5/28 - Discover Zhang Hui Mei

Discovery Taiwan will be featuring Zhang Hui Mei, affectionately known as A-Mei on Sun 5/28 @ 9m & apparently David is 1 of the ppl interviewed. More info here click on pix to launch brief intro but no David. Should be a great program, hope it will taped by A-Mei fans cos love to watch it. She really should be regarded as Taiwan's treasure. Below is her performance @ GHA last yr, the highlight of that lacklustre show. Incredible how versatile she is. She can sing anything & make it sound good. Such a powerful voice yet she controls it so well. This vid really showcase her talents from singing ballads to fast songs back to ballads then a grand finale without missing a beat. No dancers, no outrageous outfit, she just grabbed yr attention from start to finish with her voice. Pure enjoyment just listening to her.

It both amazed me and annoys me how someone like Jolin can be the top artist when we have AMEI.

Well A-Mei was pretty famous before Jolin until she got banned by China. She nvr did regain the same level of fame even after the ban was lifted. David once said that she needs to find her music direction. Actually I feel she should go back to her aboriginal root & start from there. I find her latest album vry refreshing & enjoy it a lot but it wasn't vry special. Hope she can find her direction & come up with some surprises for her next album. I will always support her.
