David & Paco

Marry me today has been topping the charts in China for a while now. Dun understand why this song is so popular considering a lot of ppl sneered at it for all sorta reason, mainly the 'in the house' rap. If the rap is removed, this song will lose a lot of the fun element which is probably what makes it so popular. Still nice that the first duet in David's album is so successful.
Vry interesting article where Paco talked abt co-operating with David (link credit DTFC). It seemed Paco has admired David before he came to HK to stage his first concert. Paco said that David "changed the music market in Taiwan & inspired others to develop their own style. David also made it difficult for HK singers to become successful in TW unless they are very good." High praise from this music veteran. Paco also said that when he wanted to stage David's first series of concerts in HK, the late Anita Mui advised against him as she felt that Paco did not handled the production of Andy Hui's concerts very well.
When Paco watched Soul Power concert, he was extremely impressed and more determined to stage David's next concerts in HK. I guess he must have convinced David as Love Can concerts were indeed under Paco's production. Paco also said that he would try & help David realised his director's dream. Paco is vry influential in HK & with Peter Chan, David should be able to get extremely good support for his first movie ^__^
