New Season
Kym Jin Sha
First thought on seeing the Singapore edition bonus best-of disc: Does she have that much material? The answer: Not really, as it comprises tracks from her previous two albums Unbelievable (2006) and Air (2005), neither of which left much of an impression.
Alas, there’s nothing very distinctive about album number three either, filled as it is with lightweight, lacklustre fare. Besides, isn’t the 23-year-old lass too old to be singing A Girl Blooms At 18?
This is not the kind of consistency an artiste wants and there's nothing here for her to stand out in the sweet stakes.
