我有話說／你來我往

小編推介

小編推介又跟大家如約相見啦！本期小編想向大家推薦龐克以及舞曲曲風的兩張專輯，希望平時愛聽這兩種類型音樂的朋友能夠喜歡哦！

歌手：Panic at the Disco 專輯名：Pretty. Odd. 音樂風格：PUNK-POP

Review: Panic at the Disco opens their second album with an apology: “Oh how it’s been so long/ We’re so sorry we’ve been gone/ We were busy writing songs for you，” frontman Brendon Urie sings on the intro “We’re So Starving.” Clearly， this Las Vegas quartet realizes how crucial their follow-up to 2005’s platinum A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out is. Displaying a nice sense of whimsy， they’ve grown beyond emo， whether it be the Beatle-esque pop of “She Had the World，” the Beach Boys sunniness of “When the Day Met the Night.”

歌手：Kylie Minogue 專輯名：X 音樂風格：DANCE-POP

Review: If you thought that Kylie Minogue might pick up an acoustic guitar and share her most intimate feelings on her first album since beating breast cancer， think again. X， her 10th studio disc， finds Minogue doing the same kind of mindless， fizzy dance-pop that fans have come to expect. While failing to bring the type of sonic reinvention to the genre that Madonna has， Minogue still delivers on guilty pleasures like the shimmery single “All I See，” and the pulsating ， synth-driven “The One”.

“粉絲”心聲

Dear CR editors:

I’m pretty glad to write to you. To begin with， I’d like to thank you all for bringing me such a fantastic English magazine.

Frankly speaking， I gradually fall in love with this magic magazine after having read several issues. Not only are the articles considerably attractive， but also the pictures and the covers are extremely fabulous!

By the way， buying CR was just a coincidence. In fact， I used to be a loyal fan of CE Teens. When I looked for Teens in the bookshop， the shop owner showed me a copy of CR. Given that I was not a teenager any more， I bought CR instead. Compared to Teens and other English magazines I have read， CR gave me a fresh and different perspective. Great articles， new words and the elegant appearance， pretty impressed me. Though it is a little bit hard for me to read the whole magazine without a dictionary， I still fix all my attention on it.

To tell you the truth， I like CR so much that I almost become crazy about it. What’s more， it’s CR that keeps my passion for English firing. Words always fail me when I want to express my gratitude to you.

All in all， I believe CR’s outlook will be brighter!
