I’d like to talk about a song I heard the other day on YouTube. It’s a remix version of Your Tears (完全是瞎编的), which is a Spanish song. I clicked this video completely out of curiosity, ‘cause I recognized the names of the singers, a male and female, but I didn’t know they could speak Spanish, so I just clicked. But it turned out it’s a cover song. And the amazing thing about it is that it combines lyrics from more than 30 songs, and it just sounded so harmonious. I mean, every piece of lyrics and melody just fit in so well with other. If you haven’t heard about those 30 songs, you wouldn’t know it’s a cover song.
Those two singers recorded this song in their studio, what impressed me the most is their singing voice. It’s magnetic, powerful and actually pretty sweet. And they looked lovely as well, when they were singing the song, they just kept looking into each other’s eyes, with a sweet smile on their faces. So the result of the interaction and chemistry between those two singers are magical.
I downloaded this song to my phone, and I would listen to it from time to time, so lately my friends always hear me humming the melody of the song. And interestingly, as a result, they are also familiar with the tunes now.
