Lara Jennifer McAllen is a chart vocalist, singer/songwriter, and vocal producer.
Biography
Lara McAllen is the singer for the pop/dance music project Angel City. McAllen began dancing at age 5, and briefly pursued a modelling career before becoming a backing dancer for the pop singer Shakira at age 19. She then began her career as a dance music vocalist with Angel City when she signed her first recording contract with Ministry of Sound at age 20. Before Angel City, Lara found dancefloor success with Stuart's 2001 trance release "Free (Let It Be)", released through Incentive, an offshoot of Ministry of Sound.
While originally credited as a guest vocalist in Angel City, McAllen later joined the group as lead singer and performed all the tracks on the debut album "Love Me Right". McAllen had UK Top 10 records with Angel City before pursuing further work both in vocal production and songwriting. As a partner of the production company responsible for the Angel City records, McAllen worked alongside producers such as Jason Nevins, Rob Davis (Kylie Minogue) and Armin Van Buuren. She has also presented for various Sky Channels on programmes like FYC as well as featuring on TV shows such as Never Mind the Buzzcocks, CD:UK, Des and Mel and performing her debut single Love Me Right on Top of the Pops.
A Girl like Me is a 2005 documentary by Kiri Davis. The seven-minute documentary examines such things as the importance of color, hair and facial features for young African American women. It won the Diversity Award at the 6th Annual Media That Matters film festival in New York City, and has received coverage on various American media sources, such as CNN, ABC, NPR. The documentary has been shown on HBO. The documentary was made as part of Reel Works Teen Filmmaking.
Synopsis
The video begins with interviews with Kiri Davis and her peers about how black features did not conform to society's standards of beauty. The next section was a repeat of an experiment conducted by Kenneth Clark in the 1940s where African-American children were asked to choose between black or white dolls. In the original experiment(s) the majority of the children choose the white dolls. When Davis repeated the experiment 15 out of 21 children also choose the white dolls over the black, giving similar reasons as the original subjects, associating white with being pretty or good and black with ugly or bad. The dolls used in the documentary were identical except for skin colour.
A Girl Like Me is the debut solo album by English recording artist Emma Bunton, released in the United Kingdom on 16 April 2001 by Virgin Records. The album debuted and peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart, with 21,500 copies sold in its first week. Although initial success was promising, A Girl Like Me fell down the chart quickly. However, singles "What I Am", "What Took You So Long?", "Take My Breath Away" and "We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight" helped the album stay on the UK Albums Chart for several weeks. On 7 September 2001, A Girl Like Me was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry for shipments in excess of 100,000 copies.
Critical reception
A Girl Like Me received mixed to positive reviews from music critics. Stewart Mason of AllMusic felt that Emma's singing voice lacked depth but that it worked well with the well-crafted and addicting pop songs, concluding that "A Girl Like Me isn't an album for the ages, but it's better than 'not bad.'" Timothy Park of NME said that there were great tracks and Emma performs them adequately but felt the album lacked ambition or honesty, concluding that "'A Girl Like Me', like Emma, is very sweet but, like Emma also, it has no balls." Erik Missio of CHARTattack said he saw promise in the album but felt disappointed by its attempts to resemble the Spice Girls' sound. Stephen Robinson of Hot Press criticized the tracks for being overly sweet and borrowing from other genres but being unoriginal with them, calling it "another album to chuck aboard the pop blandwagon."

A Girl Like Me:The Gwen Araujo Story
I set this to "In The Arms of An Angel" by Sarah McLaughlin, because it seemed to fit best.
I love the movie, and I always have and I'm a huge advocate for transgender rights so it only seemed fitting that I should make this. I hope you like it :)
It took forever but it was worth it :P
Even if you've never seen the movie, watch it
Considering I don't have real video of Gwen Araujo, I thought the movie which I love was beautifully done and JD Pardo did a great job.. It does justice :)
RIP Gwen Araujo.

[Eng] 花信 (Flower Letter) - 侯明昊 | A girl like me OST 我就是这般女子 片尾曲 MV
Drama ending song sung by Neo Hou, the actor playing the male lead! Warning, the lyrics are sung really fast!!
To be honest when I first heard this song, it was rather upbeat, didn't sound very emotional or poetic like those songs with all that abstract language so I thought it would be easier translating. Well, I was wrong, the language in this song was very flowery...
The song's name 花信 (Flower letter) means a letter bringing the message that flowers have started to bloom. The whole song has a very positive and hopeful vibe so the line 'If there's a letter, it will surely be like a flower' means that if there's a letter, it would surely be one that brings good news (the blooming of flowers, the coming of spring).

人间清澈洗铅华
Cleansing the human realm off everything superficial
[铅华 is the face power or makeup pigments used by ancient women. These are superficial things that can be used to cover up/ hide the true self, so to be cleansed off it means the cleansing of everything external and fake]
So basically the second and third verses of this song roughly mean:
He's feeling restless and anxious. But then it suddenly rains, washing off all the superficial, fake and insignificant things of the human realm, bringing him good news.
With her by his side, he can continue to be without worries, living life like a dream where he can be carefree and do whatever he wants. As he spends more time with her, he learns to discard more and more insignificant things and his only request is for it to remain like this, where he can be together with her, without worries, freely roaming the world.
This drama may not be the best but it's a good time filler without too much drama. Beginning episodes are funny and even if there's some angst, it gets solved within a few episodes so I'd say it's rather light-hearted, especially compared to what I last watched (The Wolf).
The drama is based on a novel that is being translated into English. I've read a number of the author's works but not this novel so I'm not very bothered by the differences between the drama and novel, but I've seen some comments online saying that they're quite different.
