我一直很喜歡這首歌^^~

[Korleone]

[jessicahbu]

I hear this song like at least 5 times everytime chinese new year comes round

[glenjamz]

Running man got me here. Great tune!

[GenyaArikado]

It can't be more chinese than this !

[ioozx2]

Many people has forgotten about this song and the person..

[Linhua1000]

wey, le- wo kan yao de XIAO LINHUA, ni xi-huan duo-ta.... ZHONGHUO DE

[LordArithon]

I've loved this song since I first heard it as a kid in random Kung Fu movies about Huang Fei Hong. This song always gave me goosebumps...the melodies and sounds of the instruments are so beautiful...

[iamjetli]

great

[km1500]

`cantonese version sucks...

[Zimet15]

Mr. OtterBalls sent me

[omfgitsrotten]

FUZZY IS THIS U!??!?!?!

[shaunnie87]

6 douchebags.

[lichyman]

me encantaa!

[xtremekilla178]

@TheMartialartsJedi Yessir, you are correct. And the "A Man of Determination" is sung by Jackie Chan.

[elainevmusic]

@xtremekilla178 It is NOT sung by Jackie Chan. It is sung by George Lam. People often think it's Jackie Chan because he sang a song for the Mulan soundtrack (I'll Make a Man Out of You, Mandarin version), and people call it "Wong Fei Hung," but it's not. This song on this video is a Man of Determination, by George Lam.

[xtremekilla178]

@elainevmusic Yes, it is sung by Jackie Chan. Youtube it "A Man of Determination" by Jackie Chan. It's there.

[elainevmusic]

@xtremekilla178 He sings his own rendition (COVER) of it, live. He is not the original singer of it. George Lam is.

[xtremekilla178]

@elainevmusic Obviously that's what I meant.

si le gusta el honor y el esfuerzo de un luchador vean mi canal

[wlayothewarriorblack]

LA VERDAD AUNQUE NO ENTIENDA LA CANCION PUEDO SENTIR EL SIGNIFICADO QUE QE QUIERE TRASMETIR

[dkp1113]

name song plz ?

[WiktorsJourney]

The English Translation is as follows

Title: A Man Should Strengthen Himself

(Stanza 1)

Vigorous when facing the beatings of ten thousands heavy waves

Ardent just like the rays of the red sun

[9015172]

@WiktorsJourney thank you very much, appreciate it! And I have a request . Please, please, please translate the full song into English for people like me who love this song without knowing the exact meaning! The music tone and tempo and melody of this song is electrifying , please do us a favour, please translate it into English! Thank You very much!

[WiktorsJourney]

Having courage like forge iron and bones as hard as refined steel

Having lofty aspirations and excellent foresight

I worked extremely hard, aspiring to be a strong and courageous man (AKA Hero)

In order to become a hero, One should strive to become stronger everyday

An ardent man shines brighter than the sun

(Stanza 2)

Allowing the sky and sea to amass energy for me

To split heaven and part the earth (To create a new world) , to fight for my aspirations

[WiktorsJourney]

Watching the stature and grandure of jade coloured waves

at the same time watching the vastness jade coloured sky, let our noble spirit soar

I am a man and I must strive to strengthen myself.

Walking in firm steps and standing upright let us all aspire to be a pillar of the society, and to be a hero

Using our hundredfold warmth, to bring forth a thousandfold of brilliance

Be a hero

Being ardent and with strong courage

Shine brighter than the sun

[wlayothewarriorblack]

@WiktorsJourney gracias por el significado de la cancion .

[macedmatt]

man this really get me in the zone to practice my gong fu

[Samurailord]

If nyan cat got a 60 minute version, i want a 60 minute long version of this song :D Would be good for practicing my stances.. haha

[slade345]

I dont even know what he is saying...i dont even care. Epic song!

[Zer0kill001]

Wong Fei must be forshiped as a great hero in China yes?

[shadowseer92]

the video is not 1080 for safety reasons

[SuperMiwok]

@shadowseer92 I don't get it.

[mcbridemagic559]

i looking this song for long time, now i have time to sing it over and over again

[breakdancelover786]

sweet

[xJProductionsx]

I have no clue what they're saying but i love the sound of it ...can someone tell me what they're basically talking (=singing) about,please?

[wingwaabuddha]

@xJProductionsx well the name translates as "man of determination" and the song generally is about fighting and perservering. This is in Cantonese, the mandarin version is not as good, but im basing my translation off of the mandarin on. Damn its a good song.

[Keng02]

@xJProductionsx they singing about kicking ass

[kukomamasan]

@TheBipolarGemini im sure he did not care, he lived in that time.

True hero, dont look for fame or fortune lol, they just do it because its right.

[jia2001]

4 people got their ass kicked by WONG FEI HUNG

[Goku3388]

Wong Fei-Hung...singing about...Wong...Fei...Hung...Hu­h.

Yeah, thats fucking epic.

OUATIC is an amazing series, about an amazing Master. Jackie's voice is great here as well.

[DeathWithinTenSteps]

@Goku3388

this is sung by george lam.

jackie's made several versions of this song though.

