The Heavenly Sings
I'm so glad got the chance to watch this concert, by none other than the Heavenly King - Jacky Cheung/张学友. He's by far the only person in Sg for the last 10 years to ever have 3 concerts- complete sold-out!
The concert started at about 8.15pm. We were greeted by his opening "爱火花". Superb dancing and even more superb singing. A series of fast songs. He slammed the mic stand again, and screamed into the mic, as reported by the news. He explained that he's using rock songs to ease his stress and worries, and apparently he felt better after screaming every time. He invited the audience to scream tger with him, and we did. It does feel a bit better. 歌星也是人, the news reported that his dad just passed away last year, and he had severed ties with his brother, who owed the macau casinos tonnes of $$. He paid a large sum to help his brother clear off his debts before severing ties off with him.
Then he introduced himself - 46 years old, and being in the entertainment industry for 23 years. Exactly half of his life, he's spent it on singing. And I'm glad he did, coz his songs are really really good..those that touched your souls.
Since young, all the males in his family (father, uncle, grandpa) were not around, as they were seafarers (not surprised, as Hong Kong has an equally good port as Sg). Thus, he was always surrounded by women as a child. And for that, he told the audience "其实我是很了解女人的".
He promised to write a song for his first daughter, and picked up the guitar to compose the song "摇摇", a Cantonese lullaby. As he claimed to understand women very well, he knew that he'd be in deep shit if he composed a song for his daughter and not his wife. So he picked up the guitar again and gave birth to the very very nice Cantonese song "讲你知". He joked that actually he's very generous, if we like the song and find it suitable, just go ahead and use/sing it. He could earn the royalties then.
讲你知
====
看你背面我身体欠自然
看你正面两手失控在颤
看你笑脸我开心数夜数天
与你说话我哑口会无言
与你碰面我体温会乱变
与你贴面一世的经典
若你肯再拥抱紧一点
我愿意用我十年
去换我共你十天 ooh
要讲你知你的意义
每当我的心肝跳一次
没法子难制止
你是血液渗于我每一处
要讲你知我的故事
这一秒即使心再不跳
在记忆潜意识
爱是已在心中永世不变
光阴可以瞬间转数十年
生死起跌也知不会幸免
当中只有爱的感觉未曾变
After 3 years, his second daughter arrived in the world. He has not composed any song for her yet, since she didnt ask anyway. But he felt that the song "在你身边" could aptly summarise how he felt when his daughter was born. Not all love songs are for couples, some can be for people you love, like your family. It really brought a different meaning the next time I listened to this song. You can really feel his joy and anxiety as he welcomed his daughter into this world.
在你身边
======
就要发生的时间
如何有所准备
它就静静的出现
却走进了我的视觉
以为丰富的经验
能让我度过一切
我逞强地唱着唱着
却不住地后退
从来没有什么眷恋
终于现在我才发现
我的心里有个角落
在等着你的出现
眼前早已失去警觉
任你轻易推落海边
曾经在你的怀抱里
失去所有知觉
你的温柔让我逐渐深陷
每天总是期待看你一遍哦
爱的感觉这么强烈
我怎能否决
不管天涯海角
我要在你的身边
爱的感觉这么强烈
我怎能否决
不管天涯海角
我要在你的身边
He kept asking us "明天有没有做工" I was quite surprised that many people ans "NO" as I had to. Then i realised why. Coz it's a Sunday, and most pple had to work on Mon, he should end the concert early so that pple can report to work on time the next day. He joked "原来这里有很多老板".
He went on to sing his many classics/经典...too many that I cannot remember. Those that I listened in sec school and JC. Really brought back memories then.
In 2003, he said that it was a very down year for him, as many of his friends in the HK entertainment industry passed away. He sang the Canto song "给朋友" for them. At that time, the atmosphere was solemn and the audience gave the deceased due respect by not screaming.
There was a component where he sang songs from other singers, such as "明天我要嫁给你了", "天黑黑" and "爱如潮水". Before he sang, he added a caveat that he was usually very nervous at this segment, coz remembering lyrics at his age is already a chore, and that he "怕唱的不好". In my opinion, I think he sang better than 周华建, 孙 YanZi, and 张信哲. He's simply the best!!
Afterwhich, he started to stage a 舞台剧" with songs from "雪狼湖" and "如果爱". The graphics are really nice - there was a purple misty mountain with lightning bolts appearing here and there, and a full moon. I really like the song "如果爱". This brought the concert to an end, officially. The time was 10.35pm.
