About
A-Mei Star
The latest album A-Mei Starof A Mei has reserved her old style musical style. Yet, many new and creative elements also ‘injected’ into this album. Thus it totally gives us back our familiar yet ‘fresh’ look of A Mei. A-Mei Staris flourished by its multi and diverse contents of songs. Not only soothing love song, classical duet and rock song can be found, A Mei also takes challenge to blue jazz. Besides, some famous ’stars’ like Jay Zhou, Gary Cao, Lin Xi, Tao Jing Ying (Tao Zi) etc also put their talents of music into this album. The fireworks among them are indeed attractive. What are you waiting for? Let get one A- Mei Starnow.


What is worthwhile to listen to?
I strongly recommend the song of 如果你也听说 (if u heard about it also). It is really a nice track you can’t miss. This song is tailor-made by Jay Zhou for A Mei (Wow!!!). Jay Zhou precisely take A Mei’s characteristic voice into consideration when compose the song. Thus the outcome is fantastic. It is heard that Jay Zhou was very concern and anxious about this song since this is their first co-operation. He called A-Mei every day in order to know the progress of this song. Frankly speaking, this is a soft piece with moving voices which can get stuck in your head after you listen to it. Besides, the meaningful lyrics which written by Li Zhuo Xiong also play a vital role in this song.


Besides, 两端 (two edges) performed by A-Mei and Pu Ba Jia (known as prince of snow mountain as well as a champion of the competition of Hao Nan Er) will never fail to give us some ‘fresh’ surprise. The voice of Pu Ba Jia gives us another ‘fresh’ audio again. Two voices can be said nicely blend together.


I also found that the first track 永远的快乐 (happy forever) is a special song. Why I say it special? This is because the song is associated with ‘jungle’ tempo. At the base of rock, A-Mei can totally releases her powerful voices into the song. Her ‘soars’ interlude in the song also leaves us a great impact. The other special song goes to 维多利亚的秘密 (the secret of Victoria). This is a short, retro-produced ballad composed by Gary Cao.


Big City》《So Good》《Don’t Sail Away are three songs which bring along with some jazz style. What I can say about is that I really love all three songs especially So Good. The easy-going and light-tempo can make me move my bodies with the song, so good is the feeling after listening to it.


The rest of the songs in A-Mei Staralbum are also worthwhile to be listened to. Standard are all above average. I really can’t wait to lift my thumb up.


Buy or not buy?

Actually the answer is very obvious already. I think all of the smart fans would say ‘ YES’ without hesitation.
