he's just a great singer~~ the way he presents his voice is absolutely perfect n 'mi ren'.. hohoho!!!
DERRICK HOH 何维健 first Debut Album - 無法歸類!!!
anyway, 恭喜何小弟!等了那麼久… 真的好久好久… 終於發片咯!
after lettin us wait for 3yrs, it's finally his turn to release his very first album... wooh00!! do support him ppl!
I believe the sales of his 1st album in Singapore will pave the way for him to expand into the very tough Taiwan and Greater China market.
there r a total of 11songs in this album.. all of them r just so perfectly presented by him.. the flow of the songs just went automatically recorded in ur ears after the 2nd time when i listened.. loves~~ ^^
some intro to the tracks in these album:
Track 1: 无法归类Unclassified
Smart move to launch the new Derrick with this title track. The Derrick we all knew from Project SuperStar was a ‘sentimental song fellow’ and this came as a real surprise and really a good big bang move. Catchy danceable song which you will fall in love with from the 1st time hearing it. Some people may compare this track to many of Show 罗志祥 genre of songs but I am all praises for this effort. How often do you get a local guy on the same level as any Taiwanese dance idol? I can hear hormone-raging girls screaming whenever this song is played… It exactly spells the return of a Superstar 偶像.
Track 2: 踫碰爱Knock-Out Love
Another good dance track with ‘High-School Musical’ fan girls in mind…how not to love Derrick when he comes alive as good as any foreign idols? Plus, this fellow can really sing. Again, fell in love at 1st hearing…
Track 3: 你走天桥 我走地下道 Overhead Bridge, Underground Pass
This is ‘Unclassified’ 2nd most heavily promoted song now running on radio airwaves. The recording label probably wanted to introduce the sentimental side of Derrick after the first dance burst but…come on, Derrick is capable of more depth and challenges (you ever heard his great rendition of 很想你)? hang on~~ there are many more better tracks in this album besides this..
Track 4: 今天过去 After Today
can feel his ‘story-telling’ expression in his interpretation.. nice melody~~
Track 5: 我捨不得Can’t Let Go
Every ‘marks and symbols’ of the same old Derrick is here. I never like any singer trying to fake emotions for something they have never gone through. Derrick who broke up with his gf is believable in his singing here.
Track 6: 咬字 Pronunciation
What a gem! Music and lyrics by Derrick himself, this cheeky song expresses what was said about him by the judges during the competition. Another heavily promoted song to come…This is what made Derrick different from the other ‘superstars’ – his sense of playfulness adds colors to his life as an artiste.
Track 7: 忘得掉 Forget
this song written by Project SuperStar Hagen 陈孟奇... can sense tat he's the compose just by listenin to the rhythm alone.. haha...
Track 8: 我相信I Believe
This Korean track should have been the 2nd most heavily promoted track. A catchy song...Easily a chart-buster given enough airplay. This is where Derrick’s identity comes out well. Havin heard it the first time, i fell in love with it..^^
Track 9: 我的连续剧My Story
Another good effort. This boy-man persona of Derrick is coming through well in this track.
Track 10: 逆时针忘记Anti-Clockwise
A song best enjoyed with a glass of wine in hand in the middle of a quiet night…very ‘un-Derrick’ right? Not a strong track for heavy promotion but suitable for an end album order… Surprisingly, he is very good in this track (didn’t I say earlier that Derrick is capable of more in-depth songs?).
Track 11: 克罗地亚的天空Croatia Sky
Another Derrick’s self-penned song and boy…I am brought back to the glory days when Derrick sang his heart out during PSS. This is the Derrick I like and he is back – a much better one this time.
There you have it – all 11 tracks of very dedicated effort.
A slicker Derrick, a boy-to-man persona and a brave young composer worthy of mass adolation again. This album certainly deserves a 5 out of 5 star ratings. We don’t get many deserving 创作偶像 these days but Derrick’s debut comes along and is certainly worthy of one. Overall, if you like stylish K-Pop, Derrick gives you what you want and a little more.
‘Unclassified’ Derrick? I hereby classify you as worthy of the 创作偶像 title.
Congratulations, Derrick – 你是新加坡的小骄傲!Loves^^
