopia. You're not a realist, you're a bigot focused on superficial details. Taiwan is a recognized country in every way except name, which does not mean anything in the international arena.
@teabagger702 I've done research on this for over twelve years now, scrutinized sources from every power that's ever been involved anywhere near the taiwanese strait. Taiwan WAS represented during the Chinese Olympics as "Chinese Taipei", but only because of a pointless naming order. For all intents and purposes, the atheletes were recognized world wide as hailing from Taiwan. I find it richly ironic that a person hailing from America would be a totalitarian sympathizer.
@teabagger702 if you're an american living in china, you have no right to say what the status of Taiwan is. Taiwan DID have a flag, but of course not in the chinese olympics. They were allowed the flag in the australian and athenian olympics prior to this, and they'll be allowed it in the london ones. Do some research? I've done over 12 years of research on this, and you, being american, should support the taiwanese cause since your own country was one that broke away from tyrannical power.
@teabagger702 Reviving a topic for the sake of your idiocy; rofl, you're wrong. It doesn't "fall under china", since you communist filth never reached taiwan in the first place. You tried, and failed, on the san er ba battle at Jingmen. Get over yourself, Taiwan is already independent and has been for over half a century.
@brainwasher9876 But reunion isn't out of the question. The culture's fallen out a but nothing worse than the English dominions, an economic union is definitely possible and who knows, it could go the path of EU in which the two as essentially the same country to where day to day business is concerned.
@glowjack177 you're absolutely right, union isn't out of the question. I just hate anyone who thinks that they own taiwan just because they had once laid claim to it. If I laid claim to the US now, it doesn't make it mine. Same applies here.
@brainwasher9876 Well I hate war, (though I love war machines and tactics, kinda contradictory) and a claim will most likely lead to conflict so yes. Of course by the same reasoning every race would have a claim to Ethiopia, the cradle of mankind.
I went to Wuhan this winter and this song was sung every night we went for karaoke. thumbs up for the instrumental part. need to find the translation of this song.
English translation (from Google) -- Part 2 One Night in Beijing You Do not drink too much alcohol Walking in the Di'anmenwai No people do not Dongzhen Qing One Night in Beijing I left many circumstances Wine singing man; The Legacy of the North People say that the North Wolves Standing in the cold side from outside the city Wearing clothes iron corrosion Calling the city outside the eyes of the tears in their eyes
English translationg (from Google) -- Part 1 One Night in Beijing I left many circumstances Whether you love and do not love Are the dust of history One Night in Beijing I left many circumstances Afraid to ask for directions at midnight Reached the depths of fear of flowers People say that flowers in the depths of Home to an old lover Feng Zhao embroidered shoes Serene faces of the elderly Still waiting for naturalization were kept trained on expedition
Here's the chinese lyric and a not-so good english translation from Google. I can read a few chinese characters and the gist of it is that the woman is waiting for her lover to come back but he never did. This is suppose to to take place in acient times.
Does anyone on here, speak, & or knows mandarin, whom could privately email me, and tell me as to what it is that he is saying?....... I have a girlfriend in Beijing, & she sent to me this traclk about 7 days ago, knowing, [fully well] that I don't speak or write mandarin.... Please write me in return, if you know.....
es la mejor cancion que he oido pero la escuche de aya matsuura una idol japonesa, esta aqui en youtube la version. aunque debe leer la letra pues no sabe el idioma la voz y la musica suena espectacular. ^^
We are all CHINESE, in sense of the race. I am proud of my heritage, despite being raised in a English-speaking environment--thus my mandarin is not as good as I would like it to be...but thats beside the matter.
No matter where we come from, what country we reside in, what personal religion we choose to take--we all have common roots. Lets not let such political rubbish harm feelings, and enjoy this great, chinese song.
@wcfaa That's a really interesting interpretation. (For those who don't know Chinese, he said that the lyrics might be related to the cycle of rebirth: the song's narrator left his lover and home a thousand years ago in his previous life; now he's visiting Beijing, his old home, but reborn as a tourist.) It does fit with the whole sense of being scared to touch Beijing too deeply, in lines like "afraid to stir the heartbroken spirits" and "afraid of coming upon the garden of all flowers."
I'm afraid all this bickering is just a pretense for these politician wannabes to voice their "opinions". They are not here to enjoy the music like you and me. They are looking for a soapbox to stand on but was too cheap to build their own blog or website to do so and decided to flex their political know-how on youtube.
Really, you kids need to just pack up and go somewhere else to deal with it. This page is for the music, not Larry King Live.
Really though, one thing that bothers me is how people read an article on Wikipedia or listen to their friends and think they understand everything. You are mislead and I feel very bad that you have to be this ignorant.
@xcobraxvc not to revive a dead topic, but you were incorrect on one point. According to the Montevedeo convention, a country does not need external recognition to be a country. For example, China was clearly a country even though America did not recognize it as such until the 1970s.
Okay, I'm sure anyone can tell you that if China wanted to, it can conquer Taiwan in under a day if no one stops it. However do you know why China will never be able to turn Taiwan communist? Because the United States wouldn't allow it. Allowing China to control Taiwan gives them too much control over the pacific (trading routes, military position)
more idiocy. the people that fled to Taiwan only comprise of less than 15 percent of Taiwan. If 15 percent means that, then the US should be called Mexico, or Africa, seeing how they each nearly make up 15 percent of the population
I love this song.

