Don't Cry For Me Argentina (阿根廷別為我哭泣) - by Yuquan Chen (陈玉泉)

[embun1945]

I like listening to your beautiful voice. You have different timbre than Jane Zhang in my opinion it is OK to have your own natural style. Keep going and singing, you have a listener who love your voice.

[yuquanchen]

@embun1945 Thank you so much for your kindness. I've been sharpening my skills this year, and have gone up to a whole new level. If this song proved to be challenging, I may try again in the future; if not, then I'll pass. I may have new live recordings (if usable) soon, welcome to come by and listen to them :)

Hello Y, Happy New Year.

Very nice, I love this song and you sing it so well.

Very sweet picture of you too.

[yuquanchen]

@MrJamie1957 Hi Jamie, nice to hear from you from time to time. Sorry for the late reply, seems so much happenings around the holiday season (lots of distractions, small and big). Thank you for your compliment.

[jcguu]

歌聲清晰婉約也帶磁性和穿透力，很有特色。有專輯可收藏嗎？

Bravo! Refreshing and resonating voice! Highly recommended! Two thumbs up!

[yuquanchen]

@jcguu Thank you very much for the compliment, though there are a lot for me to improve on this particular song. Glad you liked it. Sorry, I don't have any albums:(

《别为我哭泣，阿根廷》 也许让你们感到奇怪， 我要把心里话说出来， 我虽历经沧桑 仍需要你们的爱， 会不会相信眼前的我—— 你们相识的女孩， 她虽然穿戴好气派， 可生活却杂乱无奈。 我不得不把生活重新安排， 不愿一生贫困不痛快， 老是躲避着阳光， 呆呆望着窗外， 我选择自由， 上下奔波，闯荡新的舞台， 却依旧是一片空白。 我从未有太多期待， 别为我哭泣，阿根廷啊， 我从没有和你分开， 狂乱的岁月， 动荡的年代， 我恪守承诺， 别对我见外， 要说到荣华富贵的诱惑， 我从未刻意去收获， 也许在别人看来， 正是我所求索。 名利是虚幻， 从中得不到 解答问题的良策， 这答案始终就在于， 我爱你们，你们也爱我， 别为我哭泣，阿根廷啊。 别为我哭泣，阿根廷啊， 我从没有和你分开， 狂乱的岁月， 动荡的年代， 我恪守承诺， 别对我见外， 是否说太多？ 凡我能想到的都已对你们说， 但求你们望着我， 并理解我的话，句句出自心窝… 别为我哭泣，阿根廷啊。

One little suggestion if I may re: singing in English. When I listen carefully, your Chinese accent does manifest itself on occasion. Although I would have to say it is far less noticeable than Jane Zhang's accent.

The consonant sounds that do not appear in Chinese you seem to have mastered fairly well. Pay special attention to vowels and their relative duration in words. Also the actual sound of the vowels too! e.g. "ee" and short "i".

All this is just nit picking from a fan.

[yuquanchen]

@danL1011 Thanks for the nit picking. I am aware of these kind of pronunciations from Chinese, I was one of them, later realized it and have improved in other songs

[danL1011]

I continue to be very impressed with your musicality, not to mention your naturally beautiful voice. Two very different renditions of this song I like are: the original triumphant one by Patti Lapone and the one by Sinead O'Connor which displays mostly vulnerability. Check them out to compare the different emotions expressed.

Did you sing in China before immigrating to the US?

[DrLeow2010]

玉泉, you have sung this song 阿根廷別為我哭泣 made famous by Modonna, with such sweetness and feelings that in my opnion your voice is as good if not better than Madonna!

[GongDuke]

Charming! The voice, the passion... and everything else.

[victorsit2009]

《别为我哭泣，阿根廷》显示了你的高智商和语言天才。歌中虽没有­麦当娜的霸气，却展示了贝隆夫人Evita的温柔一面。我收集到­很多人爱听你的这首歌。



[nd212300]

Just could not stop listenning! So beautiful. I love all your songs.

[pych02]

人长得漂亮，歌也唱得好。别轻易放弃你的歌唱爱好！我们永远支持­你。的确很不容易。

请恕我的唐突，请问你目前是从事那一行？谢谢！

[pych02]

玉泉，照片中是你吗？令我心动的优雅气质。有好的嗓子，你要继续­唱下去。谢谢你的好歌。

[yuquanchen]

是我，大约2000年那时候拍的。谢谢你的鼓励。最近都没有唱了­，太多事情，没办法。不过有你们的鼓励我会尽力的。顺祝节日快乐­！

[j35s45n]

剛剛按錯鍵盤按鍵變成回報背景圖片,我不曉得會有何結果? 另外唱得很好聽

[aquarius88pet7]

Bravo Sabrina, you're great! Hope you have gained more confidence and come up with more evergreen favourites for us to remember.

[yuquanchen]

Thank you! Just came back from two months China trip. Will try to learn more English songs and improve them.

[468079]

玉泉，你唱歌真好听！

[yuquanchen]

谢谢你！欢迎常来！

[jianwahwu]

She is my singer of favourited for many years.Thanks for sharing.

[kinezzii]

this is not madona ?! woot ! :P

[RobsiejB]

I like this song alot, it is beautiful, and you've done a great job! I adore it :)!

[BigAtheist]

Your voice suits this song very well...very well indeed, brovo

[ucubemoe]

If you try again this song this time again,

I believe you can make better than ('cause you gain some more experience now )this.

That would be as good as TT's"Moon Repersent My Heart" (so far it is the of yours)

[yuquanchen]

I'm at least confident I'd do better job next time if I sing it again, though I'm not sure how much better it would be. Thank you for having confidence in me.

