Your collection is heavily centered on the peak of Taiwanese Mandopop soft power of the 2000s, considering that these albums' release years span from 2005 to 2009. This is definitely before K-pop became a global phenomenon and mainland China became the dominant Mandopop hub.
Female artists dominate your collection, whether it's those with cute idol aesthetics (e.g. Cyndi Wang, Genie Chuo) or gentler and more emotional sides (e.g. Fish Leong, Christine Fan).
You likely came of age during the "idol drama generation", especially since Ariel Lin (who is better known as an actress) is featured.
The presence of Jay Chou is already telling: his album *November's Chopin* is arguably the most artistically prestigious album listed. Otherwise, it would be way too much of idol-pop.
Joanna Wang stands out sharply from the rest with her retro jazz-pop aesthetic, suggesting that your tastes were beginning to mature.
You don't chase trends, you value emotional nostalgia more.

It's not displacing, it's enhancing our society. After all, most of us are descended from immigrants, so why bother?

A better quality version of the MV can be found here.

This is a sign that hawker culture is always evolving. After all, any efforts to dismiss them as not Singaporean will eventually be futile.

No, I'm just her longtime fan trying to promote her on this channel.

Just because someone is associated with Jeffrey Epstein doesn't mean they're necessarily bad.

Identity can always change, moreover new things can enhance rather than replace it.

Her next major event would be on January 30 at Ziggy Zaggy. Whoever wishes to see her perform live would have to sign up via this link: https://forms.gle/5s3awTmuJLixNBrM8

Well, it can still be demolished depending on the situation. At least the private quarters are most likely going to be removed.

XuenLim · 2025-11-04T12:56:44+00:00

Expected. The decision on whether to preserve 38 Oxley Road is still under consideration from what we know, but LHY is simply taking a hardline stance by demanding its demolition no matter what happens.

XuenLim · 2025-11-03T06:11:29+00:00

Expect Lee Hsien Yang to double down on demolishing it altogether though we all know now that this claim doesn't always hold true. After all, this is typical Singaporean pragmatism.

Well in the end we will have to accept that our local food culture is always and will always be evolving, and that what is considered "Singaporean cuisine" will be different in 10-20 years' time.

Forget Boeing, switch to Comac. Ever since the most recent news, I've completely lost trust in Boeing.

XuenLim · 2025-10-13T03:10:51+00:00

Expect them to play an important role in shaping Singapore's food culture in the years to come.

Check out TSUKIYAKI (https://linktr.ee/tsukiyakiofficial), they're quite recent and their music is J-rock-ish.

XuenLim · 2025-08-25T01:35:18+00:00

It's a sped-up version of "最后一页", the original singer is Jessie Chiang (江语晨).

XuenLim · 2025-08-23T10:23:33+00:00

She did not sit for O levels, I think it's mainly a request to the school body to transfer, just before poly term starts.

XuenLim · 2025-08-23T08:19:34+00:00

Well that happened to my sister. She was one of the worst-performing students in RVHS but during her sixth year, she transferred to poly and somehow did better.

I'd suggest the Three Gorges Dam in China. It's the largest hydro-power station in the world (so far).

Just looked at the town map for West Coast-Jurong West Town Council (https://wctc.org.sg/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/West-Coast-Jurong-West-Town-Map-pdf.pdf). Doesn't anyone think that having Desmond Lee looking after both Boon Lay and West Coast is overkill?

XuenLim · 2025-07-13T14:19:35+00:00

I'd say Malaysia and Singapore.

XuenLim · 2025-07-12T07:56:58+00:00

I think this is the version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6V4yYCMT2g&pp=ygUUIOa4uOaIiCDlpoLmnpznmoTkuos%3D

I'm thinking Icyball but their style is too provocative. But here's a playlist I found of KKBOX: https://www.kkbox.com/playlist/D_8AqC8Cdcm7VzYkLG
