 |  | Make Your Day a 'Sunny Day' and Give This a Listen! |  |
I love CoCo Lee's voice, having heard her sing the theme song in the movie 'Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.' But her English album, although cute and likeable, wasn't exactly a very strong - or well-selling - performance.
But Sunny Day definitely shows off the versatility of her smooth voice. The title track, like many others on this album, is a ballad-ish song, where Coco's vocal gymnastics float lightly above an acoustic background. 'Feelin' Good,' 'Diamond,' 'Don't Wanna Play,' and 'Wu Wu la la La' are more playful, poppy tunes, and 'Colors of the World' is a fairly upbeat pop song with international influence.
Now, one song I just have to point out - you may recognize 'Reflection' as a Mandarin version of the Christina Aguilera song of the same name, which was featured in Disney's Mulan. Personally, I like CoCo's version better. It doesn't sound as soulful and passionate as Aguilera's performance, but rather, more resigned and regretful.
All in all, Sunny Day is definitely worth a listen!
