DAVE WANG (GIVING) (EEG) (JAN00)

Dave Wang (or Wang Jie) has come back with a bang.  Not only has he signed on a new label and released this brand new album "Giving", this new release has also achieved platinum sales status in Hong Kong (note : it debuted at number two in the Hong Kong IFPI album charts).  He is also set to star in a new TVB television serial.

This is a double CD album which has a total of nineteen tracks which contain a mix of new works and newly-interpreted old hits.  The latter include the duet "Still Have" (or Hai You) sung with Joey Yung (or Rong Zhu Er) (note : this Cantonese duet was originally sung with Sandy Lam), "Who Understands The Wanderer's Heart" (or Shui Ming Lang Zi Xin) which has been revamped as a duet sung with Bondy Chiu (or Zhao Xue Er), "No Regrets In This Life" (or Jin Sheng Wu Hui) and "Part Sadness, Part Passion" (or Ji Fen Shang Xin Ji Fen Chi Xin).

The first single from the release is the new ballad track "Heart Addicted".

JACKY CHEUNG (15) (UNIVERSAL MUSIC) (JAN00)

I've followed Jacky Cheung's music career path from the very beginning.  Way back in 1985, I was already blown away by his first album "Smile".  Fifteen years have passed and today he's still the reigning Heavenly King of pop (although he has made known his reluctance to be tagged with the title henceforth).

Aptly titled "15", this latest two-CD album chronicles the hits that he has amassed over the fifteen-year-long period.  

The first CD contains fifteen of his hot favourites and the more important thing is that he has re-sung all the re-arranged songs here (refer below for the complete song listing in Big5 Chinese).

The second CD has two brand new karaoke-friendly ballads "Let You Fly" and "Puzzling".  It also contains twelve other tracks which Jacky has recorded in the past but have never been included in his own solo albums before (refer below for the complete song listing in Big5 Chinese).

Sounds like a must-get item for all his fans.

ANDY HUI (BELIEVE IN LOVE) (EAST ENTERTAINMENT) (JAN00)

Having just received numerous awards in the HK end-of-year music award shows (including the Best Male Singer Award from one of the HK radio stations and the TVB Jade Solid Gold Top Ten Song Award for his hit "Faith With Heart" (or Zheng Xin Zheng Yi)), Andy has finally released a brand new album (note : his last offering was the best-selling compilation "End Of Century Collection" ).

Produced by long-time music collaborator Mark Lui, the album contains a total of twelve tracks.  The first single is the title track "Believe In Love" which is a soaring ballad composed by Mark Lui.  The second single is "Direct Feelings" which also has a bonus remix version.  Andy's cover of Alan Tam's hit "Who Can Change" (or Shui Ke Gai Bian) is enclosed here too (note : the cover song is originally included in Alan Tam's tribute album "Who Can Change").

There are also two Cantonese covers of Andy's recent Mandarin songs which are contained in his latest Taiwan release "We Want Happiness" : "Leaving The Scene Of Lost Love" is the cover of "You Decide" (or Ni Jue Ding Jiu Hao) while "The Days Without Love" is the Cantonese version of "We Want Happiness" (or Wo Men Dou Yao Xing Fu).

GRASSHOPPER (EPISODE) (UNIVERSAL MUSIC) (DEC99)

Since leaving Rock Records, Grasshopper (or Cao Meng) has rejoined their old record company Universal Music (formerly Philips) and come out with a new release which shows mug shots of them on cover.

This is an EP containing four tracks.  The interesting thing is that they did not sing together this time round, there's three solo songs plus one duet.

The two brothers each sing a solo track : Cai Yi Jie with "Wounded All Over" and "Another Fame" by Cai Yi Zhi.  

The remaining two numbers feature the other member Su Zhi Wei.  Not only does he perform a song "Childhood Times" by himself, he also gets to sing a duet "Love Carefully" with his wife ex-singer Winnie Lau (or Liu Xiao Hui).

The EP comes with a bonus VCD which contains the music videos for "Wounded All Over" and "Childhood Times".

AARON KWOK (NEW OLD HURRAY COLLECTION) (WARNER MUSIC) (DEC99)

Another collection album, this time from Heavenly King Aaron Kwok (or Guo Fu Cheng).  

Containing a total of sixteen songs, it includes three brand new tracks : "New Hurray", "Who Can Replace You" and "First", the latter being the main theme-song for his upcoming Chinese New Year action movie "Year 2000" co-starring Daniel Wu and Singapore's James Lye and Phyllis Quek.

The song "New Hurray" also contains a so-called CDK technology which allows you to use the CD to watch its MTV on computer.

