Who
Are You?
Joey's return
to the silver screen in the 1996 Japanese production, Peking
Geijin: Who Are You? brought with it an added treat...Joey
sang the title song and two CDs (a CD single and Extended CD)
were released.
Rather than
bore you (okay...rather than bore you anymore than I may already
have) with a highly biased and ever changing review of each song
on these CDs, my overall opinion is that Joey could sneeze, cough
and just breath on a CD and I'd still buy it. With that aside,
I must admit that when I first heard Who
Are You? I
was somewhat disappointed in Joey's singing abilities. However
as time has passed I've come to fall in love with Joey's voice
as much I have the rest of her! *BLUSH*
Overall,
I prefer the faster paced songs to the slow ballads and her singing
in her native Mandarin is much more "natural" sounding
than her singing in Japanese (for a good example, watch Peking
Geijin: Who Are You?, in which Joey speaks in both Mandarin
and Japanese. Her Mandarin is naturallly much more fluid than
her Japanese).
