Ada Zhuang is a contemporary C-pop singer who has been rapidly gaining popularity in mainland China, with albums also having been released in Taiwan and Hong Kong. The song "Walking, We Wander Away" is a somber ballad reflecting on the happy, naive days of youth, and how unforgiving and cruel time can be--those that used to be close have drifted far away, leaving only a sense of loss.
