Music Evolution Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10

Highly recommend this DVD. It's refreshing to watch a concert that focuses on music through the collaboration of top notch musicians to the musical rearrangements led by acclaimed Anthony Lun. I especially enjoyed tracks 7 & 9 where Sandy's live performance rivals the studio versions. The images projected onto the backdrop to compliment each song were breath taking [my favorite was projected for track 20]. Although it's tempting to just pop in the first disc to begin watching the concert, I think you'll get more out of it if you watch the documentary disc first b/c it provides some background to the musicians who are "celebs" in their own right and also provide some insight to Sandy's thought process and concept for this concert.

My only negative remark about the DVD is that although it's shot in HD, the post production team decided to add back the noise for artistic effect which in mind, defeats the purpose of shooting it in HD.

But overall, I really admire Sandy for going against the norm to stage this type of concert where many of the songs are side tracks and ballad heavy. I don't know of many artists, local and international, who can stage a concert from side tracks and still manage to perform to a sell out crowd.

A Wonderful Surprise Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10

Sandy Lam has been very generous to us eager music fans. Between 2000 and 2007, Sandy has entertained us with 4 sets of concerts. 2002 was a fan favourite with many hit singles performed. 2004 was a collaboration with Anthony Lun and the Hong Kong Orchestra providing a classy affair. 2005 was to coincide the release of her first full length Cantonese album in ten year, Original Colour. With this latest concert, theres no coinciding new album release. Held in mid-November last year, its almost a personal indulgence from Sandy. Comprising of pre-dominantly album cuts, with a few hits thrown in between, its not a mainstream project that Sandy is taking us on and quite a daring move, as well. With such an extensive catalogue, who is to know what is to be expected?

Sandys vocals are top notch in this series of concerts; all 25 tracks are brilliantly performed. The set is ballad heavy, and there is no fast medleys incorporated, unlike her previous three concerts. If anything, she closes the concert with a lyric less track called Incomplete where its just Sandy humming. Despite being ballad heavy, Sandy does offer a lot of variety in terms of content and delivery style. While some songs are performed to perfection that it rivals the studio versions, others are re-arranged to provoke a fresh sense of adaptation.

For those who are after the hits, thrown into the mix is Cry, Chicago Story, Lonely Shooting Stars, Rush, Rush, Feeling Perfect & End. The thing about this live concert is that its almost like listening to a new album, as most of these album cuts, we tend to not pay as much attention to, as the plugged singles.

This concert is really more thought provoking than to get your blood pumping as Sandy takes you on a journey to explore the depths of all your sensory pleasures. With the tag line of come as U are, be who U are, one cant help but feel that with this concert, Sandy really has nothing left to prove, but this collection of songs, is what she enjoys singing most and is the concert where she feels most at home. You'll be guaranteed to be thinking of the performances, long after the concert has finished.
