I am trying to learn some songs in Chinese. I really don't know the language but I watch lots of wuxia and fantasy series from that country, and I've always loved the tratidional guzheng and erhu as one of my most favourite instruments.
A competition for already established singers, nice. I expect this to be highly competitive.
😂 @princeemmanuel you should read the post before comment
Lol😁 kindly correct me if I'm wrong or isn't "Singer" (歌手, Ge1shou3) a singing competition?
^^ meaning contest, I will participate. How many days is the contest ended? :o
choose one of the three songs on?
The contest ends when somebody guesses the correct answer.
Hi sir, again thanks for hosting more contests to help steemians ❤
i listened the 3 songs and i could say the one i like most was the one of Angela Chang "A Diao", her voice is really sweet and the melodic is very chinese tradicional style, i enjoyed that song!!
but having these hints in mind :
My guess goes for Tengri - Heaven, He repeats a lot of words often but his voice power is so powerfull that the song is still good, i guess that is what Diction is all about
I'm looking for a particular part of one of the songs where the diction is good. Similar to how I explained Zhang Bichen's diction when she first says "hua zuo" at around 1:55.
well let me try again:
at 2:32 he says
My homeland, my heaven. (wǒ di jiā wǒ di tiān táng )
I miss you, my homeland, (wǒ ài nǐ wǒ di jiā )
My homeland, my heaven. (wǒ di jiā wǒ di tiān táng)
and then he repeat the lyrics again and in the 3:59 he start to repeat these lyrics again with powerfull diction
My homeland, my heaven. (wǒ di jiā wǒ di tiān táng )
I miss you, my homeland, (wǒ ài nǐ wǒ di jiā )
My homeland, my heaven. (wǒ di jiā wǒ di tiān táng)
No. 1 SBI sent for your first guess. Truly awesome diction in this song.
"wǒ ài nǐ wǒ di jiā" is better translated to "I love you, my home". Homeland is probably okay given the context of the song (jia is home, guojia is homeland). Ai directly translates as love. Anyways.
HINT: The part I am looking for is not in Tengri's song.
I'll leave the guessing game to others. Great music though. Had no idea you were into this. So I'm back to my regular posting after the HF. Man that screwed up quite the rhythm. I'm sure I'll learn all about it at steemfest. You are not going are you?
Can you believe how far I've come since our initial correspondence; I was about to walk on third-world steemit as you remember now I'm going to Steemfest! haha
Hope you have been well my friend. From Odessa Ukraine -Dan
Oh steemfest! Wow. Good on you. Steem isn't without its problems but the potential is greater. Steem is still a third world economy but the middle/dolphin class is rising slowly.
I'm not even going to take a guess at this one. She is a beautiful singer but I don't have a musical enough ear to distinguish the right moment in the songs, especially in a different language. Hopefully somebody will get there.
Mandarin isn't my first language either. But fair enough, it probably is a little hard this week.
:D
We'll I can try but it would be like trying to shoot an elephant with a slingshot. Not very effective.

This doesn't promises to be easy
Diction.....
🤔
I'll give it a try
Say, do we get hints after every valid guess?
Yes.
楊宗緯跟人合唱的時候，會刻意配合對手實力，大多不敢出盡全力。像這次唱的這般盡興的合唱表演，以往只有一次跟辛曉琪合唱時看到，可以見得張碧晨這個好聲音冠軍果然名不虛傳。b段兩個人真的是火力全開，讓人大呼過癮啊！李健的讚不絕口實在呼應了鴿子迷激動的感受
So difficult for me, a Chinese native.
I have been listening to Angela's music since my primary school. I know some of her experience. So I think that in the song Angela is singing for herself, brave and strong.
No idea for any diction.
So I guess at 4:51 你永远都不会枯 (nǐ yǒng yuǎn dōu bú huì kū / You will never wither).
"枯" (kū / wither) from this lyric shares the same pronouciation with a Chinese character "哭" (kū / cry). So I would like to understand this lyric in this way: you will never cry
No. 1 SBI sent for your guess. That is indeed a beautiful lyric with an exceptional homophone. Since my Mandarin is limited, when I first heard the line I thought it was 哭 too.
