Snow falling on David

As unable to do Xmas countdown, jazz up blog with a bit of festivity in honor of David's fav holiday ^__^ Hope u like it dreamzstar. Really like putting Santa cap on him, he looked like an elf heehee Too lazy to do proper snowfall but this the easiest & prettiest I could find but have to refresh to see again sry. Below David in his white tee looking hot, rmbr Chih-Yung Power Sch @ Xmas eve on cable 54, screencaps courtesy & much thanks to SGFC.
Also did someone want Blue Moon/Over the rainbow medley, now can watch & listen online here link credit polopolo21. David already in LA & seemed he will not duet with Bibi during CNY concert as he felt not enough time to rehearse properly. Anyway they sang together before, also he did not say he will 'still remember Bibi in ten years'. Wish the media will stop saying that. What he did say after they sang together, was both of them will not forget singing together even after 10 years. Even such a simple, sweet sentiment they can make it so banal *sigh*
Lee Hom too is suffering from sum stupid rumor, totally untrue of cos as all rumors of Lee Hom always proved in the end. Why is there always bad gossip abt Lee Hom whenever he released a new album? Its a good thing he has extremely faithful fans. Here he looked vry cool in his chinese opera inspired sportswear.
Sumone @ davidcn kindly put up link to dl part of Love Can Shanghai concert broadcasted by Shanghai Oriental Television, think its legit. Seemed to be the entire white outfit section with Rain, Shanghaied, Airport in 10.30, Who do you love, Moon over whose heart, Let's fall in love & Runaway. The recording perfect or maybe David's vocals just incredibly perfect.
After watching, felt Love Can can blow Soul Power away cos David was simply, superbly overwhelming. His voice pure magic & this is from watching the recording so imagine what it must be like live. He managed to capture the infectious feel of a western free-spirit concert while blending in chinese elements of operatic show. Also he was extremely captivating, such presence on stage that can hardly take my eyes off him when he is singing. He has that kinda effect, the only other performer who can do that to me is Madonna.
Brilliant arrangement of all the songs, almost faultless. A bit of gospel in Rain, a bit of nightclub jazz in Airport in 10.30, Moon over whose heart seemed just a shade faster to go with the rest of the songs. Who do you love is breathtaking, even better than the cd with David's voice breaking ever so slightly to tug at yr heartstring. Hard to choose but if I have a fav its Runaway. Actually was wondering how he was gonna top the frenetic, spontaneous performance of Runaway in Soul Power. Well he dun top it but gave different, less fenetic feel with the 2 girls doing the voiceovers. Absolutely love the way he made it sound like an english, country-rock song & even tho he is singing in chinese, it just sound so rite, so good, so perfect.
He had a lot of musicans on stage, almost an orchestra, but yet the feel of the concert is still intimate & uncontrived. The file vry big & took me half the night to dl but really worth to watch if u haven't attend any of the Love Can concerts. Really hope he will release live concert cd/dvd soon plse.
