Remember when I posted a video of street karaoke from Singapore?

In Shenzhen, this whole thing is on a completely different level. I came across several spots in one evening. It's mostly young people singing. Mass performances seem to only happen on weekends. I didn't see many singers on weekdays.

The girl in the video sings beautifully. But there were some performers who weren't as pleasant to listen to (I'll add an example in the comments).

Clapping doesn't seem to be the custom here. It was pretty awkward that we were the only ones who decided to thank the singers with applause ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

PS. If you happen to know the original song, please let me know. I'm really curious to hear it, but Shazam and various GPT tools couldn't find it.
