A big highlight of my Singapore trip was catching a concert by Anpu 安溥 (張懸) at the Esplanade concert hall. It was an intimate stage for an acoustical 16-song affair with one of my favourite female singer / song-writer. The night felt like a unique experience as Anpu decided on a personal set list, singing only the songs she wanted to sing... including covers of songs by Neil Young, Sheryl Crow, Cat Power, 吳青峰, 蘇打綠, 齐秦, 孫燕姿, etc. And like true fans of Anpu, I always love when she banters eloquently and vulnerably, with her fans in between songs.
Here, she sings a song that was written for her by her best friend 吳青峰 (solo artist, and lead singer of Sodagreen 蘇打綠). We are lucky that this endearing friendship lead to the creation of an iconic song.
