Remembering Leslie Cheung....

Time flies...it was today last year Leslie gave us something that we still sometimes wish it was a joke.

Rest in peace.

Music: S.H.E. "Magical Journey"

There's Twins in Hong Kong, and there's SHE in Taiwan. However, SHE's power is more than just Taiwan, evident by the recent signing session in HK, with over 1,000 fans attending. This is there 6th album, and I think this is the best one yet, just because their producers have finally utilized all of ...

Music: MIRIAM YEUNG "Big Opening 2004"

This was released in late January, just before Miriam's concert in February. As her first album with Gold Label, this album was definitely a whimper. Track 1 "Big opening" is the theme song for her concert. The song itself didn't make much noise though. Track 2 "Free walk" was th...

Music: TWINS "Magic Touch"

Yeah, I've been way behind on writing reviews. Just haven't had time to do anything besides work lately. I wanted to write this earlier, but I really haven't had a chance to go through the whole album. Apparently I didn't miss much though. The first plug song is track 5 "04 Fun", one of th...

Priscilla Chan announces her retirement (again)

Priscilla Chan announced that she'll retire from the scene. Aside from the poor sales of her comeback album "Love Ties", which only sold about 8,000 copies, Priscilla said that she has been disappointed with the Hong Kong music fans, who only appreciate the singer's looks and not their mus...

"The Passion of The Christ"........

Before I say anything else, let me declare that I'm not a Christian (or being religious in any other way), but I went to Catholic schools growing up so I have a pretty good idea of what Christianity is all about. Did any see this movie yet? What are your views? Personally I was really interested wh...

Andy Hui and Sammi...breaking up for good?

Looks like they are serious this time, with Andy claiming that he's single again just before Valentine's Day.

Of course, we've heard this before, and again, this is happening right before both of them releasing new albums (mandarin for Andy and canto for Sammi)

Umm, not sure about that, but I wouldn't be surprised if "Lonely" was a theme song for something else. Good reason why you can't tell if Kelly's singing has improved is that Mark has done a great job picking songs for Kelly. Mark would not have pick songs that require good technical skills...

Music: KELLY CHEN "Red" (new song + compilation)

Just like Andy Hui, Kelly is in a similar situation, trying to get back to the top with a new song + compilation at the end of 2003/early 2004. It's hard to say what's wrong with Kelly. Her singing skills are much better than when she first came out, and the songs from the past 2 years haven't been ...

As usual, welcome!

The lyrics of "7 Friends" is nice, and as I said in my album review, the lyrics in all 10 songs in the album were well thought out.

Actually I like the lyrics in Edmond's new album better. A lot more touching especially if you had lived in Hong Kong in 2003.

I think I'm sensing a little desparation here. This is Andy's 2nd new song + compilation within 2 years. Not only does this time include hits from Andy's early days but also thrown in is a recording of Andy's concert with Metro Radio earlier this year. There are a total of 6 new songs in the album, ...

They were a hit in Hong Kong for about a month (last month). They play all sorts of stuff, classical, pop, etc. They were a big hit in Japan mostly because of the fact that the group consists of 12 girls.

If you are going to buy a CD, it might be a better deal to buy the DVD.

Music: JADE KWAN "Forward"

A sign of times, Jade has only been around for 2+ years and she has gone from one of the most promising newcomer to one of the most overrated singers. "Jade - 1", "Jade - 2" were successes, "Jade - 3" suffered a little drop-off, and now "Forward" continues the...

After his spectacular comeback in 2003, this is an important album for Edmond. "4 Seasons" may determine whether Edmond is good enough to stick around for a little longer. Edmond took a safety route this time around, releasing an EP of just 6 songs. Of course I don't mind....when you only ...
