Da jia hao, Hello everyone!
Im sure most people won't know any chinese actors outside Jackie Chan or Jet Li. Just the same, Im sure you won't know many Chinese singers.
But one Chinese singer im sure everyone knows is Faye because she sings so good that japanese company Square paid her to sing in Final Fantasy.
If I played a song she sings im sure you'd shrug, but if I played the Final Fantasy song im sure people would know what I mean.
She's been my favorate singer long before she sang for Square, so here is a sound bite with the FF Square song, another song in Mandarin, another song in Cantonese. Im sure a bunch of people can't tell she's Chinese from her FF song because she sings EVEN English so perfectly compared to her Chinese, but Square asked her to sing some English, so she did.
Anyway here is the bite I did:

English part --> For all my english speaking friends.
Mandarin.Ch --> MasterAkumaMatata
Cantonese.Ch --> JCTango
The quality is really low since I compressed it. She sounds alot better.
Have fun!
