I've added a new song "Black matches White" by Fan Wei Qi to the newly renovated music page. The singer wrote this song for her boyfriend. She considers herself very pale and so represents the "white" while her boyfriend being quite tanned (apparently his nickname in real life is "black man") represents the "black" side. So in her song she states that "black matches white" just like in their relationship and to not mind what others say.
This reminded me of my own personal experience living in Taiwan. Being of Indian origin myself, I am considered "brown" in North America but in Taiwan they have no word for brown skinned people so I'm considered "black" there. I suppose this song could apply to me and my relationship with a Taiwanese girl.
