i dont think this is a different "dialect", it's the accent/tone, every major chinese province has its own accents. Each big city has its own "accent" that sounds slightly different from putonhua
Agree. The song is not in a different dialect from Mandarin. It is still Mandarin but with a different accent. I read somewhere that the singer is from a northern region of china and that is why his mandarin sounds like that.
@Nanyanguo The singer can speak perfect Beijing Mandarin. It's not because he has an accent. It sang with a bit of a "twang" because of the region the story takes place.
Oh oh , as if the different Mandarin accents/tones are not already confusing enough, folks outside Mainland China mus beware the "twang" too. Ok thanx a lot. . .
Great River Flows toward the east, the stars in the sky joins the northern star. *hay hay joins the northern star*, life and death is a drink away. say march, then we shall march, you got it, I got it, all got it. * hay hay all got it, through water and fire we will not turn back*. If the road is rough we shall scream, when its time to fight, we must fight, In the wind and fire we shall cross the nine continents.
Loose translation: "The Great river flows to the east, And under the north start, Life or Death, It's just a drink away, If you say march, We will march! You, me, everyone! Through wind and fire, No turning back! If the Road becomes rough, Just yell! If we must fight, Then when the time comes, we fight! Wind! Fire! We'll march to the ends of the earth!!"
Yeah! Excellent choice for choosing him to be the other singer along with Sarah Brightman for the singing of the theme song for The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games this year...
thanks for childhood memories.. great song for Water Margin
