China

Postby zill » Tue May 23, 2006 1:43 pm

I think I finally have my body back on Pacific Standard Time after a fascinating trip to Shanghai and Beijing. I know we all read about the economic boom in China but until you see it with your own eyes, trust me, you have no idea about the shit going on over there. It is incredible!

80’s China songs!

Payola$ - China Boys
David Bowie – China Girl
Men Without Hats – Living in China
Red Rockers – China
Japan – Visions of China
Cyndi Lauper - Hole In My Heart (All The Way To China)
Shop Assistants – Somewhere in China

And how could I forget la reine du fromage Canadien, Titsou……er……Mitsou – Les Chinois!

The Japanese are not Chinese. [;)][:D]

How about:
Japan - Communist China
Siouxsie and the Banshees - Hong Kong Garden
Baltimora - Chinese Restaurant (OK, not about China per se)
Romeo Void - Chinatown (ditto)

Zill, how fantastic that you went to China! I've only been to Hong Kong, and while it was fascinating, I realize it's not the real China. I would LOVE to explore China in greater depth and witness the dizzying contrast of old and new that's taking place. You'll have to tell us all about it. Can you share some pictures?
