A fairly primitive recording of me singing a KTV version of 霍元甲 ("Huo Yuan Jia") by 周杰倫 (Jay Chou). Sound and video quality are pretty lousy -- I just aimed a digicam at my monitor and recorded my voice with the built in microphone -- no effects, proper mixing, or other processing.

My Chinese is also less than perfect, but hey, Chinese people sing plenty of English songs... what's wrong with a white guy trying to sing Chinese?

(And yes, I'm reading the lyrics from the screen in Chinese, just like I would at a real KTV.)

  • aha i can see the lyrics are off as the huohuohuo part all the repeating characters are the 1st 1 in the next line. but way to go that was actually very good.

  • Yes, I sang that way on purpose... it makes more sense lyrically and poetically. If you listen closely to the original version, Jay sings it the same way I do. It's just the lyrics printed in the liner notes and on the KTV video are wrong.

  • wow pretty coo,

    u're an American who living in China??

    how long u have been there???

    oh yah, i wanna hear u sing Mei Hua San Nong (梅花三弄)

    im looking forward from u

    thx~

  • Thanks for the comment... I spent 2 years in Taipei and now 6 months in Beijing. I'll try to learn the song you requested, and maybe post it here later!

  • ur chinese is gd! u sound much clearer than Jay Chou himself. very impressive voice too. keep going!

  • Thanks for the kind comments! Not so hard to have clearer pronunciation than Jay Chou, though... it would be more impressive if I could imitate his mumbling authentically, ha ha. :)

see all
