Chinese Love Song "小小的太陽" (Xiaoxiao De Taiyang, Little Sun) by Phil Chang

Chinese Pop Song

Song title: 小小的太陽
(小小的太阳, Xiǎoxiǎo De Tàiyáng, Little Sun)

It was the worst time in my life and I heard this song. All I could do was crying. I still have a little itty-bitty heart breaking feeling every time when I hear this song since then.

Singer: 張宇 (张宇, Zhāng Yǔ, Phil Chang.) was born in 1967 in Taiwan, a popular singer, pianist and guitar-player. He's also an actor and hosting a TV show.
This song is in his 1999 album Sun and Moon, one of his big hits. View his photos here.

I could not find the original video on YouTube anymore. Watch it here: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjczMzExMzg0.html

There are 2 songs in this video. Little Sun is the first one.
