I'm in a very Jay Chou mood tonight. Sometimes I go aaaaages without listening to his stuff, and then other times it's the only thing I want to listen to.
"Fearless" (霍元甲) is totally my favourite of his songs. Probably my favourite video, too. This is a song for a film by the same title, which I haven't seen, but after looking it up, I'm kind of curious about it. Maybe I should watch it?

Other good songs:
公公偏頭痛 Eunuch with a Headache (I really appreciate his devotion to... whatever aesthetic he has going on here. "Mishmash of historical stuff", more or less. With... bouncing zombies!)
黃金甲 Golden Armour 本草綱目Chinese Herbal Manual (Oh my gosh, those dancing kids are so adorable!)
比較大的大提琴 A Bigger Cello 水手怕水 官方完整 Sailor Afraid of Water (AHH the chorus of this one is way too catchy, too bad I can only pronounce the English parts)
公主病 Princess Syndrome (Mate, wtf are you wearing, what is that pink ruffly monstrosity? Good song tho')
爺爺泡的茶 Grandpa's Tea ... Not gonna' lie, I'm not particularly interested in learning Mandarin Chinese, but it'd be kind of worth it to try just so that I could sing along with Jay Chou's songs, haha.
Oh, and here is the video for 菊花台 Chrysanthemum Terrace - I'm not crazy about the song (though it is pretty), but man, now I want to watch Curse of the Golden Flower again.
