After the 2 hugely success of the "Concert Hall I & II" albums, which had crowned him the 2 years in a row of best selling artist in Hong Kong region 2005 & 2006, he had return with a loud bang of this new album of 2007, My Cup Of Tea.
The first single "Will the flowers still falls"花落誰家, written to go with the Earth Day theme, hoping to awakes us to take care our earth. It solves his fans hunger for Hacken's new song, but didn't manages to create much of buzz in the charts. A regular ballads melody but very meaningful lyrics. The loud splashs comes from the 2nd single, "Time of an Era"歲月風雲 the theme song of the TVB this year biggest drama series, by the same name. A crossover of of mandarin and cantonese duet with 周傳雄 reassemble the meaning of the tv series, a cooperation betweeen the hong kong and china tv station to mark the 10th anniversary of reunion of Hong Kong district to mainladn China.
Having a group of remarkable musician behind the album's production team had become a signature in Hacken's album. This time he intro us to the new raising star of violinist David Garrett. He soon making a headlines in comtempory music scene in asia. Watch out people...Maksim are no longer in trend. Haha.. David Garrett's appearance gives the song "紙婚paper wedding" a very classical touch. this track proves that this album is not a regular Hacken Lee albums, but also up to standard and with a very classy, french-up, cafe-rized mood.
To celebrate the involvement of these great musicians from the retired 顧嘉煇, Eric Kwok, Hong Kong Sinfonietta香港小交響樂團、馮翰銘(piano)、 蘇德華(guitar)、Anna Kwan(violin)、Mathew Wu(flute)、李嘉齡....etc The bonus DVD comes with 3 music videos, and a mix of different versions of the songs using different intrsutments as a choice to listener to choose. A new approach that been made.
