Linda Chung's First Solo Concert

​

Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣) held the first of her two “Love Love Love” concerts at the Kowloon Bay Trade & Exhibition Centre on August 22. Artists including Shirley Yeung (楊思琦), Wong He (王喜), Nancy Sit (薛家燕), Grace Wong (王君馨), and Desmond Pang (彭紀諺) went to support their friend for the big night. Throughout the concert, Linda twice possessed tears in her eyes.

Linda made her first appearance in white pants and a white top, which revealed her hips. A group of fans rushed up the stage to take photos of their idol and caused a commotion. The first song Linda sang in the night was a remix version of Priscilla Chan’s (陳慧嫻) “Silly Girl” <儍女>. The beat was altered to a fast and joyous one, and Linda danced while singing. Although she seemed a little breathless, she told the audience it was a new attempt. Linda asked, “Did that count as a breakthrough? I’ve never tried such a long dance. Did you guys watch? Can I change my image?”

Later in the night, Linda changed into a dress that revealed her back and played the piano while she sang. She became so excited that a teardrop landed on her face. “I promised myself I wouldn’t cry. But a teardrop still came out,” Linda said.

When Linda sang the song, “I Will Marry You Tomorrow” <明天我要嫁給你>, fans yelled out, “Okay!” Their warmth and support put Linda in great spirits. Janice Vidal (衛蘭) and Allison Tse (謝文欣) were the guest stars of the night. Linda exclaimed, “Singers usually have crew members surrounding them and it’s hard to communicate. Once, Janice took the initiative to come and talk to me. She praised my good singing and we could both speak in English. We became great friends really quickly.”

Linda could no longer hold back her tears as she sang the last song of the night. “No matter how tedious I am from this concert, I hope everyone will be able to bring the positive energy of music and love back home,” she said through sobs.
