Recently, I posted my Asia 54 Review. I stated that it was my favorite Asia ever. I loved every single song and each one of them touched me in a different way. Here are my top 10
--
10. Lam Tho Tinh Em Doc: Dalena, Phuong Thao, & Ngoc Le - This song was very soothing. I loved that the two women have such strong vocals but toned the volume to match the song. Ngoc Le & Phuong Thao always impress me. This is their 4th apperance in Asia.
09. Kinh Khoa & Viet Nam Niem Nho: Hop Ca - Very sad emotional song for me personally. Kinh Kho reminds me of a Buddha chanting a prayer. Who knew that Asia could get together to put such ha superb opening with all singers?! I DID! Viet Nam Niem Nho was so inspiring the sound of all the voices from left to right is so strong that it lifts you up
08. Trom Nhin Nhau & Ai Bieu Em Lam Thinh: M. Huyen, D. The Luan, T. Vu - Dang The Luan brought down the house with his usual strong vocals! I loved the second half with My Huyen & Tuan Vu. Like I said, My Huyen reminds me of an older version of Nhu Quynh. She acted so cute! She has such great stage presence and when she is singing, all eyes are on her.
07. Dong Song ky Niem & Mot Nua Doi Em: Quoc Khanh & Thien Kim - WOW! Quoc Khanh was so good! He really shocked me! When I saw him on the poster, I thought he would be one of those wannabe pop asia stars but he is a ballad person! His voice showcases many songs and Dong Song Ky Niem really matches him. It touched my heart listening to him hit the high notes! Thien Kim was so stunning. Asia is defintely her home, not any other production.
06. Con Rong Chau Tien: Ngoc Ha & Lam Nhat Tien - Ngoc Ha looked like a queen and she clearly wasn't afraid to show that. The movement of her arms were so dramatic that it stole your heart because she was so graceful at the same time. Despite her little figure, the vocals are a whole nother story. Her voice is not loud to make that clear. It is strong. Very low but very high. I love that about her. Lam Nhat Tien fits these dramatic type themes because then he can hit the really high notes and act as if you were watching a play.
05. Hoa Binh Oi, Viet Nam Oi!: Doanh Doanh, Phuong Dung, & Trung Chinh - Very happy song. Phuong Dung & Trung Chinh master the song. They know how to control their falsetto and know which notes are right to go high on. Doanh Doanh on the other hand was really bad. lolz. JOKING! She was so cute and she is starting to get control over her voice.
04. Tinh Dau Mot Thoi Ao Trang: Hop Ca - Another Hop ca type songs. What an interesting group. I would have never chosen these 9 to sing together. but the difference of their voices melts it into one harmony which makes it sound a whole lot better than them choosing just pop or just que huong artists.
03. Days And Nights Of Missing You: Thuy Huong & Evan - Very upbeat song. Okay, just to make this clear, it really does look like Thuy Huong is just wearing sneakers! I can't tell though. Her voice sounds really deep now. Not that pitchy teeny pop sound. Her voice is so sultry and sexy! Just like Tu Quyen! Let's not compare now but she just reminds me of her, vocal wise. Evan is a great dancer. Much better moves than me lolz. He is so lucky to be with Thuy Huong that close! lolz. jk. I think that he is much better dueting with girls, guys or going solo instead of having Asia 4 holding him back. He has alot of potential that needs to be seen.
02. Dieu Gi Do & Mai Yeu Nguoi Thoi: Trish, Cardin, & Chosen - What a great match up! Love the songs! Trish has an amazing sweet voice. I think she had really made a name for herself in this industry, in and out. Cardin has cool moves as well. His voice wasn't exactly up to par as I expected in hitting the high notes but he was their. I still remember Mai Yeu Nguoi Thoi from the LK: Nhu Vat Nang from Asia 51 feat. Anh Minh, Vina, & NiNi.
01. Me Yeu: Lam Thuy Van - What can I say, Lam Thuy Van is a true diva. Giving all her heart into this one great song. She connects to a song in a way that she cried even. The notes that she touched that made you think her voice would crack turned to an even stronger vocal performance for Lam Thuy Van. That's why I chose Lam Thuy Van for #1 and because I simply love this song!