[Goku3388]

@DeathWithinTenSteps Is it? I thought Lam did the theme for OUATIC 3, since I could swear they used the same one twice for the 1st and 2nd ones.

[DeathWithinTenSteps]

@DeathWithinTenSteps

yeah it is.

jackies versions are all in mandarin.

i thought this was jackie too up until i heard two of his renditions. When you hear jackies versions next to this one it kind of settles it. Hay man, do you know where to find the version that is used in "the last hero in china"? It would really help me out if you did.

Write me if youd like me to send a jackie version of the song.

And check out:

Peace&Love!

[peteryang92]

someone needs to dubstep this



[parithusnavis]

Wong Fei Hong --- U r my hero.. The no shadow kick, and ur lion dance is awesome...

[gkraz]

李小龙，李连杰，成龙，与Donny日元，与托尼贾会严重损害，­如果他们做了黑手党/团伙作为一个团队的成员。枪和致命的格斗技­能这些家伙将是完美的杀人机器你能想象吗？

translate: Bruce Lee, Jet Li, Jackie Chan, Donny Yen, & Tony Jaa would seriously do damage if they were mafia/gang affiliated as a team. With guns and lethal fighting skills these guys would be perfect killing machines can you imagine?

[MrDontstareitsrude]

I'm sadly from the UK and I prefer china & japan love their culture I hope I can live in either china or japan the women are far better and are loyal. Does anyone know of any decent samurai/jujutsu films or documentaries and please not the last samurai seen that too many times the only decent people in it are the japanese actors tom cruise sucks

[TruSchoolDefenda]

@MrDontstareitsrude Lone Wolf and Cub movie series are cool..as well as Shogun Assasin..Those are older ones.. Also Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman..or the older original just called Zatoichi.. That new "13 Assassins" movie looks amazingly intense. I gotta see that, it got good reviews too..

[wicNKWD37]

@MrDontstareitsrude Tom Cruise is awfull.

[eagelstone]

[Hekigyoku1]

@naruino123 George lam. he is wonderful and cool ")

[zhengpri]

古き良き清王朝！

蘇れ！

[Hekigyoku1]

Martial arts is not only physical, but mental, in fact 90% mental and only 10%physical, your going to live with your Martial arts all your live, not fight, its the part of every martial artist to avoid the fight but at the same time fight, this meaning control your thoughts, and know what to do when a danger to anyone is to come.

[LiangHuBBB]

Amazing song indeed.

[dawidjoseph05]

I go all out to make the country strong To be a good han/chinese/man To be a great hero In order to be a good han/chinese/man In order to be a great hero Every day you must push yourself The righteous spirit of a hero Is like the noonday sun Burns brighter than the sun Sea and sky yield their power for me to gather I will separate the heavens from the earth I will engage in creation itself Let me fight for my own destiny

[dawidjoseph05]

translate to english : Defiantly facing the ten thousand layered waves Defiantly facing insurmountable odds Burning with righteous spirit like this red sunlight Courage like forging iron With resolute courage Character as strong as stainless steel With an uncompromising character A mind a hundred thousand feet wide With the broadest mind A vision ten thousand miles long With a far-sighted vision I energetically and determinedly work towards my plan: I vow to achieve my ambition

[Buenyamintr]

[LtDozier]

I love this song. I hear it everyday. I'm learning Wing Chun Kung Fu and this song along with a ton of other songs from martial arts movies and other folk songs play all day while we train. It sets the mood and inspires me to train my hardest.

[schylerbrown]

[jotvmujoh]

I normally hold off commenting on youtube, but who could dislike this? 4 people who got beaten up by kung fu experts?

[Neanderthalcouzin]

@jotvmujoh hehe

[deadpalette]

Yes, i am baffled how some people can find negativity in this... haha. yes they probably were defeated by some Kung Fu masters for sure.

[BlizzardGamification]

[HelenofJukas]

[Hekigyoku1]

My most favorite sound in the world, I am Japanese but I love my chinese brothers, in the name of Buddha may we be reunited again arigato, the sun and moon taught me Martial arts, water and air tought me movement, stillness and speed tought me force.

By:Hekigyoku/Jasper Billie This song taught me how to use my knowledge. This goes for anyone.

[RussiaChina1]

@Hekigyoku1

i am chinese and i also respect my japanese brothers

[Hekigyoku1]

@RussiaChina1 I am most grateful for yourcontribution friend.

[RussiaChina1]

@Hekigyoku1

あなたの歓迎. i am not sure if that says your welcome in japanese or not but anyway i hope your country and ours will set aside our past and focus on our future. Let us asians unite

[Hekigyoku1]

@RussiaChina1 Arimasu *bow* your mind is pure, I use to think in the same way, your heart is strong in what you believe in, stay that way, and some day you will be a good leader. I know some people look over you instead at you. When you exert yourself into a crowd of people. be sure to show your actions to express what you think. We can be friends. I see something strong in you.

