Mixed of ballads and dance songs, which Joey has little handling issues vocally. I thought there are few songs probably cover versions from the West and hence lacking originality. Turned out I was wrong, all written by hongkies. Or maybe they just improvised from somewhere. Nothing overly inspiring here but it is a simple and nice consistent effort from Joey.
Track #1 & 2 心花怒放 華麗邂逅 are formulated to cater the normal canto karaoke goers. Enjoyable but easy to forget.
The one that caught my attention is track #9 如果睡袍太少布 (if my nightie got less cloth) It's slow tempo minimal-jazzy blues (non repercussion type) It starts like this...
如果件睡袍少D布 你看到了恐怕會小命難保 (if my nighties more sexy ah, when you see, sure die one)
I shall not continue translating as it would spoil the whole exoticism.
Another nice sentimental is on track #3 愛一個上一課 (love lessons)
"曾緊張得似應戰 一晚渡無限風險 然後漸漸 沉重到 不願見
人會變 情會厭 從沒甚麼保險
得多天的許可 愛一個上多一課
光影總算照亮過 想開心如何懶惰
無謂算盡機關只要情動 也不敢錯過"
Just go find love & love boldly.
