靜婷

Taiwan Diva Tsin Ting just finished her concert at Star Hall. When asked which singer she appreciates these day, she mentioned our Sandy Lam.

靜婷踩新一代歌手錄音慢

靜婷完成3場演唱會後,前晚舉行慶功宴,她表示最不習慣是要穿高跟鞋演出「演唱會唱得不夠完美,自98年開過個唱後,10多年沒有唱歌,感覺聲線不是最好」。靜婷最開心是發現有不少大學生捧場,「對我來說是鼓勵,吸納新一批歌迷,不只是70、80歲的觀眾」。

有指九展現場音響回音很大,靜婷表示不懂音響問題,但的確有些回音,而她正進行錄音工作,「我那個時代錄音只要3天便完成,不明白新一代錄音錄咁耐」。靜婷表示新一代歌星較欣賞林憶蓮,有指憶蓮已不是新一代,靜婷才補充說泳兒也不錯。對於肥姐不適入院,靜婷表示與肥姐稔熟,「當年看着肥姐入行,但現時不太方便探她」。

靜婷、張偉文襯到絕

靜婷 Tsin Ting

靜婷一連三場的「靜婷50年演唱會」前晚於九龍灣星舉行尾場,張偉文、倫永亮及吳鶯音擔任嘉賓。張偉文為襯靜婷,跟她穿上同款服裝演唱,他稱11歲已認識靜婷,並大讚她才是靚聲王。

謙稱唔成功

吳鶯音在台上表示她89年舉行演唱會時首場便跌倒,要由靜婷頂上,她說:「我大靜婷12年,大家同是狗年,所以在台上有兩隻狗。」靜婷更自嘲自己的廣東話給予觀眾驚喜,她說:「唔知道係畀驚喜定虐待你,我一直冇唱廣東歌,以前錄過一首,叫《未了情》。」

靜婷在台上表示演唱會十分成功,但她自己卻不成功。在慶功宴上,問她為何指自己不成功,她說:「唱得唔夠好,可以再唱好。」問她新一代歌手最欣賞那一位?她稱:「冇乜聽,新一批憶蓮啦,泳兒都幾好。」

Visual Artist – Takagi Masakatsu

If you go to Takagi Masakatsu website, go to Japanese > News, you will see another still picture of Sandy’s Seamless. It’s extremely artistic.

In addition, the visual image during the song 寂寞流星群 is very similar to Takagi’s older work “light park #2″ (2001) which released in DVD+CD “JOURNAL FOR PEOPLE” audio and video collection in 2002 (re-released in 2006). Here is a video clip of the footage. So, it should be Takagi’s work with some re-touching, but not originally for Sandy. Personally, I think it suited the song well, and amazingly beautiful.

As described in his website:
It’s what art at its best is capable of: a sensually gratifying and spiritually healing experience.

In English translation – “Takagi Made a new video work for Sandy Lam, a Chinese female singer. The video will be shown at her next concert in Hongkong, China.” Visual effect of the song “天衣無縫/Seamless” from album 感覺完美 ‘96 is his work.
