is the Chinese equivalent to my Vietnamese name (if you were wondering, yes I am Viet).

A few weeks ago Meng-han and I were comparing artist's albums and he pointed out that Lee-Hom's "Change Me" was good. I hadn't actually heard it properly because I had a grudge against him for releasing a few bad "hiphop/rnb" songs.

But anyway, I listened to the album and last night I watched MVs at Utopia and I've decided that it's actually quite good :P.

Such good music to listen to..
