Hua Hua (Hua Chenyu's nickname ) can do much more than you think. His music has no boundaries. His voice can change to so many tones just like water blending into music. He is a great composer too. His creative ability is amazing. He is a pioneer of innovative music against the mainstream music. He is the top performer in China nowadays. The most versatile and unique artist I've ever seen. He is a treasure for you to discover. Keep on reacting to him then you'll understand. Thanks !
Hua himself said: Actually all the songs I sang during the show “Singer” are about my personal growth and the mountains I scaled one after another to get there; “Wukong” was my descending; “ Child” was my maturation; “ Nunchucks” was my arrogance; “ I Don’t Care” was my disdain; “ Flammable and Explosive”, what do you want from me; “ Mountain and Sea” my disappointment after I opened up to the world; “ Fake Monk” struggling myself, saving myself; “ The Ordinary Road” I clenched my teeth to face myself; “ I Am What I Am” I found myself; and now, what is missing is the final song “Shout” after I scaled on top of a mountain to surpass myself. ”
He is on a different level of game in this “competition” ， I dont mean his singing techniques，all of the singers on the show are fantastic（or they will not be invited in the first place） ，I meant he took the oppotunity and made it a process to explore his journey of life （self actualization？）. I always wondered if his recent music style change has anything to do with this process...
@@yni005 He basically created an album of songs around his life just for this competition. That is impressive! I think he grew a lot from the experience on Singer and his music changed both from his studies (he is always listening and learning) and from how he matured as a person.
@@yni005 I have the same feeling. I think that he went through the self-actualization process and the music after that reflects the change. New World describes his feeling after ascending to "the mountaintop of dreams" alone after the Singer show (In the song Chasing Dreams with Childlike Heart, he and his friends from the Super Boy Competition have sung about scaling the highest mountain to chase their dream, so mountaintop is definitely a symbol of dreams.) Arrival is about reaching a spiritually peaceful state. Jackdaw Boy probably describes his struggle with his previous agent (aka his mentor/agent since his debut) (I found the lyrics very telling since he had some hard time in the second half of last year.) Bullfighting describes the constant struggles one may face in life and the courage to stand up and fight again. I heard that there is going to be a new song called "I Have Grown Up" in his new album, but I don't know if it is confirmed. So these songs definitely reflect his life journey.
I just LOVE to see people’s facial expression when they watch Huachenyu for the first time and don’t know what’s coming. I promise it won’t take too long for your guys to be completely impressed by his talents. He will never fail to surprise you.
A bit of his background info: HUA Chenyu (HUA is a family name), aka Hua Hua, 29 years old, is a singer-songwriter/composer in China. He is well known for his powerful vocals, dramatic stage performance and talents in composing. Hua is the most versatile artist that I have never seen. He plays piano, guitar, flute, drum...etc. He has very solid classical background but he is a rock star who can also do rap, pop, ballad, opera, musical....etc. Huahua has the power of making any songs his own! He re-arranged pretty much all the songs he sang on the "Singer 2018" stage. He's just incredibly versatile & full of artistry and creativity!!! He is super popular in China. In his Mars Concert in Beijing Bird’s Nest Stadium on 8 & 9 September 2018 (each show catered for 90,000 people), all tickets were sold out in less than 2 minutes.And all the tickets (40,000 )of his Mars concert in this year sold out in only 3 seconds!! Hua refused to make the so called "mainstream music", he said if he made music just because the audiences like it that way then his music wouldn't be 'pure'. His songs are not the catchy, easy-to-sing-along type (and he insists on doing it this way), yet people surprisingly love it. He has created his own music market, his own brand.
Wow , you scroll and pick a real gem today! Thank you for your nice reaction and welcome to Hua Chenyu music world. The journey of discover his music is full of surprises as he is super versatile. He is now the TOP performer in China which every performance is always excited and unique. He is an interesting artist to discover as his personality and artistry level is insane, he deliver a story each time, his music has no boundaries and the way he portrays emotions is different. I always thought he is a philosopher that is so down to earth and offstage, he choose to live so simple, low profile and childlike. He is a music genius that work very hard, he oftens not eating for two days prior to his performances to keep his throat clean, that's how his way of taking serious action towards music. Please check out all his performances on Singer 2018 in order as it's a story line, please check out "Child" and " Nunchucks" for starts. Newly subscribed!!!
