I took a cab with my grandmother on the 9th September 2007 to Kallang Indoor Stadium for the " 4 Divas " concert. It was quite an unusual experience because I've never went to a concert with my grandma before. haha.. it was nice though.. to spend some time with her. I also notice that there were alot of cantonese audiences.
The concert stared off with the 4 divas with a power house song... their vocals are incredible. All very strong but different. Maria (肥妈 - 玛莉亚) started off first her solo first. A funny lady... she mentioned she had 6 children and 11 grandchildren! I was shocked. Then, she mentioned her "hanging/flabby arms". Damn funny... she said when she sing "london bridge is falling down" to her grandson, she say her hanging arm really "falling" down. Haha.. and she want to "chop chop chop" it off. I laughed to tears. I was inspired by her frankness and shes really comfortable in her own skin. No wonder shes a diva. She also cried when singing a song because shes soo touched. Abit touching.
Next came, Anita Sarawak with her newly curled black tresses. Not very recognisable. She was really energetic and danced and sashayed around like a diva/mad woman. haha... The songs she sang includes :- 'Jing Tian Bu Hui Jia' and 'mambo number 5'. She dressed in a beautiful green flowing dress designed by a top designer.
The 4 Divas then started a combi and the Elisa Chan (陳潔靈), from Hong Kong started to sing her solo with a mixture of chinese and cantonese songs. Elisa had short short hair with a shining shining jacket. She came towards the audience (with her husband carrying her off the stage) when she sang a cantonese song. Her voice is nice too... smooth and melodic. Shes the "youngest" of the 4 divas.
Francis Yip joined her with a dual cantonese song. Francis Yip is a really really great singer. She has a very strong voice. Powerful. Her theme song is "ShangHai Tan" and she also sang an english song about "You don't send me flowers anymore". Lovely and Sweet 59 yeared old lady. She also mentioned she didn't eat rice for 3 weeks. Amazing.
Overall, It was enjoyable. I went for supper with mama after that at Oasis Restaurant as they're famous for their Taiwan Porriage. We ordered Sambal Kangkong, Dao Xi Fish and "Cai Por with Large intestines". Nice supper.
I went home, sleepy but glad with a song in my head.