[RussiaChina1]

@Hekigyoku1

thank u for the kind words. people do look over me instead at me. and u my friend also has a good heart. let us one day meet and become leaders of our people

Thanks for sharing and what a beautiful scenic! Where is it from? It looks familiar.

[SchneiderVesperine]

[1996jay]

O.O my god what's that place?

[HighSmileezz]

@1996jay 5 element mountain from fobiden kingdom :P

[darknesspein]

i dont understand chinese but whatever its the first chinese song i ever heard hahaha

[viclord1991]

Chinese music owns! Shaolin power!

[Lohokleung]

This song is the original theme song, sung in Cantonese. The song is an old song from Canton 將軍令 "The General's Orders", and uses a lot of traditional Chinese music intruments to depict the victorious parade soldiers.

Thanks to the late James Wong (黃霑), this song has been given a new life with new lyrics.

[DEATHITSELF248]

why are you talking about nukes and guns on here isnt enough that people have to die by thoughs everyday my father died by that stuff and theres nothing good about it have you ever watched someone die nooooo my father died right infront of me by that peace is better than war and peace is surely something u cant learn

[ANDYC5357]

illest work.out song ever.

[matrix1240]

@ANDYC5357 "illest", I like that. I think it sounds more original than "that's tight" or "that's sick" or "off the chain". Thumbs up!

[Joanna96able]

HOW DO YOU DISLIKE THIS VIDEO!!!!

[flaktank]

@Joanna96able by being a racist prick

[canucksnation]

For my next MMA fight, this is going to be my entrance song

[qiankundanuoyi1]

@canucksnation Then u must use hong quan.

[HalfBreedMix]

@canucksnation Okay,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,you better be able to pull super-human skills out of your ass then. Only Jet li can hold up to this song. Not saying you aren't good, but this song is too Epic !

[NeTiNa19]

[MrTylerKoster]

The best way to download this as an mp3 is on that site mp3iifffy. Awesome site. GOOGLE mp3iifffy

[agentstick]

Hey, hey you!! Your kung fu is good, I show you the ultimate fist HAYAAAA!!! Love the old school voice overs

[hontarius]

@kuo982

Yeah i agree. Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD)

[AwesomePhil456]

why r u all talking bout nukes and weapons and strategy and all that on this video. go do this on COD or something

[kuo982]

lol anyone who says nukes owned are stupid. If a nuclear war ever happened, everyone is fucked, not just the countries that are hit.

Saying "Nuked owned" probably means you havent been out very much and played too much starcraft.

[ambucias]

@kuo982 hahahaha I love your comment =D

[Qcommander]

@ambucias lol comment ownage _0_ :p

[nibbles1637]

@kuo982

THANK YOU! It only takes 7 nuclear weapons to detonate all at once (anywhere in the world) in order to bring all of the earth's hydrogen to it's ignition point. Scary shit...

[WiktorsJourney]

@nibbles1637: Ehhh I strongly doubt it. It has been over 2000 nuclear bombs tests, and we are still here, living. By the what do you mean by "earth's hydrogen"? Most of earths hydrogen supply is in the water, and it's not going to burn, it's already burned (into water).

[nibbles1637]

@WiktorsJourney, cleaning out my inbox and I find this reply. 2000 tests but not simultaneously. I said it only takes 7 to detonate "simultaneously". And excuse me, I meant to say Nitrogen - 80% of the earth's atmosphere.

[superionfist]

or world of warcraft at least starcraft trains your logic

[HappyLappyNappy]

@kuo982 are you sure the one in starcraft is a nuke?

it could me a missile :S

[kuo982]

@HappyLappyNappy

Yes, bcuz the ghost says "nuclear launch detected" when he paints the red dot on the ground and shortly after...the nuke drops.

[HappyLappyNappy]

@kuo982 oh right... forgot sorry

[BlackShadowBS]

@kuo982 and COD :P

[jostpuur]

But if you have watched the Starship Troopers, then you have already been told why the "we just push a button"-strategy doesn't necessarily work :)

[purgatoryzero]

@jostpuur

"Put your hand on that wall!" - Sergeant Zim

Fantastic!

[liahma123]

forget about kung fu or any kind of martial art .the best weapon is the innovative thinking of human being.the explosion of nuclear bomb and the surgical strike of a smart bomb are much much deadly than punch or kick by martial artists.a real man who can protect his country from invasion is to invent super powerful weapons like nuclear bomb ,dead rays.....not kung fu.....wake up....smell the coffee...how can a human being jump 100 feet to the top of a roof...be realistic.

[surfme178]

@liahma123 lol nukes are for noobs! lol

[arsenalforever31]

yes but in order to be extremely effective one must be good at close quarters and ranged combat that means guns should also be respected

[Cartoonsoldier83]

I was trained in the army respect guns I meant in a oneonone fight guns have no place in a fight with fist

[smcneal057]

The most dangerous weapon is the human weapon. No gun, knife, sword, bow and arrow, or hand to hand combat technique is of any use to the human that knows how to wield such a weapon as himself or herself. It is going to always be the human being that is the greater weapon. That is why the self must be cultivated. If it is not then human being who wields such a weapon is bound for disaster.