These songs are awesome! He is now the most popular singer in China. He is very talented and unique. Please do some reaction videos of his performance.
Please check out the below links from the channel of "Hua Chenyu MarsTranslation". “Child” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s14WlqrOTF8.html “Nunchucks” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lLs-0A0yEuA.html
@@Huamazing Where do you get the misleading information? I know they split from original team as got different opinions and they do lots of volunteers work for all overseas Martians and were in the original team. They are the original translation team, which force to leave the team. The original team is the one who steal all their efforts. Let's dont talk about this topic under reactor comment section.
@@Huamazing Go check the playlist on MarsTranslation channel which I think is fair to give credit to all others translation channel, the channel has some own translation job too. I saw they compiles others channel under their playlists, I feel like we should also appreciate another version of translations, not only the team that promoting themselves, they are no perfect translation as Chinese is so poetry and is hard to be 100% translated.
Congratulations! You just discovered the most versatile young singer/composer in Asia! In fact, I even haven't found a similar artist who is as versatile as him in western yet... "Wukong/Qi Tian" is his original song which uses a unique chord progression to compose, half western and half Chinese style. He is a talented singer-songwriter!!!😎😎😎 More Hua Chenyu please!!! He's too versatile that this song only shows one side of him. He always performs a different style on the SINGER 2018's stage. Just for your choices, if you like pure ROCK N ROLL, check out his original song "I don't care"(ep7), to know how high he can hit and his voice control, check out "Child"(ep5). Or something even mixed more genre than "Equal to Heaven"? "Nunchucks" would be the one amazed you!!!
"Singer" is a Chinese competition show for established stars where voting is done by a specially selected 500 member audience. The musically discerning group is age balanced between young and old for each of the 14 episodes. Each member votes for three favorite performances of that episode. Seven singers compete on each show and the one with the least votes is kicked off. Because it focuses on singing, a performer can use no more than two of their own compositions. Hua Chen Yu took second place behind Jessie J. in the 2018 series. The show is well run with great lighting, cinematography, musical direction and superb background singers and musicians.
Congratulations on finding a great singer. Hua Chenyu is so talented and so unique.This musical trip is perfect and I hope you move on.You're going to get a lot of surprises. From your new subscribers.😘
The fact that you teared up during the ending part is making me 100% sure that you’ll be crying if you see Hua Chenyu’s - Child performance at Singer 2018. Still my most favourite performance of his, it is THAT good. You should definitely check this video out someday!
Really enjoyed your reaction to this mind-blowing performance ❤️ As many said before, Hua is one of a kind and besides his amazing talent people fell in love with his really cute and shy off-stage persona. I would like to suggest Fake Monk, is another performance he did on the Singer show where he took extreme risks and expressed the message he wanted even though the audience that is voting could misunderstand his performance.
I really enjoyed your reaction to Hua Chenyu! I discovered him earlier this year (I was only into Kpop before too) and was so captivated by him since then. He is my favorite solo male singer of all time. He is so versatile that you will be amazed each time. Off stage, he was very easy-going, child-like in the earlier days but even then he was very wise beyond his age. Overall, I think he is very intelligent and very dedicated when it comes to music. Please react to more of Hua Hua (we fans like to call his nickname and it means flower flower--it is a casual/intimate form of calling someone by repeating the words twice and it has similar pronunciation as his last name too).
I really enjoyed your reaction. This performance got me totaly hooked on him, I must have looked just like you two watching it. I have never found Another artist that is as intetesting as him. He will blow your mind with every performance. There simply isn't anyone like him, he has created his own style and he rockes it. Hope you react more to him, you will not be dissapointed. Ordinary path is a great song to react to next m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GjV0NF_LccU.html
The lyrics and the story behind them were so inspiring and meaningful. ‘Equal to Heaven’ was related to the epic story of Monkey King (Sun Wukong as his name) fighting against evil forces , seeking truth and Buddhist scriptures in a classical novel called Journey to the West. At the beginning of the story, he called himself ‘Great Sage Equal to Heaven’ leading a group of monkeys located in Flower and Fruit Mountain and dared to challenge the authority of Jade emperor of heaven. Then he got defeated and trapped under Five-Finger Mountain transforming from fingers of Buddha. After 500 years, Tang Monk of Tang Dynasty came to save him, so Monkey King and other 2 guys helped Tang Monk fight against evil forces , seek truth and finally obtained the Buddhist scriptures. It was a really moving and inspiring story.
