I admit Andy Lau's cover of the subtheme from Return of the Condor Heroes is quite good, but somehow I feel the timbre of his voice somehow lacks the resonance and clarity of say, Roman Tam or Adam Cheng.

EDIT: here's the song--please mind the awkward visuals:

You are right, Andy Lau's vocals resonate better in that song from Return of the Condor Heroes.
I don't remember this song, actually, but that is mainly because Return of the Condor Heroes is not one of my preferred stories. Too much love, not enough violence!

No, I do not remember this theme used by RTV.
What I remember, however, was that in the RTV series "Reincarnation", I heard snippets from "Star Wars"!

My post was a response to this post... I should have linked/quoted it. My mistake. i didn't want to start a new thread for this, and this current thread was close enough... here's one of THE most popular background music pieces used by both RTV/ATV and TVB back in the 70s and 80s. anyone remember it?

I was trawling around on the net tonight when I found this song, the title theme from a old Hong Kong ATV series called Shen Sheng Yi 沈胜衣. The fighting was not bad indeed!

I LOOOVE all these songs, even if I don't understand a word of Cantonese...
The theme of God of sabre is very good.

The theme of God of sabre is very good. not understanding the language should never be a barrier. people listen to italian opera all the time without knowing what the lyrics mean. agreed that the theme of god of sabre is fab. and hey, if you're ever curious about the lyrics of any of the themesongs, just ask one of the members to translate (or at least give a summary of the meaning of the lyrics)!

I just listened to a Jenny Tseng's cd and I recognized the theme song of God of sabre. Does anyone can tell me if it's her who sang the original theme song or if it's a song that she chose to sing in her cd, please ?
Thanks for any answer.
