\t‘Miss Dong (\u8463\u5c0f\u59d0, D\u01d2ngxi\u01ceoji\u011b)<\/strong>’ was included in Chinese indie pop record label Modern Sky’s 15th anniversary album, Modern Sky 7 (\u6469\u767b\u5929\u7a7a7, Mód\u0113ng ti\u0101nk\u014dng 7)<\/strong>, released on December 27, 2012.<\/p>\n

\t25-year-old Beijing singer-songwriter Song Dongye (\u5b8b\u51ac\u91ce, Sòng D\u014dngy\u011b)<\/strong> said this song is based on a conversation with a female photographer friend who looks vulnerable but has a strong heart due to life experiences that are very different from those of an average person.<\/p>\n

\tAlthough this indie pop song has been popular among Chinese “artistic youth” [hipsters] for some time, it didn’t reach the broader public until Zuo Li (\u5de6\u7acb, Zu\u01d2 Lì)<\/strong>, a contestant of Super Boy (\u5feb\u4e50\u7537\u58f0, Kuàilè nánsh\u0113ng) <\/strong>covered the song on the June 29th episode.<\/p>\n

\tAt time of translation, this song has generated 2,744,924 listens on Xiami.<\/p>\n
