Album Review[edit]

Agnes Chan launches her New Album "Forget Yourself" Review by Veronica Marie

Catch A Streamline Sample Here http://www.sheunlimited.com/forums/articles.php?action=viewarticle&artid=421

Her first English Album released in the USA. Agnes Chan is above and beyond the hype (i.e., Asian pop superstar wants to make it big in America). She stands out above the rest and what I admire about her the most is the fact that she doesn’t sell to sexual stereotypes of Asian women; just to sell albums to a Western audience.

"Inundated by billboards that let us know How we must have it all and never be denied But you know you can have it all and still not be satisfied Then one day I heard this voice like a mission bell from far away Then I felt it deep inside and this is what I heard it say Forget yourself..." - Agnes Chan, "Forget Yourself"

The humanitarian effort behind the album donates partial proceeds to UNICEF; and also includes special guest appearances’ from Jackie Chan. This album unlike the others has a more ethnic urban feel. Tracks 3 and 6 are our favorites. Track 3 has some jazz, rock with a little touch of Bjork with some hip hop fusion.

Her album is more innovative, and inspiring than other burnt out pop stars. Fans should not hesitate to pick up the CD. I would bet tracks 3 and 6 would be a great sound track at a chic, hip club that you might typically catch a glimpse of Paris Hilton hanging out.

Status of Manager[edit]

The article describes her husband Tsutomu Kaneko as her "former manager", but today's Hongkong Standard article about her breast cancer quotes him as her manager - so is he former or current? Rodparkes 04:54, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Japan Committee for UNICEF[edit]

Japan Committee for UNICEF is a Japanese corporation unaffiliated with the United Nation Children's Fund (UNICEF). It's a good idea to note that somewhere to make it less misleading.--24.5.184.255 (talk) 12:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Her religion[edit]

She is listed as a Catholic in Japanese wikipedia while listed as Sokagakkai Buddhist in here. I don't this the two is compatible. Vapour (talk) 14:45, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Activist Against Art & Freedom of Speech[edit]

Why her career as an activist against freedom of speech and art is not included in this page? I think is very important in having a complete biography about her —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.144.86.244 (talk) 02:51, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. 76.224.126.86 (talk) 21:49, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agree as well. Coolgamer (talk) 21:34, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
