hello mr. eric!

I ordered this dvd from HMV Japan. It actually came out a few years ago and I wanted to get it, but unfortunately Yesasia did not sell it, for whatever reason. Since I was ordering something else from HMV, I got this as well. The main reason for getting this was because I went to see her at her Toronto show in March 2005 during Canadian Music Week. My voice also makes an appearance in one of the scenes of the Toronto part. Me yelling “Yeah!” or something like that. The DVD itself is pretty enjoyable, it wasn’t really focused on the actual shows, but it was a more behind the scenes on her travels overseas. You get to see her do some rehearsals and also her walking the streets of the city like a normal person. She was on the TTC, she was walking the PATH, she was shopping on Queen Street. Pretty fun stuff to watch.

I actually met her in person, shook her hand, told her I love her music and even got a picture with her! You can totally tell I’m like freaking happy with that huge smile on my face in that picture. I was also sitting like right in front of her during her set. It was an amazing night. She sounded so beautiful live, her voice was so strong and clear and the acoustics were great.

It’s not everyday where you get to meet someone you admire, respect or just really like. This is definitely something that I will always remember for the rest of my life.
