I just got the new Coco Lee album, PROMISE, and it's
pretty nice.
Sadly, Epic in the U.S. has not felt motivated to
release her 2nd American album, so her new one is from
Hong Kong and is in Mandarin.
This is the first time I've heard her sing in
Mandarin, other than the song she did for "Crouching
Tiger Hidden Dragon". Her voice is so great, and you
can tell from her voice that she was raised in the
U.S. The best song is what I believe is the first
song, "So Crazy". Very funky and very dancable.
But for the most part, the rest of the songs are pop
oriented, which is what made her famous in the first
place. I wish Coco Lee would open up and do some
cameos, just so she could expand her audience and
following. There's a song here with a Brazilian feel
that would have been perfect with a Mondo Grosso
treatment.
