Mayday: 'We sing what we see'4 November 2013 Last updated at 18:08 GMT

If you live in East Asia, you'll probably have heard of Mayday.

The Taiwanese rock-group has performed to two and a half million fans in Asia - with sell-out concerts in Hong Kong, China and Japan.

They've been called "The Beatles of the Chinese World".

The lead guitarist Stone told BBC World TV presenter Rajesh Mirchandani why the Beatles are so important to the band.

After watching the video about MayDay, work in pairs and write down at least three sentences to express your own reflection.
