  • Best Songs of 2000-2009 – Part 3/5

    We are still going backwards with this listing of songs…

    I think 2006 and 2007 marked my shift of Asian focus in music. It’s weird, I don’t think it’s about lyrics as I most often than not don’t search for lyric translations. I have just found Asian music to be more “musically” interesting than their Western counterparts.

    I once had a throughout conversation with a friend online who lives in Morocco, and is a huge fan of Asian entertainment, and has lost all notion of Western entertainment. I asked him why his interests shifted, and he told me it was because there was a point in his life where everything looked and sounded the same to him.

    Others have commented on the topic with regards of idols’ image and the degradation of the business.

    With the turn of the new decade, we will see how big the Asian entertainment industry gets. Many will be watching… I will keep an eye on this.

  • Best Albums of 2000-2009

    Well, I’ve found it easier to narrow down the number of albums for this Top100 Albums of the Decade, than to narrow my list of songs to 100. LOL I have around 350 songs at the moment. This is gonna be difficult… and also in every possible language xD

    Anyway, I’m sure that I had to take out some albums to include other albums. It was all a very difficult process to figure out what to include… going from “do I really have to take this song out?” to “OMG, I really love all these songs from this artist!!! Which one should I choose!- So please, bear with me, and comment what to add.

  • Best of 2009: Songs

    Well I don’t think I have listened to much 2009 music, and I know there are a couple of albums that are still on my list of “want to listen” but I figured if I wasn’t rushing to get them, I wasn’t gonna fall madly in love with them.

    So here is my provisional list of best 2009 songs. I’m also planning a Best Songs of 2000-2009, but that’s gonna take wayyyyyyyy longer. At the moment I have pre-selected the songs from 2000-2006 which are nearly 500 songs. I need to listen to all of them and begin taking songs out. I’m pushing for a 100 songs list.

  • Best of 2009: Music Videos

    I doubt I will catch any more music videos by now, so here is my random list of best music videos in very random categories, because that’s what I do best, I think.

    I’m writing as I go, so if I don’t make any sense. Forgive.

  • Current State of my iTunes

    Been backing up stuff, so a lot of stuff seems to have dead links.
    cannot think about the time to format. O.o

    Just finished moving all my music (because that’s the easiest to move).
    know some of them? xD teehee, predominantly Chinese and overall Asian-ness~~~ xD

    iTunes - Dec 2009

  • Chinese Albums to Show Off

    On my search for 2009 released albums, I stumbled across this post by Layabozi listing 60 Chinese Albums to Show Off — I so need to affiliate with them for YAM. Once Nate gets his crap sorted… Anyway, I digress~~~

    They got some people working as musicians or music PR peeps~ to choose the albums to show off as a way to commemorate the 60 years of the Republic of China. Though, there seems to be a glitch on their list because a Hedgehog album seems to be showing more than once there~~~ xD

    The ones on the list that I could already be showing off are:

    • Hedgehog – Noise Hit World
      don’t mind the no-sense English. It’s a really FUN album.
    • Faye Wong – Restless
    • Khalil Fong – This Love
    • Chang Shi Lei – Niu China
    • Faye Wong – Fable
    • Carsick Cars – Carsick Cars

    And I could be adding to my Show Off list…

    • Faye Wong – Faye Wong (2001)
    • Faye Wong – To Love
    • Yuguo – Babel
    • Zhou Bichang – WOW

    Though I’m sure choosing a Wang Leehom album would get me some minus points.

  • Just a Quick Music Update~

    I just noticed I can direct link to my LivingSocial:Albums on Facebook.

  • Bibi on Rong Chen Blog

    A new interview with Bibi came out… yesterday!
    Or actually… two days ago considering they’re like 14hrs ahead of me~

    Bibi Zhou @ Rong Chen Blog

    Very cute interview, where they look back a bit on her singing…
    Bibi’s mom is also there! And she’s got dimples!!! LOL
    And Bibi doing celebrity impersonations~~~ xD – She is very good, if she weren’t singing, she’ll be doing that, I bet. Also pointing out the difference between herself singing, and doing impersonations.

    Sorry, no subs… but still fun to watch.