[jinshui56]

你是谁呀？

唱得很好嘛。

有时间把你放这里的歌都听一听。：）

谢谢。

[yuquanchen]

谢谢你来听歌并且喜欢我的歌

[Madsam02]

nightingale, shouldn't this song be

阿根廷 別哭叫着我

(....don't cry for me, argentina,

the truth is i've never left you.)

sorry if i sound pedantic,

love your songs :  )

[allanyip]

Sabrina, your singing is excellent!

[wonnep]

Incredible

[gonzaloreina]

hi , i from Argentina ... you are wonderful and your voice is beautiful... it is very pretty that you have sung that song but do you know that it treats the song?

[sarachan]

very beautiful :D bravo! and yes, it would be great to see you perform your songs in your videos too

[youngmikkel]

xxxx

[gersing]

wow, so beautifully sang.

[luxcretia2]

very beautiful

[BatCatherine]

It's really beatutiful ^^ you have a very good voice ^^

[3890peter]

I thought is was very nice. I liked your voice. I would have liked to seen you sing it too.

[yuquanchen]

Thank you. I wanted to have a nice video with live performance, but found no time, though I'll sure like to try.

[qxw66]

此歌和邓歌风格差别极大，应该说相反

唱起来要野，要硬，要狠。麦当娜为什么此歌风头足？因为附和她的­风格。

[laurenlovesmark]

One word to describe this: amazing! You have a beautiful voice and I love your version of this song the best. Very nice!

[blacknwhitenotes]

Your have a lot of musicality, which, In my opinion, is far more vital than technique to a musician. Keep up the good work.

[IntoTheWest23]

I have to say that this is a beautiful and sweet version of the song and you did a wonderful job. I have always wanted to upload myself singing but I think I would be to shy to do so. I'm glad your not because otherwise no one would have been able to enjoy this.

[sinoideal]

Hi, this voice from beijing china. your sweet sound bring me into dreamland! thanks.

[yuquanchen]

Thank you very much. I'm so flattered!

[voddka]

Admirable !

[bacinger]

You have beautiful voice. Please keep singing!

[GaoshanXiaohui]

Great performance!

[arvindpradhan]

Yuquan, the people who have commented that you could use more passion in this song have perhaps not realised that your song (and hen yi han other songs) are really audio performances. Other Youtube cuts are video clips. If you post video clips, the same passion will ooze out of your songs as from the original in Evita. YuQuan, your songs are just passionate as anyone elses and probably better than most.

[clsanland]

Happened to play your recording today and liked it very much. Very nice voice! A little more passion will make you on par with top singers such as Tina and Modanna. I also played your Chinese songs and love everyone of them. Look forward for more wonderful songs (and videos) from you.

[yuquanchen]

I wasn't thinking about passion at all till the next day after the posting :-(. It was like suddenly I realized what was missing. Glad you feel good about the song overall. Happy to know that you like my Chinese songs too. If you prefer, you can subscribe to my songs so you'd be notified automatically. Thank you for the support

[petenehl]

Your backup music is bad. You should remix and emphasize your beautiful, pure voice over the music. This should be a happy a song up to the end, a triumph, so sing it uptempo and strong. Sing it strong, no one else does.

[yuquanchen]

Thank you for the critics. I am aware the music quality. I felt the song a lot more after I posted it. Though there's still a lot to learn, I'm happy that I do get better over the time, and it should sound a lot better once I use pro recording system. Keep giving me your comments. I value them very much.

[xh2001]

Great song and excellent vocal skills!!! Your first English song debut has transcended your role as a Chinese singer.

[dickcalandrella]

Your singing voice is beautiful and smooth and very rhythmic to the music, and your pronunciation of the English words is excellent. I do feel that if you can sing this particular song with more passion and feeling from deep within your heart and soul - and I know you can - it would be much more powerful. You have a marvelous voice and I wish you success as you continue to record the music you love.

[youngql]

Very talented with great potential!

[hongwave]

After listened your several songs in Chinese, I was amazed by your passionate voice in this English song again. There are very few singers can sing and sing very well in both languages. You are a talent singer with great potential!

[yingchaozhang]

Great singing again! There are two ways of expressing feelings through a song. One is more explicit and external; the other is more restrain and internal. You seem to take the second approach, and I wonder if you would like to try the first as well. Curious to find out how you will sound like if you do...

[yujia07]

The singing itself is quite smooth and beautiful. Putting in the passions would make it great. Have you seen the movie "Evita"? It might help. Anyway, you have such nice voice.

[cheerfulhamster]

Your dynamic range is dependent on your mic and recording setup too. If you get a better setup or record in a studio, you will rule the world! Another terrific performance. Your pitch is perfect. Your version of "End of the World" is also quite nice. Even with just a karaoke machine, you have the best songs on YouTube.

[yuquanchen]

Your words mean a lot to me. I know little about recording. I look forward to recording in a studio one day once I am ready. For now I'll continue to improve and discover songs that suit me the best during such random home recordings.

[maoer78]

I love this song, and love your voice!

[tz01810]

Love this beautiful song. You can sing both Chinese and English songs very well. You go, Girl.

[yuquanchen]

Thanks! I already feel that I can sing better now after comparing different versions out there just today. I really should have listened more first to decide what voice is the best for me in this song :-(

[TraderJoe1]

Don't try too hard mimic other's voices, you have a beautiful voice of your own and should sing what comes naturally.

[TraderJoe1]

You sing this song beautifully. You may lack some of the dynamic range from singers such as Sarah Brightman or Elaine Paige but this is the best rendition of this classic by an Asian singer, bar none.

[ccoldn]

Amazing you can sing both Chinese and English songs so well. Think I have become a fan of yours. Keep up the good work!
