Writing and production

[edit]

"Play" describes a witty conception how modern people enjoy the absurd and realistic life and how pop culture influences on society.[23] It is full a rap song containing trap beats and a dubstep breakdown.[24] With its gentle rhythm and guitar-based melody, "The Third Person and I" depicts how modern people adopt the escapist attitude when facing the dilemma of life or love.[25] "Medusa" contains pop sounds and trap influence, and it was the track on the album that took the longest time to produce.[26] "We're All Different, Yet the Same" is a soulful R&B song inspired by a true story and speaks strongly for same-sex marriage.[27] Albert Leung said: "Love is not just an abstract belief. It is a right that requires no forgiveness or consideration. None of those who oppose same-sex marriage ever imagined that some people would love their spouses longer than they could legally, they have no right to save their loved ones' lives in the name of their family."[28] "Gentlewomen" was inspired by Simone de Beauvoir's book The Second Sex, which talks about the existentialism and feminism.[29] It merged the genres of noise rock and alternative dance, and it combined with distorted guitar riffs as it progresses.[30]

"Lip Reading" was inspired by Marilyn Monroe, it is a sultry ballad with trip hop influence and pounding percussion that adds to a sort of dramatic and sensual atmosphere.[31] "I'm Not Yours", a duet with Namie Amuro, merged the genres of EDM and dubstep.[32] "I Love, I Embrace" is a soft rock song that advocates a fearless attitude and courage of accepting yourself.[33] "Phony Queen" depicts in an ironic way that modern people's exaggerated dependence on smart phones.[34] Wyman Wong said: "What closest to modern people are not necessarily lovers but smart phones. They rely on smart phones to ask way, do job, and pick restaurant."[35] It is an upbeat dance-pop song with house influence.[24] "Miss Trouble" is a rap song with a trap influenced verses and a slightly operatic chorus.[36]
