Hanya 2 hari lagi untuk saya menghafal lagu P. Ramli bertajuk "Burung Kenari". Sangat lucu waktu rehearsal malangnya semua video yang telah ku rakamkan tidak boleh di downloadkan. Saya tidak menyangka perkara ini akan menjadi kenyataan kepada saya. Tapi nasib baik lar ada kawan2 membantu saya, sebab lagu ini pertama kali saya dengar dan pertama kali saya nyanyi.P. Ramli's songs are very meaningful and simple. Moreover it relates to a lot of the older generation as they appreciate it more. I made it a point to learn more of P. Ramli's songs and various other musicians from the yesteryears. We never know, maybe someday i am required to sing songs like this for private functions.
Show night, i was not aware on the amount of people that were comming, but when i went on stage, it was a full house. Every seats were taken, VIP boots were filled with important people from the cabinat and Royal families. It was a night to remember. I would like to say a nightmare as i was not so confident with the song. but confident or not as a musician the show must go on. This is something that i always thought would happen tosomeone who already has a name in the industy. Nevertheless, i was given the opportunity of a lifetime and i did my part in it. I sang my song well with claps and people singing along to my song as well. Although i made some minor mistakes with the lyrics but no one cared, they just enjoyed it.
I will never forget that night. Hahaha, i lost myself on stage and sang with all my heart. Before that i cant memorize the lyrics and the melody, i was worried of a black out. But when i went on stage i felt as thou my body was overtaken and i was another person. I just did my thing and many who heard me trying hard to memorize the songs were very proud that i made it through amazingly. I prayed and thanked God it worked out well for me and then the audiances claped their hands.
A lesson to be learned. Next time i will always be ready and make sure everything is well prepared.
