Sandy Lam in concert 2007






As her die-hard fans for years, bought ticket at once even though no friend is available to join me tonight. This concert is quite different from her past concerts, away from HK Stadium but taken place at HITEC, no guest singers, produced by a team consisting a number of Japanese musicians, great musicians on percussions, Angelita Li and Patrick Lui as the vocal, etc. I like this concert more than her last two, more blues and her best works in new arrangement. Most impressive ones are 哭 and 願, with pipa, erhu and violin, giving a new taste in the music. Songs chosen are widely spread from her earliest album to latest, not much works by her ex-husband, Jonathan Lee, well, it's understandable. More songs selected from her 都市觸覺 series, which are still her most famous works. Before the break, two and the only two exciting songs 逃離鋼筋森林 and 芝加哥的故事 brought the atmosphere to highest. Afterwards, the songs are more sentimental and touching. I was very moved on her songs in the second half of her concert. Sandy played on the keyboard for few songs! One more credit should be given to the multimedia effect on the stage, light and stage design are minimal in style, good combination with Sandy's low profile image. Glad to have such an unforgettable concert!
