Janice Vidal Wei Lan (衛蘭) is probably one of the hottest talents to come out of Hong Kong. I’ve been following her music since her last 2 albums “My Love”  and “Do U Know” released in 2005 and 2006 respectively. Ever since then, I fell in love with her music, not because she has a high vocal range, but because her songs are always bubbly and cheerful. Sure there are of course sappy love songs as well, but heck…a hot chick with a nice voice…what’s there not to like?

Her latest album titled "Serving You” was actually released back in November last year. But it wasn’t until one of my colleagues played the CD in the office one morning and I knew it was her new album instantly. From the first time I heard this new album, I loved it….loved it enough to buy the CD on the very same day after hearing it just once. That’s how good it is! Ever since then, I’m hooked…my colleague also thinks I’m obsessed with her because I kept repeating the songs.

Here are the track listings for the CD:

01. 就算世界無童話
02. My Cookie Can
03. 陰天假期
04. 雜技
05. 你知道我在等你們分手嗎?
06. 如水
07. 愛深過做人
08. 我愛呼吸
09. 比我想像中愛你
10. 寒命
11. 退
12. 主角愛我
13. Reality
14. 無所謂

If you have seen my status’ on Facebook and MSN Messenger, you will know that I’m currently hooked on the song “My Cookie Can”. I also like the last track 無所謂, which means “Nevermind (…I think)”. Just to show you how hooked I am to the “Cookie Can” song, I’ve even found the music video on YouTube! Haha!

Overall, I think this album is absolutely fantastic! Definitely worth a purchase if you are into the whole Canto Pop thing.

My rating: 5/5 – Excellent!

Introducing…Abosolut Colors. Lyn, one of my regular alcohol supplier got me this bottle from UK. This is a “second skin” by Absolut Vodka to celebrate 30 years of Rainbow Flag - the symbol for all gays and lesbians.

Absolut Colors – representing gay pride

The bottle reads:

“In an Absolut world, everybody is encouraged to be who they are. That world is more colorful, diverse and respectful.

Be proud of who you are and let your true colors shine. Absolut has been consumed by proud people since 1879”

Also take a look at the press conference where Gilbert Baker, the creator of the rainbow flag talks about his collaboration with Absolut.

This bottle is so cool! Thanks again Lyn! Update me for more LE bottles to add to my collection. =)

“I wrote this song to inspire people that anything is possible. Tonight I think we believe that, a whole lot more. This is for everybody out there with a dream, and of course, I have to dedicate it to our new president.”

That was Mariah’s dedication to U.S. President Barack Obama last night (January 20, 2008) as she took the stage at the first ever Neighborhood Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center in Washington D.C. Mariah proceeded to sing her inspirational 1994 # 1 platinum selling song “Hero” in front of millions of attendees and TV viewers of the historic event. – Source: Mariah Carey Facebook page

Honestly, I don’t know if she was having a bad day, her once known “powerful” voice isn’t as “powerful” as 15 years ago when she first perform the song. But nevertheless….it’s still Mariah and she still makes it sound good. =)

I know by now you all will probably be saying “Enough with Mariah Carey already!” but hey, TOO BAD…did I mention I am an avid fan? Anyway, “Always Be My Baby” from her “Daydream” album, has always been one of my favourite MC songs of all time. Well, simply because that song brings back certain memories that will always be dear to me, and I will feel happy each time I hear that song.

Having said that, when I heard it was Mariah Carey week on American Idol, I just have to watch it, even though I don’t exactly follow AI. Obviously, one performance caught my attention. Yep, it’s this song which was performed by David Cook. All I got to say is…..HOLY @&$#!!! It’s really really good. It really does the song justice. I love it and I really do hope they record his version. I mean, not every guy can pull off a song which was done originally by a female singer…and what more if it’s done by MC?…..AWESOME!

Watch the video and tell me what you think…

I really think this advert is so cute!
