Yay! 棉花糖 has a new album coming up!!! They are 1 of the few groups that make me still enjoy Mando pop. Love the girl 小球's voice. Went for their mini concert at Esplanade the other time and enjoyed it a lot. Felt really touched when I cld hear them sing live. Don't know why. From street singers in Taiwan to holding mini concert in Singapore... They are another group of people who dare to and are trying so very hard to fulfil their dreams.

属于棉花糖的B612

Wow it's a new year again.

First live music of the year 2010 I watched was katncandix2 棉花糖 at the M1 Fringe Festival. It was just like when I first knew about sodagreen. Only heard a few of their songs, and decided to buy tics to their live show. And indeed, no regrets.

It was at Esplanade Recital Studio. I love this venue. It's such a cosy place, and it allows musicians to be face to face with the audience, and with only their instruments at hand. Wonderful venue for live performances. The other time Captain Lu performed there too. Amazing venue.

棉花糖 was great live! Didn't know 小球, the female vocalist, was so "vocal”!She talked so much and was hilarious. Luckily she was present to spice up the show haha...At 1 point when 圣哲, the guitarist broke a guitar string and went backstage to re-string the guitar, she just went on and on to talk about their experiences as a busker. 圣哲 was so different from her . He doesn't talk much, is seems rather serious about things. That's why they are a group - there is the contrast and regular banter between the 2, which was funny too....

SO they sang songs from their debut album, and in between would talk about why they wrote the songs. And then there would be slideshows accompanying the songs with lyrics, prepared by 圣哲's brother. Not to forget the keyboardist 小杰. He looked more like a hip-hop dancer than a keyboardist, but could play the keyboard with so much feeling, and at times so gentle! Amazing...

小球'svoice is warm, and rather strong at times. Nice! Her rendition of 林侑嘉's 心酸 was good! Don't know why I felt rather 感动 when she sang 陪你到世界的终结。I think it's great that they are able to pursue their dreams, and even bring their music from the streets of Taiwan to out of Taiwan.

IN the end, a 40 minute show became a 1h 40min live music and sharing session. INteresting. There was even an autograph session, where everyone just chitchatted with them. Cute.

又软又甜的棉花糖

Havent blogged for quite some time. Been doing the later shift the past 2 weeks, quite tired. Nowadays, ever since started real work, haven't been listening to much music. Lost interest? I hope not!Oh no loss of interest is 1 symptom of depression! haha...

Came across this song on radio 1 day, and was wondering who's this singer? Quite comfortable and soothing, her voice. So finally found out it's this new group - 棉花糖. The song I heard was this.

棉花糖-陪你到世界的終結MV


According to yesasia.com, this guy-guitarist and girl-vocalist group were street musicians and have just released their new album - 小飛行. Am now listening to some of their songs on youtube - their songs are just like their group name - how apt - really as soft and sweet as cotton candy haha...finally can hear some fresh songs.. don;t know y recently the radio waves don't "excite" me.. save for sodagreen's new song which sounds traditional irish haha...

1 more song .
