thank you for updating news :)
|
Long post sorry!!!
I went to her Sunday concert and it was amazing, the only thing that I have to complain about is that she only spoke in Mandarin all throughout she only spoke a few words in English. I understand that she's a Mandarin singer but come on she was in USA, they of course know that not everyone that was going to her concert understood Mandarin. That's the only thing that I have to complain about. The concert was 2 hours, 1am to 3am, I'm wondering why they chose that time. I sat next to the place where they did all of the sound stage stuff, not too far not to close. I took a few videos with my phone (they are a little bad quality), I'm going to upload them and link them here soon. I'm wasn't going to go to her concert but I thought who knows if she's ever going to come to USA and perform so close by me anytime soon (I live in New Jersey but I had to drive 2 hours to get to Atlantic City T.T) I know the last time she performed in USA was back in 2009 so I'm glad that I got to see her live for the first time. Thank you Linoa62 for announcing that she was going to be here, I'm surprised that her social media accounts didn't announced that she was coming here. I wouldn't even have known if you didn't say it here. My favorite part was the end where she performed PLAY. She also performed a jazz version of Butterflies in my stomach, it was awesome. Spoiler:

Jolin spoke only in Chinese because they were not expecting non-Chinese speaking people at all... I got a feedback from someone who went on the first day about this: Quote:
Quote:
Someone on Weibo said that he came all the way from Toronto to attend Jolin's concert o_O And you're welcome ^^ I'm glad you were able to attend!! Quote:
During the Tour they aired 3 stories: 1st story 2nd story 2nd story's aftermath The 3rd story was about a girl in a wheelchair, but it got deleted from her YouTube channel (maybe on the girl's/the girl's family request?). By the way, can you please confirm the setlist I posted? It's very hard to get accurate setlists when she's touring outside of Asia :( |
Didn't Jolin study/major in English or something?
|
Quote:
|
Yet she only speaks a few English words at her concert :laugh I'm assuming that people who went to her concert, their first language is probably English anyway since it's in the USA? (assuming they were born there).
Well we still love you Jolin :heart |
Quote:
Since her staff promoted these concerts in Chinese, she must have thought "why even bother talking in English, if they're here it's because they can speak Chinese" I guess? I may be mistaken, but I feel like Jolin and her staff are still not realizing that she actually has an international fanbase (even if it's not as big as K-Pop or even J-Pop fanbases) which does not necessarily speak the language she's singing in :( |
^That's really a shame :( But doesn't she post in English on Instagram?
|
Quote:
Like she used to do on her -dead- Twitter account... |
Quote:
name of the songs but not the Mandarin and I only took a few videos with my cellphone. I was watching my videos and your setlist through 1 to 10 is right. PLAY was the last song. Spoiler:
I uploaded some pictures I took with my canon camera THEY ARE A LITTLE BIG http://imgur.com/a/3UYJg And I uploaded the videos I took. If you're wearing headphones, turn the volume down :laugh In some videos it sounds like very strong wind but is the music that was super loud. youtube playlist |
Quote:
Wait, does that mean she scrapped the "Under the sea" part? (it contains 日不落 Sun Will Never Set, 無言以對 Nothing left to say, You Gotta Know and 野蠻遊戲 J-Game) |
Thanks for the concert review, JackieRos :) The photos are great; I wish I could see her live as well.
Also Linoa62, it's a great first post to the thread. I can't believe how different Jolin looked in the late 90's/early 2000's! |
Great photos and videos. You're so lucky you got to see her live.
|
Quote:
I don't have all of the songs on video so maybe she did sing them but in another order. Sorry I can't be much of help with the set list. |
Quote:
The pics and videos you provided are already more than enough :luv2 I'm jealous of your sign by the way lol |
Thank you so much.
I scanned my ticket and put on a border. I can't believe this was the first Asian concert that I've ever been to. |
I really wish Asian artists would acknowledge that Europe exists more often:bsigh
|
Her concerts look freaking amazing
|
Miss Trouble fans will be sad to hear that its MV will never be released...
A fan asked about Miss Trouble MV during her last concert in Wuhan as part of her PLAY World Tour last Saturday. Jolin answered that she was not satisfied with it, so it won't be released. |
OH COME ON!
That's my most favorite song, we all been waiting for it. That's not fair. |
Can't she just reshoot the video? :laugh
|
If she isn't satisfied with it, it must be really bad :laugh
|
today M Countdown live was posted on the mnet kpop official channel
PLAY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhpxE138gBY |
omg she performed on M Countdown? :heart
EDIT: I find it funny how they spell her name as 채의림 xD Like how do they pronounce her name? Eui Rim? |
Quote:
The show uploaded today on Mnet Youtube channel has been recorded in Shanghai last week at Mercedes Benz Arena (May 28th). Jolin performed PLAY, Agent J and The Great Artist! |
^Then it makes sense she performed :laugh
|
She looks and sounds amazing. I got goosebumps!!
I'm so glad that she performed for Mnet!!!!! First MAMA then Mnet. AMAZING! I will never get tired of saying this but her dancers always impress me. |
I was browsing on Amazon, and I just found this album cover of an artist called Madilyn Bailey :
Spoiler:
Anyhting familiar ?? :eyebrow (Plus the title...) I don't think they stole the M from Jolin, but it's weird... |
Same font as Muse and the same title.
Is 100% stolen |

