Monday, December 22, 2008
In this week, again, I've modified the calculation method by cancelling out the "Top Viewed Album Reviews in CMB" as a factor.

This way, we could see a lot more changes and new musics album in the chart, solely relying on album sales, both offline & online, worldwide. So, expect to see some big shuffling of the chart this week (Hint: Jay Chou finally dropped off from number one).

Thursday, December 11, 2008
I feel instant familiarity upon listening A Little Love. Indeed, I've heard many tracks in the album, in movies and advertisements, and probably even accustomed to her voice. Fiona's vocal is sweet, soft and tender. Her song often touches me，in a warm, intimate sort of way. I could lost myself completely listening to her.
