Angela Chang (張韶涵)

I have to admit that when I first heard some of Angela Chang's (張韶涵) songs, I didn't really like them...at first. After hearing them a couple more times, I started enjoy some of her music somewhat, so I went looking for some of her music videos.

When I listened to some more of her music, again, I didn't really like them at first, but after hearing them a couple of times, I started liking them some more.

When researching a little more about her, I was surprised that she emigrated to Canada for a while and attended school here, but then went back to Taiwan to persue her acting and singing career.

Here are a few songs of her's that I heard and liked the first time I heard it - either because I liked the melody of the lyrics or I liked the opening tune of the song. Keep in mind that YouTube appears to be slowly removing her music videos from the site so the videos below may or may not play. These and other vidoes by Angela Chang can be found at my Mandarin Music Videos group at YouTube

First, here is "Wonderland Flower" (夢裡花) (Meng Li Hua):



Next is "My Favorite" (
我的最愛) (Wo De Zui Ai):


Lastly, here is "Journey Of Love" (
愛情旅程) (Ai Qing Lu Cheng):

Angela rocks, I just started listening to her stuff. Her ballads are nice but realy love her faster stuff, like Aurora or C major.
