It's just that most albums I tested at the HMV in Kowloon have two upbeat songs and the rest ballads
definitely Faye Wong's "Fable" album, definitely not all ballady~
also try Jolin's last...3 albums? they've been pretty dancey and pop

I don't mind ballads here and there on an album, but from my experience it seems a majority of C-Pop albums are ballads. There was this one singer ***attempts to find her name on YA*** Kay Tse? I tested out her new album (http://www.yesasia.com/us/binary-2nd...0-en/info.html) and track 3 was awesome! However, the rest was slow lol!

@pommy408 - I'll definitely check out some of Jolin's work! I've heard of her before, but have never listened to any of her stuff ^_^

^Rainie Yang?

I don't mind, as long as they have good music. I think I don't like Vanness' music because it sounds out of place at times and he spends too much time taking off his shirt, which I do not need to see.

ugg..i will probably never like rainie yang, only one song here and there

i just noticed a pattern with the people i like....mostly i remember the band's music better that whatever the solo artist put out, i compare it to the group's expectation~

oo didn't know dragon rider had a MV, it's probably the only song i like out of capricorn~
the MV is elaborate

its actually in the capital city, but i'm not going there, since i'm not living there. but i do considered about going to go, but i have no mates to accompany me. (yah, i went to 2 concert before and i went alone for those 2 times! )

there's lot of promotion, and i get a 20% discount if i bought the ticket since i'm using a type of handphone SIM card which is the concert main sponsor
