Let's Start from Here

My good friend Marlene the D sent me a song called 'Let's Start from Here' and told me it is Joanna Wang's song. Who's Joanna Wang, I thought. However, Marlene and I normally share the same taste of music, so I started listening.

The moment the music intro started, I knew this is gonna be good music. Not until Joanna Wang started singing, it was just, WOW! Thanks, Marlene, for introducing such wonderful music to me, and thanks in advance for the CD that I'm gonna receive in Malaysia. :)

Joanna Wang is a Taiwanese educated in California. Everybody says that she's the Norah Jones of Taiwan, but I personally think that is an understatement. Her voice has a very distinctive identity, albeit sounds older than her age. She sounds like a jazz female vocalist with years of experience. If you don't believe me, just take a listen for yourself.

I heard that her debut album was also released in Japan, so I'm gonna hunt for the Japanese pressing as well!

Hi Bro. Have u heard of a Japanese singer called Yuri Chika ? She's really good. Should check her out. There is a good album "Tokyo Cafe" which you should check out. Some of the more interesting Japanese singers are in the album.
