Jay Chou

The great Shingo T has sucuumbed to the King of Mumbling - Jay Chou.
(The nickname actually came from Mr Sniper, so don't hate me)



It all started with a car ride with a good friend, during one of the lunch. He was playing Jay Chou's music video on his car on his sophisticated GPRS/entertainment system. And I suddenly got the urge to start listening to all his tracks again.

My friend had passed me a compilation of his music some time ago, at my request for that "Initial D song". And now I have took it out from the spider's web. And into the office PC's CD-ROM it goes.

I like his Cheena-rock-flavoured style of music. And plus the fact that he actually writes his own pieces, he's pretty talented. Mum used to say "Everyone can sing, but not everyone can create his own music".

I have never been a big fan of "slow music" (slow = non-danceable) in general. But somehow, listening to his slower pieces this time round does kind of soothe me. Especially when they are so catchy. Part of growing up, perhaps?

Have been listening continuously to his tracks for the past week, which was kind of a record for "Most days without dance music".

Thanks to Miss Totoro for passing me some more of the tracks that I have missed.

So Joe, Miss J, Mr Hippo, Mr Cameraman, Miss Totoro, Mr Sniper's Wife etc... I'm at the same frequency with you.



For now.
