We're almost halfway there before the semifinal matches! In this poll pick your favorite rock ballad song.

Honestly I moved Final Battle between 3-4 categories before deciding to just stick it here. :oops:

caught between Love's Cliff and Always head North...I chose love's cliff but now that i think about it, i think i actually might like Always Head North better :oops:
Love's Cliff has a great chorus, Jay's voice just sails when he sings it
but Always Head North might have a better tune overall...err...

aaahhh, this was probably the hardest poll to vote for so far for me >.< i was so stuck between silence and stranded. they're both favorites of mine.. but i ended up choosing silence. although stranded is my favorite song, silence got my vote anyway. it's a classic. lyrics are beautiful. it's the epitome of a ballad.

I suppose Silence would be the cliche option, but I prefer Yi Lu Xiang Bei.

yes, I feel Jay's pain everytime I listen to this. who can forget the crying scene? :rolleyes:

I chose Silence because that one is THE ultimate Jay Chou ballad.

'Always head North' for me, thats such an awesome song, unbeatable
others that would come runner-up would be....all of them hahaha, they're all very good, jay is just unbeatable lol
but really they are all very nice but yi lu xiang bei is just so up there for me

02-07-2007, 04:10 PM
omg i love all his ballads <333 but i chose my very very fave.. an jing!! woohoo!!!

jay_fantasy8
02-07-2007, 04:19 PM
wheeee.

i had a hard time deciding whether i should choose an jing or yi lu xiang bei but in the end i went for the initial d song cause the opening guitar strumming is just so super duper nice . gives me goosebumps whenever i hear the strong opening . plus i put it on repeat for days before. x)

i kinda like silence but grew sick of it for a period of time years ago. a jay classic .

AHHHH.

I thought that the Battle 4 was hard to choose, but battle 5 was HARDER!!

I was pondering between All the Way north and Excuse - my all time favorites and songs that I never skip on my Ipod.

I letted my iTunes decide for me - by play count :cry:

I voted 'An Jing [Silence]' because that was my very first Jay song. I cried when I heard it, then decided to check out more of Jay's music. That song is the reason for my Jay fandom today. And ever since then, it's been one of my faves. :D

I chose 'An Jing'

Similar to my condition, how sad...

Esp.

我會學著放棄你
wo hui xue zhe fang qi ni
I will learn to let you go

是因為我太愛你
shi yin wei wo tai ai ni
its because I love you too much

4 of my favourite Jay songs are up there, it was SO hard to choose! Voted for Ge Qian coz it's one of my favourite songs to sing, and I was very impressed with the vocals and MV. :)

However, I think An Jing definitely deserves to win this category, it's so raw and emotional.

It was between yi lu xiang bei, split and silence for me. Last battle to a lesser extent as well. Split is just so melancholic - it's brillant in a quieter sort of sense. But I pick yi lu xiang bei in the end bcos when i think abt soft rock ballads, it has to be the one.

It was pretty hard....but I choosed Stranded...it's a really nice song and always put me in the right mood...Excuse is really good too but I like this one better!! :happy:

sushii
02-09-2007, 04:48 AM
hmmm..i'm stuck between silence and excuse..those are both very good songs.
i think i'll choose silence because it was one of the first songs i've ever heard from jay.

This was easier for me than the other one. It's just a fight between Ge Qian and An Jing. At first I didn't like Silence because I found it too mellow and boring. But its soporific melody, haunting piano beats and taunting lyrics got into me and took over Stranded's spot in my heart.

02-09-2007, 09:32 AM
omg, this is a difficult one...

but i had to choose 'always head north' cos this is the full cd i listened to and got hooked on...

anything that has silence competing will get my vote - my ultimate jay song - ballad/ soft rock .

OMG. this poll is sooo hard to choose. i love practically all of the songs! Silence was the song that got me looking for Jay's songs in the very beginning, but it sorta got boring after too many listenings. Split is really nice but it's a wee bit too slow. i love the piano in Love's Cliff, the use of gun sounds is cool in The Last Battle and Excuse is nice too. But it was the hardest to choose between Stranded and The Road North. Stranded was once my favourite song after Jay released the Common Jasmin Orange album, as it's so touching. but i must say that i got really hooked to The Road North. i don't know why, but seriously, that song is my favourite song ever, even until now. so yeah, The Road North's my choice!

i chose all the way north. it will always hold a special place in my heart cause i found myself listening to it whenever i felt sad and it somehow made me feel more understand or a little bit better since it sounds like its going through the sadness with me yanno? kinda corny eh?

"an jing" has to be the winner here. there's nothing more lovely, and sad, than the effort one puts through for sumone even after they broke up with them. all because they care for them THAT much. it's so sad. :(

I love The Road North
The song is something that I can listen to over and over again without getting bored!

Got stuck between Silence and Yi lu xiang bei. Love both songs a lot, but in the end chose yi lu xiang bei. I love the rhythm and lyrics! A very hard poll. :D

My fave jay song is 'Silence' so I picked it..although I was [just for a little while] considering Always head north' and 'stranded'. I love them all but yeah, 'silence' it was =)

i like "Yi Lu Ziang Bei" the best..
i just love that song.. it's so depressing. but i love it anyway. whenever i listen to it, i feel like crying. (Don't worry, I'm Not EMO)

i also like EXCUSE. it's also a sad song..

02-11-2007, 08:12 AM
I won't despute the fact that An Jing should win this.. but my personal favourite would have to be Stranded.. so I voted for that.. due to the fact that my attention span is alot less than 5minutes and 34 seconds... :sweat:

If i had to vote again between Yi Lu Xiang Bei and An Jing, i'd definitely go for An Jing :D because An Jing was the first chinese song i learnt.. sorta sentimental value there :happy:

Oh My God...my "An Jing"...is here..haha..i have to choose it come what may

Ooh tough choice for me between An Jing and Ai Qing Xuan Ai, even though I wasn't crazyinlove with it at first An Jing is classic but I love Ai Qing Xuan Ai, especially the chorus, Jay sounds amazing.

eh I figure enough people will vote for An Jing, so I voted for Ai Qing Xuan Ai
