JJ Lin Message in A Bottle and Music Knight Hits Deluxe Collection

  Today, I got the latest cd of JJ Lin that I have purchased online. Last month, I ordered 2 cd's of JJ Lin. I really did spend a lot buying JJ Lin's cd since they are not available in my country. I bought the cd's from online sellers abroad. They are from Malaysia, and Taiwan.

The first cd that has arrived, that was delivered on my doorstep is JJ Lin's Music Knight Hits Deluxe collection. It is packaged neatly in a box. This album has 3 cd's and a lyrics booklet. The 3 cd's are compilation of JJ Lin's songs from his his various album. This cd came from Malaysia.

The next cd that I bought was JJ Lin's 'Message in Bottle' (outer edition). The packaging was really nice. When you open the box, you will see a small bottle with a letter inside, written on it is a message that JJ wrote. The bottle is somewhat deformed. I have learned that the bottle was patterned after JJ Lin's grasp. (the way he's holding a bottle). So there's really an artistic touch to it. The cd comes with a lyric book, and a 7-11 small ad-paper of JJ Lin, about his message in a bottle album. The inner edition has no bottle included. This album by the way is a bit hard to find now. I am fortunate that I have found a seller from Taiwan who carries this outer edition cd.

I came to like JJ Lin above all Chinese artist, because he's really cute, especially when he smiles, and his dimples shows. He is a talented musician, and composer. Lastly, we share the same faith. I like his songs because they tell a story, and when he sings its really full of emotion. I came to know JJ Lin's music through a friend, who shared to me a video of JJ Lin and Charlene Choi of the Twins. The song is called, Little Dimples.(小酒窝). Other favorites of mine are Ta Shuo 她说,  Dou Jiang You Tiao 豆浆油条. etc. JJ Lin hails from Singapore, he is known as Wayne Lim by his closest friends and loved ones. If you haven't heard his music, please try to listen to it. Happy listening!

The Secret 消失爱人 (Xiao Shi Ai Ren) 2016 Movie Review

   Today, I saw 'The Secret', movie. This should not be confused with Jay Chou's, 'Secret', 2007 movie. The genre of this movie is a mixture of suspense/thriller, romance-drama movie. I decided to watch this movie mainly because of JJ Lin. He played the cousin of the protagonist in the movie. Yes, I'm fangirling now! I tell you people, I will make a review of JJ Lin's album next time, when my order arrives.

Anyway, back to the movie. (spoiler alert). The opening scene show a man which is played by Leon Lai, watching a tv program, about a supernatural expert talking about ghost/spirit. As the movie progresses we know that the wife of Leon Lai (Kai Feng) who is played by Wang Luodan (Qiu Jie) died due to a mountain climbing accident in the icy Himalayas. Kai Feng wakes up one day, he saw that his wife resurfaced. He can see her again. JJ Lin who played Leon Lai's cousin also can see her, and also Mumu, their son. The wife of JJ Lin was played by Sandrine Pinna. There is a twist in the movie, and I will not further spoil it for you. The movie is quite sentimental, and while watching it. I said to myself if only this is true. I also want to see my departed loved ones. (I miss my grandma, and aunt). But of course, this is only a movie. I also cried in some parts of the movie, near the ending scene, the graduation of Kai Feng and Qiu Jie's son, Mumu.

The movie also offers good songs. There's a song sung by Leon Lai, and of course by JJ Lin both are beautiful. I am familiar with Leon Lai, because my favorite female Chinese singer Vivian Chow had a duet with him wayback. They had this song in Cantonese, I just remember the title in English. 'There's True Love Tomorrow'. JJ Lin's song was played in the latter part of the movie. 只要有你的地方 (晚安版) By Your Side (Bedtime). The movie is not that heavy, it is in fact a light-hearted one, and it shows us that we must value and treasure the time we have with our loved ones.
