Has Some Of His Very Best Songs, February 13, 2007
This review is from: Fantasy (Audio CD)
This was Jay's second album and the album that cemented his status as a pop giant in Asia. This is a really terrific album. A few of the songs sound too similar but this album has some of the best songs Jay has ever recorded so far (notably 1, 3, 10).
Tracklist:
1. Love Before the Century (Ai Zai Xi Yuan Qian) - This song is AWESOME. It's the best song on this album and definitely one of the best song he's ever recorded. This is a really nice and addictive R&B song...lyrics are incredibly romantic, too.
2. Dad, I'm Back (Bo Wo Hui Lai Le) - rap/R&B hybrid. Jay sings about domestic abuse. Lyrics are haunting.
3. Simple Love (Jian Dan Ai) - LOVE LOVE LOVE this song. Also another one of my favorites and one of the best he's ever done. Really cute and uplifting song with an addictive and very memorable melody. Jay's voice sounds really good in this one, too.
4. Ninja (Ren Zhe) - Such a silly song, but tons of fun. Lots of rap fused with ancient-style music - it sounds great!
5. Can't Speak (Kai Bu Liao Kou) - gorgeous ballad
6. Shanghai 1943 - another ballad, sounds familiar to track five
7. Sorry (Dui Bu Qi) - fun R&B song
8. William's Castle (Wei Lian Gu Bao) - another R&B song, sounds like "Sorry." Neither of these songs, however, are as good as the first magical R&B song on this album, "Love Before the Century".
9. Nunchucks (Shuang Jie Gun) - also reminds me of "Ninja" and just as fun as that one, too. Really energetic song and nice fusion of the rap and ancient-style music again. Heavy on the rock...fun song to rock out to!
10. Silence (An Jing) - this is one of Jay's most popular songs...and for good reason. Beautiful ballad - the best ballad on this album and one of the best songs he's recorded.

video did not play because of the different system, July 21, 2011
Even though the description says that this product is Audio CD, one of the CD which contains the most songs(the other CD has only 3 songs) is Video CD and we could not play it in the computer, nor the DVD player. I contacted seller and her response is:The Video CD maybe has a European Video Encoding!? I know you have NTSC 1 in the USA and we in Europe have PAL 2.
Seller said that if we wanted we could return but it would be expensive (as she said she is in Germany). So, we were stuck with CD w/only 3 songs and have wasted money. This may not work in the U.S. so that be careful.

pretty good, February 22, 2007
This review is from: Fantasy (Audio CD)
As far as I know, this is his first album. I've been wanting to get it for a few years by now. Amazon gave me a cracked case though.
