Chinese Country
Occassionally Mr. Wu will play a cd in the car. There is one song that the girls love, with a rolicking country and western sounding melody. Of course the lyrics are all in Chinese, so we can't understand them, but the music is fun. I've asked Mr. Wu what they're saying, but either he doesn't understand my question or he doesn't understand the words of the song either. He showed me on his electronic translater the word "cowboy", which made me laugh. Yes, it is cowboy music. Then he put a second word into the translater, and in English it was "busyness." I laughed again! I guess China's country music is cowboy busyness! That's certainly how it sounds.
