Jay Chou's New Album: Capricorn

I am not happy that Jay Chou's new album ("Capricorn") is coming out soon. Not happy at all because I'm fighting these battling feelings of ambivalence -- should I buy it? Or should I not. I wanna get his new songs and hopefully be musically enlightened. At the same time, I'm terrified of disappointment, a la his last album. But I'm really excited! It's magically themed and we all know how proficient Mr. Chou is in magic. I quote from some forum -- "Jay Chou has also written a "magic" song in his new album, there's also a song about the "joker", the two songs even reveal the exciting interaction between the magician and the joker, it's very dramatic." So perhaps there will be outstanding arrangements and amazing lyrics. Having said that, the last time he tried something new, ie the cowboy song, it turned out disastrous.

Argh.

Ok. I shall risk my already fragile impression of Jay Chou (refer to my previous Jay Chou post) and just go get that album. It's been less than a year since his last one and I guess I'm willing to take the plunge. Not that it would be a make or break thing, but opportunity costs, opportunity costs.
