WFMU's Beware of the Blog: Hole in My Heart All the Way To



ZhouxuanMP3s: Zhou Qisheng - 'The Model' (thanks, Kenny G) and Zhou Xuan - 'One's Young Life Like a Flower' (courtesy of Brian Turner)

Chinese cover of Kraftwerk's 'The Model' (MP3), intro includes a chorus of auto engine samples.

Brian Turner submits this Zhou Xuan MP3 of incredibly beautiful sounds from a collection of great 1940's performances for assorted Shanghai films. Xuan was a beloved, successful Chinese icon, considered one of the country's premiere golden voices over the course of more than 100 films. Some interesting English translations of song titles on the disc: 'Servant Girl Hongniang Is Ender Interrogation With Torture', 'Gather Area Nuts', and 'A Flower Inserted In Garment's Button Whole'.
