A Letter To Myself is more matured, that is true, but it is 2009 album, two years since her debut, so i am not surprised it sounds different.
In 2007 (when i first listened this album), Sherman was just "next debut singer", and she brought sexy female RnB style into new era of canto pop, so that is the reason why i like this album.

but maybe you will fall in love with GG later it was just your first listen

So my fav. albums by Sherman:
no. 1. A Letter To Myslef
no. 2. Good Girl
no. 3. Castle
no. 4. Thunder Party
Yes, I like those rnb elements. I need to listen to album more. I cant rank albums now, im so into a letter to myself now. i cant stop listenin to it!

lol I totally thought Sodagreen had a female vocalist until I was lookig at their pics on last.fm D: I really like the last album they released, but not so much the one prior to that.

I'm just DLing Elva's album right now. I don't have high hopes for it because from what else I've heard from her, she just doesn't do it for me :/ Hopefuly she proves me wrong.

Elva's album is pretty good. Much better than last years imo. And MUCH better than Jolin's new album (which I still find highly lackluster).

- F.I.R.
- Rainie Yang (heard only Not yet a woman)
- Lee-Hom Wang (heard only Heroes of earth)
I'll just list off the major artists that sound similar to these artists:
Elva Hsiao, Landy Wen, Angela Chang, Fan Wei Qi, Claire Guo, Cyndi Wang, Ding Dang, Stefanie Sun, Cynthia Wang, Nan Quan Mama, Jeremy Ji, Coco Lee, JJ Lin, David Tao, Nicky Lee, Evonne Hsu, Jay Chou

Obviously more, but I think you should try these ones first.

yup that time i was wondering too, whether the vocalist was a guy or a girl. XD

now i'm in love with their recent albums, spring daylight and summer fever.
summer fever really rocks!!

I actually liked Elva's album :O The ballads were awful and dull, but I really enjoyed most of the other tracks. Oh and does anyone know what the preorder version is, or how it's different from the candy or diamond versions? Unless, I can't read and it says on YA...

I liked Elva's new album but I still prefer her older releases.

I'm also surprised that so many enjoyed Sherman Chung's album because for me it was a flop. xP

maybe you should give her a more listens Yooku.

Im listenin to new Elva's album and Im not feelin' it. Upbeat tracks are fun and all, but ballads are missing something. I cant give her a full chance while I cant get enough of Sherman.

^ I have tried but I only like a few songs on it. I have heard all of her albums and I think that the older ones are better. I have never been a real fan of her...I just like some songs here and there.

btw, is there any fans of Vitas Lu (Crowd Lu)?
