Joanna Wang

Recently, I got myself a CD by a Taiwanese singer called Joanna Wang dubbed the Norah Jones of the East (though I beg to differ... I think she's unique in her own way).

Everytime Aimei and I walked past the music shop, they would be playing her stuff. We didn't know who the singer was but we always commented that the song is good and her voice, superb! However, we never got to buying the album because we never got into the shop... always in a hurry.

When we finally made it to the shop, the album was sold out! Talk about circumstances...! Since then, I've been finding high and low for it and finally, yesterday, I got my hands on the album! It's an awesome album! *Exclaim Exclaim!



It's a 2 CD album; one in English and the other in Chinese. For some particular reason, I feel that she does better in English!

I checked her out in Youtube after getting the CD and I realised she has done numerous covers in live cafe performances! Just to tickle your senses... your earbuds... hahaha... here are some of my favourite songs from the album!



This song is a cover of David Tao's I Love You



This one's Spandau Ballet's True re-made!



Let's Start From Here



This one is performed live at a cafe in Taipei - Video Killed the Radio Star

She's amazing with the classical guitar... hahaha! Left handed guitarist and she's only 20! This goes down as a definite "Dev's pick"!
