This is the first page of mine that is dedicated to any form of music, and what motivated me to get my sorry ass off the couch is the people on the right. anyone who listens to chinese music at all would know them: MAYDAY (a.k.a wu yue tian).

i have nothing much to say about their music, you have to listen for yourself. if you like, you will, if you don't then i can't convince you.

ok, i lied, i do have something to say about their music. give me a minute to try to convert some of you, or maybe put it this way. let me tell you what i like about them and their songs.

what attracts me is how simple their songs are. simple, yet not simple. they are simple, in simple words, talking about everyday life, but in those simple words, they hold so much truth, so much that i feel like my mind is going to explode. i guess that is what they mean by "mind-blowing". and of course the power of ashin, the lead vocal. his voice is very normal; it's so simple and pure, there's no speaking of technique or skills. it is just singing at its purest, singing with a voice and a heart. and i don't know much about the technical part of making music, but they make me listen, listen very closely to their guitar, their bass, their drums, everything that completes "the sound".
