Musical Aspect
Like the other aspects, "Sandy" produced a very different sound to the previous albums. Sandy sung in obvious improved vocals. 3 songs were Euro/American covers and 3 songs were Japanese covers, with the rest written locally. From this point, it can be seen Euro/American songs were covered to introduce a western feel in this album, but balanced with Japanese cover songs to maintain commercial acceptance. Musicians were similar to previous albums, but they suited Sandy's style and created an American pop sound instead of J-pop. Lead single "Passion"'s lyrics were written by Richard Lam. Instead of coping with the record company and writing a concept similar to "Heartbreak Alley" from her last album, which was about the strong emotions from breaking up, he ran the risk of writing an extremely detailed romantic theme where a couple had just met their partner. This adult contemporary style was very different from most of the other songs. In addition, track 10 nightwing's lyrics were co-wrote by Sandy and May Leung, another DJ and friend of Sandy.

Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or aspect:
“Each child has his own individual expressions to offer to the world. That expression can take many forms, from artistic interests, a way of thinking, athletic activities, a particular style of dressing, musical talents, different hobbies, etc. Our job is to join our children in discovering who they are.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
“[Convey to your child] that you understand how hard it can be to lose a friend, that under the circumstances feeling sad, angry, hurt or rejected is perfectly normal, that the friendship had some good things and some bad things to it and that neither aspect should be overlooked. . . . Children should be helped to realize that in time they’ll find other friends—but they mustn’t expect a new friend to “replace” a former one.”
—Myron Brenton (20th century)
