Appreciation of Sammi Cheng’s album

In the record, Sammi Cheng's simple and clear youthful girl look is like a ray of summer evening breeze blowing past her face, which is very refreshing and pleasant. Sammi Cheng's voice at that time was clear and loud, completely different from the calm and mellow voice she has today. The songs in the album mainly talk about some girlish feelings, which makes people feel more relaxed and easier to accept.

Among the two title songs, "Missing" is a cover of the popular Mandarin work "Awakening Time". As far as newcomers are concerned, Sammi Cheng's re-interpretation is very satisfying. Especially the live performance at that time, the standard was quite stable, worthy of being a rookie. The other main song is "Still You", which makes people vaguely hear the shadow of her first singing "Cheers", and she is relatively more engaged in rapping. "Disillusionment" is a version of Vivian Chow's subsequent masterpiece "Love Is Not Old" with the same tune and different lyrics. The performance of newcomer Sammi Cheng is no less than that of the head of Jade Girl, who was gradually becoming popular at the time. Another song written by Pan Weiyuan, "The Promise of Expectation," naturally exudes the aura of a lonely girl, which is quite endearing. Chen Shaoqi's "Farewell" seems to be the companion piece "Night Train" to the famous song "Night Train" written for Priscilla Chan. It is also a contemporary song presented by Sammi Cheng and the musicians behind her to the immigration wave at that time. As Hong Kong's number one female singer in fast singing since the mid-to-late 1990s, Sammi Cheng also revealed her potential in this area in her debut work, and "Colorful Dance" is the most outstanding work among them. Sammi Cheng's singing, which is somewhat casual and free, is very fascinating. Sammi Cheng's performance, especially the control of emotions, voice, and breath, actually gave me a faint feeling of SANDY. No wonder SANDY's producer at the time, Xu Wan, once said that if he were to find one of the new generation of female singers to produce a record for her, he would definitely choose Sammi Sammi - because Sammi Cheng has the urban feel and style he wants. temperament. The ten works in "Sammi Cheng", whether they are fast songs or slow songs, are all very listenable. Five lyricists, Pan Weiyuan, Lin Zhenqiang, Zhou Limao, Lin Xi, and Chen Shaoqi, wrote all the lyrics for the album, outlining a Sammi Cheng who is both active and quiet.