I checked this singer's wikipedia page, and here's what I found: Quote:
Lol at her being signed and charting in France though. Of course I'm just one French woman so I can't speak for everyone, but I never heard of her o_O On another note, Jolin introduced the Best Mandarin Female Singer Award yesterday at the GMA! I'm Not Yours MV was nominated in the Best MV category, but unfortunately it lost to 陳珊妮 Sandee Chan's 如同悲傷被下載了兩次 When Sorrow Being Downloaded Twice MV. From 13:37. |
It was really cute that she made fondant cakes for all the best female singer nominees
|
I want a new album!! :( :(
|
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kpgd_9ILMzc
Jolin sang Xiao Xing Yun or a little happiness by Hebe. I'm really appreciated with this because I love this song so much and I always think if this is Jolin'song, so my dream come true. I feel Hebe version is more powerful, but Jolin's is not bad as well :) |

Chinese artists don't often release new music right? They don't even release singles, I believe.

But it depends on the artist actually. |

Seems like Jolin has a new album every 2 years! Well 2017 is here soon!
|
PLAY World Tour ended yesterday in Malaysia!
The concert was outdoors and it was raining hard, so the stage was slippery... And Jolin fell during I'm Not Yours' performance (video below): https://www.instagram.com/p/BH7mL22BTxq/ Since the Tour DVD (BD? *_*) will most likely use the first Taipei dates, I hope it will be released quite soon. |
How long was the PLAY tour, it seems soooo long.
|
Quote:
It started in May 2015! |
I'm so lazy. :laugh
Holy hell a freaking year!!!! |
Ouch, her fall on stage must have hurt. D:
And damn, I need to relisten her discography through. I have only done it once so far but I have really enjoyed doing so! :) |
Work on the new album has started, demos are being selected...
Let's hope she won't take several years to release it and that we'll get it in 2017. |
^Agreed. Or the end of 2016 :laugh That would be nice.
|

|
^:roflmao That is true.

I Wanna Know - Alesso x Jolin!
It's a standalone single. |
I like the song and the cover is nice too. The collaboration is kinda unexpected, but a fresh move.
|
I like this version a lot more that the original one lol
|
The Original Version without her is so much better ... :irked
|
Previous link is down, here's a new one:
Both were speakers at the International Music Summit in Shanghai yesterday. Quote:
Quote:
|
I didn't even know this is a cover, never heard the original version, lol.
I like the Jolin version. And the new Play remix is already up on Apple music. Do hope they do an original song collabo together. |
Who is Alesso? :laugh
|
Quote:
Jolin x Alesso full performance |
Okay, so, Jolin did a cover of his song 'I Wanna Know'? (Here's the original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnSfwONWlk8)
And he did a remix of PLAY? |
Quote:
Alesso actually introduced I Wanna Know feat. Jolin as a "new version" of the song. He didn't use the word "cover". |
^Ooh. Hopefully I'll hear it on the radio then here :)
|
Another MV video
|
Is it just me or does it sound like she's singing "You light up my dog" and "when you send me designs" :laugh
|
^I GET THE SAME HAHAHHAHA I've said the same thing to a friend of mine, about the designs especially.
for the dog part we could say she was channeling a britain accent, but the designs, oh gosh, they kill me haha send me some designs, jolin! |
I think I would have liked if the song was sped up a little.
I've only heard about Alesso cause he did one of my favorite songs: Heroes (we could be) with Tove Lo |
So much time has passed and I'm still waiting for that Miss Trouble MV.
|
That song sounds like a Disney song like in
High School Musical or a song that was in the live action movie Bratz. |
Quote:
She also revealed recently that her agent had it at home... |
^Is she too lazy to edit the video or shoot some parts again? :laugh
|
Quote:
By the way, Jolin also said recently that a release for PLAY World Tour was not scheduled (at the moment). |
But Jolin... don't you want money? You get money when people buy your dvd :laugh
|
Quote:
But she said the same thing once for Myself World Tour and we got it in the end so... |
^There is still hope :laugh
|
New song!
Starr Chen feat. Jolin - EGO-HOLIC Starr Chen is a singer-songwriter and producer. He previously collaborated with Jolin on songs such as PLAY, Miss Trouble and I'm Not Yours. |
The song is a bit too distracting for me, but she sounds really nice
|
The PV is kinda creepy XD
|
Jolin is working on her new album in Sweden right now, and she will attend Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show at the Grand Palais in Paris on November 30th!
The new album's release is still scheduled for 2017. |
Oh wow, Ego-holic has mosaic all over it cause the high school uniforms they used were from an actual school and they didn't get permission for it.
|
Quote:
Starr Chen's label and the singer apologized on their official Facebook, and according to this apology, they were not pointing fingers at any school in particular, they chose to use uniforms of this school to make the MV look more "realistic". The singer also apologized to Jolin -who took no part in the production of this MV- for the prejudice this controversy may have caused to her. |
Quote:
|
PLAY World Tour DVD is coming!
Jolin said last Saturday that it was taking time to complete but it will be released "as soon as possible". |
Quote:
|
Yeees I can't wait until is out!!!!!!!!
My body is ready. |
Jolin & her boyfriend Vivian Dawson broke up -amicably- last month...
They met on set of Love Player MV back in 2010 and started dating soon after. She attended Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Paris on November 30th. She was the first Asian female artist ever to be invited at this event. http://www.jolinjenerationgallery.co....php?album=900 And other pics of her trip in Paris: http://www.jolinjenerationgallery.co....php?album=901 Also, EGO-HOLIC (live performance) with subs! https://vimeo.com/196286287 |
thxx for the links:love

