Open Mic Week 8 - You Are My Sunshine.

Greetings Steemit!



In one of my previous posts, I talked about the anti-social way of being social in China. How Chinese people prefer to socialise in private, whether it's for work, family, entertainment or just eating.

One place that always comes at the top of the list for every social gathering, is none other than Karaoke. The perfect place to gather with your friends, drink, eat, listening to music, or if you're daring, sing!

But, maybe you just want to sing a song or two, with one other person, perhaps booking a room at a Karaoke place might be overkill. Making the way for 'Mi Da mini K'!

This genius invention allows two people to sit in a sound proof booth, login with their WeChat ID and even record their performances!

I thought i'd take the opportunity to record something at the miniK booth today and make an accompanying video.

My song choice is "You Are My Sunshine". This song is immensely popular and is one of the most covered songs in popular music history. It first recorded in 1939 by the Pine Ridge Boys but the composer of the song is still often disputed.

In any case, the song was also recorded around the same time by the Rice Brothers Gang, Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell.

My version is a cover by a famous singer named Jane Zhang who came to notoriety through taking part in the 2005 Super Girl singing competition in China and coming 3rd. I hope you like my cover!


这是我第一次参加Open Mic,也是第一次传我的声音给全世界听,为了多多参与Steemit的活动,我不是专业的歌手,纯粹是为了好玩,希望为Steemit带来很好的宣传。这首歌You Are My Sunshine是我在咪哒KTV房录制的,它在国内万达等一些游戏厅里都有的玩,先录了声音,后期配了视频,希望你们喜欢哦!
