oic... i always thought that its like a guy thing where their girlfriends or the girl they like are usually shorter then them, so they are like protective... but then that means term of endearment is the words i'm lookin for!
I also wondered why they are a few songs on this album that says LH wrote the song and someone else translated it (not usually seen in his other albums is it?) and had my own theory that we might expect the english versions on his english album?! Haha... its just my theory only...

yeah, i reckon the english versions will be on his english album too.. he uses loads of black american slang in this album.. and jay actually had "shorty" in one of his songs, lou? which one? how come i never noticed? actually is this the only album tt the lyrics get translated? i'm sure there were songs in his past albums that get the same treatment as well.. i don't think "the one and only" and "two people do not equate to 'us'" is written in chinese from scratch.. because both songs tell a lot abt lee hom's personal emotions.. maybe he narrated wat he wanted in the content of the song to the lyricist? not sure..

Thanks Hom80 for explaining to the I think many many confused fans haha...especially in the song Girlfriend..were he goes 'come here shortieee"...I always think, I dun think a girl will be impressed by that haha...doesn't sound endearing to me!! I also think he writes the songs mainly in english and someone helps him translate into chinese, and are semi writing it, cause what sounds good in english may not in chinese? kinow what I mean? ? The jay song I am talking about, I dun know the name, I saw the mtv on tv once and it was the talking bit in the front of the mtv and they used the words...its the mtv that Jay fights these baddies to save a child I think, sorry hope that helps fayth.

Chris has been sucked into the black hole that is Australia teehee Just kidding....we are talking about the same chris (Christine right??) i agree with Lilian, it does sound silly cause it just doesn't make sense, how can the word shortie be used as a term of endearment haha I am 1.78cm tall and if my bf called me that I would laugh right in his face haha I'm sure its not meant to be analysed as such teehee...sure Hom meant no insult to the female population and if he does read it...I hope he doesn't read the posts were we are swooning over him teehee..dun want that head to get too big

Yeah I just watched that MTV too, and it was pretty good...I like the intro at the beginning.
This time round, his MV's are way better than the previous ones from the wei yi period...cause they have more of a story to them...not just him singing...
Does anyone know where I can dl a better version of the mtvs..cause the Sony site...the window to watch it is sooo tiny..and when you make it bigger it just gets blurry...

hmmm... don't think they will include it in the english album... a bit unorthodox to put chinese mvs into it... but i have been also hopinh that they will come up with a complilation of his mvs! it will be a coolectors item! not juz ones froms these few years but his really old ones, then we can really see the "evolution" of LH!! ;D

Today I listened to the whole cd for once and I thought the song 'Not Your Average Thug' sounds really different from leehom's normal voice. hm.. it sounds a little coarse. Do you all feel the same way? I'd never guess tat was him if I didn't get his cd. He sounds like someone, ronan keating? I can't recall but it really amazed me to see the different ways he expresses himself in different songs. The songs near the end too have different feels. I remember one song where he sang especially low. Really a variety of styles!

Yeah..when I first heard that song, cause I knew he sang with another guy, I thought it was the other guy singing most of the song...but if you listen really carefully you can tell its mostly LH and the other guy on back up..also sometimes I think they have layered the two voices together to create a very different sound..
But his voice goes through a variety of transitions in this CD, which is great.
I think the song where he sings really low is --> Can you feel my world.
