The tune was just nominated for a Grammy award. Next Grammy will be held in coming February.
No one with a pure Asia or US background alone could ever write a song like that. Its composer is a young American born Chinese who's trained in music and has had exposure to different cultures and languages. How do I know that? Well, I know his father from college days.

I stay up late at night. And at 3 or 4 in the middle of night, there is no place to go. So, someone please sing me a song.
"Hey ! Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey ! Mr Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come followin' you."
