So he is busy (the name of his album, literally translated from Chinese, "I am very busy" -- official English name is "On the Run" ). When I first listened to his first song "Cowboy is busy", I was a bit worried that this album is going to suck very bad. But, I guess we all need time to digest any new attempts. After a while, this song is not bad at all. His way of singing is definitely new, very child-like and brisk. In fact I think this album is somehow better than the last one (is it just my illusion). Let's have a look at the songs in this album. "Cowboy is busy" as the name implies the music mixes country music and R&B. I think like it or not can be quite personal. "Rainbow", "Dandelion promise" and "The longest movie" are certainly his trademark of love songs - he sings softly and deeply with the background music of guitar or piano. "Blue and white porcelain" is certainly my favourite out of this album - Chinese traditional instrument music! "Sunlight dwelling male" (translated using a dictionary...) is very rock & roll, and very youthful. I guess the song is about those guys who have tons of gadgets and never leave their home or their nest. I guess he is singing about me. "Unique" probably would remind of a lot of people of his old songs like "Double sticks", so there is no surprise there. "Pull" is actually also my favourite. I guess I feel quite fresh of this song. Maybe he never tried this type of song before, or maybe I am wrong. Anyway, I like the whole album. Personally, I really think it is better than his last one.

i like Jay also but prefer some of his old trademark love songs =)
I am not sure about this new cd yet. As you know I am a huge fan of him but this cd is different. I think I disagree about the former cd. That one's very good. But I will give this new one a chance.
