Weekly Music Video

I just wrote my Best of 2020 post the other day, but then I realised there is one more post to go before the end of the year! Never mind, lol. Hope everyone had a good Christmas or other festival if you celebrated another one. :) 

Today's music video is 1 Lần by Trọng Hiếu.  His full name is Nguyen Trong Hiếu and he is a German singer with Vietnamese heritage. Like in other Asian countries, in Vietnam the surname/family name is written first, so Nguyen is his surname.

Trong was the winner and runner up in several German/European dance competitions, including Kitzinger Dance Contests and Dance4Fans, and also won Vietnam Idol in 2015. He has also performed with American singer Britney Spears

I can't find much info about Trong in English, but I've used Google Translate for some information! His singles include 1 Lần, Invisible, ĂN ĐI CHO SƯỚNG and his latest NGƯỜI BAY which came out in October. I believe he sings primarily in Vietnamese. 

1 Lần is about love and honouring the natural beauty of a woman. How he loves her for who she is (a masterpiece). Great message! It was released in September 2017. There are English and German subtitles/closed captions available. :)

It's New Year's Eve tomorrow (or already in some countries), so Happy New Year! Wishing that 2021 will be better for everyone. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
