どっき♥どきプレゼント～！o(*´∀｀)o゛

Today~ a gift♥ from Paul-kun arrived~!。。。o(*´∀｀)o゛when I was unable to attend the Anime Expo held earlier this year in L.A. (;_;) he was so *thoughtful* as he was thinking about sending me some items from the event...before we even spoke~ (*´∀｀*)！Hmm..there's sort of a story of how these became delayed but it was so much my fault (ノロ≦。)！A~h! so many items that Paul-kun sent and I want to say *thank you*~! so much!! you're such a wonderful friend~ o(*´∀｀)o゛ ！W~ah! I really can't say *thank you* enough~!! ＾　＾！

The two Momusu photo sets are absolutely gorgeous~ and I especially love Gakki and Kamei's! and Junjun's and Aichan's and Reinachan's and....hm I love~ them all。。。(。ーωー。)♪♪～ *Thank you* so much for my very first Hangry & Angry photo set~ ＼(^o^)／☆。。Yossi and Rikachan look so wickedly great~! A~h the Momusu in USA event shirt might appear a bit strange above but it's because it's folded over in one corner and I'm really hesitant to actually wear it as I'm thinking of it as more of a collector's item~ (^-^*)。I love the mirrored logo...so *pretty* ne~!

I imagine that everyone who attended the expo must own these but I scanned them anyway just below...just click on any individual photo card image for a larger image size~.....




Paul-kun was so *sweet* to also include the CD of a Chinese artist that he's really fallen in love with recently~ as he's always experiencing so much new music♪♪～ I think~! (￣▽￣)♥ I've been listening♪～♪♪～♪♪～一日中～！ヽ(。´▽`。)ノ。。！I only own one other Chinese pop album from awhile back by Sandy Lam although she's singing in mostly English so today's listening♪ was so much a new experience for me~....the artist is "Rainie" pronounced ”レイにー。ヤン” as her full name~. This is a Japanese release but all tracks are sung in Chinese which is really so sweet♥ with it's softness and *swishy*♥ pronunciations ＾　＾。

Rainie's album is titled "Dokodemo Door" (as translated into Japanese~) and includes 10 tracks and an additional DVD with seven of her music♥videos~!! It's sometimes a bit rare when an entire album plays through so catchy~ and "Dokodemo Door" does just that so much~!!

Rainie's vocals encompasses such natural vocal control and elegant nuances~ with a most *sweet* falsetto~♪♪ and yet she projects powerfully when the melody calls for it~! Such amazing range and *feel* in her voice~ and it translates so well to this album's collection of beautiful contemporary ballads to a most lively side of pop~ which delves into an almost nostalgic retro early 90's sound at times...all the while keeping its modern edge~.

Below I've chosen two very different music videos which have nearly polar opposite musical arrangements to accompany them in hopes of *sharing* a wider scope of her music both visually/musically and both are from the included DVD~ which is purely awesome~!!! One is a most sweet♥ contemporary pop ballad while the second pv has a so awesome break in the middle sandwiched between all of the high energy *cuteness*!!! Both pvs have an amazing production behind them and they're so truly unique and so so creative....you'll see what I'm speaking of when you click below to play~! ↓↓

At first I was thinking I would include my most favorite♥ songs here but then her entire album is so *amazing*!! so instead I included the first eight tracks of "Dokodemo Door" and they're just below the pvs~....kiite ne~! o(*´∀｀)o゛ (all song titles are in their Japanese translated forms~)

Rainie Yang's CD+DVD release album can be ordered here at Cdjapan.
