New Song: "Uninhabited Territory" (無人之境)

A new Cantonese song by Eason Chan was plugged today, titled Uninhabited Territory (無人之境), lyrics as follows and a sample at the end.

無人之境
Composer: Eric Kwok
Lyrics: Wyman Wong
Arranger: Eric Kwok

讓理智在叫著冷靜冷靜
還恃住年少氣盛
讓我對著衝動背著宿命
渾忘自己的姓
沉睡的凶猛在蘇醒
完全為你現形
這個世界最壞罪名 叫太易動情
但我喜歡這罪名

驚天動地只可惜天地亦無情
不敢有風 不敢有聲
這愛情無人証
飛天遁地貪一刻的樂極忘形
好想說謊 不眨眼睛
這愛情無人性

讓世界陷進大騙局裡面
朋友亦難以發現
共你隔著空在袐密通電
挑戰道德底線
如若早三五年相見
何來內心交戰
我信與你繼續亂纏
難再有發展
但我想跟你亂纏

驚天動地只可惜天地亦無情
不敢有風 不敢有聲
這愛情無人証
飛天遁地貪一刻的樂極忘形
好想說謊 不眨眼睛
似進入無人境

即使間整個約會情調幽暗似地下城
還是算溫馨
多麽想跟你散步橋上把臂看著風景
但是我清醒
月亮總不肯照亮情慾深處那道背影
你我像快快樂樂同遊在異境
浪漫到一起惹絕症

不想說明 只想反應

Recap of Eason Chan at "Pax Musica 2009"

Yesterday, Hong Kong singer Eason Chan took part in Japan's Pax Musica Concert, in its 25th year, held at the Tokyo International Forum (東京國際論壇館). Pax Musica was founded by Shinji Tanimura, veteran of the Japanese music industry, in 1984 along with Korea's Cho Yong-pil and Hong Kong's Alan Tam. The motto "Asians, We Are One" was used to promote international cultural exchange and world peace.

According to Universal Music Group, Eason was treated cordially by the organizers as he was the only artist who brought along his own band. During the night Eason performed seven songs, including Stevie Wonder's Lately (a duet with Korean artist July) and the Japanese song Mr. Lonely (in Japanese).

Also noted by Universal Music, Ikuro Fujiwara (soundtrack producer of the film Painted Skin (畫皮)) was in attendance at the concert and expressed to a Universal Music employee, "Eason's performance was full of energy and enthusiasm, he is an infectious stage performer."

Through Universal Music, Eason expressed he had hoped to perform on stage in Japan many years ago and he finally got the chance. He also promised he would find time in the future to meet with fans who are in Japan. His next goal is to hold a concert at Nippon Budokan (日本武道館).

An Obession With "Orphan" 孤兒仔

You are not "Alone"

A neighborhood residents committee in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province is working to broaden the musical tastes and reduce the volume of an unidentified woman who has reportedly been playing the same song repeatedly for two years.

The tune is "Alone" by Hong Kong Cantopop singer Eason Chan, a mellow popular tune he recorded in the early 2000s.

"I used to like it," said one apartment resident named Chen who lives below the "Alone"-obsessed woman. "But now the song makes me sick when I hear it."

Chen said the neighbors have asked her many times to tone it down, but the Chan devotee refused, saying playing loud music isn't against any law.

With only a few hours break per day from her well-learned melody, wasn't she bored? Didn't she want to listen to anything else? Chen said he asked her.

He said she replied, "It's very beautiful."

Shin Seung-hoon Will Appear in Asian Music Gala in Japan
By Lee Hyo-won

South Korea's "king of ballads," Shin Seung-hoon, will appear at Pax Musica 2009, a pan-Asian music festival taking place Sunday in Japan, before the release of his new mini-album on Nov. 12.

The festival, meaning "peace through music" in ancient Greek, is an international event that was launched in 1984 featuring Korea's veteran singer Cho Yong-pil, Japan's Shinji Tanimura and Hong Kong's Alan Tam. It has since attracted the region's top talents, such as Andy Lau, F4 and Jackie Chan.

The 13th edition of Pax Musica, hosted by Fuji TV, will open at the 5,000-seat A Hall of Tokyo Forum. Besides Shin, local stars, including former GOD member Son Ho-young and former Fin.K.L member Ock Ju-hyun, will sing songs.

Shin will perform songs including "Love of Iris," the romantic theme song of the popular ongoing TV series "Iris." The 41-year-old singer-songwriter will also showcase "I Believe," which appeared on the soundtrack of the hit romantic comedy "My Sassy Girl."

The event will also feature TV personality Yoon Sang-hyun, who gained popularity through dramas including "My Fair Lady." Also to take the stage are Hong Kong's top male singer Eason Chan and Taiwan's popular entertainer Rainie Yang.

The festival will be televised through Fuji TV.

Meanwhile, Shin will reveal his new mini-album "Love O'Clock" through a showcase Nov. 11, and release tracks both on and offline the following day.

Upcoming Cantonese EP and New Song

As Eason mentioned earlier, he was simultaneously recording a new Cantonese EP while he was recording Fifth Floor's Happiness. There are now rumors that Eason will release that EP December 2009.

In this month's JET Magazine, Wyman Wong reveals that he created a "platter" of songs for Eason. The first song of the "platter" was 葡萄成熟時, followed by 人車誌 and 沙龍, the upcoming song will be 陀飛輪 (Tourbillon (mechanics of a watch)), all of which revolve around grown men toys/playthings.

In a discussion among fans, these are the grown men toys/playthings revolving around the "platter" of songs:
葡萄成熟時 - red wine
人車誌 - cars
沙龍 - cameras
陀飛輪 - watches

Also previously rumored was a song (composed by Eric Kwok and lyrics by Wyman) which revolves around the topic of 'having an affair.'

Eason to Join Will Lin in "Jumping Into the Ocean"

Yesterday, Eason Chan was at a press conference in Taiwan promoting his latest album Fifth Floor's Happiness (上五樓的快活) where he performed 3 songs off the album.

Earlier, producer Will Lin stated that if Eason Chan's doesn't win a Golden Melody Award for Best Composer or Best Male Singer next year for his work in Fifth Floor's Happiness, he will jump into the ocean. Upon being informed of Will Lin's confidence, Eason said, "Wow, Taiwan people are fierce! I will join him." Eason pretended to be serious when speaking of the plans and goes into detail, from choosing the right place to jump from to having the correct outfits and whether to invite the media. He even mentioned he would wear a tight outfit or even wear zebra print.
