Taiwan Rap (Patreon)

That Taiwan Wrap｜Official MV

* All production has been done in accordance to Taiwan CECC Covid safety standards. 2021 has been a year of ups and downs for Taiwan. The year started out as if Covid-19 was non-existent, only to be hit by the pandemic in May. Pineapple export ban from China, major train crash, and not being able to use "Taiwan" in the Olympics, are but a few challenges Taiwan has hit. However, Taiwan will persevere and this is a rap for this wrap-up as we enter the year of the 老虎 (tiger). That Taiwan Wrap Written by Andersaucy Music by Danny Chien Produced by Eric Tsai (#TaiwanPlus) LYRICS We are coming at you live from the most dangerous place on Earth, Taiwan! Wait-, who wrote this??? That is so not fair Hello everybody 大家好 逐家好 I don’t know if you know, but I’m the star of the show I’m the center of the play but the only lines I get Are headlines about a China invasion threat But 沒關係 (it's ok) don’t let it get to me The only thing I let out is my 深呼吸 (deep breath) My breathing reminds me that I’m still me, that I’m still free, to speak up and upkeep world peace Though it seemed like we were slowly drifting farther apart Nothing could ever put out the fire in all of our hearts Nothing could ever take away what we contributed If only we could have our name in the Olympics They make their name by planes, tanks, and bombers I make my name by maintaining honor That’s how I choose to move onward They can’t even lay a single finger on my semiconductors [CHORUS] Each year is a year of challenge We stand up for ourselves We’re striving for a balance We’re here and we can help Taiwan can help Taiwan is helping Taiwan can help Taiwan is helping 沒錯 (That's right) We got a lot to be thankful for Top score in sports, a redesigned passport Our farmers would like to thank the world for their support The pineapples sales made a great report The families are at the table where they 內用 (dine-in) A playful time is what they came and they stayed for Day by day _ we look out for our neighbors cause We’re there for them, and they’re here for us, I’m just glad that we kept it safe We made it another day, That’s the way Come on let’s celebrate One smile is all it takes And when it comes down to the bottom of it all You gotta keep up with the rise and the fall What’s left is the right and the wrong And you can sing this song when you come to Taiwan [CHORUS] We won’t forget to mention those we lost As we move on, we bring them in our hearts We gotta stay protected, no matter the cost We gotta stick together when that’s all we got 嘿 Taiwan’s got your back, that’s a fact. 對 I want that to last, so perhaps If I asked the masses, what the right path is They’d want my name in the pact When you ever need help I will pick you right up, and we’ll 一起 (together) have a 新年快樂 (happy new year) That’s how we do, the tried-and-true Out with the old and in with the new. You better be ready to have a smile on your face Cause I’ll be seeing you, in the year of the 老虎 (tiger). Yo yo ok yo. Ima say it one more time ok . 這是我最後一次。(This is the last time) Taiwan can help. and Taiwan is helping. We always got your back 你永遠可以依賴我們 (You can always count on me) 我絕對不會放棄你 (I'll never let you down) 因為恁是我的朋友 (Because you're my friend) And nothing's gonna change that ------------- MUSIC VIDEO PRODUCTION TEAM Produced by Goal Brother Entertainment 阿爾特娛樂 Executive Producers｜Vincent Hung (#TaiwanPlus) Directed by Alex Kao 高爾賢 Assistant Director｜He-Hong Wu 鄔鶴宏 Project Manager｜Jason Tsai 蔡杰宏 Producer｜Martin Ma 馬瑞廷 Line Producer｜Jason Tsai 蔡杰宏 Production Assistant｜Li-Jie Chen 陳立杰 Director of Photography｜CK 黎俊傑 Assistant Camera｜范銘桓 Assistant Camera｜張丞緯 Art Designer｜Martin Ma 馬瑞廷 Gaffer｜厲士豪 Best Boy Electrician｜王皓平 Best Boy｜李信助 Editor｜Alex Kao 高爾賢 Colorist｜Alex Kao 高爾賢 Hair & Make-up｜Ally Chen 陳芸鳳 Hair Assistant｜王會達 Behind the scenes photographer | Jerry Hung 洪立楷 Special thanks to: Trumpet Boy｜王承彥 Extras｜黃雲瑜、林祐萱、陳羿喬、彭泰、郭家霖、鄭翔騫、李翊綸、程映綺 Vocals｜Sophia Chang, Connor Thompson, Alex Berends, Laurence Bashford Locations｜興源五金食品百貨大賣場新莊店、新莊中美黃昏市場、新莊運動公園 TaiwanPlus | Bring Taiwan to the World Watch our programs now: https://www.taiwanplus.com/?c=Programs Lifestyle, culture, nature, and technology......everything about Taiwan within your grasp.
