Overview
editThis is a collection of unreleased songs from A-Mei's time at Forward Music.[4] Reasons for not releasing these songs include: a song with a distinctly different style from the album, difficulty in choosing a song with the same style, or even the post-production period couldn't catch up with the release date.[5][6][7] Forward Music had repeatedly emphasized that producing the Journey album for A-Mei was like making a graduation album, and watching A-Mei become a super diva from a novice in the singing world.[8]
