i like SHE's harmony~i think
i never listened to Vanness before, he haven't released anything new right?

Killer is sooo good though!

Favorite canto artists... and don't laugh... is Twins! But sadly, they probably won't be doing anything for a long time because of the Edison Chen scandal with Gillian earlier this year, (T_T). I also did like Edison Chen too.... but Kelly Chan.. I like her for her fast songs; she tends to do too many ballad, slow songs which get boring though.

I listen to more Mandarin pop... Leehom Wang <3 <3 Angela Chang <3 <3 <3 are my favorites!

i did like edison too~ only that one song where he's trying to be all gangster, i think it's "Do you remember me" the beat was pretty nice and i love any songs with oriental soundings to it..hmm now that i think of it, i still love it


<333333333 YAY for mandarin pop!! i love leehom and angela, flower in wonderland is my obsession right now!!

totally lame.

he can't stand jolin for needing the toilet too often and her eating habits, since she prefer to eat more healthy.

eg, like draining meat in water before eating, or that she prefer steamed/boiled food

[AyumiBest]

^Oh my god! Are you serious? Jay actually broke up with her just because she needs to go to the bathroom and her heallthy habits?

[mimika]

^ I thought Jay Chou broke up with Jolin 'cuz of Patty Hou?

i read somewhere that Jolin talked about how Jay lied to her about dating Petty...even after their pics were took by papparazzi in japan...jolin said she was the last one to know

Is that an original song, because I have a song by the band Ashura (阿修罗) from 2005 and it's the same. I thought the A-mei song was from her 2007 album?

[pommy48]

^ well looking at the beginning credits, it says the music and lyrics are created by ashura, so it's a cover

well, he can't stand her habits and he happen to met Patty then, so.....he compare the both of them...he prefer easy going/simple/girl-next-door girls and jolin's habits isn't his type, while Patty Hou is just THE type of girls he prefer.

and so you know what happen to poor jolin in the end.

too bad Jay is a music talent, but not in love life.....his albums are really great. *sigh* that's why i only download albums, but never purchase even one(coz i don't want him to earn a single cent from me). ha ha! *evil laugh*

omg D: I can't believe I missed that on the video! lol

IMO, A-Mei's recent album was definitely very disappointing. Though compared to many other albums, it is ok, I just don't have much love for it, despite the fact that it was promoted like heck when I was in Taiwan at that time. I think it has to do with the fact that she was going even more mainstream than I was hoping. The album didn't have any spectacular songs on it, except for the 1st single. Especially compared to I Want Happiness & Maybe Tomorrow.

[pommy48]

i wish she would release something like she did in her earlier days..but after her producer's death, i feel no other person can really capture that ameiness in her

that sucks...i feel bad for jolin too

i guess when a person loses love for the other person, they can always pick out reasons on what they don't like about the other person since nobody is perfect

if you love somebody, you accept all his/her faults...when you don't love him/her anymore, even the smallest thing you can't stand

unfortunately that's reality

true, after Zhang Yu Sen's death, i lose all interest in her newer songs, they are like so generic to me.
I had given up of giving it a try after 2 albums

[Fair Wind]

^Mmm, I'm not too sure about that lmao, at least not for me. Her first 2 albums really showed off her vocal abilities, but I think her later stuff really reflected how she had to adapt to her changing voice. I think Lover, May I Hold You? is stellar (probably because it's my first album by her) and both Truth and Fever were quite nice, especially the former (as I have her live, she sounds stunning).

Mm, but I would not want to go back in time. Yes, her voice was stellar, but I would prefer to leave those as her classics and not try to reach those levels with her voice right now. Like I said, Maybe Tomorrow is an amazing album, I just don't think many people really liked it because it wasn't the mainstream feel that she was bringing with her other albums at the time.

[pommy48]

i would love if she didn't go mainstream so much on STAR, but anything for sales...i feel her recent ballads have a touch of her older stuff, so i it

[mimika]

actually what happened to ah mei? how come she disappeared for a while?

[pommy48]

like during what time?

[Fair Wind]

Well sometimes it takes a while for artists to release new CDs, especially in Cpop, which usually takes 1-2 years. She's probably recording right now.

[pommy48]

omg..the beat of this song IS ADDICTING!!!!!!!!!!!! <3333333333
and haha, is that BY2 i see XD



but really....the engrish is horrible XD
"take a ***** on my sofa" .....

[LacusClyne]

i saw in the news that jolin will be releasing a new album next feb...yay!
