I Belieb in a Thing Called Henry

I meant to post this yesterday, dangit! Why? Because March 1st is Justin Bieber's birthday! 8D

Say whaaaaaat?

I actually am NOT a fan, belieb it or not (sorry sorry, couldn't help myself xD ). I mean, I guess the kid's got talent. But he's blown a little bit out or proportion. Still, as apathetic as I am toward him, I do admit that the fanclub name makes me lol: Beliebers. And I do kind of like his "Somebody to Love" song, but that's only because he was lucky enough to get a good producer. And "Baby Baby" is alright too...but really only when performed by this guy: <3
That, my friends, is Henry Lau. Isn't he just adorable? Now this is one talented kid (okayyy, so maybe he's 21...). Reasons why I love Henry and you should too:

He can sing
He can dance
He can play piano
He's amazing on the violin
He's from Canada (lolololol)
He's cute
He's Asian

Oh hohohohoho~ Alright alright, I'm being silly. But really. Just thought I'd share. For those of you who don't know, Henry Lau is in a boyband (don't judge me) called Super Junior-M; it is a sub-group (it can be a bit complicated to explain, but I shall if you so desire) of the Korean boyband Super Junior (don't worry, I still chuckle at the name too, but that doesn't mean I don't love them), and is designated with the "M" because they sing in Mandarin and actively promote in China and Taiwan. Yeeeah, their entertainment company is pretty ambitious. They're infiltrating all of Asia. Pretty soon, they'll reach the whole world! :0  DUN DUN DUNNNNN! Not that I'm complaining. ;D  Here's Henry playing the violin:
He can also dance while he plays, but I couldn't really find any good .gifs showing that. :\  I prolly wouldn't have normally made a post all about Henry (well...then again...), but that clip of him singing "Baby Baby" was pretty recent, so that's what prompted this. c:

As an interesting sidenote, an ex-member of Super Junior-M, Han Geng, was one of the torch bearers for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the first boyband member to be chosen in history. Now ain't that interesting? I'm sad he's not in Super Junior anymore, but I won't go into that story...

Before I go, for your listening pleasure, here is a song by Henry released on Super Junior-M's latest album that came out about a week ago. You've probably never listened to a song in Mandarin before, but give it a try.
