Faye Wong - Dream Person

[calvin921023]

A very rendition of a classic track from Cranberries. Faye Wong never disappoint.

[JackKlompus13]

Will someone explain to me who the girl in the video is? I've seen many videos of Faye, and she doesn't look quite like this. Is it another girl? Or did Faye just look slightly different here?

[pinklover511]

@JackKlompus13 Yea, it's another girl in this video. 

[brettGORE]

I did NOT expect to come to the conclusion that I am preferring this to the original.

[Jkfilms7]

I actually prefer this to the original.

[winastron]

Love you,Faye!

[cantorock]

This is the way that cover versions should be made... it adds to the original, and is an excellent song in its own right.

I love this version, and wish that more Chinese cover songs would be as good as this

[asianiggas]

Wait a minute.. was this song originally an American song? I could've sworn I heard this song in English once. Does anybody know..?

[firestartertwistedfi]

@asianigga - Irish actually - it's the Cranberries.

[andrewshere]

@d19t85 - This version is in Cantonese

[d19t85]

Is this in Cantonese or Mandarin? There's another version on her Guo Yu Zhen Jing Dian album, and it has different lyrics, much like there are two versions of Zhi Mi Bu Hui, with the lyrics being different, but only because it's the same song in two different languages.

The title of the song on the Guo (etc) album is Zheng Tuo.

[sustainablehuman]

@d19t85 Cantonese. The mandarin version is better.

[SaphiraPorter]

what movie is the m.v. for? i know this song is in chungking express... but the vid isn't

[Cronos844]

listen to this in chinese

[ppyyoonnii]

who the heck is that girl from music video. I wanna see faye, not her

[RododendroxD]

Thank you!=) I love this film \(^.^)/



[samkom33]

HMMM! I must say this version is nice even though i dont understand a single word of chinese! hehe. The original english version have been one of my favorits for many years. but when i grew up listening to english music my brother played that i also didnt understand i learnd to like the melody (beat) im norwegian by the way :-)

[ThePregnancySlaves]

Someone is finishing a shift at a manacle-manufacturing plant right now. The cuffs & manacles they've produced will be utilized to restrain American citizens in transit to death camps fun by F.E.M.A.

[leo1234]

bring back some old memories.. both sweet and sad

[giocosathequeen]

Thanks!!!!!!!!!! I was looking for this song for a very long time!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!

[kenx213]

I remembering hearing this song on a tv show when i was 8 years old. I have always wondered who sang this song and what was it's name. Im so happy I finally found it. Thank You! =)

[realzey]

the best film I have ever seen... great!

[suckerdwsp316]

great song. great movie.

[MrReznor]

Just watched Chungking Express and was amazed by it! Loved this version of the song in the film so came straight here to find it!

[shiming1124]

hmm, wonder is it true that this song was also featured at one of the Singapore Mediacorp's chinese drama (1995) - 展支高飞?

please enlighten me =) ...

anyway, that drama was about the campus and hostel life within the National University of Singapore (NUS)... seem to be the drama featured both Faculty of Science and Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences much more than the other faculties.

a great inspiration for anyone wish to pursue university education .... bah.. ! =)

[LipsLikeSugar78]

Faye's version is even better than the original, IMO! ;) Love it.

[promcomp]

my work plays the same songs over and over again over the PA

one of them is the cranberries song of course in english

but it always make me think of faye wongs version cause im chinese.

[Misty9190]

I love both the LA LA Laaa parts middle and end...

[azederty]

love came the first in the world; in my heart there is enough place to Dolores version and to Faye Wong version; both artist; to both all my respect and my love

thus five stars*

[chazmeister1]

@azederty wow, your comment mentions 'five stars'. Remember those youtubing days...

[fufin20]

i love this song

[quiltbee]

very nice upload...i like this version very much...thank you..5*****

[ChuAnFanBoy]

Hey, I've finally finished my MV using this song. Unfortunately, the other account got suspended. So time to "rebuild."

[thriller]

I would almost agree but, I seem to gravitate to this version even as i just heard the cranberries, I kept having this girl's lyrics and voice in my head.

Truly masterful, anyone can sing but only a selected super talented few can do a cover that is better than the original

[ItzRachelLuv]

aww cute cantonese song but I still like the orignal cranberries irish band

[gnat2thamozzy]

so which song came first? the dreams by cranberries or faye wong? i also have childhood memories of someone telling me that the chinese version is the original and the cranberries took it from faye?

[hellioness]

The Cranberries version came first.

[maisylatif]

Faye also sings this in Mandarin... this girl has bags of talent,

LOVE all the versions she sung of Dreams :-)

[nike3272]

Is the lyric the same as the English one? I plan to make a video that you could say is a tribute to her.

[Arkady63]

Faye was just too adorable in Chungking Express.

Remember: Support your local hot Chinese chick.

[lovelesliehkfan]

ARKADY63,

Why are you so CHEAP?

