  • Top Asian Musical Talents: Anggun

    2009-01-26 6:07PM / 標準BLOG / 會員可以看

    As I was springcleaning at home recently, I came across one of my old CDs... and this is one of those CDs that I know I will always love listening to, no matter when I pick it up and put it in my player... it's by an Indonesian singer who is based in France... her name is Anggun.

    The CD is called "Chrysalis"... this is her second English album... she has also done some albums in French, but I only listen to her English albums.

    Anggun has an incredible voice and I love her music, because there is such a dreamy quality to it... there are some European and Indonesian influences to her sound, and whenever I listen to her albums, I feel so chilled out... like I'm on vacation at a tropical beach resort, or floating lazily on the ocean, or flying across a clear blue sky.

    My favourite songs in this album have changed over time, depending on where I am in my life at that point.

    STILL REMINDS ME

    When I first listened to "Chrysalis", this was my favourite song... this is also one of the singles released from this album, it's called "Still Reminds Me"... ladies, this is a song for all those times when you have someone on your mind and just can't stop thinking about him... this song is just dreamy.

    BREATHING

    Another favourite of mine is this song, "Breathing"... this was my favourite song during a time when I was apart from someone dear to me... there is no official music video for this song, but I was able to find an audio clip on YouTube, so you can hear what it sounds like... basically, the lyrics say everything that I could not say.

    SIGNS OF DESTINY

    The last song I'm gonna share with you today is this one... again, there is no official music video for this song, but I managed to find a video clip with the song lyrics that someone made and posted up in YouTube... so when you're wondering if he might be the one for you, this is the song that says it all... "Signs of Destiny"... I love the strong opening to this song, and the solid bassline.

    At the moment, there are a few other tracks in this album that I also enjoy listening to, but I won't share them here and now, because I'm finding them a little too personal for where I am in my life right now... so maybe I will eventually share them, but perhaps in another blog entry and at another time.
