情•菲•得意 Vs 阿菲正傳 Part II Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
The previous compilation featured “花生騷” and “Eyes On Me” as special non-Faye album inclusions, this album features “我愛雀斑” from the Alan Tam tribute album, “不得了” and “心驚膽戰” both previously only appeared on various Faye Wong greatest hits or best of sets.

There’s always constant talk of Faye Wong making a return from her seemingly indefinitely hiatus, but until I actually physically hold her next studio album in my hands, all reports are just a wishful fantasy. Judging from the early sales of this album, Universal music have succeeded yet again with another Faye Wong compilation.

Here’s hoping the “next” Faye Wong compilation contains 80 tracks spread over 5 discs, encompassing materials that supersede both aforementioned compilations, recognize the fact that “To Love” was a Faye Wong album that exists, and for once and for all, release something that is really worth shelving hard earned money for. Regarding the bonus DVD, what ever thrown in would just be the icing on the cake, be it properly sequenced MVs or live performance footages. With the “newest” piece of music from this compilation being 8 years old, it’s a clear indication that Faye Wong never goes out of style.

情•菲•得意 Vs 阿菲正傳 Part I Customer Review Rated Bad 6 - 6 out of 10
Exactly 4 years after the previous hugely successful Faye Wong compilation “情•菲•得意”, comes the latest one “阿菲正傳”, with exactly the same format, 3 digitally remastered CDs plus a DVD. How long a compilation remains available is usually a clear indication of how well it performed for the record company, sales wise, particularly if the compilation contained no new material. As most of us are aware, Faye Wong’s been in hiding since her last round of concert finished up and hasn’t issued any new music since 2003. Six years on, the arrival of this latest compilation is a clear indication of her star selling power, and she is still very much a relevant diva in high demand.

Onto this latest compilation, it seems to have picked up where the previous compilation left off and tried to fill in more of the gaps to give you a slightly more complete Faye Wong collection. 7 songs appear in an alternate format, be it remixed or unplugged, 6 of these songs appear in their original version in the previous collection. 4 songs that appear in their Cantonese version, make their appearance in Mandarin form, being “半途而廢”, “愛一次給不完 (張學友合唱)”, “紅豆” and “蝴蝶”. 10 songs are duplicated, all mainly on the first disc. 4 songs appear twice, both in Cantonese and Mandarin, namely “容易受傷的女人”, “執迷不悔”, “百年孤寂 / 守望麥田” and “給自己的情書 / 笑忘書”.

Faye’s releases from the EMI era are more prominently featured here, but still not as comprehensive as the “Most Fayevourite” compilation released by EMI. The inclusion of the 10 track DVD is a real gem, although some of the tracks are heavily edited and features performances from Faye at the peak of her career in Hong Kong.

On the whole, this compilation does contain a wealth of materials. The alternative versions may mean more to hardcore fans than the general music loving public. This compilation is more mandarin heavy and contains less ballads. The inclusions of some songs in both versions may annoy some, but there are some decent inclusions that were surprisingly over looked in the previous compilation namely, “天與地”, “夢遊”, “我也不想這樣”, “開到茶靡”, “流年”, “螢火蟲” and “當時的月亮”.

a great compliation & rare DVD! Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
This is a great faye compliation, comprising of her many rare songs that were not in her albums. And the DVD is excellent! coz those 10 clips were never released before, so its so wonderful to see a young faye and she can really dance! Its a great collectible! A great recap, for fans that are still waiting for her return. Faye is always the Best!
