Comments by "May L" (@MeiinUK) on "How Cantopop is making a comeback in Hong Kong clubs" video.
There's a strong South American style Spanish songs coupled with Cantonese music. That's a very strong like. I like European EDMs... And done classic pops. I don't think I've ever heard of Canton disco...

@jchantw : It depends on which crowd, you're talking about. There's the old style Cantonese sad operatic style songs... Which is semi making a comeback. There's the old Spanish based Argentinian tango but with Cantonese lyrics. This is quite lived by a certain crowd. I could see why they feel this is modern. It does sound modern to my ears. Then there's the 80s English pop slash metal slash rock.... I didn't know that HK had soft rock as early as the 60s.... That is extremely modern... I'd like to see more of this style ? Bring back the retro. Then there's the new of EDMs, dance, or Canton disco... Grunge was in HK at one point too.

@godwindracing6056: Yes... This is very common here in the UK... Just a small team of musicians that plays on the weekend around the pubs in the UK when they have a 9 to 5. Meeting their friends or fans. It's common. I suppose the similar style in HK is the Cantonese opera.... That is a regular event too.