[Arkady63]

What in the world do you mean?

[sbyrne1]

Great cover - even more so because they have a Asian woman singing it in an Irish accent in her own language :D

[farhanmizra]

Hi guys. I wonder, is this the only cantonese cover version of the Cranberries' "Dreams"? or, there's another one?

my little bro said, he liked the chinese version more than the Cranberries. something from his childhood memories. but he said he remembered in the chinese film, there was a mermaid character.

I've read Chungking Express's synopsis. it didn't mention any sort of mermaids.

So, I wonder what my little bro claimed is true or not (about another cantonese version in that mermaid film)

[DONG1020]

ahhh i know that mermaid film.. because i was the same as your little bro ..lol.. and then after chungking express. that song from childhood memories is by faye wong.. and the film is 'Mermaid Got Married' 1994. cheers :Ｐ

[farhanmizra]

ah, yes. the mystery is solved now. my lil bro admitted that he's wrong. he had watched again recently, mermaid got married', and admitted that, this song is NOT from that film.

so, really. faye wong's dream person song is from chungking express.

=)

[BafflinBook]

Oh my god!!!!

I think i got to know Faye Wong from "Mermaid Got Married"! Its one of the unforgetable movie i watched as a child: )

[chuckkilgoreII]

我爱王菲 ^_^

[yoshixalone]

cool

[vue21849]

Louise, This is the song, you left me with, to remember you by! And I will always think of you and how you effected my conscience -Kurt

[LouisKoo112345]

The group is "Cranberries" LOL

[Garganfunker]

I might be wrong but it's cantonese not chinese. Also i love Faye Wong :)

[CrypticThief]

Uh... cantonese is a dialect of chinese lol. Mandarin, Cantonese, Min, Woo... they are all Chinese... just different dialects.

[0BigBigJJ]

傻帽

[0BigBigJJ]

aaaa

[bandai1983]

Mmmm, Cranberries.

[TrespasserChic]

Beautiful... I love how she does the vocals at the end... Love the Cranberries, Faye is beautiful, and y'all should listen to Eternal Love with Jackie Chan... he has a lovely voice

[ians1174]

bellissima versione!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[19Valerie85]

wow what for a beautyful voice... i like this version more than the piece of the cranberries.

[19Valerie85]

what a shame that the "international" music just come from usa or uk...

[EuphrasieF]

Ireland hasn't been part of the UK for decades.

[19Valerie85]

sorry, don´t understand. i know that irland isn´t a part of uk.

[EuphrasieF]

Let me clarify. Ireland hasn't been part of the UK for decades, and that's where the Cranberries are from.

[19Valerie85]

you misapprehend me. What i want to say with my comment is that (for example) europeans mostly don´t know the singers and bands from countrys like china, japan or korea.even if they´re very good. the original of this song are from the Cranberries but it´s pity that THIS musician are not so populare in the world like many artist from usa or uk. you know what i mean? i have had phrase unclearly (english is not my language).

[Romperjet]

but americans *do* like asian artists. what about Dir en Grey and whats-his-name...Gackt? i don't know much international music myself, but i have seen a lot of young people listening to that kind of stuff (j-pop in particular).

[rainbowpencil27]

ew.

I am english and I know all about different artist from different parts of asia.

Stop being so narrow minded and stereotypical.

[stamie446827]

sorry ignore my comment teach me to read further down

[nnameo]

North Ireland is part of UK right now.

But I do hope North Ireland will no longer reunite with Ireland in the near future.

I'm not an Irish but really wish UK giveup North Ireland & Forkland Island. Because the lands were invaded by UK.

[Stopfief]

Haha. "Forkland Island".

[nnameo]

An Island belongs to Argentina . Not the uk's land.

[Stopfief]

I don't care about the Malvinas. I just laughed at "Forkland", which is wrong, and hilariously so.

[nnameo]

I don't care about the Falkland Islands or Forkland is wrong or right . I just know that shame on such an invasion tiny island like your country. Bully the weak is WRONG. U will be punished by your god.Ha...Ha...Ha...

INVADERS....HA...HA...HA...HA.­.. until now still robbery oil & murdered innocent people from the Middle East. SHAME ON YOU.

[Stopfief]

*I* will be punished by *my* god? Is this "god" not yours as well, then?

And if this god *is* yours too, are you not worried that this god might punish *you* for bad things that *your* country - whichever country you're from - did, even though they weren't your fault?

[nnameo]

Don't worry about me. I & my country didn't invade to other country. I don't trust the west so called god. I trust myself & don't believe those imagination rubbish that was used to controlled people's mind & behaviour like the west hypocrite. idiot.

[Stopfief]

I checked your name, and apparently you're from Christmas Island?

Well, of course your country hasn't invaded anyone. Your army consists of Santa Claus and his reindeer. Everyone likes them.

