Jay's third album

After 10 months, Jay came out with another new album, the third one, named "The Eight Dimensions". Vincent Fang is getting more important in Jay's music because the lyrics he wrote suited the music that Jay composed, they are still partners even until today.




Release date: 19th July 2002
The third album from Jay Chou, this album promises to take you to the eight dimensions. As usual all the tracks are composed by Jay, the lyrics are written mainly by his best partner Vincent Fang with contributions from his friend Will Liu and also Xu Shi Chang who won a contest to have his lyrics used. The album features the now famous r&b style combined with the creative lyrics. The album comes with a long movie version of the music video for The Final Battle as well as a video diary accounting the filming.

1.The Orcs (半獸人) (ban shou ren) (Warcraft III: Reign Of Chaos)
2.The Iron Box Of The Island (半島鐵盒) (ban dao tie he)
3.Secret Signal (暗號) (an hao)
4.Dragon Fist (龍拳) (long quan)
5.Where Is The Train Going? (火車叨位去) (heu chia deo wi ky) (Taiwanese)
6.Split (分裂) (fen lie) (also known as Leave/離開(li kai))
7.The Tea Grandpa Makes (爺爺泡的茶) (ye ye pao de cha)
8.Go Back To The Past (回到過去) (hui dao guo qu)
9.Milan's Small Ironsmith (米蘭的小鐵匠) (mi lan de xiao tie jiang)
10.The Final Battle (最後的戰役) (zui hou de zhan yi)


The song I like the most in this album is "Go Back To The Past". It mentioned about how much one person wants to go back to the past, when the boy/girlfriend is still with her/him. The fact is that they can't go back, but to forget each others' faces slowly. Basically an "emo" song. 


Another song that I like is "The Final Battle". It is a really meaningful song! It is about two friends, going to battle. They help each other as they come from the same place. When the war is about to end, one friend died. Another one feel very helpless but can only cry. Only one of them can go back to their home country.  


Enjoy his third album! :))
