She buys music from Norwegian and Swedish authors and just put Taiwanese Mandarin lyrics on it.

One of the hardest things for learning Mandarin for me is the lack of good music to listen to in the language. I can remember hearing about two popular artists that were bearable, ever. I think Chinese traditional music is interesting, but I haven't found any, especially with good Mandarin vocals. Does anyone have suggestions? My tastes are pretty wide other than that so anything would be good.

Personally I prefer Jay Chou's songs, whose lyrics are beautiflly written.
But the problem might be that Jay never sings in an articulate way and even natives can't catch the lyric.

The software I use for listening to Chinese music is QQ Music. You can either listen on line or download them. There are so many songs there.

This is pretty groovy, too. Please ignore whatever the heck is going on in the beginning of the video. 王力雄：改变自己.

Actually it's 王力宏. I love his songs.
