Take heart my friend... some of us do know, study about China, listen to CRI every night and listen to the wax on turntable everyday. Zhou Xuan's singing and film achievements are beyond any words I have. Speaking of erhu, I listen to the Kao-hu solos arranged by Ng Kai Tong in, "The Butterflies" Concerto frequently. Suspect that I'll never get enough listening done in one lifetime. Peace profound.
夜上海 夜上海 Shanghai Nights Shanghai Nights 你是個不夜城 You're a city that never sleeps 華燈起 樂聲響 The pretty lights come on The music sounds 歌舞昇平 Singing and dancing in peace and harmony 只見她笑臉迎 One only sees her, smiling in welcome 誰知她內心苦悶 Who could have known she was feeling dejected on the inside 夜生活 都為了 Shanghai Nights It's all about 衣食住行 The clothes, the food, the board and the travel
hahha holy shit I've been looking for this song forever. I tried searching for every song title I thought it could have, then today I just said screw it 1920s shanghai song, and there it was. I guess I picked the correct decade.
The only time i would say kaiserreich causes brainrot is when you have to listen to these old chinese songs on repeat for multiple hours good song tough
I know it's acting, but it was a taste of the norm back in the day. She's just trying to make a living, like everyone else in the city at the time. And with a kid to feed, her line of work (and fight for survival) has a few good intentions...
YOu should all watch the movie "Center stage", with Maggie Cheung, which is the tragic life story of the actress you see in this video. Her name was Ruyan Lingyu, a Shanghai movie star at the time. As big as Greta Garbo.
Right now Shanghai is under the lockdown and everyone in Shanghai must do the covid test even after the midnight. This is the definition of "Sleepless Shanghai". haha
been searching for this song since i read a comic that features this song sang by chloe lan (protagonist of the comic). title of the comic: warlord hubby: ruling your world
Great compilation of old movie scenes to fit the song. Thanks for providing background history about Zhou Xuan and Ruan Lingyu. Where can we see Ruan Lingyu's silent movies? I think they would be hard to find them in America?

A realistic depiction of prostitution like this was impossible in Hollywood movies of the 1930s, even before the crackdown by censorship which got much more stringent in 1934.
This is truly a masterpiece!!!! a small point though, Chang xiangsi/Ye Shanghai doesn't have Ruan Ling in it - I believe your clips are from shennv...????
now that was fascinating, about how you made the video and the people involved, thanks ever so much! One of my favourite videos now, knowing that, so much more meaningful :)
This song is bit tragic in that era, This song also comes with bloody incident by japan's invasion shanghai in 30's era, several years after this song invented. This song also be part of battle of shanghai before shanghai taken down
Why did I have to be born in 2000😣 I don't belong in this generation!! My entire room is completely 1920s themed. My clothes hats makeup dresser bed everything in my room is either based from the decade 1900-1929 I have hats An purses from the 1920s An dresses from 1900-1909. Ugh I wish there was a time machine I need to go be in my era!!! Bc I do not fit in

I’ve had that happen to me before.
yes, obviously 1947 is a 1920s period

i hope i'm not the only one collecting songs for a romajuliette playlist :")
This is golden. Haha now I know what my grandparents and great grandparents grew up listening to ^_^
要学周璇唱也很难，因为现在已经是不同的时代了，像你说的唱出那时代的沧桑，那时代的哀怨和委屈，恐怕要那时代的人才能唱出的。
所以他那個年代才這麼紅？有鄧麗君紅嗎？
Agreed, Jim. She was a brilliant singer and actress with a warm heart, treating everyone with love. But her tragic end deeply saddened me...

作为一个中国人，我喜欢这个。这让我回到了女士们往往很珍贵的时代。
I find it interesting that the officer at 1:40 is with the KMT, rather than the CPC. I’m not sure why, but I do
If the film is from 1934, the KMT is a much larger presence than the CPC.
BE FITTING GOLDEN VOICE
the woman in the video is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
she killed herself a month after that movie shown was made
不是太好听了，是周旋唱得太好听了！哈哈哈
Who else came here because of kaiserreich?
很好歌。。。我来自尼泊尔 。。我爱中国和中国文话。。。

Great video
随着时代的“进步”，欣赏老歌尤其是周璇的歌的人也似乎越来越少了，谢谢你同意我的看法。要学得像周璇那样唱出那时代的沧桑，那时代的哀怨和委屈，恐怕也非周璇身经其事的人所能领略得到的吧。知音难得，再谢谢了。祝 好
这不是周璇唱的吗？
這首歌有什么悲怨的？1949年之后才悲怨。所以她才1957年就走了。不过幸好早走 免得后面还受折磨
哇，你真好

I have that same record !
@Jupitroid I know. I bought that film on DVD a few years back and watched it. Very good period piece.
Poor actress but at least his song is very beautiful and has been recognized since then
这几十年来听过不少模仿周璇的歌手，还没一个能与她可比拟的。
This is truly a masterpiece!!!! a small point though, Chang xiangsi/Ye Shanghai doesn't have Ruan Ling in it - I believe your clips are from shennv...????

Wow
Music that made my surroundings seem like 70’s/80’s . Love this very the muchie❤️
Actually this song is from 1947.
No 1930 or 1920
It was billions of years ago?
The song "Ye Shang Hai" was recorded in 1946, 11 years after the death of Ruan Lingyu.
Ruan Lingyu who was 25years old died.
Zhou Shaun was died in 1957~ she was 37 years old.
Wow you are right
Good vedio and singing... Is she really 阮玲玉, one of the movie stars in Shanghai of the 1930s?
Yes she is
This song is bit tragic in that era, This song also comes with bloody incident by japan's invasion shanghai in 30's era, several years after this song invented. This song also be part of battle of shanghai before shanghai taken down
no more voice like this any more
I wonder what the actors are doing today
ya,definitely
夜上海，夜上海，矮油矮油拔萝卜。
Not many Chinese can relate to this song anymore. The last ray of light before darkness.
原來這就是傳說中的阮玲玉，乍看有點像賈靜雯😀
拿來佐卡拉ok還不錯的樣子

what instrument is that at the end?
WARNING: Do not post any showgirl at this video. Chinese sounds so beautiful.
Sounds like Betty Boop.
This Chinese song is from 1947. It's crazy to say that
