if you haven't heard about it, you must be living under a rock.
the legend is back with a rerecorded version of her red album, and damn, is that 10 min track banging.
all of a sudden i find myself transported back to the time when i was jamming out to her songs all week and through multiple months and years, in my bedroom, bathroom and in teo heng. listening to her past hits just made the lyrics flow - i don't know how and i don't know why, but the way she has with words and lyrics is just *chef's kiss* and honestly, a work of art.
in this album of hers, she has released some previously unreleased tracks and i find myself falling in love with how skillful she is yet again. personal favourites of mine are, obviously,
all too well (10 min version)
message in a bottle
state of grace
red
22
because who can leave out the hit songs?????
and personal favourite lines,
we're dancin' 'round the kitchen in the refrigerator light
you kept me like a secret but i kept you like an oath
so casually cruel in the name of being honest
but i'm in a new hell / every time you double-cross my mind
'cause there we are again when i loved you so / back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
loving him is like driving a new maserati down the dead-end street / faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly
and i've loved in shades of wrong
and what do you do when the one who means the most to you / is the one who didn't show?
does it make you feel sad / that the love that you're lookin' for / is the love that you had?

Situated in the sunny island of Singapore, Jolene recently (is 2 years considered recent?) graduated from university and is now working in a job she never expected herself to hold. Besides having frequent quarter-life crises, she also indulges in video games, anime, and aesthetic korean girls documenting their life in vlogs.
Although not as eloquent with words, she still aims to try her best to bring across her thoughts to the Internet.
