I was listening to the chinese radio today, and there was a song that was a complete ripoff of Angela's Tegami, background music and how its sung, everything... To me, it sounded as if they just took the MP3, edited out Angela's voice and sung over it wtf...

hm :/ the new single sounds too generic. BUT I love the electro effects she's been adding to her songs lately. I think she should experiment with that more. Coz most of her songs are similar to each other a lot
