brian myknight

I just came back from Brian McKnight's concert at the Esplanade Concert Hall.

He was so good, it hurts.

To watch him perform, I was in disbelief/awe
and I constantly questioned myself why the hell i was singing.



Negativity aside,
I always watch live shows with a very intent concentration that seems funny to some of my friends.

Instead of bopping and waving hedonistically,
I find myself analysing his charm: what he said, how he said it, his anecdotes,
how it linked seamlessly with his freestylin music,
how he rearranged his music,
improvised on his classic One Last Cry...

Brilliantly executed.

Before this all sounds too technical,
I should say
I
was
completely
hypnotised,
mesmerised

hold on to your jaws.



you should also check out his series in Brazil,
where it's nothing but acoustic guitar, and vocals.
in case you haven't figured that is soooooooo my kinda thing.



Enjoy :)

finally it's tour season again!

I missed the concert but thanks for sharing the beautiful live video. Was feeling quite down but quickly re-inspired by his singing again.

Long live good music! ^__^
