The music I'm going to talk about isn't classical music.
Ok, here's my views for 'Music at different country'
There's only one reason I'm so into KPOP ( Korean pop ) is that they always surprise me with their dance moves and songs. I think singers in Korea really play an crucial role in promoting their country's culture. For what I've seen on youtube's comments, many starting to get known of Korea because they love and support their favourite Kpop star. And ofcourse, I'm one of them who enjoys so much listening to their music.
My parents really hate me for loving Korean's music because they thought I, a Taiwanese, shouldn't pay too much attention for other country's fasion and music instead of listening to our own country's production of music. But to me, I have the right to decide what is good to hear and what is not and unfortunately for them, I think Kpop is much better than Tpop.
I've done a reserch on 'Music in other country' and I found some interesting facts.
In Taiwan, most singers are the solo-type. After seeing so many new album being published recently, I found most of the covers of solo-type albums are only singer with a very simple background which I think they got 0 attraction for me to find them good to listen to and interesting to know about them. Ofcourse there's group singers and Lollipop. I think they did a very good job. But when it come to Korea, I see too many of them..
In Singapore, many singers go to Taiwan at the end. Simply because Singapore is too small for them. Am I right on that point? In fact, Singapore is a small island. Although she's more sucessful compare with most of the country, despite of the land she has, it's too small and narrow for Singaporean singers. I've seen so many singers went to Taiwan but only a few of them became famous there. The person I'm talking is JJ Lin, who made a great sold-out for his latest album'100 days' in Taiwan.
In China, I only know Qi Xiao Fu. Don't know, don't care... Unlike Singapore, China's toooooooooo big. The singers there don't even have to go oversea. With 14 billions of people who could earn them lots of money, no reason they have got to promote their names and songs to other country.. So I don't know much about them.
In Malaysia, I see many singers, but I know none of them. Their music market is similar but smaller than Taiwan. So in the end, my views on them end up with the same as Taiwan, but somewhat poorer.. No offense. I love great music. It doesn't matter where the music from if the music is good to hear. But so far no songs in Malaysia had sucessfully caught my heart. I do feel sorry for that..
In Japan, they're as good as Korea. And somehow I think they're a bit better because the singers there do not get abusive words from their company and violence from their superior. I read, and probably will continue to read till the end of the world, of how bad the superior of many singers in Korea were. Fans aren't stupid, they're indeed incredibly smart and caring. I watched and read many comments and video on youtube and something shocked me. Famous singers like DBSK, Shinwha, H.O.T get beaten up by the head lead man of their working company. Their earns for album is low and work like a cow everyday just for the good of the company. But what they got behind their hard work is something cruel and inhuman. If you like to know more about it, go youtube and search SM entertainment.
So anyway, talking about Kpop, I shall describle it as 'fantastic done'! I'm sure many of you know the song 'Sorry sorry' from Super junior. I find many kpop music videos are always fill with amazing dance moves and unique music styles. Songs like 'Tell me your wish' from SNSD, 'Abracadabra' from brown eyed girl, 'Ring ding dong' from SHINee are good examples. You see? Why western people are also crazy about kpop? Because their country's singers don't dance! They only sing! I'm not saying they're lacking of dancing skill. In fact, many great dancers are from westen country. But so far from the music I watched on youtube, I seldom see western singers dance in their mv.
Dances and musics are one. With both, music is alive. Korean did a very good job in expressing their sense of fasion and style of music. And that's why I'm so in love with them.
Thanks for reading~! :)
