    There was an \"Oscar\" album that was immensely popular in the late 90s. It had songs from Oscar winning movies including Titanic. On more than one occasion they would slip it in the CD player seemingly for my laowai benefit when I walked into a cafe.

    \"Early English Songs\"? I thought you meant something like \"Greensleeves.\"

    Anyway, as for older contemporary music once popular in China, look at anything by the Carpenters or Kenny G. Simon and Garfunkel also had quite a following
