I've just found out that in 1969, someone took this song, and turned it into a Cantonese styled operatic song. ha ha. I'm not from Taiwan, but I vaguely heard this somewhere during my childhood. Vienna has an amazing voice.
Amazing beauty that shines through her in a way distinct from her english songs, which are all terrific, but this sings from a deeper place that i find very touching. Thanks for posting!
This became a prison buddy sing along song in the movie Prison on Fire with Chow Yun Fat. It's funny how the arrangement can drastically change the feel and tenor of a song.
Shivers went down my spine. Great camera angle too, with the green leaves in the background, made it really easy to get lost in the dreamy images of the song.
Saw her tonight at the Roxy. She was fantastic. Truly accomplished and her accompanying players were great as well. Too bad she didn't play this song. Still, she played Radiohead's Idioteque, AND I HAPPENED TO HAVE A KID A T-SHIRT ON! Sweet!
Please, Please come to holland, utrecht, stads schouwburg. I really like this music. it's really fairytale like music. beautiful strong voice, jet subtle. I love this music.
Vienna is a very special person. I adore her. She is a poet, singer, song writer and I am so glad I found her. My children are also fans of hers. This song in Chinese is lovely. I have been enjoying her music for the past few months and hope to see her in concert here in Eugene or Portland, Oregon.
Great singing! No flashy costume,gimmick or any unnecessary make up on Vienna. Just a pure look of herself and everything is so natural and wonderful. A very lovable video of Vienna singing this beautiful song.
Yes, I have the whole concert! But the last two I posted (Maya and the autograph thing) seem to have turned out worse than normal, so I'm going to either try to upload again or maybe even get new editing software to encode the videos exactly as YouTube wants them for maximum quality. My current software, which came with my camcorder, can't do this.
awesome! it would be nice to have good quality in these vids of course, but maybe u could upload what uv got in the meantime? im eager to see the concert again! especially the first 2 songs cuz i got there a bit late... XD
You're welcome! No, I didn't see her, even though I stuck around until after Vienna finished signing autographs. Or maybe I've forgotten what she looks like. (I've only seen her once at a Tower Records concert about 4 years ago.)
You know, first time I heard this piece, I didn't like it much... but now it keeps growing on me the more I listen to it, and this is quite the beautiful performance. Thanks for posting it =)
You're welcome! You've expressed my thoughts almost exactly. I do like this piece, but since I know the original and I've heard it many times, I don't seem to want to listen to Vienna's version so much. But this is such gorgeous singing and playing that I just had to post it first. Much more to come from this concert!

You pronunciation is generally good except minor errors like “Chen沉” , " rang讓", and "shi 是“. Your voice is good and you played the keyboard nicely.
