Read: I'm sorry for the late update this week. I've just been so out of it lately and also haven't had much opportunity to do a rotation. I'll make it up sometime this week...probably tuesday with a music video or two (most likely Utada Hikaru unless you would rather prefer something else).

Note: If you downloaded First Love from the last rotation, please change the artist name to 'Jessa Zaragoza' as it was labled incorrectly.

DOWNLOAD
Title: Superstar
Artist: Sweetbox
Album: Classified
Language: English
File Size: 3.62 MB
Type: Pop
Rating: A
Comments: I uploaded S.H.E.'s Remember last week, which is a cover of this song. I also mentioned that I preferred Sweetbox's version better. Her voice is just so much better suited for this type of song. It has a hint of R&B in it and the lyrics also suit the song better.
Title: Unforgivin
Artist: Sweetbox
Album: Jade
Language: English
File Size: 6.02 MB
Type: Pop
Rating: A-
Comments: Compared to most of her songs, Unforgivin is kind of on the softer side...maybe a bit balladish but not a whole lot. The instruments in the background add a very nice touch to the song overall. The chorus kind of reminds me of Utada's Animato.
Title: Like A Fool
Artist: Nylon Beat
Language: English
File Size: 3.61 MB
Type: Pop
Rating: A
Comments: S.E.S. did a cover of this song called Dreams Come True. This is the orignal English version done by the Finnish group, Nylon Beat. Since I don't understand Korean, I can't say how closely related the lyrics are to the version by S.E.S. The song itself is kind of mellow but very soothing. You can almost feel like you're drifting away in a dream.
Thanks cyrindha for the corrections ^^
Title: Ai De Hua Xiang Yi
Artist: Cyndi Wang
Album: Honey
Language: Chinese (Mandarin)
File Size: 6.79 MB
Type: Pop
Rating: A
Comments: It seems a lot of people are into Chinese music nowadays. I actually never knew until I saw the comments in the last rotation ^^ (See? Commenting benefits you =P). If you liked 'Ai Ni' from the last rotation, you'll love this song as well. It's a very cheerful song, makes you kind of just want to bounce up and down and smile. Hehe, it's fun how she goes "Ai ni, Ai ni, Ai ni, Ai ni, Ai ni, Ai ni, Ai ni".
Title: I.O.I.O.
Artist: S.H.E.
Album: Super Star
Language: Chinese (Mandarin)
File Size: 4.01 MB
Type: Pop
Rating: A
Comments: This is the cover of some song...I just can't remember what. I believe it's an American song but I'm not too familiar with it. I really liked this song the first time I heard it. S.H.E. mostly do ballad type songs but it's nice to hear something more upbeat from them. I.O.I.O. is a very cute song, very carefree and fun.
Title: Rang Wo Ai Ni (Let Me Love You)
Artist: Vic Zhou & Barbie Xu
Album: MARS OST
Language: Chinese (Mandarin)
File Size: 6.90 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: I just had to upload this song and to be honest, I only downloaded it in the first place because of Vic Zhou. Rang Wo Ai Ni is from the Taiwanese drama, MARS, which is based off of the Japanese manga. If you've heard drama theme songs before, I'm sure you'll agree that most of them just have the most gorgeous ballads. Vic Zhou and Barbie Xu were both in the drama, Meteor Garden. The song is just beautiful and their voices go so well together. It really makes it a song worth listening to.
Title: Soori Soori Ma Soori
Artist: Lee Jung Hyun
Album: Magic To Go To My Star
Language: Korean
File Size: 3.36 MB
Type: Pop/Semi-Techno~ish
Rating: A
Comments: This song is kind of weird but I got myself addicted to it. It was stuck in my head for the longest time. Soori Soori Ma Soori is kind of equivalent to "Bubble Bubble Toil and Trouble", somewhere along those lines. Lee Jung Hyun has a very unique style with her songs which makes them so addictive.
Title: Bit (A Ray of Light)
Artist: Lee Soo Young
Album: My Stay In Sendai
Language: Korean
File Size: 5.67 MB
Type: Ballad
Rating: A+
Comments: I'm not too familiar with Lee Soo Young since it seems kind of hard to come by her music. The few that I have listened to however are just great. Her voice is very nicely suited for ballads, giving them more feeling. Bit is a very moving ballad with nice vocals and a very relaxing melody...what more can you ask for from a ballad?
Title: Wasurenai Sa ~LIFE GOES ON~ (I Won't Forget ~LIFE GOES ON~)
Artist: NewS
Language: Japanese
File Size: 6.59 MB
Type: Pop
Rating: A
Comments: NewS (which I believe stands for north, east, west, and south) is a band consisted of 8 members. It's basically just your typical boy band pop song but NewS has nice vocals unlike most Japanese boy bands that I've heard.
Yeah...there's just one Japanese song...sorry ^^;
