[Richard]

Thanks for the links, Jennifer!

I fixed two of them for you by adding hyperlink tags.

I've found a slightly incomplete video of Hayley singing "The Moon Represents My Heart" in Taipei:

Lost in Translation again :

The moon represents my Heart

Below a translation by Eastentra which makes much more sense to me.

The moon reflects my love to you...


The moon represents my heart sounds so cold, clinical, mathematical. Let x equal :

@hayleywestenra's rendition was amazing, not to mention she is so beautiful. Every song she performed was so great, even better than listening CD.
* Hayley sang "Prayer" with angelic voice as the overture, all the audience souls just got salvation. * "Flowers in the raining night" this is Taiwanese traditional folk song, but I bet most young Taiwan people can't sing it, it's pretty difficult, and just show how talented Hayley is.
* After interval, Hayley played piano + sang"River" It's coming on Christmas~ the melody is brilliant.
* "Pokarekare Ana" is my favorite, though Hayley said it's a sad song. I don't know why, I am an optimist, but I always prefer sorrowful songs, there must be a dark shadow in my deep mind I never found, lol!
* "Amazing Grace" I don't need to say much, masterpiece, of course.
* The last one "Wuthering Heights" I hope that Hayley can record it again, her voice was so powerful and conquered everybody's heart. Incredible!
* Hayley sang two encores, she knew us by heart, yes, she sang "The moon represents my heart", you guys can image so happy we were.
Thank you very much, Hayley, you really made my day! Looking forward to seeing you back soon, just like a passionate male fan said at yesterday's concert, you and all of us heard : "We love you, Taiwan loves you."

The solo version of Moon was beautiful, but I missed the vocalise part.

And here is a much better version of Flowers in the Rainy Night, as far as sound quality: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEpizLrFt0A&feature=youtu.be

Ohiyooo was too hard on himself by saying he screwed it up, because he certainly did not!

Woah I have a lot to catch up on after being away for a few days!!
Thanks everyone for the reviews, pictures and videos...i've seen some of the videos...i need to find the time to watch the rest but with exams and university deadlines soon i'm not sure when that will be ...i love the new song!...it certainly proves that i can listen to anything Hayley sings without necessarily being able to understand any of the words!...i just get so taken away with her voice
Thanks again for the reviews and photos...I love Hayley's dress too ...and these concerts certainly sound wonderful!!

I think the blue-green dress is the oneshe wore at St Albans (more from the description in the review than the video). Libby will be pleased!

Yes, Martin, I was pleased when I saw it.

The white one is i believe the "Angel" dress that she wore in the show "The Angel and the Fallen" at Salisbury Cathedral. That is the first time she wore it as far as I know.

It is not as long as I had originally thought. I think these are the first pictures I have seen of it full length.

hi,
i must have read #220 wrong cos i thought it said she wore it in chichester 2007. which cant be right because she wore a green dress and a lovely black dress with a floral print... salisbury is correct martin congratulations on remembering that...

anyway, angel dress is quite an apt description

I really like the flower in her hair. And I recognize the blouse as the one she wore when she sang Santa Lucia for a "singing competition"... I think it was the Michael Ball show, if I'm not mistaken.

is there a link to the original page in this forum, or the main site showing that picture. because i cant find any reference to her wearing that white dress in any concert in 2007 let alone in chichester

[Libby]

I'm afraid you might have to venture over to the Fashion thread for that. :rollin I'm sure that Jillian gave a link to it somewhere in this thread. The picture of it was not the best quality, so it's somewhat difficult to make out, but it's most likely the same dress. Same design, same time she'd been wearing the black version. Just not the best lighting.
