[album] 依然范特西 - 周杰倫 Jay

Still Fantasy - Jay Chou

It's the 7th album of this R&B prince in the mandrin music scene.
And thank god, he finally spits out most of the marbles in his
mouth. You can actually hear him sing properly. I have to say
this is the best he has produced so far other than 11月的蕭邦
[November's Chopin].

Jay decides to play around with 中国风 [chinese music influence]
with the song, 千里之外 which features veteran singer 费玉清,
which may let you wonder if the latter has been the influence of
Jay's sudden clarity in his singing.
Other songs that may just catch your attention include:
迷迭香, classy jazzy.
白色風車, a 一路向北 twin.
菊花台, Ending theme Song for the movie,
Curse of the Golden Flower

Overall, a big well done to Jay but your rapping still needs more work.

Key tracks: 聽媽媽的話, 千里之外, 本草綱目, 退後, 心雨, 迷迭香
