I was scrolling through Weibo during my lunch break in Toronto when I saw the announcement – Zhang Xinzhe, the ‘Prince of Love Songs,’ is making a grand comeback in 2025 with his new single ‘Leaving to Get Closer.’ My hands literally trembled as I clicked the preview link… only to be greeted by that dreaded grayed-out ‘This content is unavailable in your region’ message.
The frustration is real. That moment when your favorite artist drops new music but you’re blocked from hearing it because you happen to be sipping coffee in Vancouver instead of Shanghai. The teaser video showed Zhang Xinzhe’s familiar melancholic gaze, those soulful vocals just barely audible before the playback froze – a cruel preview of what we overseas fans might experience when the full song drops on July 23.
Here’s what makes this especially painful for us expats: Zhang’s music carries nostalgia that hits differently when you’re thousands of miles from home. I remember my college days in Beijing, when ‘Belief’ played in every KTV session. Now in my Melbourne apartment, even Spotify’s ‘This is Zhang Xinzhe’ playlist is missing half the tracks.
The comments section under QQ Music’s Weibo post tells the same story: ‘Why can’t I watch in the UK?’ ‘Keeps buffering in Singapore!’ ‘Error 403 in New York.’ It’s 2024 – shouldn’t music transcend borders, especially for artists like Zhang who’ve built careers on universal emotions?
Some fans have gotten creative. My friend in Tokyo uses her mom’s Shanghai phone number to verify her QQ Music account. Another in Sydney wakes up at 5AM to catch live streams during China’s prime time. But these workarounds shouldn’t be necessary for what’s essentially a love song about distance – ironic, isn’t it?
As we count down to July 23, I keep refreshing that grayed-out page, hoping for a miracle. Maybe this time, the music will play. Maybe this time, the distance won’t matter. Until then, we’ll keep searching for ways to bridge that frustrating gap between the content we love and the places we’ve chosen to live.
