Breakup, lost love, Failed Relationship: Chinese Songs to listen or sing to in 2025 

A breakup is a challenging time in our lives, often bringing up emotions like devastation, anger, and bitterness. It's not something that can be overcome in just a day or two. Here are some songs to listen to, or sing along with, that can help release those emotions and aid in the healing process through music. 

I regret breaking up, i missed you: 

1) Xiang Nian Ni Xiang Wo-Eric Chou 想念你想我-周兴哲

Di Qiu Mo Sheng Ren 地球陌生人 Earth Stranger-張哲瀚 Zhehan Zhang

張哲瀚-地球陌生人 Zhehan Zhang- Earth Stranger pinyin, english lyrics 

Zhang Zhehan new song,  "Earth Stranger" has a message: It reminds us that we are strangers to the Earth, and urges us to engage more deeply and authentically with life.

In his description of his song, he says: 

To the earth, we may just be a stranger. Thinking you understand the world, thinking you can see through people's hearts, thinking you can see into their eyes, is it because you are unwilling to admit that "I am confused" or is it because you are in a cocoon of arrogance? Or maybe because of individual loneliness, one hides oneself in a corner, hiding in the pain of everyday life.

Ignorance is the beginning of endless steps. Open every window, knock on every door, communicate with the forests, trees, mountains, rivers and streams, communicate with the natural space, the world and the human beings, communicate with the imperfection, loss, fragility and real pain, take more risks, extend the time of barefoot, watch more sunsets, because to the earth, we are strangers.

English, pinyin lyrics: Wu You Nian -Shan YiChun, Aska Yang 无忧·念- 单依纯 杨宗纬 (无忧渡 Wu You Du. The Demon Hunter's Romance OST》

 醉梦初醒 叹平生 荒芜尘世间

彼岸 幻真幻灭 是缘是劫

潘成 (皮卡潘) - 請你別走太快 Pan Cheng( Pika Pan)- (My heart move move) Please Don't Leave Too Fast lyrics

English translation, pinyin lyrics : "My heart Move Move" or Qing Ni Bie Zou Tai Kuai-Pan Cheng, Pika Pan

潘成 (皮卡潘) - 請你別走太快




I came across this very popular song on tiktok/douyin, and many know it as the song with the lyrics "My heart move move'. Because it's a chinese rap song, there are quite a lot of lyrics to it. What a challenge!

The song is about feeling overwhelmed, betrayed, and lonely, with love that once brought joy now turning into pain and confusion. Despite understanding that one shouldn't rely too heavily on love, they struggle to let go, haunted by memories and unable to cry. 

Other Similar Douyin/ Tik Tok Song are:

Lu RunZe- Bie Rang Ai Tiao Luo (Don't let love fade)
Ai BiLi- Yi Ge Ren Xiang Zhe Yi Ge Ren  (One person thinking about one other person)

愛是風中的花朵總不停在搖擺
Ài shì fēng zhōng de huāduǒ zǒng bù tíng zài yáobǎi 
(Love is a flower in the wind that keeps swaying)

(Your breathing is the same frequency as me)

Ivy AiWei: Ma Ma Hu Hu (A Haphazard Adventure) 馬馬虎虎-艾薇Ivy lyrics

Ma Ma Hu Hu- Ivy Ai Wei ( A Haphazard Adventure) English, pinyin lyrics

Ivy Ai Wei new song "Ma Ma Hu Hu" literally translated as "mediocre", is a battle song that explores the difficulties and confusion she faced during her growth: whether facing the pressure of striving for perfection or questioning whether we are satisfied with the status quo, each of us is struggling to become the ideal "adult".

The song reflects on the bittersweet realization of growing up. She said that she once saw adulthood as distant and daunting but now finds herself unintentionally stepping into that role. Along the way, although she has experienced both moments of effort and recognition, there are times of confusion and mediocrity. Despite not being entirely dissatisfied or indifferent, she has come to understand—she has become the kind of adults she used to observe as a child.

