On September 10, 1999, EMI Records was released
The overall style of the album continues the route of not losing, but the opening "Open to the Dragon" is one of the breakthroughs of Faye Wong, in which she uses the sound breaking technique for the first time, reflecting a desperate mentality of fear of love. The middle tone processing of the song completely subverts the habit of appreciating Faye Wong's perfect voice line, and Faye Wong's broken sound interpretation is deliberately reasonable.
The album has a wonderful title, and Lin Xi, who does not lack good words, dedicates a lot of good words and good sentences, and the song of the same name "Only Love Strangers" written by him provides a postmodern but a little romantic scenery by using a large span of words and a very imaginative combination. Faye Wong's version almost completely continues Zhang Yadong's version, in addition to tonality, both timbre and structure, are similar to the original. The work uses the Posarovar style as a skeleton, and the rhythm of the electron, coupled with the unique trumpet tone of Cool Jazz, and other details, show that Zhang Yadong has both a technical control side and a talented talent in arranging. In terms of singing, although Faye Wong is also the same as Zhang Yadong, there is a kind of casual treatment, but there is a sense of floating that is light, and she can highlight the "strange" perspective through the indifferent and independent look in that temperament.
As the title of the album, "The Moon At That Time" carries a fresh school wind, pure as a silverware. Lin Xi's ingenious brushstrokes were narrated under Wang Fei's restrained and restrained interpretation, just like unfolding a line-bound book of time, the paper was as light as snow, and the ink was like an orchid. Looking at Faye Wong's works over the years, there are no more such examples. Guo Liang's "Hypnosis" is a British dance song, which does not lose the beauty of the melody under the rhythm of the hearty.
"One Hundred Years of Solitude" created by Jiang Zhiren, a fixed team, has a strong Middle Eastern color in the arrangement, and the rhythm echoes the opening of the record". "Butterfly" created by Chen Weiwen is a work that is more and more soothing in melody, and for a while people almost ignore the R&B rhythm hidden under the melody. Yuan Weiren's "Passing Eyes and Clouds" is a neoclassical Gaoge work. Zhang Yadong's "After a Sound" is unexpected, and the feeling of estrangement and temptation is so real and illusory under the creation of Yadong + Faye Wong, which makes people shoot the case and praise it. At the end of "Wonderful", the performance is remarkable, and the heavy rhythm once again emphasizes the rock and roll color of the album.
