fact music
As in: music that is popular with young people in China, be it Western or Chinese. Anyone got any ideas? I assume the likes of U2 and Coldplay are big in the big cities.. my utterly unsubstantiated guess would be that there's a certain amount of fetishisation of Western music and style in Shanghai and Beijing, in the Universities, and so on.
And does anyone know if they have charts in China? I assume so, but couldn't find anything online.
But I did find some interesting stuff about Chinese rock music (http://web125.burns.kundenserver42....?option=com_content&task=view&id=24&Itemid=28) and a passing mention of 'C-pop'.
I ask because I'm writing some stuff for www.chinadialogue.net about music and climate change that will be aimed at young people. The Chris Martin hypocrisy issue (he professes to be green-fingered, but flies everywhere by private jet) is an obvious starting point, but I'm trying to find out if the Chinese yout dem are likely to have heard of Coldplay in the first place.
Merci beaucoup.