You have only scratched the surface with this performance by Hua and I highly, highly recommend the others from Singer 2018 as they form a song cycle. All of his songs are in Chinese but have been translated so just do a search that includes the words "English Sub" so that you can follow along.
One more thing to mention about his talent is that he "rewrote" recompose the song given to him in ONLY one night before the show - he generally goes almost without ANY sleep in that 24 hours and yet his voice did not deteriorate at all!
This trully is a remarkable song. I'd even say epic if you know the lyrics and the background story...Love the music，love the lyrics，I doubt I'd live to see anyone sing this better than Hua.
Hi, I'm so happy to see you react to Hua Chenyu. He is such an amazing versatile artist. Every song you'll see from him brings something new and different. His vocals always fit the song and his performances are emotional and intense. Please react to Child, Fake Monk, I Don't Care and for a start Nunchucks, all from The Singer 2018 show. Please keep reacting to him, you will love him :-) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PzLaO7Q54y4.html
Some informative background 😉Huahua is super talented & powerful in stage performances, he's cute n shy in person, he is adorkable n can be nerdy (he's a "stay at home" kind of guy), n he LOVES to eat, food lures him LOL! He can be so unique that his fans give him the nickname E.T. hence his fandom is named as Martian. His fans also give him other nicknames such as Big brother, Lord vocal, Demon king, and he loves to tease his fans. He's young at heart like a big kid (he said so himself, think he's like Peter Pan), though he's humble n down to earth (even though his family is super rich, he already own houses n drive sport car during school days). And he's spiritual with deep thoughts like a philosopher, he also does meditation, a tarot card reader and a monk read that he's a spiritual man like a hermit, he sort of agrees n then declares he ever thought of becoming a monk back then when he finished high school, n all the fans were shocked LOL 😂🌸🌸
Wow, you picked a jewel. His personality is just as unique as his magnetic performances. He is one you will want to see all his performances to see all his versatilities and talent in composing. There will be suggestions to watch Fake Monk. It may be better if you see three or four of his other performances to warm up to this one. It's one of his best artistry in performance, but very dark. Until you get to know Hua a little better, then you will understand this performance. Most of his performance is more impactful with Eng Sub. Although it's hard to follow sometimes, because some of songs are fast paced. But even if you don't you can still feel the impact of his emotions just through his performance. Hope you continue the journey to "Mars" and become his Martians (his fan).
@@FrenchCancan That's usually how it goes watching Hua. His performance stands alone. Glad you found him and hope you continue to react to him. If you go to eng sub, follow the performances on Singer 2018. starting on episode 4.
Yes, please do all his performances from the Singer 2018. This one is ep.4 and his first appearance on the show so it's perfect to do them in sequence as they tell a bigger story of Hua.
Funny that you mentioned about all the competitors must’ve felt because ever since Hua Chenyu joined the competition (he was a substitute, appear in the 4th week) everyone stepped out of their comfort zone, everyone tried to step up their game. Everyone was trying to be unique and memorable. Hua Chenyu threatened them that way, and he wasn’t even trying to win the competition. He just wanted to let the audiences know every story he tried to tell in every of his performances. Can you react to Hua Chenyu - Nunchuks at Singer 2018 next please? Nunchuks is a song by Jay Chou, famous singer in china. This song is so iconic, it is a hardcore rock rap song. Hua Chenyu’s cover of the song is sooo surprising. Mind you, it isn’t his original song but he absolutely did the song justice. Please react to this!
Locals call him "Wha-Wha." React to him singing my fav "Child" and your words, your knees, your soul will leave your body and go on a journey with him in "Fake Monk!" Hands down best performance of a man at his keyboard. Nothing like I have ever heard or experienced before!
