Spotify just presented me with 棉子 song and I loved it! I am an American and have no idea what she is saying but it's so incredibly moving and beautiful. I took one semester of Chinese in university and am excited when I can pick out one or two words :) It's so beautiful. But, I wonder, do her words make complete sense without the tones?

@@thighsoverlife6920 Thanks, I've always wondered this but I don't understand it. The tones are so important to meaning. Do you just pick the words up from context then? You don't have to answer, I'm just thinking out loud. Best. Lore

@@LoreMIpsum-vs6dx Remember that tone is the emotion behind the word, this doesn’t affect the words meaning. Her pronunciation may sound a little off because like most artists, she drags out a word.

Trying to translate it to you guys, maybe not a very accurate one but you will get the idea I guess:) The workload is actually quite low as the first verse is repeated for 4 times XD 勇氣 (Meaning: Courage) 我愛你 無畏人海的擁擠 I love you, and I am dauntless to the crowd of people (explain: 人海= sea of human = crowd, 擁擠=crowded/cramped) 用盡餘生的勇氣 Using up the courage of my life 只為能靠近你 Just to get closer to you 哪怕一釐米 Even just a centimeter 愛上你 是我落下的險棋 Loving you is a risky move I played in the chess game 不懼歲月的更替 Not fearing the changing of ages 往後的朝夕 不論風雨 是你就足矣 In the sunset and sunrise afterwards, no matter it is windy or raining, it is good enough as you are here with me 看了太多情人分分合合 Seeing too many couples get into and out of a relationship 愛其實很脆弱 Love is actually very fragile 像温室裏的花朵 Just like flowers in a greenhouse *你這麼説 You said that 我其實很忐忑 Actually I am very apprehensive 若我沒有許過承諾 If I have never made promises 你還愛我嗎 Will you still love me? (explain: verse 2 is said by the singer's crush, so the singer is apprehensive) 聽夜空的流星 隕落的聲音 Listen, to the sound of the falling of shooting star in the night sky 這願望讓你聽 Let you listen to this wish (explain: the singer is praying to shooting stars for her wish, what would that be?😉) * 我愛你 無畏人海的擁擠 用盡餘生的勇氣 只為能靠近你 哪怕一釐米 愛上你 是我落下的險棋 不懼歲月的更替 往後的朝夕 不論風雨 是你就足矣 (Same as verse 1) * Repeat* 我愛你 無畏人海的擁擠 用盡餘生的勇氣 只為能靠近你 哪怕一釐米 愛上你 是我落下的險棋 不懼歲月的更替 往後的朝夕 不論風雨 是你就足矣 (Same as verse 1) 我愛你 無畏人海的擁擠 用盡餘生的勇氣 只為能靠近你 哪怕一釐米 愛上你 是我落下的險棋 不懼歲月的更替 往後的朝夕 不論風雨 是你就足矣 (Same as verse 1)
