The C-pop/M-pop Discussion 2nd Thread

[pommy48]

I can't stand the first two song, but I like the last song~

[PoetGirl]

oh yeah, cantopop fans, vincy chan's new album 'happy tears' is out ^^

[PoetGirl]

maybe noise is offending, I mean loud LOL. the thing is I love ballads and soft pop, thats why I love 'typical' chinese pop. so this was like BAM to me.

[Yooku]

I love Sen! I bought her EP from Yesasia as well. It's really good and something else than typical chinese music.

Laure Shang is good too. She sings in chinese, french and english.

paper_doll: yeah, I also love Singer Sen! Her EP is amazing! I want to buy it from YesAsia soon
Yooku: yop, Laure Shang is interesting (and multi-language singer. Especialy latest album "In" is very very veeeery good. Whats your favourite album?
PoetGirl: Happy Tears by Vincy is surprisingly fine, I like tracks "Handy (2)" and "Disappeared (6)"

I agree, I was surprised since on her last albums I'd find just some few fine tracks here and there, but this album is really good, my fav is also handy but also flower and butterfly.

Perhaps Nightmare. It's such a great album and I love her strong vocals in the title track. I just can't find any place to buy it. I mean there should be a physical copy of this album, right? xD Yesasia just has Time Lady and Fashion Icon...

I actually always wanted to try Sen's music, but never got the chance. so I just went on to her myspace page and listened to a couple of her songs. I feel that some of them seem pretty good. It's nice to hear non-mainstream c-pop to me sometimes.
this is her myspace page to those who might be interested: http://www.myspace.cn/senmyspace

[paper_doll]

lol I need stuff like Singer Sen or Sa Ding Ding or China's metal or folk groups because Cpop, imo, is just so dull most of the time. It's like albums full of boring ballads lol. But, to each their own of course

[butterfly_ayu]

^Had you ever tried 信 (Shin)'s music? I am very crazy about him lately. xDDD He sings rock most of the time, and occasionally ballads. I love most of his ballads though because he doesn't go all corny and whiny when he sings them, lol. I can't stand it when some male c-pop artists sing ballads like that. >.< The first single from his new album, 黎明之前 (Before the Dawn), is a gothic rock/metal song. Here's the video of the song if you're interested. I hope the video won't scare you though. scared the daylights out of me the first time I watched, I'm such a coward when it comes to horror films. xD

Is there any difference between the version you linked and the HK press?

It seems that you "only" get the inflatable guitar with the HK press. The photobook (?) doesn't seem to be given with this.
