Teresa Teng in Japan

[hiloviking]

I wish i could have seen her live in concert. I only discovered her a couple of years ago. TT was almost unknown in the western world back when she was a big star in Asia. But with YouTube i can somewhat make up for all those lost years.

I was there about 26 years ago when I was in secondary school. That was the first and last time I saw Teresa on stage. I still remember she decided not to go for commercialise performances any more after the 15th anniversary concert tour except Japan market.

Was she still under contract with Polydor at the time? I was wondering who arranged concerts to be held for her regardless of domestic or international.

I love her voice and missed her. It's so unfortunate that I only have heard her voice but never had a chance to attend her concert.

Yes, she signed up with Polydor KK Japan in 1974. Her contract extended overseas and her Chinese albums at that time were released by Polydor Hong Kong, later it was renamed Polygram.

Yes, she was the last singer to perform in the then National Theatre of Singapore before it was demolished. The most expensive ticket then was about S$80.00, a huge sum in those days. She was then a superstar with no equal.

Yah,

I was very fortunate to see her last concert in Singapore. I have to save for a few months just to afford the cheapest ticket at $50. A lot of money in those days.

But, a truely first class show, Miss you TT, always.

Yes, the venue was then the National Theatre in Singapore. She was the last singer to perform before it was demolished. Then her concert ticket cost about S$80.00. It was a big amount in those days. I was young and couldn't afforded the ticket. She even bought an apartment and stayed in Singapore for that period of time.

that is great, thank you for making this playlist and sharing it !!

I dont think many artists these days are even in the same league as teresa, musically, and i dont know how to put it, or as heavenly in her mannerisms.

[yaokian]

I completely agree with you.

[usagichann]

this was done in singapore, in 84 =) says so in katakana. hence why she's singing a lot of chinese songs

probably a japanese program doing the coverage though, that's why commentary is in japanese.

[makkusu1437]

It's nice to see her interact with the fans, and take song requests. Most artists don't seem to do that these days? But this wasn't in Japan thou, coz she was asking the man whether he was around for work or leisure, or that he lived here. Wouldn't ask a Japanese man that if it were in Japan.

I love Deng Li Jun. The Love Goddess of all Time. God bless her sweet soul forever. She is so charming and beautiful.
