2010 is Ken's 15th year anniversary since debuting with PRECIOUS JUNK so yeah he really must have went on some vacation if not he wouldn't have waited til now to release Sing Forever on 6th Oct

but yeah I also cannot accept Ken doing songs like CANDY & let alone fake star :S

that's not the real him I feel , I rather he release good ballads which's what made him famous in the 1st place like his breakthough hit LAKuEN , even if , Hitomi wo Tojite & etc

I don't know for that leh , Pei Yee

have to check/wait for 5musicTaiwan to update at their end if they will make Taiwan presses of his singles

I know his past singles have OS presses so I think the same thing will follow for Sing Forever .... I hope
