uh uh, I BOUGHT SAN JIAO XING ALREADY! currently listening to it again and again? hahaha. so far all the songs are so...wooh i love it. but what attracted me most is "san jiao xing" lo. cos for a song to attract me, the first criteria would be the lyrics and "san jiao xing" is...awwwww =/. haven't cry la. haa.
nitey
just want to say sth. lucky draw is good in the sense that it gives everyone who's interested, equal chances to get picked. but it may be hard to execute cause those who are interested may not be able to make it for the lucky draw date? hmm.
anyway, since it is alr set as this quiz format, then just try ba! it's also more fang bian as it is just through email and ppl dont have to physically be there to gather. hmm new mlbians, good luck! really. haha.
hmmph.. no pt askin e boys why no publicity for this album (no tv spots, no giant posters @ cd shops, no magazine cover shoot, only 2 autograph events etc.) It's obviously their job when it comes to music,but publicity.hmmmph..warner or mediacorp perhaps.But pertaining to album matters, i think 华纳 as their album 公司 is not doing their job well.Suspect is due to sudden change in staff at warner(rather play music).Tat's why so many errors so far(even launch date,announce on radio & then made changes again).Maybe we should be writing in to them.
hahaha. milubing jia you!!
gaaah didn't realized weiqi was here. hello!
u know something? The more I listen to "lu", the more "feeling" i can feel le...duno how to describe. Just...can "Feel" jiu dui le. haha
my general first impression on this album is, technique-wise standard maintains. But, can hear "more feelings" liao. aha! it did touch my heart! yeah~
sleepy thursday. later got test. tahan one more day then TOMORROW NO SCHOOL! but next two days i working full day sia...haha.
I think we can wait patiently in seeing their new album being advertise on TV ba? haha. while waiting patiently, lets continue to enjoy their great music ba =).
back to my ppt le. bb =(
haa... thks for your replies!
tis long pause is v unusal... din encounter tat b4... mlb, do u know abt tat?
a little comment on d album, i wld prefer d 1st album's presentation than tis. d songs r great, but i find d display & d booklet a bit too plain. i was hopeful for a better one, so was a little disappointed.
nevertheless, jia you! awaiting for your future albums! more great music ahead!

p.s.: for those who did not receive an email from us, you're placed on the waiting list. we'll inform you asap if anyone backs out.
it's a pity for an album without strong publicity...plus we have xiao han doing some compositions, that can also be hightlighted as well.
Then there's MV waiting to be shown...By the way, this time how many songs are flimed for MVs?
*The songs this time round are more solid/mature but less commercialised feel (more melacholic and english blues feel). Was expecting more songs though, 'lu' and 'wo she bu' should be bonus tracks instead.
