		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;How Crazy Your Love&#8221; is YUI&#8217;s fifth studio album.  I am a fan.  Hence you can imagine how painful it was for me to wait till the record hits the store here in Singapore when not too far away, in a place called Hong Kong, the album not only comes with a CD, but also [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was so excited about Anna Tsuchiya (土屋アンナ) so much so that when Amazon.co.jp alerted me of her 3rd album, I quickly dived in and made a purchase, when I was holidaying in Hong Kong.  Much cheaper than to buy the imported version in a local music store.  Much faster too.  It takes ages for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the vocalist behind one of the two bands in the popular Japanese anime series &#8220;Nana&#8221;, at times I wonder if Anna Tsuchiya has made the anime famous or it is the other way round.  I think it is a bit of both.  Her second album &#8220;Nudy Show!&#8221; (2008) follows closely with the style of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nowadays, I seldom write about the music I listen to.  Not as often anyway.  With legal and unlimited music download, it matters little if it is a good album, or a bad one.  Because worst case, I delete the album off my digital storage.  On average, I listen to an album once, or twice, and then move [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If I could hand out album of the year award, I would seriously consider Jewel&#8217;s &#8220;Sweet and Wild&#8221; as one of the nominees.  That is based on the 8,000 songs I have downloaded over one year (thank you Nokia).  If you have heard Jewel singing live &#8211; which I did when I was working in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you stop for a moment and ponder why one would buy into Kylie&#8217;s music, I reckon that has to do with the overall branding than the creativity and the technical execution of her music.  Using the image of the goddess of love, beauty, and sexuality &#8211; Aphrodite &#8211; as the title of her 11th [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Celebrating their 10 years of music career, the Japanese band Love Psychedelico has released a new album &#8220;Abbot Kinney&#8221;.  I still like their debut &#8220;The Greatest Hits&#8221; the most (how appropriately titled!).  But &#8220;Abbot Kinney&#8221; is growing on me.  I guess I was looking for that dark melodic track &#8220;Last Smile&#8221; in this new album [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve said it before and I will say it again.  She is young, she is talented, she is ambitious, and at the age of 22, there are few artists who have released a dozen of commercially successful albums in three different languages.  As mentioned in my previous post (April 2008), I had my hopes and fears [...]]]></description>