I don't see why you should get any of the reflected glory from that though, unless you are one of the elves making the presents.

[stamie446827]

i think he means that the song is orginally irish but i don't know what he means

?

[Fayenatic]

he means that very good artists outside the english speaking countries are not given recognation that they deserve

[Garl4nd]

Well, the singers outside the enlglish speaking countries don't get enough recognition inside the english countries, basically, but that doesn't mean they are under-appreciated. The Camberries probably don't win over Faye in China either

[oOshwansOo]

the MV sucks.. haha..

[maelpix]

is it in mandarin or cantonese

[stevedestiny]

cantonese

[maelpix]

méng shù rén is great

[stamie446827]

moong joong yun in pin yin no?

[Hittogamin]

FANTASTIC VERSION!

[cyrylla87]

Love this movie. To me, she sings it prettier than Dolores. It sounds better in chinese.

[Recce80]

cry that may be your opinion,but my opinion is,Nothing sounds better than Dolores in the original version,but this chinese version is beautiful also,respect the true beauty of where the song came from,not because Faye did a pretty cover...

[notoncemoreagain]

Sorry.... but the cranberries suck. The vocalist blows. Faye Wong has more musical talent in her little finger than that whole band. Listen to her original work, how much variety she has. Her voice is a trained one, and if you have an ear for music, then you can tell that.

[DarkKrystal]

That's a bit of an overstatement.

[esoterica1940]

That's funny that you say such things...Guess what..Faye went and worked with 2 of the members of the cranberries to help her produce this version of THEIR song that she did...I also believe those two men from the cranberries PLAYED THE MUSIC on this version with Faye. Faye also took the style of the cranberries singer and copied it and uses it all the time in her OWN songs..because it is a great style and wild wail with great vocal vibrato...so good that Faye thought it very worthy to COPY. !

[notoncemoreagain]

Her work speaks for itself. Her vocals are magnificent... and I still stand by my original statement. She did the song for a movie, so its not really her thinking it was WORTHY to copy. And no, she was a classically trained vocalist, she doesn't copy the CRANBERRIES singer all of the time. Have you ever listened to any of her original works? I have about 6 of her albums... so get the facts before you open your mouth just to try and attack me, because I think the cranberries suck..

[gianni422581]

buscaba esta version, excelente

[kennethgarrett]

It's nice but Nothing compares to Dolores O'Riordan by the Cranberries, her voice is uncomparable beautiful and incredible she is the best in all the world! I love you Dolores!

[riotiticaca]

No. Faye Wong's voice is better. You should listen to other songs. She has a divine voice.

[jjonasps]

excelente

[eoaftw]

she sang one in mandarin too

[drpepperisbad]

cool song, but damn that video is cheesy!

[yubz86]

any one know where i can find the chinese lyrics for this?

[stamie446827]

i have them sort off... they are the pronunciations off the words if you speak English and Chinese its no problem

[chimpychimps]

FAYE WONG IS A LEDGE! GREAT STUFF

[DarkKrystal]

She's a ledge? What? I'm assuming you meant legend? He he!

[ImaDreamer4eva]

hey! can i have this? i really like it. is there a english version of this? do you by any chance have that too? please send it to me, i really, really, really, want it

[EuphrasieF]

there is an english version, but by a different singer. search for "the cranberries".

[jghunlimited]

I like the harmony work. Very nice.

[UnitCallingGoAhead]

I like this and the Cranberries version.  The lyrics are beautiful in both.

[dudethedreamer]

wtfook is it about, not a bad song though

[onerevo]

It's great.

[EuphrasieF]

hen mei li! does anyone have the lyrics to this?

[stamie446827]

yes i d. do you want them ? i will send em you asap, do you want them in English? chinease. thats the one i have?

[EuphrasieF]

Chinese. And thank you for sending them to me.

[maifu04]

Thanks for this - I really like this song. And though the Cranberries were a good band. When it comes to this song - I think Faye Wong's a better version. *ducks tomatoes being thrown at her*

[RolandWN]

What is the original chinese title of this song?

[maifu04]

Subtract the 'person' from 'Dream Person' and what do you get?

....

'Dreams'

*gomen - i was bored*

[stamie446827]

mooong joong yun

[zapatobravo]

very very muy bueno

[dazaa999]

its cranberries not cramberries...*sighs*... and the song is called 'dreams'

[ThreeCountries]

How's your Chinese? Ben dan... :-)

[dazaa999]

Better then yours.. SEI CHUN!! ..your english sucks dickhead..and for the record.. its cantonese not chinese.. omg your so dumb!! xD

[loreleileigh]

better 'than' yours? 

[elvispresleyweeps]

Many still call Cantonese a dialect of the main Chinese language.

So it's still correct to call it Chinese, but just not specifying which one.

[loreleileigh]

Dream Person, in Chinese..

[Sishen]

Does anyone know who the actress in this video is?

[DonLi]

classic
