Bibi’s back with Time, a full 10-track album that includes hit singles Sing Half a Song and Your Love — which was dedicated to her fans.

At first listen, there isn’t anything remarkable about Time as an album — a pity in itself because WOW was just that. But Time has its merits. Bibi sings a bit in English and Cantonese — it shows her influence of western music and the range of her vocals in many of her ballads. The songs are a lot more guitar-driven than anything I can remember in her discography, which would lend itself to awesome acoustic performances in small venues.

Best track? Season

Rating: ★★★½☆

    Maybe you should re-write this review. The word count on the PDF version really hurt it. At least you mention “Season” is the best track… because it is.
