Leslie's
Passion Tour 2001 Grand Final is an event that I will never forget. His
singing, performance, the music, lights,
stage settings etc etc, all were so perfectly done. This time, the
atmosphere was even better than last time in Aug in Hong Kong. I noticed
there were many overseas fans, mainly from
Japan and Shanghai. They were cheering from the start of the show
until the end, every single night. Whenever it came to fast songs,
everyone stood up and danced.
The
run-down of the show was quite similar to the ones in last Aug. Other than
including some new songs, the main difference
was the ballet dancers for the songs 'Best Love' and 'Bewildered'.
The part when he sang 'Bewildered' was the best,
both singing as well as acting. Although it's similar
to the MTV version, yet, the feel was so different when viewing it 'live',
even better effect and feel.
In the
last show, I was very lucky having a ticket right in the centre second
row. I could see Leslie very clearly, even
clearer than the one in Toronto, as the distance between the stage and the
seats were much closer in Hong Kong than in
Toronto. Just like previous nights, Leslie said hello to everybody.
He also
said he knew there were people from mainland China, Japan, Korea, Canada.
But this time, he mentioned London as well! I was
a bit surprised but very happy when I heard that!
Leslie sang
some additional songs in the encore part that night. The atmosphere
was very touching. Couldn't stop the tears when he sang 'Thousand
Thousand Songs', the lines '......which year, which month, we can sing
together again like tonight........', '.......leaving you at midnight, the
future road might be long and lonely......'. Probably because I was
leaving Hong Kong right after the concert that night, the feelings towards
those words were much stronger.....
Although I
have attended all six shows, yet, still, I wish there were more......
