for chinese band with english songs, let's have a look at the listeners 1st.
- most malay dun listen to chinese band, be it english song or indian song.
- only a handful of chinese listen to english song.
- out of those chinese that listen to english song, lagi not many that listen to rock music.
- those who listen to rock music, lagi less that listen to local music.
chinese band with english song = doom.
comment any1?
