Jay Chou "Broken Strings"

Sometimes in life you just want to sit down, chill out and play some music to soothe yourself. For me, there's no one better than Jay Chou when it comes to that, and one of my favourite slow jam songs has to be Broken Strings. Released on 11th November 2003, this old track brings back some of the originality of Jay's composing that got him famous. With his signature unclear pronunciation of words, the track belongs to no other singer other than himself. It's this originality that makes me greatly admire him and continue to support his new ventures.
The music video is simple in story and the filmography, but I think that greatly accentuates the attitude of people back in the early noughties. It was a carefree lifestyle, very un-materialistic and makes me wish I could have grown up in that era.
