Favorite Jay Chou Song?

That's a toughie, especially since the guy's got a bunch of hit songs. I'm going to have to go with "Qing Tian/晴天." Everytime I hear it, I kind of get lost in the melody and the guitar tabs, plus anything bittersweet always draws me in. What about you?

Instead of putting in the music video for the song, I like this Lisa Loeb-esque chick. She's not the greatest singer, but she's got some range and a bit of sass in her voice which comes out more towards the second half of the song as she gets more comfortable.


And I'm throwing in this last performance of Anita Mui with Jacky Cheung because it's one of my favorites. I always get a little teary watching this because my mom told me at the time of this concert, Anita Mui was pretty sick already. Aside from her having to wear that heavy headdress on her under 100lb frame, you can tell that she barely has enough air to sing some of her verses--and the slight hand squeezes that Jacky Cheng gives her for support...sigh, it's too much.
