Vista in the house

Finally watched David in WOW concert & enjoyed it so much, watch it again. This man is truly TOPS in live singing. The control & timbre of his voice together with his heartfelt expressions just give me goosebumps. Not many singers can WOW the audience just with his vocals & beautifully written songs. No dancers, no band mbrs, yet David commands the stage effortlessly. This concert reminds me of Soul Power probably cos of the simplicity of the stage & his attire. Love Can was great more cos of his interaction with the band, but as an ardent fan, I only need David & the more of him the better *__* Even if he were to sing all by himself for 5 hrs I will not be bored.
Songlist: Can't get you outta my mind, Who do you love, Regular Friends, Smalltown Girl, Susan Said, Rain, I Love You & Marry me today. My fav is Regular Friends where he freestyled while strumming his guitar, just gorgeous. Who do you love was quite fabulous too, I have forgotten how much I adore this song live esp when his voice was just a bit hoarse & he emoted so gracefully. Once again one marvelled at the CD quality of his voice, or rather the fact that he did little to enhance his vocal recording digitally.
In between Taozi the MC appeared to ask David questions & engaged in light banter. Papa Tao was shown when David talked abt being naughty & wowing his parents ^__^ He invited 2 girls to come onstage when he sang Susan Said. One of them gave him a bear hug & then boasted abt it which was rather sweet. Taozi also invited a female staff of Windows Vista to come onstage. I think she was responsible for organising the launch. She said that when she was looking for suitable singers for the concert, David came to mind cos when schooling in Canada, she kept listening to his albums during a breakup. David sang a few lines of Close To You for her. Altho she was quite calm & controlled onstage, she got quite emotional when she got off the stage & had to be comforted by her friends. Actually I am still not sure whether she is a devoted fan or just overwhelmed by the occasion.
Then to show off features of Window Vista they showed all the various DT fansites on the big computer screen as well as pixs of David with his international fans. It was vry touching & so like David to choose something that will please his fans rather than family pixs or something like that. When Taozi cried out that his fans were mostly female, David quickly said there are male fans too ^__^ I always adore this side of him who realistically refused to play up his idol status. He knows vry well that the majority of his fans love him for his talents, his voice, his personality & most of all, his music. While singing I Love You, David went offstage & was really good abt shaking hands from one side to the other. He seemed all rite when singing Marry Me Today with Jolin & the little kiddies so maybe just my imagination that he looked uneasy. He sang 'Vista in the house' only once altho the media claimed that he changed his lyrics blatantly for the promotion >"< But it was just so good to see him on the stage again & looking so mesmerising *__*
