Editorial Reviews

Asian only 'best of' 2 CD set of her previous 5 years of output for Epic Records/Asia. All 22 tracks are sung in her native Mandarin but the CD does list the translation for the tracks in English. Tracks include, 'Longing To See You', 'Love You In 2090',

5.0 out of 5 stars Album title says it all, June 23, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Best of My Love (Audio CD)

This is a great CD set to own whether you're a CoCo lover or a newcomer to her music. Her singing is captivating and her style is all her own. Her voice is clear and controlled, but CoCo's greatest asset as a singer is the versatility of her voice and style. She can be an angel one minute ("Sad Angel") and a temptress ("Love You If I Want") the next. Or she can be wistful ("Longing to See You") or coy ("You Are My Superman"). This CD set has the best of everything.

Tracks 1-12 comprise the first disc, which features her slower-tempo songs. Here is where her pure singing itself is best showcased. "After Winter's Gone" especially stands out. Tracks 13-22 as listed on amazon are actually the second disc, which features almost exclusively faster-paced songs. "Love Me a Little Longer" is smooth as silk with an air of seduction. "Di Da Di" is a famous track in many parts of Asia, and it's one of CoCo's biggest hits to date. It'll leave you singing along, or at least humming the chorus in your mind. "Longing to See You" features a relaxed groove and sweet lyrics; "Love You in 2090" has a similar velvety feeling to the opening track; and the final track, "Sad Angel," (not "angle") really will make your heart feel a little heavier. That's not a bad thing, as it speaks of CoCo's ability to convey honest emotions. One of the highlights of the second CD, and another one of CoCo's biggest hits, "Feelin' Good" ("Hao Xing Qing" in Mandarin), has an addicting, driving beat topped with sweet lyrics. It's borderline sugary, but the tongue-in-cheek feeling and CoCo's honest delivery keep it from being too much.

I have to agree with the other reviewer that it's one of the best CD compilations I own. The second disc hasn't left my changer since I bought the set. One final note: not all the tracks are Mandarin; "Sad Angel" is Cantonese.

I love this album because it includes so many of my favorites on there, such as Stay with me, and also after winter's gone. There is just so much on this CD I like, I think it is the best compilation CD that I own. Way to go CoCo !!
