I'm sooo happy about a gift that my Taiwanese teacher has given me
after her coming back to Polad. It consists of two CD's, one with great
outside (the package) but bleak content, and the second one with
mediocre package but great music. Now I can say I have everythiiiing~~
<3 =)
Klick to see a large version! <3
The first one is F4's "Meteor Rain". I think it was availible already
in 2001..? These guys were at the peak of their handsomness,xP but
their voices were as of an average passer-by in Taipei. xD Moreover,
the melodies are just too mellow and indistinguishable. I can't listen
to more than 2 songs in a row, @_@* because I start to feel like an
octopus sluggishly drifting in the ocean.[w..whatever]
=v= I'm curious why, given much money to produce the CD, the listener
receives absolutely non-substancial melodies? Ok, it can be argued that
they are "soothing", but then they could make a bit more intriguing
instrumentations, as the vocal (vocals) itself is not impressive
enough.
But it's not the point, right? I am a fangirl of F4 and not of ther
music... haha. xD Just looking at the cover, I feel that I can forgive
these guys (or rather their producers). I know I may seem superficial
and shallow, but c'mon, most people like sweets and (eye-)candies...
I'm not an exception^^ BTW, I'm especially happy-go-lucky about the
booklet, "Friends", attached to the CD. I couldn't scann it 'cause it
could be torn apart. :(
And now, F.I.R, Fairyland In Reality. When my teacher has asked about
them in the shop, the lady just smiled and said that of course she
knows them, as they're very popular. True, they aren't the favourites
of fanfirls, but instead they can do really good music. Sometimes they
remind me of Evanescence, but certainly they aren't a copy.
