On December 1, Raymond Lam (林峯) held a premiere event for the music video of his comeback single, “Heart Attack” in the streets of Causeway Bay. The full version of the music video played for the first time on a large TV screen mounted on one of the buildings, attracting many passersby to stop by and watch. Swarmed by fans after appearing on stage, Raymond was taken aback by the crowd’s enthusiasm. However, he was very happy at seeing such positive responses to the video. “It’s been a while since I’ve felt this nervous about appearing at a function,” said Raymond. The actor and singer, who was very involved in his album’s marketing discussions, said he wanted to do something different this time. “Originally, we thought about holding an official press conference like in the past. My team and I worked on this comeback for almost a year, and wanted to make a more unique return to the scene. After all, it’s been two years since I last released a new song, and we want more people to know about it. The best way to promote it is outside in the streets, because not everyone has access to press conferences.” Raymond will be turning 36 years old on December 8. He expressed that he would be working that day, and that he will be making many event appearances throughout December to promote his new single. Asking if he plans to go on a trip with girlfriend Karena Ng (吳千語) for his birthday, he said, “We’ll see if we have time, but she is Thailand right now filming a movie. I’ll be focusing on my music at the time-being.” As Raymond chose to plug his new song in December, he may not be eligible to compete in Hong Kong’s four major music award shows this year. Raymond said that his new single was already ready to be released two months ago, but he decided to postpone the release date because he values quality. He will continue to plug new singles in the next few months, and will be releasing his studio album sometime in March or April 2016. Earlier, Raymond revealed that he had turned down a role in movie version for the TVB drama Line Walker <使徒行者>, which is currently in production. The movie stars returning cast member Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼), including new additions Louis Koo (古天樂), Nick Cheung (張家輝), and Francis Ng (吳鎮宇). Raymond said, “This is a good cast, but the most important member should be the producer. As long as he is still here, then I have confidence in the movie.” Mentioning that TVB wanted to invite the original cast back to film the television drama sequel of Line Walker, Raymond said, “We’ll talk about it. I need to check my schedule.” Creds: Oncc
shinobi That's usually the case with upbeat songs. I know in K-pop they usually have a normal MV, then a dance version as well. It's really only ballads that gets the storyline MV now, and even that they'll throw in random shots of them lip syncing.
