F.I.R. were guests at a Taiwanese radio show last night and played 8 tracks from Atlantis (all except Wei Guang and Wo Chao Yue). I think I may end up liking Let's Smile better as an album. People who like what F.I.R. typically does will enjoy this album.

A brief summary of the songs:

1. Atlantis - No explanation needed. Reminds me of Flight Tribe (the song).

2. Lei Guang Shan Shuo - Some of you may have heard the 30s preview already, but the chorus is what makes the song (I think).

3. Hua Fei Hua - It used to be a demo song called "Guo Ke". Faye wrote the song back in 2003, and it was meant to be on the first album. Anyway, the song is very oriental... not bad.

4. Wo Chao Yue - It wasn't played on the radio show, but a preview of it leaked a few months ago. It samples Beethoven's Ode to Joy.

5. Ai You Lu Ke Tui - Another great ballad, slow and mellow... it sounds a bit weird at times.

6. Wei Guang - wasn't played on the radio show... another ballad though.

7. Say Hello - At first I didn't think I would like this song, but it's an alright happy song. Too cute for me though... Real does a bit of rapping in the song.

8. Tang Ji He De - Probably the heaviest, most "rock" song on the album. Not really feeling it.

9. Rang Ai Chong Sheng - I like the verses the most.

10. Luo Si Ding - A happy song to end the album... kinda reminds me of the last song on Ai-Ge Ji (their 4th album). You can hear Ian sing in the song as well.

All in all, the ballads triumph over the up-tempo songs.

On G-Music they seemed to say it was the same cover for both.
It seems that I misunderstood XD

other pics from the preorder version

01 亞特蘭提斯 - GREAT SOUND! Yes, melody is very typically F.I.R. but the sound and brilliant MV makes up for it

02 淚光閃爍 - I knew i was going to love this song but NOT TILL THIS EXTENT! This song is just freaking amazing!!! T.T The buildup is perfect.

03 花非花 - very very unique song. I love F.I.R. in the first place, because they have these ethnic sounds which are so different. This song is ALL about it but the transition between verse-chorus may need sometime for me to get used to

04 我超越 - The must-have high song. I dont adore such songs but i guess it's a must sometimes to have a fun song. The sampling of....*that song*....is cool hahha. Sick guitar tune too

05 愛有路可退 - What a beautiful ballad..i love the emotions coming out from this track. its definitely a nice change from the power ballads they have on the album. and ARGHHHH That celtic feeling in the middle...goshhhh *.*

06 微光 - the waltz beat!!! I felt a sense of positivity from this opening. I liked it from the preview too. there's this timeless feel in the melody between the verse and chorus which sounds great!

07 Say Hello - CUTE! but i think i wanna move on to more epic music HAHHA..will come back to it

08 唐吉訶德 - ROCKKKKK!! So glad they finally return to this harder edgier rock style! It was kinda missing in the previous album both music wise and melody wise.

09 讓愛重生 - EPIC. NO OTHER WORDS FOR THIS SONG.

10 螺絲釘 - OOO SO FUN!! Lao shi finally SANG!!!! i love this trio so much XD

GREAT ALBUM OVERALLL!!!