Jolin's performance at Jiangsu TV New Year's Eve concert:
怕什麼 FEAR-FREE / 愛無赦 Bravo lover / Love Love Love 大藝術家 The Great Artist / 青春修煉手冊 Manual of Youth (TFBOYS cover) / PLAY我呸 PLAY & Happy New Year everyone ^^ |
^Awesome!!! :blove
|
She worked this!!
|
Someone posted this in Onehallyu.
She's such a pro, I'm glad it was nothing. |
If there are Italian fans here, Jolin will be in Milan for Milan Fashion Week next week...
Some news: ► Last month during ASUS year-end banquet, a drunk employee came up on stage. Jolin said something like “If you want to rush the stage, remember to sing the song!” ► Album progress is very slow: Jolin hopes to be able to release the new album this year, she's still picking songs, the title song has not been chosen yet. She’s not limiting herself to a particular music style. Same goes for the lyrics, when she’s working with lyricists, and they’re discussing the lyrics, usually she doesn’t give creative limitations. Jolin said that their lyrics are a way to see how she’s perceived by others, because they “know” her from magazines and newspapers like the general audience. She often says to them “No way! How can you still think that I’m ‘bubblegum’!” ► There will be at least a single release this year ► PLAY World Tour DVD is still in the works, it will be released when Jolin will be satisfied with it ► She watched Chinese movie 七月與安生 Soul Mate and liked the acting of the two lead actresses ► She has a crush on Korean actor Gong Yoo, she thinks he’s very attractive. She watched his movie Train to Busan and his drama Guardian: The Lonely and Great God and even dreamed of him. Fans sent her a Gong Yoo pillow a few days ago : https://www.instagram.com/p/BQilDLzhUNK/ ► Whoohoo (her dog) is now 10 years old ► A private fanclub meeting will be held in Shanghai on May 20th. |

Jolin at Milan Fashion Week:
Fendi Fashion Show* (02/23) http://www.jolinjenerationgallery.co....php?album=915 Moschino Fashion Show (02/23) http://www.jolinjenerationgallery.co....php?album=917 Bvlgari Dinner Party (02/23) http://www.jolinjenerationgallery.co....php?album=918 Bvlgari Presentation (02/24) http://www.jolinjenerationgallery.co....php?album=920 Jolin revealed during this event that a single will be released (soon?), but she's still trying to find the right lyrics. Her agent also said last Tuesday about the new album that at the moment they only had 1-2 good songs (without lyrics). |
I appreciate hard work and taking time but in this case it's really taking so so so so so long. Only 1 or 2 goods songs without lyrics?
At this speed, we would have the new album in 2019 xD |
Quote:
1, 2 songs out of 10 in a few months is not so bad even if she doesn't have the lyrics (yet). |

BUT Jolin is also known to be a perfectionist. She's been really picky about her music since MUSE, which is when she started involving herself in her albums (music, visuals, MV...) 100%. That's also when her albums started to get delayed several times (MUSE because she had trouble finding good demos for instance. Same for PLAY, and also the fact that she couldn't stop changing I'm Not Yours' melody). Another example, she threw Miss Trouble MV in the trash because she thought it sucked and wouldn't release it. PLAY DVD is getting delayed as well because Jolin is still not satisfied with it. *Jolin and 葛福鴻 Gefu Hong founded 凌時差音樂製作有限公司 (Eternal Music Production Co., Ltd), Jolin’s current management and music production company in 2009 after her 3-month break in Canada. |
