Talk:Wing (singer)

message: Is there some way we can describe her, well, unusual singing style in a neutral way? --Camembert
:Well, the samples I find on her website do not show a trace of the alleged "general disregard for such musical niceties as harmony, pitch and rhythm". Her timbre, pronunciation and musical interpretation skills are not spectacular, but pitch and rhythm are quite acceptable. I considered simply deleting this statement (which is patently incorrect as well as non-neutral) but that would leave the article with no description of her unusual singing style, as you aptly call it, which is clearly undesirable. I have no idea what to replace it with. EldKatt (Talk) 19:06, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Plus, it sounds more like she's doing bad karaoke versions of the songs she records (which aren't helping her either), rather than just using a synthesizer.  Perhaps the whole article needs a once-over? Amnewsboy 07:02, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

text: I agree.  I think those statements are unfair and more personal opinion than anything else.  Granted, she does not have the BEST singing voice, but I do admire her in her passion for music.    Also, she sings English songs in a more traditional Chinese singing voice, which also adds to the unusualness of her sound.  141.211.222.132 02:07, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Describing her distinct style in a neutral way

message: i genuinely feel sorry for her. I wonder if she likes getting slaughtered because of her singing by... well basically everyone. To be honest she isn't AS bad as people make out she is, but i have to admit she needs to stop doing 'covers'. FireInMySoul 17:27, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I don't feel sorry for her. I'm listening to her now. She never ceases to put a smile on my face! She's sweet! LOVE those bum notes! lol --Pellet 02:57, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Feel sorry for her

message: "She uses her own money to fund her albums, and although many of them have sold out, she has not yet made a profit."
Is this information correct? According to her homepage, some of her discs have indeed sold out, but I haven't found any information regarding profits from them.
:The listing shouldn't list any such transient information without a reference date.  I suggest removing that detail. --Danorton 02:45, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  profits 

message: I'm not sure that renaming this is a good idea. Anyone searching for this is going to be looking for "Wing", not "Wing Tsang Han" - which nobody has ever heard of. If anything the latter should simply be a redirect. to "Wing (singer)". --Centauri 05:06, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Renaming?

message: When I browsed through Wing's homepage, I listend to her interpretation of "Dancing Queen". I couldn't help but notice that Trey and Matt used an original Sample of that song, sung by her. When I saw the Episode of Southpark, I thought it was a parody sung by Trey!
Well, if you asked me, she is one h**l of a bad singer. In fact, I think she is the worst singer to ever produce an album. Is there really someone out there, who would listen to this? She has no feeling of rhythm, her voice is just awful and the quality of her production is extremely poor.
Could somebody please investigate, why people buy her songs?
:Investigate? I didn't realise that singing badly was an indictable offense. You seem to be rather missing the point here. People buy her stuff because it's bad. --Centauri 22:12, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Her site is linked to a couple of websites working as Quon Networks.  Other sites on Quon include shittingontomcruise.com and donutassociationofamerica.org.  I believe Trey and Matt found this semi-parody site and ran with it. Kinda like Troma films using Reverend Jen in one of their films.  Gaviidae 13:51, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: What's behind all this?

message: There are videos now on you tube.  One, two. three, four. I don't think youtube links are ok in external links, but if they are, feel free to move them there.  MeFi had a good description of Wing: "whenever I listen to her I smile from ear to ear -- both of which have delicate little streams blood trickling from them at the time."

thread_title:  GROSS POV 

message: I just recently found out that Wing is an actual internationally known singer, when I went and looked her up on iTunes. Prior to that I honestly thought she was some lady Rappy McRapperson met on the street somewhere and recorded songs with.
But regardless, I think it would be appropriate to mention this partnership with Lake Hills, WA nerdcore rapper Rappy McRapperson. Through his label, she has released a new EP, "Stop The Nonsense" which is also on iTunes.
Any thoughts?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.38.238.57 (talk) 15:16, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

message: The voice she sings in isn't quite her real voice.

You can hear the difference here. It's a bit like she's trying to sing in falsetto.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.75.170.110 (talk) 03:32, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