The remaining thirteen collection songs contain hits such as "The Call Of Love" (or Ai De Hu Huan), "Sing This Song" (or Chang Zhe Ge), the Eddie Ng's composition "Happy Christmas In The Warfield" (or Zhan Chang Shang De Kuai Le Shen Dan), "Code In The Wind" (or Feng Li Mi Ma), the theme-song "Jing Bian" for his box-office movie "The Storm Riders" (or Feng Yun) and "Listen To The Wind Song" (or Ting Feng De Ge).

The CD comes bundled with a bonus VCD which contains the MTV for the new track "First" as well as a whopping sixty-minute long full version of a music special which was aired on TVB during the period when Aaron released his previous album "Dream Of Fantasy Island".

Finally fans can also expect to receive a free Y2K calendar featuring twelve pages of Aaron Kwok when they buy the collection album.

RONALD CHENG (ONE MORE TIME) (UNIVERSAL MUSIC) (DEC99)

Talk about timing : just when Ronald Cheng is finally releasing his brand new Cantonese album after a one year absence, news about his break-up with Miriam Yeung have surfaced plus Miriam is also coming out with her new work "Story Of Winter" around the same period - poor guys.  Let's hope both parties' fans will concentrate more on their music rather than on their private lives (Note : Ronald has also just released his very first Mandarin compilation album "Love You Collection" in Taiwan).

There are eleven tracks here.  The first single "Fine Day, Overcast Day, Rainy Day" is an acoustic ballad which is the supporting theme-song for a forthcoming TVB serial "The Sky Is The Limit" (or Yuan Fen Wu Bian Jie) starring Maggie Zhang Ke Yi.  Ronald also has a supporting role in this series.  The serial's main theme-song of the same name is also included in the album.

MIRIAM YEUNG (STORY OF WINTER) (CAPITAL ARTISTS) (DEC99)

Miriam Yeung (or Yang Qian Hua) has come out with a new Cantonese album within half a year (note : her last offering "Summer Story" was released in July 99).  There are altogether ten tracks which include the first single "Ice Tip".  The second single is a track called "The Last Song".  She also sang a cover of Priscilla Chan's (or Chen Hui Xian) evergreen hit "Thousand Goodbye Songs" (or Qian Qian Que Ge).

However the release date may not be entirely appropriate this time round as she has reportedly just broken up with Ronald Cheng and therefore I expect that more press attention will be given to her love affairs rather than to her new work (note : coincidentally, Ronald is also releasing his new Cantonese album "One More Time" around the same time).  Let's hope everyone will give the poor gal a break and focus more on her music.

NICHOLAS TSE (MOST WANTED) (FITTO) (DEC99)

This is a new song + compilation album from the very popular Nicholas Tse (or Xie Ting Feng).  

Five new tracks are enclosed, including a song called "Aftermath Of Love" which is the main theme-song for the movie "Half Cigarette" (for which he is nominated for Best Actor in the recent Taiwan Golden Horse Awards).

There are twelve collection hits here which are taken from his previous three Cantonese albums and two EPs and they include "Voices Of The End Of Century" (or Mo Shi Ji De Hu Sheng), "Must Go" (or Fei Zou Bu Ke), "Bad Habit" (or Huai Xi Guan) and "Silent Voice" (or Wu Sheng Fang You Sheng).

The limited-edition CD comes bundled with a bonus VCD which contains the music video for "Aftermath Of Love" as well as a specially designed necklace.

HACKEN LEE (ONE YEAR OR MORE) (UNIVERSAL MUSIC) (DEC99)

Hacken Lee (or Li Ke Qin) has re-joined his former record company Universal Music (note : he has just left BMG Music) and come out with this new release "One Year Or More".

It is essentially a new song + cover selection album.  There are three brand new songs, namely, the first single "Cherry Blossom", "Stay For One More Minute" and "Sing A Cool Song Tonite".  Co-written by Hacken Lee, "Cherry Blossom" has stirred up copyright trouble in that the song's melody was accused of copying a 1997 Thai song sung by a Thai group LoSo.

The remaining eight tracks are new covers of his own past hits, that is, he has given his old songs a new rendition.  These selected hits include "Deep Deep Deep" (or Shen Shen Shen), "Blue Moon" (or Lan Yue Liang), "Unchanged Life" (or Yi Sheng Bu Bian) and "Red Day" (or Hong Ri), the latter being re-sung as a duet with Alan Tam.

EKIN CHENG (EKIN MAGIC) (BMG MUSIC) (DEC99)
