Label: 滾石唱片 Rock Records (HK)
This is Beyond's fifteenth album and also their last studio album as original three piece band. The album has no Mandarin title but just English title "Goodtime", just like in "Paradise" album. The album slightly return to guitar orientated sound. As in their previous two albums (Surprise and Until You Are Here), the album represented Beyond hyper modern era.
"Good Time" is nice alternative rock song with lots of guitar explorations. The English chorus lyric is quite memorable. "失蹤 Missing" is also a strong song with nice guitar chopped rhythm. "錯有錯著 By Chance" is also not bad, the bluesy guitar lead in the intro is welcome by old time listener, indeed the song is quite old-times in style. "洗衣粉 Washing Power" is harder song, again very close to their Paradise-era. The album close with "hidden" track, "Evolution". It started after few seconds of silence.
Goodtime is actually quite strong album with all three members begin to employed their rock roots. Unfortunately this is also their farewell album. The band still released Live album after this.
