Anggun

I spent the whole day scouring the internet for Anggun's latest tunes coz the the new album will only reach the asia market in december. Not exactly a futile search. I found tons of blogs linking to a whole lot of her tunes. The catch? A whole bunch of these websites, made a disclaimer stating that the songs are meant for personal preview. Some even made a side note to encourage the 'real fans' to buy her original stuffz. Whilst the rest are super protective of their idol, they totally disabled the right-click function on the song links. WOWWWW. How cool is it to have fans who are super protective of your work that they would go to such lengths to make sure that people do not keep ripping off your music as and when they like for free, and not to mention, illegally.

I would wholeheartedly support the move, if only the songs aren't so inaccesible in sg. Damn. It sure doesn't help when I found out that there was a limited edition version of Luminiscence which features a couple of songs that I love. And obviously I wasn't able to get my hands on that album coz they only churn out 3000 copies and probably have them sold in France only. The latest album also has a limited edition version which I won't be able to get my hands on either. I checked amazon.com, they are not in stock (and even then, I don't understand why some CDs are steeply priced on that website).

So I can only count on the album to be released in asia by december, of which I can be positively sure is just the one comprising tunes in English and Bahasa Indonesia. And none in French. Ergh. Not that I understand French but when it comes to Anggun, I have to listen to her tunes in all three languages. It's more complete that way. I dunno how to explain but that's just how it is. Maybe Anggun should just package her albums in ALL THREE LANGUAGES and sell them all across the globe.
