Written by Gorō Matsui and composed by Taro Iwashiro, it was used as the theme song for the Chinese epic film Red Cliff .

Alan Dawazhuoma, professionally known as Alan, is a female Tibetan Chinese singer active in both the Chinese and Japanese music industries. She is of Tibetan ethnicity.
Voice of Earth is Chinese singer Alan's debut Japanese-language album released by Avex Trax. The album contains the eight singles alan has released from 2007 to 2009. The album was released on March 4, 2009 in Japan.
Gorō Matsui is a Japanese lyricist born 11 December 1957 in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, though he considers Tokyo to be his hometown. Beginning with participation in the Yamaha Popular Song Contests, he made his debut writing the lyrics for the 1981 Chage and Aska album Hot Wind.
The song is a Japanese version of "Xin·Zhan (Red Cliff)" from Alan's Mandarin-language EP Xin Zhan: Red Cliff (2008). A slightly longer end roll version was included on the Red Cliff original soundtrack album released in Japan. A modern rock version of the song was used to promote the PlayStation 2 video game Dynasty Warriors 6: Special Edition , which later appeared as a bonus track on Voice of Earth, when the album was pre-ordered from Tower Records.
Mandarin is a group of related varieties of Chinese spoken across most of northern and southwestern China. The group includes the Beijing dialect, the basis of Standard Mandarin or Standard Chinese. Because Mandarin originated in North China and most Mandarin dialects are found in the north, the group is sometimes referred to as the Northern dialects. Many local Mandarin varieties are not mutually intelligible. Nevertheless, Mandarin is often placed first in lists of languages by number of native speakers.
Xin·Zhan ~RED CLIFF~ is the first Mandarin-language EP released by alan in Mainland China.
