Sandy Lam concert 08 Singapore
Many might not know, but i’m a big Sandy Lam fan. To me she have the best asian female vocal till date. Just went to her ’08 Concert in Singapore Indoor Stadium and it was a fantastic experience.
Listening to her voice and songs since 1990, now seeing her sing live is really a surreal experience. I basically grew up with her songs and when some of the songs were sung, fond memories of my younger days came back to me.
The following song was THE song i was listening to when i visited Japan for the first time in the early 90s. I remember holding on to my Aiwa Walkman with this song playing while walking down Shinsaibashi in Osaka looking at the girls walk by. For those who can’t read the Chinese title, it means something like “the girl that walks down the street”.
The following song is also very popular.
Jason Mraz – Live High
I try to picture a girl
Through a looking glass
See her as a carbon atom
See her eyes and stare back at them
See that girl
As her own new world
Though a home is on the surface, she is still a universe
Glory God, oh God is peeking through the blinds
Are we all here standing naked
Taking guesses at the actual date and time
Oh my, justifying reasons why
Is an absolutely insane resolution to live by
Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Live righteously
Try to picture the man
To always have an open hand
And see him as a giving tree
See him as matter
Matter fact he’s not a beast
No not the devil either
Always a good deed doer
And it’s laughter that we’re making after all
The call of the wild is still an ordination why
And the order of the primates
All our politics are too late
Oh my, the congregation in my mind
Is this assembly singing of gratitude
Practicing their lovin for you
Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Oh live righteously
Take it all,
And just take it easy
And celebrate the malleable reality
You see nothing is ever as it seems
Yeah this life is but a dream
Lift me up to the almighty
Raise your hands and start acknowledging
Live high, live high
Live mighty, mighty, mighty,
Oh live righteously
Takin it easy
Live high, live mighty
Oh live righteously
Just take, just just taking it easy
Live high
Oh live mighty, mighty,
Oh live righteously
Take it all, just take it, take it easy
See live high,
Oh live righteously
Just take it easy
