I like the way you sang "happiness" and how it almost sound like heaven. Because of this small detail, there's just that much more double meaning to to the song.
Its a good cover. I think you sang it well, bronchitis or not. The particular translation you used was a bit awkward in places, but for this song, it's better to have awkward English than change the meaning. I'd say it's better than I would have thought an English language version of this song could be, but I think I like the song in Chinese better.
Every time I hear it in Chinese, I get tears in my eyes, and I have to sing to parts of it. It's not as powerful in English for some reason.
this is an amazing cover. i am surprised not more people leave comments. I guess the meaning of the song is lost to a lot people in this day and age. =(

Glad you liked it. Not sure what you mean by pop but in fact I had bronchitis when I did this in one take...too sick to do it any better :)
I am trying to figure out how do make an English version of Nothing To My Name, a work in progress
