Super Junior M - Me (Korean version)


This is a repost. I've deleted the previous link, and added this one, which is the Korean version and has 3 bonus tracks (in Korean).

Super Junior M is the Chinese language (Mandarin) spinoff of the group Super Junior. Comprising original Super Junior members - Hangeng, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook & Kyuhyun, the new spin-off group includes 2 new Chinese members - Henry (the Canadian-Chinese young prodigy who appeared in the Don't Don! video playing the violin) and Zhuomi.

Unlike the other two Super Junior spin-offs, Super Junior K.R.Y. and Super Junior T, which focused primarily on ballads and trot respectively, Super Junior M is basically like its original group, but uses Mandarin as its language. Some of the tracks are just Mandarin versions of Super Junior hits, but there are new songs written especially for this project, including Me and The one, written for the Beijing Olympics.

1. Me
2. U
3. At least I still have you
4. Miracle
5. Love song
6. In my arms
7. Don't Don
8. Marry U
9. Full of happiness
10. A man in love
11. The moment
12. The one
13. Me (Korean version)
14. At least I still have you (Korean version)
15. Love song (Korean version)

Love Of Siam soundtrack


Love of Siam is an award-winning thai movie. Billed as a romantic drama, it's basically a story about family, friendship and love.

It revolves around 2 childhood best friends who rekindled their close friendship after being apart for many years. Now in their teens, Mew is pursuing his goal of being a singer and composer, yet is having difficulty writing love songs because he has never been in love. Tong, due to family problems, changed from an initially active boy to a pensive teen with a lot of questions on his life. A chance meeting brought both boys together and the close friendship they once shared turned into something deeper, resulting in distinct changes in their lives. For Mew, he is finally able to express his love in songs and for Tong, it seems that he has finally found the answer to his life. A shared first kiss witnessed by Tong's mother didn't go well, and she begged Mew to stop the relationship.

Things began to go downhill as the request seemed to take a negative toll on everything. However, due to constant support from friends, things began to get better as both boys realised that love lives in many forms and not being together in a relationship doesn't necessarily mean that the love they feel for each other is absent. I was told many people felt cheated watching this movie because they didn't go to the cinema to watch a gay film. To me, this film deals with a lot of questions teenagers have about growing up and developing a relationship, being with family, friends and lovers.

I tried to purchase this soundtrack but was informed it wasn't in stock. I downloaded this from the net, but just want to share it with you. Hope you enjoy it. I don't speak Thai, but that didn't stop me from appreciating the music and the performance.

Jangan Kau Mimpi - Sarah

Sarah Raisuddin is the daughter of 80s pop star Raisuddin Hamzah. Both Sarah and her father were finalists in Bintang RTM, the former in 2001 and the latter in 1985. The song, Jangan Kau Mimpi is taken from her second release Mimpi Pun Sama and begins with a killer bassline reminiscent of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. This is a special request from a friend. Enjoy. If anyone is interested in more Sarah songs, please write comments.
