For Saturday, June 11: Xing Fu De Bao Zheng (The Promise of Happiness)

Vic Chou is a boy band member.  He sings in Mandarin (in case you are wondering what dialect you are listening to!) and he is Taiwanese.  He also is an actor.  I think he might be kind of a big deal but I don't know for sure since I can't read, speak, or understand Chinese and all it's various dialects! ;) 
So here's the deal.  I feel completely uninspired for today's song and one of my unspoken goals for this 365 experiment is to get at least one song from each letter of the alphabet on there.  So I googled "songs that start with x" and all the ones from rappers, etc were going to obviously be really inappropriate and disgusting so I focused in on the Chinese ones!  :) That's how I landed on Vic Chou. 
He has a very nice voice and from watching the video he tells a good story in his songs.  I have absolutely NO CLUE what the song is about because when I googled the lyrics they all came up mandarin so...I kinda have to go by the video and his demeanor to guess that in the song he is telling of a promise for happiness with this girl and he keeps hoping and he keeps leaving her messages but she never comes and yet he still holds on to the promise of happiness.  ??  Watch the video for yourself and tell me what you see! 
Ha!  A song that starts with "x".  Happy day!

Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
