A piece of summer, a peace of cheer

a piece of summer, a peace of cheer



went to cheer chen's concert with kaicheng on saturday... noticed her when she sang "还是会寂寞" many years ago... then 2 years ago she was promoting "华丽的冒险" album, she became one of my favourite singer... like her clean sweet voice + 'eventful' singing and above all she is talented.... in that album i especially like, "旅行的意义"....

saturday night's concert was definitely a memorable one... me and kaicheng were immersed in her soulful singing... it was like a music therapy session.... the accoustic was nice, her singing was crystal clear.... every song was full of emotions... she looked and sounded so special that night...

she appeared like an singing angel, in a white dress with a guitar, and started off with smooth and slow pieces - singing and strumming the guitar... after singing a few songs then she greeted shyly to the audience "晚安,我是陈绮贞" and the audience laughed, because she sounded really very shy and softly with her cute voice... the mood of the concert slowly moved from "九份的咖啡店", "躺在你的衣柜", "还是会寂寞", "华丽的冒险" towards the climax when she sang "让我想一想", "女明星", "吉他手", "1234567"...almost everyone stood up... me and kaicheng stood up and wanted to 'secretly' walked to the front to take a few closer photos of her and we managed to 'steal' some shots, but it still looked far....At one point of the concert, she came on the stage to the audience... both of us rushed forward and she was standing infront of us!!Cheer also brought us a new song inspired by her concern for the less fortunate ones and an old song that had never been recorded in any of her album. Then she surpposely ended the concert with "旅行的意义", before the song, the big screens were showing the discussion about whether to get Cheer to put on a helmet while singing this song, many fans followed suit by wearing different types of helmets from home made to biker's helmet... after singing the song, she "bye!" and left the stage immediately...

everyone were shouting for encore, "encore! *clap clap clap*, encore!! *clap clap clap*, encore!!!" then she reappeared wearing her concert t-shirt with a vest.. she performed "和你在一起" "慢慢长夜" and left the stage... but we wanted more... "ENCORE! ENCORE!" both of us don't bother about the security and rushed to the front of the stage to wait for miracle to happen.... and she really came back to stage and she said "其实我不善于说话,今晚我们唱歌吧!" all of us were so happy.... and she sang "告诉我", a familiar song to all, everyone were singing together with her... she left the stage again...but audience were still very enthusiastic... chanting her name and asking her not to leave...after awhile, she reappeared again looking emotional, and said she also don't wanna leave... and she sang "太聪明".... lights were on after she finished singing... we thought the chances of her reappearing is low so both of us walked towards the exit while a handful of the audience still standing in front of stage chanting encore... just before we reached the middle of the hall, those people shouted and screaming again...she reappeared on stage for the 5th time! "微凉的你" then she and her team held hand in hand and thanked us after the song... finally, everyone were more willing to leave now....

this concert was my first concert... and i'm glad that she was the 1st artiste i've got to watch and listen! alot of the songs sounded very familiar, even though i don't know their titles, but i'm sure i'll be searching those songs and keeping more of them in my library of songs.... i enjoyed the concert with kaicheng too, he is crazy over Cheer... me too! kekez... she is so special!!!
