Zhang Li Yin Single - Timeless
May 28, 2009 A very special debut singleThis song is the song which made me start to pay attention to Korean music. Timeless, as the title track, is a amazing song, one which showcases Jang Ri-In's breathtaking vocal talent, and it's only emphasised by Kim Junsu's voice. Both of them have powerful voices, which carry beautiful sound, and it's truly a tribute to the two.
Y (why...) is also a great song, not as outstanding as Timeless, but in my opinion, it is incredibly hard to even come close to Timeless in terms of melody. It makes a good B-side, although I'm not one hundred percent sure it was intended to be.
I really can't say much else, only this single is definitely worth more than what I paid for it, and the album art is also really very eye-catching, lovely to look at and listen to!

A'ST1 Single - 1.2.3.4. Back (Music 2.0)
1 people found the following helpful
May 28, 2009 Good albumA'ST1 are pretty good. They have an interesting mix of members, but more importantly, they've got a good range of singers as well. I played tracks 01, 02 and 05 over and over, while the others didn't stand out quite as much, they were also nice and I'm sure they would appeal to someone else. They really have nice vocals and some very catchy songs. I though this was a good effort for newcomers and I would really like to see more from them. They simply don't get enough performance time and exposure, which is a real killer, because they seem to have so much potential to shine.

Kim Jong Wook Vol. 1 - For A Long Time
Kim Jong Wook Vol. 1 - For A Long Time
(3)Our Price: US$13.99List: US$18.99Save: US$5.00 (26%)Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysMay 28, 2009 Sweet voiceI first watched the music video of Track 02 of Disc Two on TV and I really loved it. Then when I was in a store with my friend, I heard it again, and it was playing over and over in my head. It took me a while to track down the song, but once I did, I just had to listen to more.
Kim Jong-Wook sings almost all ballads, which really suits his voice, particularly in songs which the huskiness of his voice is more pronounced. His voice is alluring and very soothing to listen to and this album is great if you're looking for something more on the quiet side and it's a great effort from a new artist.

SHINee Vol. 1 - Amigo (Repackage Album)
SHINee Vol. 1 - Amigo (Repackage Album)
(21)Our Price: US$13.99List: US$18.99Save: US$5.00 (26%)Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysMay 28, 2009 Amazing CDI would say that it's pretty obvious why SHINee are so popular, when you listen to this album. There is not one track which I wouldn't listen to, and there is a great mix of styles in this repackage. All their songs are catchy, with a lot of them being upbeat dance tracks, but Last Gift is just as strong as one of their ballads.
I chose this album over the normal edition simply because of the additional tracks especially AMIGO, which has to be one of my favourites of the album, it's fantastic. SHINee are a very versatile band who have fantastic voices, so I'd really recommend this album for just some pleasant tunes to listen to.

Dong Bang Shin Ki : Xiah Style - Black Cubic Necklace
Dong Bang Shin Ki : Xiah Style - Black Cubic Necklace
(24)Our Price: US$12.99List: US$18.99Save: US$6.00 (32%)February 9, 2009 pretty ^^This is the second time I’ve bought this necklace now, I lost my first one. This time round, when I bought the necklace, it’s actually different to the first one I bought. While I didn’t think the chain was particularly short in the first place, this one is quite different, in the fact that it has additional chain for you to clasp on to, it's quite long now, and even loose when I clasp it in as short as possible. It's very pretty and I got lots of compliments on it. I thought it was really worth the price I paid for it. One of the points I didn't quite like about this necklace this time around however, was that it has the gold Asmama piece at the end of the chain, which ruined the effect slightly when I first saw it. It is hidden when you put it on though, so it's of minimal importance. Overall, it's a pretty piece which makes a nice everyday accessory.
