Chinese POTO Clips

I found this clip on a chinese website: www.tt78.com
The title song is sung in Chinese but the other 2 (LTBL and MOTN) are in English.
POTO (title song):

LTBL:

MOTN:

_____________
The songs are all sung by the same person. He's a half white/half chinese guy and grew up in LA or something so this is no crap where a singer has some strong accent.

Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky. With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high! Blood-red were the spurs i' the golden noon; wine-red was his velvet coat, when they shot him down on the highway, down like a dog on the highway, and he lay in his blood on the highway, with the bunch of lace at his throat...

I haven't listened, but is the singer Kris Phillips, whose ego was so prominently featured in that Chinese ALW concert with Elaine Paige?

(Nice voice, but still...)

That's one of the best versions of Music of the Night I've ever heard.

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

He has a great voice. The woman singing the part of Christine in the title song, however, is a bit too shrill and weak for me.

I too, saw "Chinese potato chips".

Kris Phillips is terrific in that concert with Elaine Paige. I have the DVD - which also comes with a CD!
