Cantopop vs. Mandopop
 
What do you prefer, or rather, what makes up a bigger percentage of your library?

Mandarin for me...I can understand some of it, but not Cantonese. I also tend to prefer the trends of Taiwanese artists over HK artists, with some notable exceptions (Karen Mok....OH MY GOD KAREN MOK!!!!)

Sorry, mods, I thought I was in the polls subforum when I posted this. >_<;

Mandopop

I rarely listen to cantopop...Something about the language when sung is a bit weird for me~ But I do like some of the classics in cantopop

Mandopop for sure :yes

Ngl, that's how I feel, too. I mean, I listen to some stuff in Cantonese, but Mandarin dominates my Chinese music folder for sure.

Mandopop. Cantopop is too accented for my liking, especially in ballads. Plus I've been exposed more to Mandopop.

Canto / Mando.. it is really hard question, mandarin chinese sounds a little bit better for my ears, but my most favourite artists sing in cantonese (Joey, Karen etc.)
so i cant choose ..i just prefer chinese music :)

Twinkle ! 23rd May 2010 09:26 PM

if jolin is a Mando so it's my favorite then :D

I always think people speaking/singing in Cantonese are fighting....

PoetGirl 24th May 2010 12:11 PM

both equally!

mobius 28th May 2010 04:03 AM

I like them both equally.

I understand Mandarin music more than Cantonese music though.

alternarist 28th May 2010 04:52 AM

mandopop. but one thing i dont really like about mandopop is that their lyrics usually dont make any sense.

AyumiBest 28th May 2010 10:58 AM

Mandopop, it doesn't seem as boring as Cantopop in my opinion. Sad thing is, I understand Cantonese better than Mandarin. LOL