這歌相信與輪有關: 前生為一戰士因出戰而留下情人於老家. 戰死後成為一名Beijin遊客, 重遊舊地.

@wcfaa That's a really interesting interpretation. (For those who don't know Chinese, he said that the lyrics might be related to the cycle of rebirth: the song's narrator left his lover and home a thousand years ago in his previous life; now he's visiting Beijing, his old home, but reborn as a tourist.) It does fit with the whole sense of being scared to touch Beijing too deeply, in lines like "afraid to stir the heartbroken spirits" and "afraid of coming upon the garden of all flowers."

can we stop this political discussion and enjoy the music instead?
blackapple89er 3 years ago 11
I'm afraid all this bickering is just a pretense for these politician wannabes to voice their "opinions". They are not here to enjoy the music like you and me. They are looking for a soapbox to stand on but was too cheap to build their own blog or website to do so and decided to flex their political know-how on youtube.
Really, you kids need to just pack up and go somewhere else to deal with it. This page is for the music, not Larry King Live.

Really though, one thing that bothers me is how people read an article on Wikipedia or listen to their friends and think they understand everything. You are mislead and I feel very bad that you have to be this ignorant.

also do you know what the definition of a country is?
an independent country is defined as space or territory which has internationally recognized boundaries
-people who live there on an ongoing basis.
-economic activity and stability and issues money
-Has the power of social engineering
-Has a transportation system
-Has a government which provides public services and police power.
-Has sovereignty. No other State should have power over the country's territory.
-Has external recognition
xcobraxvc 3 years ago
@xcobraxvc not to revive a dead topic, but you were incorrect on one point. According to the Montevedeo convention, a country does not need external recognition to be a country. For example, China was clearly a country even though America did not recognize it as such until the 1970s.

Okay, I'm sure anyone can tell you that if China wanted to, it can conquer Taiwan in under a day if no one stops it. However do you know why China will never be able to turn Taiwan communist? Because the United States wouldn't allow it. Allowing China to control Taiwan gives them too much control over the pacific (trading routes, military position)

and i bet you think christopher columbus discovered America. and wikipedia is very reliable...
also if you wanted to go far back then people migrated to china from Africa... so all chinese people arent chinese, but african right?
xcobraxvc 3 years ago
you are just playing with vocabularies and there meanings
the term "chinese" doesn't just mean people from the land of china
and the term "african" doesn't just mean people from the continent of africa

more idiocy. the people that fled to Taiwan only comprise of less than 15 percent of Taiwan. If 15 percent means that, then the US should be called Mexico, or Africa, seeing how they each nearly make up 15 percent of the population
