Trick (ALBUM+2DVD)(First Press Limited Edition)(Japan Version)
August 22, 2009 ExcellentKoda Kumi is certainly consistent. Her already impressive pop CV gets even better with this superb collection of rnb and pop songs. If you are a fan of her music, this is not to be missed!! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

July 28, 2009 Excellent
This is a gem of a debut release. If this is anything to go by she`s a singer to look out for. Great voice, nice songs. Worth checking out for sure!! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Tao Yan Chang Qing Ge
June 22, 2009 Excellent!An Chi is another excellent Taiwanese singer. Some really nice songs here showcasing An Chi`s beautiful voice. None more so that the gorgeous track 2.
Pity the running time is padded out with 2 instrumental tracks, but over all, not bad at all.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

So many great songs here its hard to pick a favourite. This CD is sure to appeal to fans of Western music, not least because the lyrics are mainly in English. Anna`s voice is awesome!

May 18, 2009 Superb!This CD is her best since 'My Story'. A fantastic selection of rock/pop songs that pretty much blows away anything else I`ve heard lately from other J-Pop singers. Ayumi is the best.
Highlights are the title track, 'Sparkle', 'Rule' & 'Love n Hate'.
The video clips are also pretty good with Ayumi being in super sexy mode in the mtv for 'Sparkle'. Its hard to think of any woman anywhere in the world as beautiful as Ayumi Hamasaki and this CD is a must buy.

Showtime Vol.02 (CD+DVD) (Malaysia Version)
April 15, 2009 Awesome!!This is the reason why I love buying random CDs by Asian artists. Along the way a real gem surfaces and blows me away on the first listen. Karen Gong`s 'Showtime Vol.2' is a knockout CD by a fantastic singer. This CD hasn`t left my player all week.
Overall this disc has a nice selection of songs. Some mid paced, some ballads. All showcase Karen`s gorgeous voice. Do yourself a favour and buy this CD, you won`t be disappointed!Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Rainie's Proclamation – Not Yet A Woman (CD+DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region All
(3)Our Price: US$22.49April 15, 2009 Fantastic CD!This is easily Rainie`s best CD so far. Her debut was great, but since then she hasn`t really done anything that great. Her last CD was pleasant, but nothing more. Maybe it was the quality of songs that let her down.
All the songs on the new CD are great and her voice has never sounded better.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

The videos are rather bland it has to be said, but the girls look gorgeous and they are worth watching.

Guilty (ALBUM+DVD)(Japan Version)
2 people found the following helpful
February 16, 2008 OKI think its safe to say that this is Ayumi`s weakest CD to date. The songs just don`t have the trademark Ayumi brilliance. If you play 'Secret' & her best CD 'My Story' right after listening to this, you realise how poor 'Guilty' is. Shame really. Lets hope her next CD gets back on track.

(1)Our Price: US$14.49Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysNovember 23, 2007 Amazing!!This is without doubt, the best mandarin CD of 2007. Isabelle Huang sounds as beautiful as she looks. Her music is a nice fusion of pop, traditional chinese and experimental sounds. Its also extremely well produced. Its unlike any other mandarin CD I`ve heard this year to be honest.
If you treat yourself to one CD by a new singer this year, this should be the one. A superb debut. 10/10Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

November 22, 2007 GreatThis is such a fresh sounding little pop album. I just love the euro style flavour of the music. Jocie even tried a couple of Faye Wong impersonations on a couple of tracks, which can`t be bad.
Unlike any mandarin CD I`ve heard this year. Definitely worth a listen.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(2)Our Price: US$8.49Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysOctober 5, 2007 ExcellentI agree with Kevin Kennedy. I also bought the CD on a whim and for the same reasons. Kiya Xu is a real talent. I can`t say I agree with the comparisons mentioned by Kevin, but this is a worthwhile purchase. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

(2)Our Price: US$8.49Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysJune 1, 2007 SuperbTotally agree with the previous reviewer, this CD is indeed a little gem. A nice mixture of ballads and pop songs and a singer with a truly haunting voice.
Track 3 does actually grow on you after a while, but I agree, this is the only weak track.
Highly recommended!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Cherry Boom (CD+DVD) (Version 2)

November 16, 2006 MediocreIts nice to see a band that write their own music. Unfortunately, Cherry Boom sound like there is a great band in their somewhere, but this debut CD doesn`t reflect that. Mostly average guitar driven pop songs.

The Queen And The Dreams

November 1, 2006 Terrific!!!This is such a great CD from Li Yu-Chun. Its really heavily Western influenced, especially in the opening 3 tracks. Track 1 is a great piano driven, groovy pop song and the rest of the CD follows all sorts of musical influences.
Definitely worth a look as its not your average Mandarin pop CD. Excellent!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Luminary (China Version)
October 23, 2006 Excellent!!Superb voice, great songs. She`s gorgeous too. If you like catchy rock/pop songs this CD is for you. From the superb opener to the closing track this CD is a must buy.

October 23, 2006 Superb!!!Coco has returned like a breath of fresh air. As the previous reviewer mentioned, this is top quality Chinese music from one of the mainlands best singers. Its just a great shame it only lasts 36mins.

October 2, 2006 Superb!!!
This CD is a real gem. Hadn`t heard Cao Fang before, but when I did I was blown away. Sweet yet powerful voice with awesome songs. Faye Wong fans might like this. Excellent. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This)
