Why are Cantonese songs so popular, while other dialects (such as Sichuan dialect and Northeast dialect) are not?

Cantonese songs are popular for the following reasons:

① There are many people who use Cantonese, with a global population of about 654.38 billion. Cantonese is widely distributed in economically developed areas such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Hong Kong and Macao. For example, in Hong Kong and Macao, if you can speak Cantonese, it will actually be easy to do things, but if you can't, your life in Hong Kong and Macao will be affected to some extent, because they are more accustomed to speaking Cantonese than Mandarin or other languages. However, Sichuan dialect and Northeast dialect only have such language exchange in their respective specific areas. And a few people can understand it, so Sichuan dialect and Northeast dialect are not as popular as Cantonese.

② Cantonese songs are similar to Putonghua to some extent, but we clearly know that Dongbei dialect and Sichuan dialect are different from Putonghua, but they are difficult to understand. Like Chaoshan dialect, few people can understand what Chaoshan dialect means and how to pronounce it. So it's hard to understand. But Cantonese is different. The pronunciation of Cantonese is similar to that of Mandarin in some respects, so Cantonese songs are easier to understand. Therefore, it is also very popular.

(3) Cantonese songs are more in tune with the notes in the language beat, and Cantonese is suitable for singing with the beat and melody. Because Cantonese itself is very soft, it is easy to express your feelings, and then let the audience sing together. However, if you sing in Northeast dialect, it is easy for the audience to feel funny and unable to express the author's correct feelings, so Cantonese is very suitable for singing.

After so many years of development, Cantonese songs have gradually matured.