如果爱
====
每个人都想明白
谁是自己生命不该错过的真爱
特别在午夜醒来更是会感慨
心动埋怨还有不能释怀
都是因为你触碰了爱
如果这就是爱
再转身就该勇敢留下来
就算受伤就算流泪
都是生命里温柔灌溉
哦爱在回忆里总是那么明白
困惑的心流过的泪
还有数不清黑夜等待
如果这就是爱
如果你当时明白
后来的生命里是快乐还是悲哀
特别在夜深人静时想起未来
是否能平静不会想现在
只是因为你拥有了爱
如果这就是爱
再转身就该勇敢留下来
就算受伤
就算流泪
都是生命里温柔灌溉
哦爱在回忆里总是那么明白
困惑的心
流过的泪
还有数不清黑夜等待
如果这就是爱
如果这就是爱
The audience encored, and he appeared again. Fast songs again, and people rushed from their seats to the front - instanteously it became a huge disco. He was encouraging pple to stand up and dance too! So high..
Then he toned down and started singing "我真的受伤了"..really really nice...He also sang a song for his fans "她来听我的演唱会". The lyrics are so good...17, 25, 33, over 40. Would I still be able to catch his concert at 33 and 40?? Time flies..things change..
她来听我的演唱会
===========
她来听我的演唱会
在十七岁的初恋第一次约会
男孩为了她彻夜排队
半年的积畜买了门票一对
我唱得她心醉我唱得她心碎
三年的感情一封信就要收回
她记得月台汽笛声声在催
播我的歌陪着人们流泪
嘿陪人们流泪
她来听我的演唱会
在二十五岁恋爱是风光明媚
男朋友背着她送人玫瑰
她不听电话夜夜听歌不睡
我唱得她心醉
我唱得她心碎
成年人分手后都像无所谓
和朋友一起买醉卡拉ok
唱我的歌陪着画面流泪
嘿陪着流眼泪.
我唱得她心醉
我唱得她心碎
在三十三岁真爱那么珍贵
年轻的女孩求她让一让位
让男人决定跟谁远走高飞
嘿谁在远走高飞
我唱得她心醉
我唱得她心碎
她努力不让自己看来很累
岁月在听我
们唱无怨无悔
在掌声里唱到自己流泪
嘿唱到自己流泪
她来听我的演唱会
在四十岁后听歌的女人很美
小孩在问她为什么流泪
身边的男人早已渐渐入睡
她静静听着我们的演唱会
He started singing his classics again - he thinks that "吻别" is his classic Mandrain song, while "每天爱你多一天" will be his canto classic.
He said he has been pondering on the meaning of life for the past 3 three years, and he concluded that " 人生就是这样,只要能熬过去不开心的事, 开心的事就会要到了。 总有开心和不开心的事。“
He also said "只要用心唱, 唱什么都会好听" I truly believe in this, as he has displayed it fully. He ended with 祝福 as the finale at 11.45pm.
祝福

不要问不要说一切尽在不言中
这一刻偎著烛光让我们静静的渡过
莫挥手莫回头当我唱起这首歌
怕只怕泪水轻轻的滑落
愿心中永远留著我的笑容
伴你走过每一个舂夏秋冬
几许愁几许忧人生难免苦与痛
失去过才能真正懂得去珍惜和拥有
情难舍人难留今朝一别各西东
冷和热点点滴滴在心头
愿心中永远留著我的笑容
伴你走过每一个春夏秋冬
伤离别离别虽然在眼前
说再见再见不会太遥远
若有缘有缘就能期待明天
你和我重逢在灿烂的季节
伤离别离别虽然在眼前
说再见再见不会太遥远
若有缘有缘就能期待明天
你和我重逢在灿烂的季节
伤离别离别虽然在眼前
说再见再见不会太遥远
伤离别离别虽然在眼前
说再见再见不会太遥远
若有缘有缘就能期待明天
你和我重逢在灿烂的季节
不要问不要说
一切尽在不言中
这一刻偎著烛光让我们静静的渡过
莫挥手莫回头当我唱起这首歌
愿心中留著笑容
伴你渡过每个春夏秋冬
4 hours of song, dance and acting. 4 hours of bringing the audience's emotions to the extreme peaks and valleys. He sang the song continously, with his trademark apple and bottle of mineral water appearing after the encore. His physical stamina has surpassed most of us here (who will defintely get a sore-throat after singing k continously for 4 hours, minus the dancing and acting!) Every one of his piece are emotional, touching and simply marvellous. Truly, he deserves the title "The Heavenly King"
