Here are the 5 most classic Jay Chou songs you’ve got to know before attending his 2020 “All-New Jay Chou Concert World Tour” in Malaysia!
1. 告白气球 Love Confession
From the album, Jay Chou’s Bedtime Stories, Love Confession is a diary of a beautiful experience of confessing your love to a lover. The confession balloon smiles as it floats across the streets of Paris and the Seine River, wooing the lover in the sweetest way.
2. 不該 Shouldn’t Be
The post-breakup sad ballad has garnered over 129 million views on Youtube. This reveals the thoughts of a broken-hearted lover who longs for the tides to change but desiring the spring flowers to bloom after the harsh winter.
3. 等你下課 Waiting For You
This number tells the story of a boy yearning for a high school crush but paralyzed by not being in the same college and a lack of courage to confess to her. He watches and protects her from a distance. Chou jokes, “This is to encourage my fans to study hard and get into the same school as their crushes!”
4. 聽見下雨的聲音 Rhythm Of The Rain
This metaphorical and poetic tune will give you all the feels. It is about innocence, passion and bitterness in young love.
5. 晴天 Sunny Day
This track dates back to the day in childhood this love story was born on a swing. Another sweet and wishful tune to remind us of an innocent puppy love we all once have.
