Jun 7th, 2008 | By andy | Category: Featured Articles, Music, VideoHere are couple of albums that I am really looking forward to buying. What are some of the albums/artists you are desperately waiting for?
Alex Vol. 1 - My Vintage Romance
This is Alex’s first album. I always loved Clazziquai and have all of their albums. I recently watched him in the Korean TV program called ‘We Got Married’. I can’t wait!

Written in collaboration with Yoo Hee Yeol (a.k.a. Toy), the principal track An nyeong na euh sarang (”Goodbye, My Love” - Track 4) bears sadness beneath the upbeat melody. As if making his personal farewell, the song rolls out heartfelt lyrics like “this could be my last gift to you” and “it’ll be okay, goodbye my love”. In addition, the titular song Here In My Heart (Track 1) is a modern folk ballad written by Yoo. Besides Sung’s own creative contribution, many noteworthy talents also participated in the making, namely, Kim Hyun Cheol, Kim Kwang Jin, Noh Young Shim, Hwang Sae Joon, and Lee Seong Hwan. Other highlights include pop ballad Noon bu shin go baek (”Luminous Confession” - Track
and pop oldie Geu dae wah choom eul (”Dance With You” - Track 6).
Here is Sung Si Kyung’s performance from back in 2006.
