This is a special update featuring KISS' Yujah Eeh Ni Gga (Because I'm A Girl). KISS is the original singer of the song. They disbanded a while ago but they've done some really nice ballads and songs in their time. Because I'm A Girl is their most popular song and what they are also most known for. The original song is a very sad, but moving ballad. It's the perfect song to listen to after a breakup. Whether or not you can understand the song, you can easily feel the meaning that it is trying to get across. Over time, the song has had many covers. The ones below are all of the ones that I happen to have. There could definitely be more. Please consider giving this song a try whether or not you are into ballads or not. Chances are you might be surprised by how much you come to like it :)
Since these are basically the same song, comments and rating will be based more on song style and such.
Title: Yujah Eeh Ni Gga (Because I'm A Girl)
Artist: KISS
Album: KISS First Album
Language: Korean
File Size: 3.93 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: KISS is a girl group that debuted back in 2001. There are no longer together and have only released one album. This is original version of the song and the best I'd have to say. Since I'm not fluent in every language that the song comes in, I can't really base it on the lyrics. From my knowledge, the Korean version has the most meaningful language. You can almost feel the sadness of the song. I really recommend this version.

Comments: Jini is one of the members of KISS. This is her version of the song, simply in English. Her English isn't perfect but it's understandable. While the song is in English, the lyrics follow closely enough on the original lyrics.

Rating: A+
Comments: I am a sucker for instrumentals especially if they are as amazing as this one. You really have to listen to this one yourself to see but it's simply one of the best melodies I've heard. If you're really into piano type music, you'll love this. I used to just sit and do my homework while having this song on repeat :)

Album: Unknown
Language: Chinese (Mandarin)
File Size: 4.29 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: Jill Hsu's version follow the same theme as KISS'. Like KISS's version, I believe this is also a theme song of a drama. The flute at the beginning add a really nice touch and also adds emphasis throughout the song. Another difference is that the vocal/narration part in the middle is done by a man rather than the female and it also in English. This is a great song if you've ever been in love. I might translate the lyrics to this one day. It's really beautiful.

Rating: A-
Comments: I uploaded this a little while back actually. I personally like KISS's and Jill Hsu's version of the song better but it sounds quite nice in Cantonese. BoBo Chan vocal's just aren't as soft of KISS's. The whole song overall seems to have a deeper sound to it.

Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: I simply just adore Roxie's version of the song, maybe even a bit more than KISS' version. She has a really nice, full voice that makes the song more harmonizing. Roxie's version doesn't have the narration part in it like the rest do but it does have a nice little instrumental segment for that. Sadly, I don't know any Filipino so I'm not too sure whether the lyrics are related or not.

File Size: 4.94 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: B+
Comments: This is one of the few male version of the song that I am aware of. GMC is Vietnamese band and the only one that I know of. Their vocals are average, nothing too spectacular. However, the narration part of this version seems a bit flat. It doesn't really have that same exaggeration like the other versions.

Comments: Sadly, I don't know any Brazillian singers. I don't even think that this version is called Because I'm A Girl. It would be kind of weird to have a male band singing a song with that name. Anyhow, there isn't anything too special about this version except that it is Brazillian. I think the song is in Portugese but I never really learned any Portuguese so can't say for sure.

Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: If you think the song is sad, wait until you see the music video. The MV for the song shows scenes from the drama that the song is originally a theme for. While the storyline is somewhat choppy from the scenes, you can get the general idea of what's going on and what the drama is about. Korean dramas are seriously the saddest dramas that I'll ever see and the fact that they always have such beautiful theme songs make me want to cry :)
Mei You Ni De Mei Yi Tian (Everyday Without You)
Artist: Jill Hsu
Language: Chinese (Mandarin)
File Size: 21.3 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: Like the song, the MV also follows closely to KISS' version. This is actually a 2 part MV. The song plays twice but you get different scenes from the drama each time and the narration also changes a little bit. From the very beginning, Jill Hsu is crying while playing the flute. I think you get the idea now of what the song and drama really focuses on. I think I'm repeating myself a bit now.
Because I'm A Girl [MIDI]
Artist: Kiss
Type: Instrumental
Comments: This is just a little random something I decided to put up just because I have it. The midi version makes great background music if anyone is interested.
Because I’m a girl, to whom love is everything. -- KISS (Yujah Eeh Ni Gga)
These were just really random songs that I picked up, mainly ones that I just love right now and can't stop listening to. So this means if you download these, it'll make me really happy ^_^

Ling (Zero)
Artist: Alan Ke You Lun
Album: MARS OST
Language: Chinese (Mandarin)
File Size: 6.49 MB
Type: Rock/Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: Drama songs are just awesome. I'm currently really addicted to MARS mainly because Vic Zhou is in it but it's also a really nice drama. Ling is the opening song for the series and all I have to say is wow. It's a very powerful and dramatic song. What else can a good drama ask for? This song just really sucks you into the dramatic/emotional mood, very nice.

Type: Pop
Rating: A+
Comments: I came across this song by accident one day actually. It's the opening (I think) to the anime series Gundam F91. I know absolutely nothing about the series but this is really an amazing song. It's incredibly beautiful. You really have to download it to see. I had actually lost the song over time but it came to my mind one day and I just had to go find it. It starts off a bit slow though but picks up later with amazing instrumentals. The english makes no sense though, "pray don't break a peace forever" ^^
Title:
Yubiwa (Ring)
Artist: Maaya Sakamoto
Album: Escaflowne Movie OST
Language: Japanese
File Size: 3.31 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: To be honest, this is probably the only Maaya Sakamoto song that I really like even if I have others. Yubiwa is the theme song from the movie, Escaflowne (not the series). It's a fairly medium paced type ballad but very moving. Maaya Sakamoto has nice vocals but her other songs seem kind of bland, to me at least. Yubiwa has that kind of melody that just keeps pulling you back.
Title:
Shiroi Ryu (White Dragon)
Artist: Rikki
Album: Unknown
Language: Japanese
File Size: 3.26 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A-
Comments: I couldn't think of another song I wanted to upload so I put iTunes on shuffle and picked out the first song that it landed on that I don't think I've ever uploaded. Sadly to say that it's a ballad as if I didn't have enough ballads in this rotation. Shiroi Ryu is a song from the movie, Spirited Away. You may recognize Rikki from the song she did for FFX, Suteki da Ne. Rikki has a very light, crisp voice that makes her ballads really unique.
POLL: Bleh, wacky weather. It's hot one day, cold the next. Do you like colder weather or hotter weather?
POLL2: Favorite song from this rotation?