Yi Er San-Hebe Tien/ Tian Fu Zhen (一二三 · 田馥甄) lyrics

 Hebe Tien- Yi Er San, Tian Fu Zhen (一二三 · 田馥甄) pinyin, chinese, english lyrics. Trending today 

Singer Hebe Tien released her latest single "One Two Three" as a warm-up for her "Tian Diao" Live in Life wild mini-tour. Describing the track, Hebe shared that it transforms simple desires into a light and breezy melody, aiming to inspire listeners to release their burdens and move forward with ease.

She revealed that the song was inspired by her belief that "life should be lightweight." With a blend of simplicity, warmth, and openness, she infused the piece with a gentle strength—captured in the lyric, "singing one, two, three, we keep moving forward together." Hebe expressed that the song serves as both encouragement and a personal reminder as she enters the second half of her life: to let go of what’s unnecessary, treasure the meaningful moments, and walk ahead with lightness in her heart

也許是陽光在臉上 或是你在身旁
Yěxǔ shì yángguāng zài liǎn shàng huò shì nǐ zài shēn páng

Monsieur Motown- Tizzy Bac (Mao Dun Zai のChun Tian 矛盾仔の春天 ) lyrics

 Tizzy Bac- Mao Dun Zai de Chun Tian (Monsieur Motown ) English, Chinese, pinyin lyrics

Tizzy Bac's new song is Number Four on this week's chart. This song is all about accepting imperfections, especially contradictory conduct. The description of the MV sums it all 

Humans have built-in contradictions, they want to move forward but automatically move backwards. Your imperfect contradictions, I smile and understand the taste of it with love. After going around in circles, we finally understand each other and keep pace with each other. Hand in hand, we walk towards a happy ending

你好嗎？這些年 當我不能陪在你的身邊
Nǐ hǎo ma? Zhèxiē nián dāng wǒ bùnéng péi zài nǐ de shēnbiān 
(Are you OK? These years when I can't be with you)

April 2025 Chinese Music Chart- 3rd Week April (A new beginning)

 

As mentioned in my previous post, I’m making a small but meaningful change to keep things fresh and more in tune with today’s music trends. With streaming now being the main way people listen to music, it’s clear that the way songs rise in popularity has shifted too. So, starting this week, the chart I share will be based on data from an online music platform.

This week’s chart is led by Yan Ren Zhong, who takes the spotlight with two songs. Interestingly, both tracks are part of the original soundtracks for Chinese dramas — one from Such a Good Love and the other from Best Thing. New entries on the chart also include songs by Tizzy Bac and Sharon Kwan.  


Top 10 Chinese Songs 2025- 3rd Week April

1. 颜人中-值得爱 （OST）
Yan Ren Zhong- Zhi De Ai

2. 盧廣仲-愚人節快樂
Crowd Lu Guang Zhong- Yu Ren Jie Kuai Le 

3. 蔡佩轩- Canon In Love
Cai Pei Xuan- Canon In Love

You Yi Zhong Yi Han Jiao Wo Men- Tian Yuan; Yu Dong Ran; 有一种遗憾叫我们- 田园， 于冬然

You Yi Zhong Yi Han Jiao Wo Men,  (有一种遗憾叫我们), "There is a type of regret and it's called "US"" English, pinyin lyrics

This is a trending song this week, and there are a few versions of the same song. The two most popular ones on douyin are by Tian Yuan and Yu Dong Ran. This piece reflects the deep emotional struggle of someone caught between love and incompatibility. It tells the story of a relationship filled with warmth that ultimately fades, and the painful realization that love alone isn't enough. Despite knowing early on that they weren't meant to be, he/she can't let go. And therefore, "we" now equals regret.

David Tao has a new song and this time he covered Teresa Teng's "Thousands of Words", "Qian Yan Wan Yu". He said, "Every time I decide whether to cover a song, my goal is to bring new life and a new look to the song. In fact, the version you hear now was completed by me in the past six months."

The description of the MV explains that the MV features a conference room that can accommodate 60 men and women, and staged a "love debate battle" in a humorous and comedic way. Both men and women hurriedly pressed the speaking bell to compete for the right to speak, wanting to tell all their thousands of words to David Tao, the chairman of the meeting who played the role of arbitratior.
