[1/16]Sun's night
Stefanie overcomes jitters, technical glitches to deliver glowing performance
STEFANIE Sun wasn't in a good mood in the days leading up to her concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Saturday night. The singer was stressed about performing on home ground.
.
To make things worse, her chest was inexplicably tight before the show and several audio glitches in her microphone and earpiece occurred during the first few songs.
.
But the 27-year-old, sporting freshly dyed red hair, eventually shook it all off to deliver a dazzling performance.
.
Before a 9,000-strong crowd, Stefanie crooned 29 songs ranging from upbeat tunes such as Run, Green Light and Turbo to ballads I'm Not Upset, Same Kind and Encounter.
.
Clearly in top form, Stefanie avoided her habit of occasionally faltering while hitting the high notes or singing in falsetto.
.
Bearing all the hallmarks of a typical Cantopop gig, the two-and-a-half-hour show, presented by MediaCorp TV12 VizPro Entertainment, featured a four-sided stage, snazzy lighting, eight costumes and generous doses of pyrotechnics.
.
This came as no surprise, as Stefanie's concert tour began last September in Hong Kong, where she will perform again this weekend.
.
Even with all the bells and whistles, Stefanie never let the stage effects steal the limelight. Sure, she tangoed, tap-danced and twirled a drum major baton, but the bulk of her efforts went into the singing.
.
While delivering Silent All These Years, she sat on a high-backed chair with only a spotlight to illuminate her.
.
The audience — which included Stefanie's parents, grandmother, other members of her extended family and celebrities Zoe Tay and David Gan — also lapped up performances by the singer's special guests, Taiwanese band F.I.R and fellow homegrown singer Tanya Chua.
.
F.I.R performed First Day with Stefanie, while Tanya, playing the guitar, joined the popular singer for Starting Point and Stranger.
.
Fittingly, the last line of Stefanie's closing song, Cloudy Day, was sung in complete darkness, a clever allusion — if it was meant as such — to the singer's June 2000 debut, where only her voice, and not Stefanie herself, was introduced through the song.
.
Speaking at the post-show party, the singer modestly gave her performance 75 out of 100, with points lost due to her pre-show jitters and the audio glitches.
.
"There's great pressure performing in Singapore," she said. "In other places, I'm just a singer, but here I'm a daughter, an auntie and a friend to people in the audience."
.
And while Stefanie felt bad about letting her parents bear the brunt of her frustration, all was evidently forgiven as they beamed proudly when Stefanie gave them a shout-out onstage.
.
They had good reason to smile, Singapore's favourite daughter having shone brightly once again.