OMGGG You guys just hit a REAL GEM!! I'm so happy to see you guys reacting to one of the most talented singer!!!!! Hua Chenyu do composing as well as rearranging songs to suit his own unique style. I would LOVEEE to see you guys react to 'NUNCHUCKS' and 'CHILD' from The Singer 2018 show. Y'all ain't seeing nothing yet from Hua Chenyu. The link to 'Nunchucks': ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tmeFDVlIRkM.html The link to 'Child': ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WyZ4Wl14Guc.html Hope to see more reaction of Hua Chenyu from you!!!!!!
Most everybody starts with "Nunchucks" -- one of the songs he did in Singer 2018. Almost every song he did on that show is so react-able...full of surprises. Jessie J was in the same competition by the way.
@Divine Saint hello Divine Saint I know but the list of his qualities is so long that I kept it short , since I know that other people will mention this too, thanks for your support for Hua Hua I am reading your comments a lot where do you live? I am living in Canada
Hua Chenyu is amazing! You have to watch his other performances on Singer and also listen to his other music! He is a genius when it comes to composing/writing/rewriting & performing! His live shows are also amazing! One of the many many songs of his I love is “Giant Dear” please do more reactions! Also , if y’all haven’t already listen to and responded to Dimash Kudaibergen, He is an absolute must! He’s considered the best vocalist in the world! I will be seeing him live in New York in December! I would be surprised if y’all haven’t heard of him, I’m about to subscribe to your channel and see! I look forward to seeing more reactions to Hua Hua and to Dimash!
I enjoyed watching your facial expressions as you listened to Hua Chenyu. I like this song too... May I request my favorite of his "Nunchucks"? It's a bit lighter than this song but has more surprises in it... Thanks.
Thank you! HCY is so talented. Please check out “Child” from the Singer show. Also, “King and Beggar” from the “Mars” concert to see his charming personality. Another incredible song by him is “Salt of the Earth”, also part of his “Mars” concert. The lyrics of these songs are very poetic and beautiful.
Two newborn Martians!! Thank you for your reaction. You know you won BiG at roulette, right? Hua Chenyu is an UNBELIEVABLY talented, charismatic, unique artist whose stage presence rivals anyone. He is like Bowie, Adam Lambert, Sia and Bruce Lee all in one. A musical genius with an irresistible, childlike personality and a strange, magnetic beauty. So happy that you have decided to react to more of his work. Please react to NUNCHUCKS next - you will be blown away.
Great reaction... check out his performances of Nunchucks from Singer 2018 and Nanping Evening Bell from The Next .. both have mixed genres and are amazing 👍👍
Hi, this was my first time watching your video and I like your reaction! Pls react on him more because he is really a hardworking and talented singer-songwriter (I'm a fan of him since 2013 competition)
Thank you! We now have a very long list of recommendations, so there's a good chance we'll watch Hua Chenyu again. We actually can't wait to see (and hear!) more! 💕
Hi Briar and Juju, nice reaction. Please react more to Hua, you will fall in love more and more. I personally think you better go by the order of the show, because Hua made it's like his journey of life. This "Equal To Heaven" is his birth, next would be "Child" as his childhood phase. But of course any song will be okay, because you can see how versatile he is, his stage performance can be so different each time but at the same time you can still feel his same soul in it. Here is link for "Child" if you decide to do this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KKA2WJunOpg.html
Have you watched Dimash yet? If not, try Singer 2017, SOS. Dimash is now a 25 year old heartthrob that can sing like no one else on this planet, his range is 6 Octaves. Dimash is Kazakh and what I love about him besides his singing is that he hs still so humble and the man genunly loves his fans whom he calls DEARS. He was 22 when he performed SOS, his first performance on Singer. It wasn't long before fan clubs started springing up all over the world. I feel so honored to be alive to see him reaching superstar status. His full name is Dimash Kudaibergen.
