TIMID

Taiwanese indie music I dig featuring indie music that a Taiwanese-American girl loves. I'm timid but I love talking music.

黃玠 (Dadado Huang)’s 我可以 (I can)  has a pretty funny MV with hilarious dance moves. I really just love so many of his songs.

好樂團 GoodBand’s  我把我的青春給你  (I gave my youth to you) is so good, so pure. I love her voice and the simplicity of the song. This hits kind of close to home right now, which is why I have it on repeat.

Loving this simple background in Frandé 法蘭黛 ‘s 我只是你的愛人  (I am just your lover), I have recently been into single frames of subtle movements.

The lyric video for 原子邦妮 AstroBunny’s new song  四月天 (A day in April) shows the Taipei metro trip through a Maokong gondola ride. I took this same ride this past summer. There is nothing like the feeling of being above all this vast green forest. I love Taiwan scenery.

This song also sounds more unlike their usual ones, but it’s a nice change!

Recently the topic of happiness has crossed my mind. This song by  Crispy脆樂團 (Crispy) captures the question “你快樂嗎?” (Are you happy?) well.

Cannot listen to 家 (Home) by 陳綺貞 (Cheer Chen) without crying when I get homesick. 

輕輕放開你的手 漫漫長路繼續走 自己才是自己的家 想到這裡 怎麼我又哭了呢

Singing along to 永無島 (Neverland) by 安妮朵拉

有沒有一個永無島 人們在那裡永遠不會變老  你去不去  不去是不是只因為你愛這裡  還是你愛你漸漸變老的身體

大象體操 (Elephant Gym) and audience rocking out to Finger. As I’m making this post, I’m supposed to be studying for my first final in grad school.

不想與你過了這樣的一生 for  2016政大廣告營

Seems pretty popular for Mandarin songs to have contemporary dance in their music videos.

Special Taichung version of 放個假 (Take a holiday) by 黃玠. 

Posting this on the first Friday of my last ever winter break.

My first 鄭宜農 song was 大雨城市 (City of Rain) and to think I might see her in New York is so exciting! This is also such a beautiful MV.

江松霖’s raw performance of 要變成全世界最勇敢的人 (Becoming the world’s most courageous person)

我要變成全世界最勇敢的人 相信一切安排都是最好的路
