Jay Chou Carnival World Tour 2022

Went to Singapore National Stadium for Jay Chou Carnival World Tour 2022 starting at 8pm. Singapore is first stop of Jay Chou's world tour.

The concert began at about 8.10pm with a circus performance, it lives up to its name of carnival world tour. Carnival World Tour celebrates Mando-pop King Jay Chou’s more than 20 years of achievement in the music industry.

I did not use the complimentary light stick because I have gotten the one that was not working.

Jay Chou started off the first song with 本草纲目, an addicting fast paced rap song that was released in 2006.

用我的方式 改写一部历史 
没什么别的事 跟着我 唸几个字 
山药 当归 枸杞 GO 山药 当归 枸杞 GO 
看我抓一把中药 服下一帖骄傲

斷了的弦.
Jay Chou's concert was a visual treat, he focused a lot on the visual effect and his outfit.

The first special guest was Alan Ko 柯有伦, it has been a long time since I last heard of him.

The second special guest was Cao Yang. I first knew about him from The Secret Jay Chou's Jukebox Musical in 2018 where he was playing the role of male lead and from Sing! China 2020. He sang us the theme song of the musical, 不能說的祕密.

只讓我們相戀 這一季的秋天 
飄落後才發現 這幸福的碎片 
要我怎麼撿

The graphical illusion created a visual feast to the eyes, Jay Chou also brought his friends along to the concert who act as backend singers.

There was a mystery song request part where they will pick random fans and they will sing a portion of the songs behind the numbers chosen.

你要离开我知道很简单
你说依赖是我们的阻碍
就算放开但能不能别没收我的爱
当作我最后才明白

What is Jay Chou's concert without magic performance?
The performance was by his friend and a lucky fan won a pair cat 1 ticket for tomorrow concert.

We were seated in the middle of Cat A and I got a good view of the stage. This was my first time attending Jay Chou's concert and I enjoyed his live performance with so many familiar songs of him. I can sing along most of the songs.

The 2 hours long concert ended with a blast. It was a great night immersing myself in the music of Jay Chou. Watching live performance is totally different from listening to mp3, the excitement of attending concert has been re-ignited.
