Penny's 3rd is a stage-Just Sing It

From PENNY(2000)'s experimental, to HOW(2001)'s tenderness, a year later 3rd album, JUST SING IT(2002) further up strengthen up her folk musical root. With her new found fame, she had been notice for being different from the mainstream artists. Not only she written and produce all her own works, which a very few managed to do so(at least in Manda-pop market). It shows her talents in all ways. She had successfully written out her biography through the songs she written. From her love, work and her opinion to life.

JUST SING IT is an album that continues Penny's favourite folk moves, and I will say its something in between both of her previous album. With the fusion trend heating up, she had infused hip-hop, reggae, electronic elements into her folk music and yet able to make it commercial enough to tapped into the mainstream.

She had once expressed it had to touched her before to touch others with those songs she wrote. So this 3rd album continues makes impression in public's heart. In the first single "TIME SPINS FAST"“时间快转”a playful country rock tune that keeps you up-going, and something differentiate her from the rest. A catchy lyrics that soon become a catch phrase among the youth, had made the song had made their say.

LOVED"爱过" the follow-up single, another ballad, bibio-crafted as like previous HOW《怎样》continueing the success with the message of never regrets being in love. Her singing ability also improves when she sing it out so prefectly. This is one good reason why she can sing so emotionally when she is singing her own stories. Another ballad which also hooked up with plenty of drama effects, is BLESSING FROM ACROSS THE STREET,街角的祝福. This is my favourite song of the album as the lyrics sadly crafting the scene of watch your ex with a new-found lover across the street, and nervous about how to react. With a clever arrangement of strings preformance (violins), it sets the mood of the song.

1999, 一九九九, a simple tune that story told Penny's musical diary when she started out being a musicians and ROAD,路, is a song of encouragement that to have faith in the route(dream) she is walking along. Both songs won her favor critics as a touching song that not about love.

With the end of the this album promotional works, she had left to start a new journey of her own by backpacking up to Africa. This had made to core idea to her next album "NO PENN NO GAIN"
