I love the purple dress XD


That is extremely doubtful, but she will most likely be nominated for a CBA, and hopefully this time she'll win! I can't imagine what album that would win over Paradiso. And hopefully she'll sing a Paradiso song during the show. And maybe wear that purple dress! ;)

Thanks Ross, and Frank! [image]

I've added that video to our Facebook page, but I'll leave the shorter version up as it was a different performance. :)

Well done Frank, great work, especially "Sweet as Honey". I liked the way that Hayley modified her body language and presentation to a more Eastern style for this song.

That is quite probably Hayley's best performance of "Sonny" ever.

It is always noticable when we hear Hayley revisits a song she hasn't performed for a while, how much she has developed and improved as an artist. There is always something about the performance that is new and more powerful,and even on an amateur video like this one, the quality of the performance comes through. So thanks Libby, and I gather Frank, for making this available.

If I'd been at the Taichung concert, I'd have been devastated to learn that I'd missed Pokarekare Ana. But, if I'd been in Tainan, I would've been just as devastated to know that I missed out on Sonny! LOL

I wonder how she decides what songs to sing where? Does the audience request them?
