Thumbs up Recommend some Cpop/rock... ^^

Since i'm into asian music so much, i've decided after listening to japanese and korean music, that it's time for some chinese music!

I don't know any chinese artist/band

Are there good pop/rock/r'n'b chinese/taiwanese bands/artists? help me please and let me spread my crazy music taste

thanks in advance.

For rock I definitely recommend Super VC. Their music is so good.

Pop wise, Angela Zhang, Sa Ding Ding, Carrchy, Ivana Wong and Tizzy Bac.

Shin (band) from Taiwan used to have really good rock-like music, but they've disbanded now
Y2J - they're a new group from Taiwan, and their music is very rock! must try them out!
Wang Lee Hom - his music is very varied, so he does everything, R&B most of the time
Jay Chou - his music is very varied also, but I think he experiments more
Jolin Tsai - her earlier albums used to be more pop, but now they're getting to be dance music
Amei Zhang - she's a classic, her earlier albums broke many records in Taiwan, but nowadays she've been going along with the trend of Cpop, meaningless lyrics and a good beat
[n]Angela Zhang[/B] - i really love her latest album, Ang 5.0, there's a variety of ballads and happy songs
Cherry Boom - they're kinda unknown, but i really love the 2 albums they've released, most of the songs are rock and pop-rock
BY2 - they're a new twin duo group, and their debut album is very good, there's many pop songs
Jam Hsiao - he's a new artist from Taiwan, his voice is just very smoky?
FIR - they're like "THE BAND" in Taiwan, they're absolutely amazing, and they have great songs
Elva Hsiao - not related to Jam, but her music earlier was more ballads and many are classics at karaoke bars, nowadays, her songs are very pop

but don't worry, of course i'll provide videos XD

Shin - I always thought this song was very cool!


Y2J - their voices together is just <333


Wang Lee Hom - such a sweet ballad, he also write his own lyrics and make the music


Jay Chou - he have a lot of rap like songs


Jolin Tsai - more modern i guess?


Amei Zhang - one of the golden classic from her


Angela Zhang - just addicted to this song


Cherry Boom - this is like a ballad XD


BY2 - their songs can be addicting


Jam Hsiao - one of his faster songs, his ballads are great too!


FIR - their songs have so much variety, i can just go on and on about them!


Elva Hsiao - one of my favorite pop song from her


if you need more reference~ i can always show more!

^ Omg thanks! I finally know how 8D
That song really has some weird lyrics, huh.
Luckily, he only has this one song with strange lyrics.
I only put JJ cos pommy already put the rest out! (^-*)/
Mayday's really good as well. They've been around for some time.
Show Luo has some nice hiphopdancepop-ish songs (which I'm not familiar with) but it's mostly his personality people go for.

And this song was a huuuuuuuugggeee hit when it came out (a few years back):

It's the only song by Guang Liang I know ^^

So, what/who do you like? Then we can show you more of the same type.
YAY I CAN EMBED THANKS POMMY!<3

haha, but that song have the worst/best (however you want to look at it) engrish out there XD
but the beat is so addicting
and you're welcomed

oo, mayday is amazing, like the all-time rock band in taiwan
omg i love this ballad from them <3
one of my favorite!, the intro is kinda long >_<
taiwan seem to have more fresher artists, just imo

this is probably the only song i like from Show
i love songs with a nice beat

also Claire Guo
her ballads are pretty nice, just that she always looked like a poodle to me

haha i just want to show maemi like every cpop video ever made..but i'll take it slow, but yeah, i listen to more of a variety in cpop when compared to jpop, so i still know a thing or two ...CPOP FOREVER! <3
