Here is the link:

explaining the situation:
Soooo I sometimes record myself singing Taiwanese songs on youtube cause it's fun to see what people think of my music and share what I'm learning. Also, I really miss a cappella and this has kind of become replacement time for me. :)
Now I shall attempt to translate this article, which was apparently also a few minutes' blurb on a news station today that played several times, and now is circulating onto msn news and yahoo and stuff.
Ahem ahem.
It's not easy for foreigners to learn Chinese, and singing Chinese songs needs even more study, but there is an American-born blond girl named Christine who likes to sing, and likes Chinese even more, and listens to the songs on idol dramas every day, studies each day, then looks online for the guitar tabs, looking at her screen singing and playing the guitar, including Wang Leehom, Rainie Yang, and Fish Leong, these popular songs, the more she sings them, the smoother they become. Christine records them as she learns them, then posts them online for everyone to share, attracting a lot of web-users' attention, and their viewing rate is ever increasing.
:: Quoting me singing a song ::
She takes up the guitar, looks at the computer screen, this blond girl sings a song. :: Quotes me singing again::
It's really Chinese! Blonde haired jade eyed foreign girl, with a mouthful of a western accent, her favorite is to sing popular songs, does she sound a lot like Wang Leehom? :: Quotes me singing::
Listening carefully, it actually does sound a lot alike, and not just Wang Leehom, she even sings songs by Fish Leong, and plays guitar while she sings. ::Quotes me singing::
She sings the pop songs that she has learned, and these songs have one thing in common, they are from movies or tv shows. This girl Christine from America, she learns Chinese as she watches the TV, now she is in Kaohsiung, and started posting videos this March. Her videos are being watched more and more, running more than 3 blogs, and posting videos, whose background is almost always alike, a love seat sofa, sometimes with a striped towel, and on the wall there are often pictures, her elegant signing skill doesn't depend on others, no matter how simple, it all works.

So that was fun to translate, and really really really weird. ?@#@!$#%#%@#$%#
