Album Review

By Jocelle Koh

Olivia’s latest album captures all the emotions that come with the first stage of love: Romance. The euphoria, giddiness, excitement, the overthinking on the girl’s part… you know the rest. Anyway, WILL PENG 仔仔, an amazing producer has worked closely on this album with Olivia and oversaw the entire production process. Olivia also participated in the creative process with a few of these songs, by writing lyrics and melodies for the songs. As a thoroughly enjoyable album should, it has a theme which is shown throughout the duration of the album and is a eclectic mix of genres, a leap which is made seemingly effortless by Olivia’s vocals and Will Peng’s production skills. My favourites include <Ready For Love> which brings out the colour and excitement of Romance, while <Sing> is a slightly jazzy piece about the impulses of Romance. Another one of my favourites is <Back To Life>, a RnB piece with meaningful lyrics and a catchy tune.  Flawless and a must buy both for fans and listeners!
