Mp3 Monday: Wink and Jolin
Back after a long hiatus, today I have two Eastern covers of Western songs, coincidentally both co-penned by Alexander Bard, one quite old, and one quite new.
First, a cover of "Where Were You Last Night" by Anki Bagger, performed by late-80s-early-90s J-Pop group Wink. Wink are well known for their cover of Kylie Minogue's "Turn It Into Love", but I like this one better. Plus, the video is fierce. Wink have done many other covers throughout their career which seem to have disappeared from the internet, but their Japanese Wikipedia article gives a good idea of what to look for.
Wink - "夜にはぐれて~Where were you last night~"
Next, a cover of "Sunshine In The Rain" by BWO, performed by Taiwanese singer Jolin Tsai. This song is her new single, and can be found on her latest album, Agent J. So far, it's the first BWO cover I've heard (if there are any others, let me know!).
Jolin Tsai - "日不落 (Sun Will Never Set)"
Download - Wink - "Yoru ni hagurete ~Where Were You Last Night~"
Download - Jolin - "Ri Bu Luo"

For some reason, I never thought BWO songs would end up covered! Nice discovery.
