    February 15, 2009 Great first CD Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
    At first, I was a bit skeptical when she came out with her CD. Some people were complaining that she shouldn't be singer, blah blah blah--anyways, I was intrigued and decided to listen to her songs for myself. Maybe I had a low expectation for Cantopop, but I was surprised at how good it was. These songs are catchy and easy to listen to. It really plays on her persona and her image.

    It seems to be like everyone has a problem with her voice--I find nothing wrong with it. Just because her voice has a higher range doesn't make her a bad singer. However, she seems to have some breathing/support problems in some parts of a song. I don't think that's a major issue, with time and practice to come, I'm sure that she'll perfect it. Her voice is extremely sweet and affectionate throughout each song. And in terms of dynamics and emotions, you can tell that she puts 100% everytime.

    What was really shocking to me was that she had composed two of the songs on her CD. For me, I think that's something special. I like that singers aren't just singing a song, but that they're connected to it, that it means something to them. I can't stand it when singers don't have any artist integrity and just sings songs because it was given to them. I don't care how awesome/great/beautiful/touching their voice is, that is NOT what music is suppose to be, and that is NOT music.

    Final verdict? I thoroughly enjoyed her CD--especially the two songs that she composed herself. I think that it's a great first attempt, and I can't wait for more of her works to come as a singer/songwriter.
