A few months ago, we met Noelle Cassandra, Asia’s only harpist, singer, and songwriter (not to mention being a star badminton player!). The Candy team was mesmerized by her lovely rendition of Taylor Swift’s Love Story, which she sang while playing the harp. That’s why I was so excited when I found out she recently launched her new album!

Here are my favorite tracks:

1. Defying Gravity – If you’re a Glee fan like me, you’d be happy to hear this song on Noelle’s album! While Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel had their own great versions of the song, Noelle’s rendition coupled with the trills of the harp is just as awesome!

2. Vanilla Twilight – I love Owl City! Noelle ‘s smooth, mellow voice is just perfect for this song and gives it a unique twist.

3. After the Rain – Penned by Noelle Cassandra herself, this slow but uplifting ditty can surely take you out of a rut. “Get up and fight the fight / Take it day by day / Cuz’ there’s always sunshine after the rain.”

4. A Little Too Not Over You – Originally sung by David Archuleta, this song is for all girls who’ve been brokenhearted before—me included. Now if only she could have a duet with Lil’ Archie, then the song would be even more perfect!

5. Push the Button – Yes, it’s the song by The Pussycat Dolls! Noelle maintains the song’s sexy, flirty vibe in a slightly slower tempo with her unique vocals—and that harp, of course!

Be sure to grab a copy of Noelle Cassandra’s album—available at Odyssey, Astro, SM record bars and other leading record outlets. For more information and upcoming events, log on to www.noellecassandra.com.
