Music: EDMOND LEUNG "4 Seasons"
Posted: Sun Jan 18, 2004 4:46 am
After his spectacular comeback in 2003, this is an important album for Edmond. "4 Seasons" may determine whether Edmond is good enough to stick around for a little longer.
Edmond took a safety route this time around, releasing an EP of just 6 songs. Of course I don't mind....when you only have so many good songs around why should you throw in some junk to make it a full album?
First plug song is track 5 "Believe, Hope, Love". Great ballad, perhaps better than "501" or "7 Friends" from his previous album. Track 1 "Tale of a wasteland" is another ballad that tells a sad story. Track 3 "Newslady" is also another similar type of ballad. Great effort by Lam Chik in incorpoating the newsworthy events of 2003 into this love ballad.
Track 6 "Love is always here" is an interesting piece. It's written by James Wong (Wong Jim), who hasn't written any new songs for the longest time. Yet I don't recall this being an old song, although it does have that feeling.
If it was up to me, I think this album was a great follow up from "10"....Edmond has passed his 2nd test.
Rating: 8/10
