邓丽君 vs 卓依婷 怀念老歌 - 月 亮 代 表 我 的 心 (The moon represent my heart)

This is my series called "邓丽君 vs 卓依婷: 怀念老歌" (Teresa Teng versus Timi Zhuo: Remembering the old songs), starring my two all-time idols. The purpose of this series is NOT to compare the two singers. I am not asking for you to vote on who you think sings better or who you like better. This is merely a series to appreciate both of the singers for who they are! Any criticisms in the comment box will be deleted.

Timi was 13 in this song from the 1994 album 怀念邓丽君金曲 (Remembering Teresa Teng's Golden Hits).

Lyrics:

你問我愛你有多深　
(ni wen wo ai ni you duo shen)
You ask me how deep I love you
我愛你有幾分
(wo ai ni you ji fen)
How much my love is
我的情也真　
(wo di qing ye zhen)
My feeling is real
我的愛也真　
(wo di ai ye zhen)
My love is real
月亮代表我的心
(yue liang dai biao wo di xin)
The Moon represents my heart
你問我愛你有多深　
(ni wen wo ai ni you duo shen)
You ask me how deep I love you
我愛你有幾分
(wo ai ni you ji fen)
How much my love is
我的情不移
(wo di qing bu yi)
My feeling does not waver
我的愛不變　
(wo di ai bu bian)
My love does not change
月亮代表我的心
(yue liang dai biao wo di xin)
The Moon represents my heart
輕輕的一個吻
(qing qing di yi ge wen)
A gentle kiss
已經打動我的心
(yi jing da dong wo di xin)
Is already enough to move my heart
深深的一段情　
(shen shen di yi duan qing)
A deep feeling
教我思念到如今
(jiao wo si nian dao ru jin)
Has caused me to think of you till now
你問我愛你有多深　
(ni wen wo ai ni you duo shen)
You ask me how deep I love you
我愛你有幾分
(wo ai ni you ji fen)
How much my love is
你去想一想
(ni qu xiang yi xiang)
You think about it
你去看一看　
(ni qu kan yi kan)
You go take a look
月亮代表我的心
(yue liang dai biao wo di xin )
The Moon represents my heart

If I were a singer, I will never sing Teresa's songs. Nobody can real compete with her. At the most, you are an close imitator. There is nobody can surpass her anyways.

I miss you Teresa!

[timizhuofan1]

I don't think it is about competition. I don't think anyone is trying to surpass the great Teresa Teng. Singing her song is a way to remember her and her golden hits. People don't sing Teresa's song to try to be better than her. I agree with you that Teresa is irreplacable. But Timi is not that bad either. I enjoy listening to and idolizing them both.

[wuchinren]

It seems TT covered many songs, too.

"月亮代表我的心" "何日君再來" "グッド・バイ・マイ・ラブ" "漫步人生路"

I thought she was the original singer of these songs before.

TT made herself seem like the original.

Her voice is so magic!!

[timizhuofan1]

I agree... I have always thought Teresa was the original singer of the so many songs as well.

Dear timizhoufan1,

I want to thank you for your hard work putting together all these good videos. I have listened to (and watched) quite a few of them this morning, and I've truly enjoyed. No doubt, I'm becoming not only Timi's but also your fans. To show my appreciation, I will leave you with a poem for TT and you. This is the original; I will post it somewhere else. But I will leave it here for a while. Hope it can help you gain some viewers. Best regards, Gevalian

[timizhuofan1]

Thank you very much! It's beautiful...

Teresa was like Elvis, once she recorded a song it became HER SONG. She was like Sinatra, her phrasing was perfect. She was an angel. Like the kids on YouTube who play her songs on the piano, anyone who covers her songs is open to criticism. When I listen Timi or especially Faye I sort of smile and laugh. Nice try kids, but ur not a Teresa. Maybe someday someone will but not now. This song uses a harmonica to create the sadness that Teresa was able to do with her voice. Not the same.

[Decentplayman]

I don't speak nor understand Mandarin but I love Teresa Teng ever since I am very young age and now I am about my mid 40' and I still enjoy her singing.....miss you TT.

[premtoshan]

yes, we can compare because my brain like to do it. Timi breathes with her nose, and Teresa with her pubic region. Only Teresa can make our heart calm down and sink to pubic region and sink sink into love ocean.  總之，我嚮往人歌合一的境界。

[diamondfrost3]

You cannot compare Teresa and Timi because they are both two different people and both very talented.

[tangr128]

@timizhuofan1

i agree with you 100%!

[mattmollysdad]

u r 17 years old, I'm thrilled that u r into Teresa. I'm happy u found a singer of your own generation to love. Hopefully she'll develop into a fine singer. re Teresa's significance, probably impossible to understand. Back in the 70s n on she sold 100 million albums... many to people who didn't even have a record player, just for her picture. She became the biggest selling artist in Japan. The same Japan that ruled Taiwan for 50 years and treated Chinese people like shit. They loved her.

[timizhuofan2]

I agree that Teresa has a unique angelic voice that is difficult for anybody to match. I love Teresa but I also love Timi not because she has Teresa's voice but because she has her own unique sweetness. Timi's favorite singer is Teresa Teng so she sings songs by Teresa to cherish and keep the songs alive. In this song, she is only 13 years old so it isn't fair to judge her voice in this song. Try listening to other songs she sang at an older age before drawing a conclusion. :-)

[LimBenSu]

As we get to the right age, our voice will reach the real sensitive & mature enigma, Timi has 2 wait until that age (which last oly a few years) to have her own unique flavour - Teresa sang & captivated during that rightful age.

[asupara4418]

To this song, Teresa has a unique and own world. Timi can reach Teresa's world, if steps up on her own music world, I think.

[mrshinyshoes]

Teresa had extraordinary voice control and excellent microphone technique. You can hardly hear her breathe as she begins a new line in the song. Add the sweet clarity of her voice, and it's unsurpassable.
