Jonah Jones Rugby Sevens 2010

“Fun In The Sun” was the theme for the 2010 Jonah Jones Rugby Sevens event that was held at the Royal Selangor Club Sport Annex at Montkiara. So emotional music was certainly out of the question, we needed a snappy fast track to meet the organizes requirements.

Previously to this Melissa was just singing mostly ballads and slow numbers. So when the organizers of the event said she needed to sing a fast number we all went blank. After much thought, we brought 3 songs to the table. Absolutely Everybody by Vanessa Amorosi, I’m Alive by Celine Dion and What A Feeling by Irene Cara, they picked the latter.

Now don’t get me wrong, I am a big fan of Flash Dance but when I listened to the original track the obliviously prominent 80’s feel bothered me. So I found myself remixing it to bring it up-to-date.

On the night of the performance, Sasa was the youngest and only karaoke performer who did not need the aid of the lyrics on the TV screen to sing the song. It resulted in her walking up on stage and making the crowd go wild. Needless to say her solo performance was a success with people from the crowd asking for more as she left the building.

Ambushed at Artista!

..... It's Was September 10, 2010.

Not knowing that I specifically brought her to Artista to sing one song as guess performer, Melissa performed this piece beautifully as if she was ready and willing to do so. The number “Wo Zhi Zai Hu Ni” made popular by Teresa Teng was not one of her regular songs, but as you can see from the video attached below she did a brilliant job faking it.

The crowd at Artista was stunned at Melissa’s vocal range, and she being so young, it was obvious that she’ll only get better and better.

This was also her first time experiencing a Crazed Fan!... :D

Artista is located in the swanky Tropicana City Mall at jalan SS 20/27 petaling jaya.
