When we write new lyrics for other languages, we should take the characteristics of them into consideration. Perhaps this mandarin version lyrics is not so perfect; however, it is really good to fit the music and keep the characteristics of this language.
This version is better than the original in my opinion and MUUUCH better than the spanish version (I grew up listening to the spanish version because I'm from Mexico but I have to admit this song is kinda crappy in spanish )
Jasmine's voice is really close to the original. 看這世界 在你身邊 新的感覺 在你身邊 the translation is almost direct from the original one. But sounds weir as chinese. The Spanish version is really good specially the lyrics. And yes the guy has a Cantonese accent or try to emulate one to make him sounds cool, i guess, which a lot of singers do (and I just Hate it). 低su!
I kind of agree with the lyrics being horrible. I'm a pure chinese and all it says is look at the world, it looks pretty and I'm glad you're by my side. It lost the beauty of the amazement of seeing a whole new world.
even though i speak cantonese, i like the mandarin version better than the cantonese version... the singer sounds more smooth... the cantonese one, both girl n guy sounded very nasal
@PinkYachi I didn't say Chinese is not beautiful. I am Taiwanese so I understand Chinese. I mean the Chinese version of this song(the translation) is not beautiful.
Oh god....I hate chinese dubbers, I feel like they really kill the animations. (I'm chinese, and this is a terrible translation, at least they could get it to rhyme a bit better DX)
I second that. I'm Japanese, and I think there are certain songs that just weren't made for the language. I've heard some good slow songs in Japanese, but for the most part, we don't do so well on dubs of slow songs.
I like this version and by the way their voices seems so similar to the italian one!(my language^^)I love chinese..and that's why I'm studying it! XD lol...really nice!thx u for posting it! XD
this is pretty good =) i like aladdin's voice but i think it might've been better if they did 新的世界 instead cuz that would have been closer to "a whole new world"... just my opinion!
Okay so I tried to post the pinyin lyrics here for all of those who wanted it but it wouldn't fit, so if you'd like it I can send it to you or something. However I must caution that it's probably not all the way correct. I do speak Chinese, but I'm not quite fluent with it yet. But I got the gist of it, so um yeah...
yeah, cantonese is definitely choppier and more abrupt then mandarin is, and i understand/partially speak both languages, so i'm not being biased here, especially since speak mainly cantonese.
Lol probably coz there're no tones and that when sung you really gotta know the language enough to be able to get it. If they had subtitles you'll probably find that you actually understand quite a bit. A lot of it is beautiful poetry lyrics anyway.
Can someone please...PLEASE post the link of a high quality mp3 version of this one. I want it, because it sounds that beautiful, so again, if anyone has an mp3 version or what not, please pm me, I would appreciate it ^_^
aladdin is more aggressive in the english one. though i do like the end where they're talking about a "new feeling". for some reason it sounds dirty to me in mandarin
I like the english version better. In the english one aladdin's like "I CAN SHOW YOU THE WORLD" and in the mandarin one hes like "come look at the world"
If you don't like mandarin, why do you watch this? x__X I think mandarin/cantonese are very cool. I want to learn it, but I'm learning Japanese, French and English right now so that's enough for now xDD

It´s just sounds like ching chong chung chon che....something! Sorry, Í´m not a rasist or anything, sorry if it can out in a bad way, but it´s sounds funny, not mean to be stupid =) The singers are good though!
I noticed the lengthy debate about Cantonese vs. Mandarin and maybe it's just because I don't speak any Asian languages, but I can't even distinguish one from the other.

Mandarin is the national connecting language of China and Cantonese is widely spoken in Hong Kong, but it is the standard to know Mandarin. These two languages are quite different like Spanish and English for example. Mandarin has fewer tones than Cantonese making it sound more smooth in comparison to Cantonese with to outsiders may sound more harsh or with more rhythm.
Lol yes...they're different enough to be considered separate languages, similar like spanish and portuguese...but that's just my "unexpert" opinion of the matter. I speak neither dialects.;)
Well... the way I see it... yes I read the whole thing. It's not even a debate. It's one-sided pounding of a clearly linguistically trained person vs. non-linguistically trained person.
losgatos805 said it all in the beginning... in pure Linguistic sense Cantonese, Min, Mandarin, etc are "languages" based on the mutual intellegebility. However, when you add politics and all other worldly concerns, it effects legally whether one is a language or a dialect.
where can I find the whole lyrics?

Sayuri462, it`s pretty normal to not be able to understand the Mandarin in songs.
I`ve spoken Mandarin since I was little, and I`m still unable to interpret what they`re singing.
The reason for this is because the tones of the words get taken out, and you really only get the sounds of it.
Don`t fret, I`m sure you`re really good at Chinese. :D

Well... the way I see it... yes I read the whole thing. It's not even a debate. It's one-sided pounding of a clearly linguistically trained person vs. non-linguistically trained person.
losgatos805 said it all in the beginning... in pure Linguistic sense Cantonese, Min, Mandarin, etc are "languages" based on the mutual intellegebility. However, when you add politics and all other worldly concerns, it effects legally whether one is a language or a dialect.

其來源是先秦時代的口語,但往後各個時代的文人都學文言,即便他 們不但不說文言,是說各種不同的中國語言,但是他們可以透過書面 語溝通,清代人可以讀懂兩千年前漢代的文言,甚至在近代以前韓國 與日本使者是可以與中國官員書面溝通的,而韓語和日語顯然和任何 一種中國語言都截然不同,也不屬於同一語系。
