Why do they sing like this?

Was watching a Taiwanese show with my grandparents in our cozy backyard cabin. Some dude was singing a Bon Jovi song and was, well, obviously suffering the high notes. Then a lady singer sang something sad. Followed by a stream of happy-in-love songs. But everyone on stage had the same pained expression. Guess they were really feeling it...

Gramps found it most amusing. He said, Why do people nowadays sing as if they're yao ss bu hwuh? Like they're soooo sad, so so sad. Like this:


He had a lot of fun pulling this face through out the remainder of the show while emitting some morose notes.


Hahaha. So 38.
