Best Songs Awards I

My personal opinion on some of the best songs I've heard.

Note that this list is just my own perception of what are best songs I've heard. Everyone taste is different. One man's meat may be another's poison.

This list has nothing to do with popularity (but of course it's more likely that I've heard the popular songs). If I come across this super "ulu" song that's extremely nice, it'll also be listed. And of course if I haven't heard a particular song before it wouldn't be up here... All song listed are not in ranking order.

Honorable Mentions are really great songs that are left out of the top 10 spot. (And I could properly switch any of them in for the top 10) It's just that too many good songs liao...hard to pick just 10 songs...

Summary: Not that hard to pick out the top 10. I know there's a lot of Fish songs up there, but all of them are just so good...couldn't leave them out. Jay also have lot of killer songs up there...If you swap in "Gui Ji" he'll have 3 songs on my top 10.

Lastly, You should definitely check out "Duan Dian" and "Wo De Cuo" if you haven't heard them before. These are songs are definitely the BEST song from the respective (less popular) artists...

Zhou Jie Lun - Ge Qian 搁浅

Summary: Spread out quite evenly. I think S.H.E and Li Hong definitely deserves the 4 spots combined. Haha. This year one is much harder to pick cause there's a lot of songs that just falls short slightly. If you listen to Mandarin Pop at all, all the songs in the top 10 should be quite familiar. Great songs that are famous.

In the Honorable Mentions are some great songs that are not famous...though. Check them out~

Yu Heng - Yi Ran Shi Peng You 依然是朋友,
Li Sheng Jie - Shou Fang Kai 手放开,
Sun Yan Zi - Yin Xing Ren 隐形人,
S.H.E - Bu Zuo Ni De Peng You 不作你的朋友

Summary: Haha. A mix of well known and 'ulu' songs... I still think S.H.E 8th Album is their best to date (excluding compilation)... almost wanted to put 3 songs from that album up there... In the end I slot one into the Honorable Mention.

I think a lot of people will disagree with me on this Top 10 List though. Some songs most people will think are quite ordinary, but I don't know why that I just love them a lot. And definitely check out "Qiao Duan" by this unknown Mainland singer. That song is PURPOSELY sing to imitate Jay's voice.

Summary: Don't have to say much...but I think duet are really dying nowadays. As in, not much good quality duets. "Hao Xin Fen Shou" is technically a "Canto & Mando" song combined together, but I still included it. And I bet you don't know the name of the female in "Bu De Bu Ai".
