There is a postcard on my desk. Its edges are bend and the bold white fonts scream:
That one sentence summarizes the concert, although the propaganda on Contact Lens Solution isn't part of what I feel.
When Zhu Wei asked why I was going to Jolin Tsai's concert in the first place when all I'm going to do is come back and criticize it, she was sort of right.
I did steel myself for the concert. Lets face it, its no secret that Singing isn't what it is all hyped up to be nowadays.
All i can say is this,Damn, that girl can sing. I was so shocked that for the first fifteen minutes that i kind of understood what it felt like being an animal caught in the glaring headlights of a car:
"I'm going to die. Ooh Pretty lights!"
Absolute terror and wonder at the same time.
Has anyone noticed how Singaporeans aren't very enthusiastic? If two girls were waving their hands wildly and screaming and blocking your view of the stage...
Would you not stand as well?
Its almost like the nation of Singapore missed "Attending a phenomenally successfully Pop star's concert 101".
You are supposed to let go, you are supposed to do what is not socially acceptable.
All they did was sit with crossed arms, lean back and stare at us as if we were interrupting a classical repertoire.
What did they teach in school during the prehistoric times?
The concert has proven something to me.
The existence of talent even in the murkiest, sweetest and commercialised stream of pop music.
