Oh, I love this topic! Great idea.

I agree, that sounds very much like a Cao Pi song. Even the genre of softer-angsty-but-I'm-still-cool-rock that Nicholas Tse usually sings in is appropriate for Cao Pi, and.... well, yeah. It sounds like he sang it!

I have one that's for a character and a bit situational. RUI's Tsuki no Shizuku (the singer is actually Shibasaki Kou (of Battle Royale fame); RUI is a character she played) is a song that's contextually, how I imagine Yue Ying feeling after Zhuge Liang dies. The entire peice, despite being very heartbreaking, is inherently dignified and optimistic - accepting the relationship for what it was and how important it was, while being able to move on.

Here are the translated lyrics -

Words are a love letter made of moon drops
Sorrow is an ephemeral dream

Rainbows are sighs that whisper of love
The voice that curses war is crickets chirping on the wind

The warmth of a cooling love at the ends of time
Illuminates the fragile memories of the past

"I want to see you..." is the feeling
I now quietly make into a wish
Once again the moon drops
Wet my sorrow

The waning moon floats
On the mirrored surface of the water

Throughout the world, countless flowers bloom and change
Dying people's hearts with sorrow

"I'm yearning..." are the words I chanted
Now quietly heading towards the sky
Once again the moon drops
Wet my sorrow

"I want to see you..." is the feeling
I now quietly make into a wish
Once again the moon drops
Wet my sorrow

The waning moon sings
Of a love that lasts forever...
