Background

Jinny, in the interview of Billboard Radio China, tells that music likes a dairy which can records down and expresses feelings. She said, inspiration usually come when she was taking shower and that's how it works for "Letting You Go". For the lyrics, she was inspired by an online upload and is also relevant to her own experiences. The song delivers the message of letting go.

"Falling into You" is a song collaborated with Dominic Chu, a friend she known 6 years ago. The song tells how Jinny see love: giving all of herself to the one she loved, and cannot take it back even the relationship is not stable.
