Charlene Choi or Ah Sa who had just recently released a solo effort, Make A Wish, is back with another single, Little Dimple or Xiao Jiu Wo. Although this song is a duet with Singaporean Lin Jun Jie, it shows Ah Sa is really serious and leaving no stones unturned in her effort to establish her solo music career. Little Dimple or Xiao Jiu Wo is one of those cute songs that can make M&M chocolates melt before they are in your mouth! Unfortunately, the music video [MV] failed to leave any significant or lasting impression on me. Here are the MV and lyric of Xiao Jiu Wo by Lin Jun Jie and Charlene Choi:

Raymond Lam Fung has released his much-awaited second album, Your Love. This album follows the current trend of most of the new Cantonese albums such as Linda Chung’s debut album where at least one of the songs will be in Mandarin. In this case, it’s a duet, After Tomorrow or Ming Tian Yi Hou, with Vincy Chan and it’s also available in Cantonese version [well, this is a Cantonese album after all]. Your Love also has two theme songs of two recent TVB drama series in which Raymond Lam Fung also starred. Love Isn’t Enough or Ai Bu Gou is the theme song for the currently airing Heart Of Greed 2: Moonlight Resonance while Life Like Water or Fu Sheng Ruo Shui is the theme song for The Master Of Tai Chi.

P.S. A part of the tracklist is translated by a friend of mine, Kai Xin [a young lady who is obsessed with a hairy beast called Lion], who for some reasons keep hiding her sister away from me.

Rannes Man Yan Ching is a Hong Kong-born singer-songwriter who migrated to United States [US] when she was 15 years old before returning to Hong Kong to enter its music industry. She had worked as a model [this isn’t surprising judging by her beauty from the album cover], TV program assistant and piano teacher before given a chance to release her debut album. Rannes Man even became a backup vocalist and piano player for various music functions before this breakthrough in her music career. This debut album, Rannes, contains 9 Cantonese songs including a duet with Daniel Chan. Hopefully, all her hard work in the last 4 years will bear the fruit of success in the form of a well-received debut album.

As a celebration [yes, his songs are that good] for the upcoming release of Nicky Lee Jiu Je’s new album later this month, I decided to introduce a nice song from him which was released before his last album, Think Too Much or Xiang Tai Duo. Nicky Lee Jiu Je had collaborated with Ah Qin of F.I.R. in a very good song, Remember Love or Ji De Ai. This song was included in Ah Qin’s debut solo album, Real, which was released in May last year and it is easily the best song in that album. Furthermore, this is the first duet done by Nicky Lee with another male singer. Here’s the music video [MV] of Ji De Ai by Nicky Lee Jiu Je and Ah Qin in both standard and high quality versions:
