More David @ Hunan


Much thanks to davidcn for Tom.com link to watch David's Hunan NY performance. Need to click play & wait a few mins for connection, rightclick & zoom to full screen if screen is too small. The front part is Bibi & advised to drag abt 1/3 of the way unless u r her fan. She ended with Who do you love which erm is not vry good I am sry to say. Then she chatted with the chirpy presenter who asked her abt David. She said it was cos of his encouragement that enable her to stand on the stage that night. Then she sang the last verse of Love Can & it was so much better. David did say that she should sing Love Can & Season of Loneliness.
Then David appeared behind her & was so cute as he put his finger to his mouth to ask the audience not to warn her. Anyway the presenter asked her to turn around & it was so sweet. David also sang the last verse of Love Can to her. She didn't cry but came close to it. But she was vry adorable. Then David sang his first song Rain & even tho it was vry much his classic delivery, he still managed to make it sound a bit different & a lot more western sounding which I really liked.
Then he laughed as he said he is 'seeking Susan' but dun think the audience got the pun cos maybe they nvr heard of a movie called Desperately seeking Susan starring Madonna. It was so funny as these rather bad dancers wearing tops in the same shade of pink as his vest came out to dance around him. David was vry good abt it & smiled at them even tho they were kinda obstructing him when he tried to move. 2 lovely things abt this performance. When he is singing the opera part, a dancer wearing traditional costume of Su San came out to dance next to him & she was vry good. Then he rapped 2 lines kinda more lyrical, it was just really really really WAY COOL, not sure if he did it @ the concerts but I LOVE it! Also he sang the Susans at the end differently too. The whole song was so WICKEDLY good.
The last song was I love you & he got the audience singing along as usual. He also told them his NY wishes for good health, time to spend with loved ones & not to earn too much money as it may lead to more problems. I have to say he just gets better all the time. Even tho he was singing to a backing track, he still sounded excellent & make it looked so easy. Just truly amazing & talented. Also advised better stop after David as the last singer is winner of Supergirl who sang or rather murdered 2 english songs, JLo's Let's get loud & Dido's Thank you. Think she sounded better in chinese, well I hope so anyway ^__^

Hunan NY concert

David doing his pointing thing in Hunan NY concert heehee he looked extra nice in his leather jacket & fav pink vest. He sang Rain, Susan Said & I love you. Altho he could not perform with Bibi, they arranged for him to appear on stage just after she sang his song Who do you love.
Bibi was so surprised & stunned. She was feeling blue as she had just apologised to her parents for not being with them to celebrate new year. After David told her she must resolutely continue to sing she hugged him & shed a few tears *awwwwwww* however dun think he wiped her tears haha
It was so nice & bighearted of David to do that cos Bibi is facing sum problems with the management of her career. She seemed to be a vry determined person who wants to do what she want & not what is dictated for her & for sure David is supportive of her. So happy they could get to meet on the stage.
Even on new year eve David dun forget to encourage others & soon he will participate in the Ren Ci show for charity. Sum news here:
Fans of Taiwanese girl band S.H.E had better set aside the whole day for star-chasing, since it has been a year since the trio last visited town. Selina, Hebe and Ella will arrive from Kuala Lumpur via MH603, then do their part for charity at the Ren Ci show, together with Taiwan's David Tao, Alan Ko and Singapore's Kaira Gong.
Also here he is mentioned re private comments he made which was secretly taped but of cos here its assumed he made them publicly. Perhaps more ppl should be more forthright abt this trend of kitchsy, user friendly celebrities but think I am being overly optimistic. Thank god David is still around to give a bit of balance to this kinda packaged music for ktv *sigh*

Watch highlights of the Hunan concert, courtesy Tom.com, David among the last few singers & only a few mins but still can get yr David fix ^__^

Happy New Year

So its 2006 *throw some confetti* soon it will be the Year of the Dog & could be a good one for David as his dog is Lucky ^__^ Can listen to David's New Year Greeting. His in english "It's better to give than to receive". Click to launch player.
So nice to hear his voice my dearest David, hope you get everything you wish for in 2006. Dun worry abt anything, just do what you want to do. Fame is only a passing thing & I dun think its on yr wishlist anyway. Much better to come up with music that ppl still wanna listen even after many yrs like Raise your head & Wish you were here just to name 2 songs that I love vry much.
When David wrote these songs, he probably nvr expect that his fans still loved them so much now that they post them up so others can enjoy. If he knew, he will be vry happy & gratified for sure. So all I ask for in 2006 that my idol go on making sincere music like this & that I always be here wishing him the best. Screencaps of him pretending to be a robot, will post a snippet of it soon okie!
