No more joker, here come Dragon Warrior. Capricorn now known as Long Zhan Qi Shi.</p><p>All the track titles are changed except 1, Dao Xiang (Fragrant Rice).</p><p>Quite surprising why they redo these, maybe they afraid the leaked album will have a lot of impact on the sales. By changing the whole things from cover to track titles, this will force the fans to get the &#8220;real&#8221; thing.</p><p>Here are the tracks:</p><p><span

Gei Wo Yi Shou Ge De Shi Jian 給我一首歌的時間 (Give Me A Song’s Time) was 女儿红 nü r hong (Red Daughter)</p><p>3. She Wu 蛇舞 (Snake Dance) was 东方之殿 dong fang zhi dian (Place of the Oriental)</p><p>4. Hua Hai 花海 (Flower Ocean) was 红楼梦中 hong lou meng zhong (Dream of the Red Mansion)</p><p>5. Mo Shu Xian Sheng 魔術先生 (Mr. Magic) was 失恋的青蛙 shi lian de qing wa (Lovelorn Frog)</p><p>6. Shuo Hao De Xing Fu Ne 說好的幸福呢 (Where is the Promised Happiness) was 失落非主流 shi luo fei zhu liu (Lost Mainstream)</p><p>7. Lan Ting Xu 蘭亭序 (Orchid Pavilion) was 从新爱 cong xin ai (New Love)</p><p>8. Liu Lang Shi Ren 流浪詩人 (Wander Poet) was 大灌蓝 da lang guan(Big Dunk)</p><p>9. Shi Guang Ji 時光機 (Time Machine) was 达芬奇的画布 da fen qi de hua bu (Leonardo Da Vinci’s Canvas)</p><p>10.

It has eleven tracks and a very &#8220;unusual&#8221; cover. Maybe it&#8217;s influenced by his recently magic lesson.</p><p>Surprisingly the first track (魔杰座) is quite normal compared to 2 previous albums and I like it a lot. On track three (東方之殿), egyptian like rap song really don&#8217;t suite my taste.</p><p>東方之殿 is the third track. Not a song that can be enjoyed for me.</p><p>Despite of the fourth track position, 紅樓夢中 is a very nice love song like other Jay Chou&#8217;s hit.</p><p>Track five, &#8220;失戀的青蛙&#8221; is the icon of the album. Started with dialog and opened with a cowboy style like previous album. The song is an uptempo and have an ambient like a high school performance style with clapping sound. Unique and entertaining.</p><p>The best song is track number 6 (失落非主流), really touchy and shiver me when I first hear it.</p><p><span
id="more-390"></span>從新愛, track 7, started with an Er Hu as opening and flowing as background accompaniment with some rap at the interlude. Great song, very suitable for a kung-fu themed movie.</p><p>Harmonica dominate the start of track 8 (大灌藍), a duet song. &#8220;Bad boy&#8221; style. Not very good, just acceptable.</p><p>Track 9, 達芬奇的畫布, a med tempo lovely song. Like it.</p><p>小丑, track 10, a rap style song with joker&#8217;s laugh at the background. Pretty plain and boring.</p><p>The last but not the least, 稻香 (Fragrant Rice). It suppose to be the icon of the album. Just OK lah for this track.</p><p>Personally, after reviewing these song, 4 out of 5 for this album. Guess If you are a Jay Chou&#8217;s fan, you&#8217;ll get the album despite of my review.</p><p><strong>Update</strong>: Fixed track 10 name</p><p><strong>Update 2</strong>: Looks like my copy is shifted 1 track. Track 1 shifted to track 11 and other shifted up.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://benzwu.com/2008/09/jay-chous-capricorn-review/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
