For JJ Lin's new album , to truly understand what hes trying to say through the album I suggest that you really watch the music videos as well and read as much as you can on the context of songs. For example , his song <Practice Love> if you only read the lyrics you would think it was just a nice love song , but he actually wrote the song for a friend who liked him as more than a friend , who died in the 1997 Silkair plane crash. His picture was found among her belongings afterwards. It's a bit sad that you can't really tell from the song and as an album telling <untold stories> I really don't think I should have to go searching for information and relying on the music videos to tell the stories , but if youre a JJ Lin fan , the music videos will definitely be helpful. Theres so many of them released for this album ,so have fun watching! Although I don't totally agree with the way that JJ Lin is so dependent on the music videos for his songs , but after watching them , I truly do feel a deeper understanding for the albu PS Check out his youtube page for his mini movies for the songs as well! https://www.youtube.com/user/jjlin
