Recently I’ve tried to find some nice c-pop. So far rather unsuccessfully, everything I have found is incredibly boring/bland. It nearly always starts with a light piano intro and does not get any more exciting than that, there is little variation and if I skip through the song it often feels like I didn’t skip a thing.

That’s also why I started to search for a reason for this and found the linked quora question.

But perhaps someone here has found something recommendable within this wasteland, I’d be happy to hear about it.

    Well, wordgames are not so often in pop music, but in tradiyional music. In general it can be said that linguistic, cultural and traditional particularities tend to have a lot of influence on the current music of each country and do not always correspond to a general taste in other countries. For this reason it is not so easy to assess it. Even in the contemporary music of your own country itself there are opinions of the most disparate of what is good or terrible. What we like or not, many times only depends on the moment and the mood of each one, Cannibal Corps does not hit a romantic dinner with the couple, nor does it hit smooth jazz at a party.
