After two years of preparation, The Crane returns with his second concept album Same Stories, Different Narratives.

From ancient mythologies and fables to modern novels and films, humanity has always told tales of love and hate, betrayal and redemption — stories that echo through time. Yet each generation finds new ways to tell them, to feel them. This album is The Crane’s own narrative. Here, he steps into the role of a villain — revealing his inner struggles with resentment, “DISEASE”, “TRUST”, and of course, love.
"VILLAIN" is the theme song of the antagonist — "I died so you could get that loud applause" — perhaps revealing yet another “different narrative” within a relationship. Right and wrong may never be clearly answered, but at this moment, it’s crystal clear that one is standing on the opposite side of the other.
The lead single, “Right Side of My Heart”, features renowned singer waa Wei, blending Classical Pop sounds with the bittersweet emotions of a blooming yet distant affection.

Another highlight of the album, “IGLOOOO”, featuring moon tang, tells the story of a solitary figure living in an igloo, dreaming of tropical warmth and the woman he longs for, in this upbeat alternative R&B groove.

The starting and ending track “Same Story” and “Different Narrative” encapsulates the whole album like the covers of a journal in use. The tracks end but The Crane’s journaling has not. Through the tip of his pen, turns the leaving present to the past, and the future to the present. Synchronizing his thoughts and emotions with the listener through the album, and becoming a fresh part of the forever told story.
