Sooooo true!! That's why I'm not such a big fan of translated/ resung songs. I mean, it just snatches the beauty from the song! Why couldn't alan just put the chinese version of the song on her album as a bonus track and tag it like this:

alan- Heart, War [Chinese Version Bonus Track]

...or something like that????
