JJ RAWKS!!!

Went to JJ's concert last nite and I must say that I pretty much enjoyed myself! He was good!!! :)) And we were pretty near the stage, well not all that near but not soooo far until he is just like a little ant and then I would have to concentrate more on the projector than on him, so well worth my $110. Havent been to concerts in eons... hmm... went to my 1st one by Jacky Cheung (tis e one he lost his voice then we had a make up of e concert... kewl!) when I was 15 & then the Take That one when I was in JC (& which I almost fainted coz we bought the standing tickets and I almost got crushed n suffocated haha!) then no more till this.
Pre-Concert had this famous dancing instructor from Taiwan (dun ask me wat's his name!!) teaching the audience some actions to be used during 1 of JJ's songs subsequently. It was q farnee but I didnt follow lah coz felt kinda stupid hee hee. Then before JJ came on stage, they showed this video clip like in the year 3006 and there was no music & this little kid happened to find this CD which brought him back to year 2006 and the kida kinda morphed into JJ. Ok... cant say I really understand what it mean but after that JJ came out on stage & the crowd like went wild!! Started off with 2 quick songs which showed his nifty dance steps before slowing down to 翅膀 from his 1st album. But e corny thing was, they literally showed this pair of wings on the screen and I soooo wanted to burst out laughing!!! :P
Didn't really enjoy his fast songs coz for 1, I am not too familiar with them and for another, somehow the music was way way way too loud during the fast songs thereby drowning out his voice. But I totally enjoyed when he sang the slower songs especially 1 of my fave 简简单单which I have as my ringtone *smiles* I recorded the song but somehow the effect not that good leh. Was thnking I shd have brought a recorder to tape up the whole concert man hee hee!!
He had 2 special guests, 金沙 who sad to say, can't sing & who incidentally is the Jean Yip gal wor... never knew that!! & 阿杜 whom JJ calls his 恩人 as he was the one who kinda intro JJ to the entertainment world when JJ first came out. What I didnt expect was the easy camaderie between the 2 of them; they r like pretty different leh but it is heartwarming to see local artistes standing by each other :)
There were also 2 special segments; 1 where he sang songs which he wrote for other pp and 2 where he sang songs by pp who has influenced him in his music whilst growing up. For the 1st session, he sang 4 songs, 2 of which I don't recognise, the other 2 being 当你 & 记得 which is 1 of my fave Ah Mei's songs!!! & he was v touched when the audience sang with him on these 2 songs!!! It was AMAZING!!! As for the 2nd segment, he sang 黑色幽默 by Jay Chou & 唯一 by Lee Hon which I was q surprised coz I thought he would sing songs by more "established" artistes like Jacky Cheung & not the new generation of singers... but I guess it is the R&B kinda music that attracted him lah. But the person that influenced him the most was Michael Jackson & he sang "Heal the World".
The concert ended with his encore rendition of 曹操，my current fave 只对你说 & 江南 fr his 2nd album. He actually broke dwn whilst singing 只对你说 then my friend was asking, why is he crying?? haha :PP
All in all, me thnks JJ is a v talented singer/songwriter. Like most of the songs that he has written save maybe for the fast ones but then again I am a sentimental gal @ heart hee hee. Hope he will continue to write & sing more nice songs for us to enjoy!!! :)
