have been looking forward to this since i got my tickets. i had wanted to hear more of him after having went for his last concert in july. (i think that was wat sparked my craze for canto oldies to the point of no return. hah.) but as i was telling xf, i had a nagging feeling that this time round he would be singing more mandarin songs, which was the case, much to my disappointment. and unlike the last time, he conversed with the audience in mandarin too. though i love everything abt the man (ok, except his supposedly popular hit 吻别), the jokes would have been funnier in cantonese. and another major major disappointment for me was that he didnt sing 李香兰! me and my fren were so looking forward to hearing it live again lor :( but ok lah, he compensated it with other songs like 遥远的她，月半弯，蓝雨，离开以后, 只想一生跟你走 which i so love too.
and as told by the man himself, in his 23 year career, he's released over 70 albums, sung over 1000 songs and held over 500 concerts. some statistics there huh? its little wonder why he's considered the god of songs. but, i quote, even though he's hailed as the god, he's just human. cos towards the end of his 2nd last song, his voice cracked (but only slightly!) though a tad embarrassing, he was still able to make a joke out of it. but you couldnt really fault him lah, it was the 93rd concert of his world tour, even God himself would have been exhausted. and as expected, he ended the concert with 祝福. although the concert lasted for abt 4hrs, i was surprised it was ending already. somehow, it would have been more complete with 李香兰. sigh.
