alan Debut Mandarin Album - Heart in the east [2009.07.10]

jpopfan018 · #1 4th July 2009, 10:04 AM

Tibetan Chinese singer alan has secured a foothold in the J-pop market thanks to her well-received debut Japanese album Voice of EARTH. Her recent single Kuon no Kawa (theme song for John Woo's Red Cliff 2) even reached no. 3 on the Oricon weekly chart, the highest ever achieved by a Chinese singer. The success doesn't mean she will forget the fans in her homeland, though. In July 2009, alan is releasing her first Mandarin studio album. Backed by Avex's production crew, and famous Mando-pop producer Benjamin Lin and lyricist Francis Lee, the album features 11 songs, including the main plug "Love Can See", and both theme songs from the Red Cliff movies. Other selections are mainly Chinese versions of alan's J-pop hits, plus printer tie-in song "Go! You Have Me!" (duet with Wei Chen), and Sichuan Earthquake Relief fundraising song "Love is the Hands", available on CD for the first time.

The DVD contains 6 music videos. The Limited First Press Version comes in deluxe packaging with a photo booklet.

noidea · #7 4th July 2009, 01:14 PM

at first i thought this was in the download area and was already going wild...then it opened and i noticed its in the asian music chat xD

Maemi · #8 4th July 2009, 01:49 PM

So those are the same songs from Voice of Earth, just arranged on chinese...

pommy48 · #9 4th July 2009, 01:53 PM

^ no, shiawase no kane (chinese) wasn't on VoE and neither was Jiayou, you have ME!, sign, GRSE, i think there might be one new song, but i can't judge just from the title

Maemi · #10 4th July 2009, 02:31 PM

^Yeah, but that's nothing really new... maybe there will be a couple of new songs, I was expecting for her to release a completely new chinese album

pommy48 · #11 4th July 2009, 02:39 PM

Haha like I've said in the alan thread, I never had high expectations for this album because I knew it would be full or all of covers

LacusClyne · #12 4th July 2009, 03:08 PM

but at least chinese albums aren;t expensive, so i'm fine with it.

i'm quite looking forward to Sora Uta's chinese version
