月亮代表我的心 - The Moonlight Represents my Heart

In celebration of the lift on the ban on Youtube in China this week, I offer you, the timeless, boundary less Teresa Teng rendition of "月亮代表我的心 = The Moonlight Represents my Heart"

Read about Teresa Teng (邓丽君 )at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teresa_Teng


Her songs were so popular in China that they bypassed mainland censorship, and it was said that "by day, Deng Xiaoping rules China, but by night, Deng Lijun rules."[1]

Which I translate as: 白天,邓小平规则中,但在夜间,邓丽君规则
[1]Culture and Customs of Taiwan


I May have celebrated too early, youtube seems blocked again - used it all for about an hour or so. I wish I could be enlightened on this...
