Happy is fine, but there's plenty of artists with happy music. I like epic mountain stuff with a bunch of random wordless singing, and sadly there's not too many artists with that kind of music.

my life lacks in strength. It's too light. It's a leaf the wind plays with, while VoE was the wind playing with those leaves. Epic is epic, mainstream is just mainstream. (Nobody knows but me is kind of interesting song, though.)

IMHO, Voice of EARTH wasn't all that epic either. What it did have that my life didn't was alan's self identity as an artist. Something that separates her from others. Though I do appreciate her experimenting in my life. Artists need to evolve. It's just disappointing she had to try mainstream tunes while going down that route. The point is, wouldn't it boring if she made another VoE 2.0? I wouldn't want that. (Then again, I wouldn't mind her singing epic ballads all the time. Haha.)