@@FrenchCancan A lot of Dimash fans are Hua fans too. In my eyes Dimash is number one and Hua next. Dimash is world famous now and a Superstar. His concerts in China also sold out. SO there is room in many of us to love them both. They are a lot a like in many ways. Dimash contracted in China, twice. I do not know if he still is or not. Dimash is in Russia now performing. A lot of Chinese Dears still travel to his concerts and he still fly's to China to perform special events or sing a song for a T.V. Series there. Because he started there, he has a special place in his heart for his Chinese Dears.
dears, like it. I cannot wait to see your reaction to ashes from fireworks. His typical song but give me lots feeling when i am alone and hopeless. Let me know what you got🤗
Hi French Cancan, i am personally also like the talent and quality of Hua Chenyu. I hereby recommend one of the songs from Hua Chenyu link below Song: Aliens @3-z4 This song was sung at the opening of the talent search for female singers from various countries which was held by one television in China. I hope you enjoy it.
I know you have been doing kpop idols. Hua Chenyu belongs to an elite group of singers that reactors love to follow for the following reasons: 1. You are amazed at all their performances. 2. You get chills and goosebumps. 3. They have huge followings and these are diehard fans. The few singers that met the above criteria are: *Male* 1. Dimash 2. Hua Chenyu *Female* 1. Sohyang 2. Morissette In all honesty, I only watch reactions to Sohyang because she is my Queen. Queen of vocals and Queen of the heart. Hope you will react to her soon. Arirang Alone will be a good introduction to her.

Lyrics: Sun and moon are recurring Who's commanded Qi-Tian To let go of gratitude and grudges? Love and hate strung together Couldn't escape from the fingertips Under the vast sky may I ask: What are life, death, or karma? Wherefore was I born? Why have you brought me forth yet will not answer my doubts? You said: "Become a Buddha at this instant" If I became a Buddha would there be no devils in this world? Who can tell me? Look, the sandstorm blocked the Sun and enveloped the world in dust Above Heaven's Palace The moon was no different than that above Mount Hua-Guo I won my first battle with glory and fame, yet you tried to catch me with inescapable nets You won without honor, I couldn't dodge hidden arrows So many daybreaks had slipped away unnoticed The ending and truth remained elusive as I trod forward Fragrance of peach blossoms persisted in my dreams Yet it couldn't resist your trickery The truth of black and white is waiting for the daybreak Can it directly write down your natural talent (of trickery)? Daggers and blades out of sheath Dragons and phoenixes collapsed as kylins fell Flight of jade steps shattered at the swing of my golden cudgel (Qi-Tian's weapon) There was no chance for regret. Over thousand years and in this Universe, all that have left is my golden cudgel Why had my victories ended in loneliness Whose name was whispered by wind in my dreams I said "Excuse me" but there's no way I'd admit defeat Treading across the Southern Heaven, I swore upon mountains and rivers Till the end of the world Who was young and wild Who can give me a belief Spring had not ended, the moon was shining I wanted to be there Unfortunately the wind blew early, I missed my chance The dawn was breaking The constricting headhand had not been forged I could still smile Love, hate, worries and fear fogged my eyes Thunders of thousands of soldiers shook the world But they still could not confine me Millions of heavenly warriors advanced and spread Don't even think about my surrender You cannot decide the victor of this battle The Heaven's palace was turned upside down with one swing of my cudgel To hell with fate I choose my own destiny I want these mountains to move away from my inroads I want these waters to part to make my returning path I want heaven and earth to yield to me The world shattered at the tip of my cudgel You picked up a flower with a smile, the sky was filled with dusk clouds I've cried, laughed, loved, hated, obsessed and went mad What has left that I could not let go of? I want these absurd rules to end in as a farce One day, under Heaven and Earth the stone heart (of Qi-Tian) was caught in a paradox The so called Nothingness IS the exile at the portal to where we came from Tide rises and falls It occurred that "Nothingness" is the so called "The Great Sage of Heaven's Equal" (I have been here I fought I don't care about the ending. I am Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong) * lyricstranslate.com
You should also listen to Dimash Kudaibergen' S.O.S. and Unforgettable Day. JJ Lin's performances from the singing show, "Sound of My Dreams". And of course all of Hua Chenyu's sounds are great.