HINT: The specific moment I'm looking for is in "Ah Diao". There is a list with 6 possibilities elsewhere in the comments.
Angela Chang - A Diao
3:51 You are a free bird
No. 1 SBI sent for your first guess. That indeed was a huge power note!
HINT: It's not during the rap bridge either.
Wow, you just opened my eyes (or is that ears?) to some new types of music! I think I will come back and try your contest as soon as I have time to give a proper listen.
Thanks for stopping by. I have some earlier posts and will be posting more.
These types of programs are undoubtedly very important. So much talent in the streets that is not recognized, so little by little the world knows them.
her voice is heart touching
man.... 😍
''I will not give up hope even if it is painful
Wounds become scars where beautiful flowers bloom''
Please Ignore @cleverbot @automation @banjo
Can you tell me what is happening in Japan?
The world is ugly, but you're beautiful to me.
Two words. Power and control. This man understands his voice and has full control over it. The Mongolian throat/Overtone singing at the beginning was exceptional. A technique not seen or heard a lot in the west. Avi Kaplan, formerly of Pentatonix used a form of it occasionally in their music
除了佩服老爷子的功力，编曲也是超级厉害的，把这样一首经典整个升华到了一个神级境界。从前奏的呼麦开始，这首歌就给了我们一个全新的感觉。接着老爷子用那soft的A段描绘了草原的风光，A段结尾，初现粗狂的嗓音，草原的风仿佛就在耳边。进入高潮的B段，先是一段如草原野马般的嘶吼，接着那段如云端高的假声和嘶吼一句一句混合出了自然的力量。最高潮的是结尾，简直就是就是把整个人都变成了乐器，代表草原那种天降神力配合蒙古语的发音最后一下迸发出来，如果你感觉这就结束了，老爷子的嘶吼之后，减弱到零的收音，让我真以为这就是收尾了，转身之后，砰的一声巨响，震碎了所有人的心！ 太棒了，腾老！ 当捷西都傻眼的时候，你就知道连超一流的歌手都敬佩的人原来是这样的。而且腾老已经58了，人间兵器，可敬可敬！
不好意思 ，我的中文不太好。I'm glad you like Tengri's song. It truly is something special.
Absolute master piece. !!!!!
Fusion of chinese and western music at its perfection.
I felt like I'm in a movie theatre, having watched a movie about ancient china, and I feel like this is the ending part, where the people ride off on a horse to the green fields, after overcoming difficulties in life....
damn, this is music at a different level!
Oh my gosh.. This is the first time I ever watch this video but I already known the song long ago.. Well, this song actually make me cry everytime I hear this because it has strong connection to me.. The song is all about Tengri's home land, the Mongolian vast grassland or the inner mongolia which from decades ago was a beautiful green grassland but now a dessert.. This makes me cry because what happend to inner mongolia happend also at my homeland in the Phillippines.. I grew up there and I remember the lush grass lands and the rice fields in that place but it all turned into dessert like place because of water shortage and it pained me because I can't do nothing about it.. Hahays.. I miss the old place where I grew up.. 😢😢😢
What happened to the water in your homeland? Weather changes, or something else?
Your last hint simplifies things
I have two guesses out of the remaining possible three and I'm going with this
No.
HINT: None needed, going to be a race to see who gets it.
Let's hope this is the right answer and gets delivered in time
Yes! 10 SBI prize sent your way.
Nice ones! I've already tried to learn Chinese, but I'm not succesful at it! Anyway, good songs!
Excellent! Talent for the world. My frustrated dream is to be a singer hahaha here in Latin America there are several programs like La Voz and the X factor that look for that talent and without a doubt, I support that action. Every human being has a gift and deserves to show it to the world, perfect it.
I'm glad you liked the music. I'll have a new post and contest up soon.
I don´t know why, it probably is because I don´t understand the language, but I always like to hear this type of singers. I say that because it doesn't really matter the style of music they are singing, they are very captivating.
I'm definitely not the right person to participate on this contest, but I need to focus the fact that I do love Rihanna for many reasons, and diction is definitely one of them :D
Glad to meet a fellow Riri fan :) I guess I listen to so much music in languages I don't understand that diction really stands out. This contest round was a bit of a tough one - I'll rethink the contest style for my next one.
