Well.. surprisingly... even before I penned my thoughts about APOSII SG concert, there's already a big "hoohaa" going on in the Singapore online community. Apparantly, our national chinese newspaper 聯合早報 published a very subjective & personal review about the concert. The article itself did not address much to the music quality and presentation of the concert by Cheer and her team. But rather, this whole article criticized and condemned Cheer & her 3500 audience as the title - 陈绮贞演唱会 集体式的“孤芳自赏”..
Many of my friends(including not Cheer supporters) were really mad after reading this article and one of them even wanted to tear the newspaper into pieces!!! This article already cause a big uproar @ facebook/online and we have many fans/normal audience and even media journalist from online music entertainment website(Freshmusic) condemning the unprofessional behaviour by this Mr Raven Wang from 聯合早報. At first I thought i should just lauged it off and ignore the report because I knew deep inside my heart that this reporter Mr Wang could well be the only person that is suitable for his own title "孤芳自賞". but nevertheless... I decided to feedback to 聯合早報 about how I felt and I do not expect them to reply or publish my feedback.. but really is 不吐不快!! I was really mad as I felt so humiliated and insulted. First time in my life I attended a concert that I enjoyed wholeheartedly only to be "condemned" and "insulted" like an idiot.
The original unedited version of the review is even more crude and you can read it here

A block entry by someone - I like the way he describe how he felt "为什么我们辛辛苦苦赚钱，很高兴地买了自己喜欢的歌手的演唱会门票，再很兴奋地赶赴演唱会盛宴，最后却被骂为“集体式的孤芳自赏”，并且多次在文中被抨 击？笔者诠释为赶赴现场的3500位观众都被该记者隐喻为一群孤单而孤芳自赏的同类，赶赴了一场让该记者不屑一顾可是却因为工作无法不出席的九流演唱会， 而我们还如此莫名其妙的兴奋实在是幼稚且没有素质的。"

RE: 陈绮贞演唱会 集体式“孤芳自赏”

我一直以來都覺得新加坡的媒體修養以及素質是非常良好的.. 但是在看了以上的新聞 報導後感到非常震驚以及有一種被侮辱的感覺! 身為當天在場的觀眾以及陳綺貞的支持者.. 我必須把對當晚的感受說出來… 也許以綺貞的支持者角度來說, 我的發言或許會傾向主觀.. 但是當晚的情況完全不是貴報的記者在報導中用所謂的”集體式孤芳自賞”來描述的. 稍微對陳綺貞的音樂有認識的都會知道綺貞在現場表演一貫的風格以及感染力.. 投入,瘋狂以及忘我的境界是她的特質…當天會買票去欣賞的絕大多數是非 常了解以及欣賞綺貞音樂的知音.. 以一個獨立創作歌手來說, 能夠在沒有太多媒體宣傳的情況下以及還是在沒有專輯宣傳期辦演唱會是需要很多勇氣以及實力的.. 我覺得貴報的報導完全抹殺了歌手以及其團隊在音樂以及演唱會上所付出的努力以及心血…
[夏季練習曲]的呈現方式本來就是分為三個階段來呈現的 – 初夏的神秘, 盛夏的熱情以及夏末的微微感傷.. 這些應該不難在網路上找到吧? 難道媒體到場前沒有先做功課嗎? 整場演唱會從開場的安靜忘我投入, 中場的瘋狂失控以及完場非常溫馨的大合唱安可.. 都非常符合演唱會的概念啊! 而且在場的觀眾也非常的投入(不然貴報記者怎麼可能”偷拍”到情侶親熱的照片).. 我相信綺貞的支持者都已經非常習慣她”閉目自我投入”以及”面無表情”的演唱方式… 這也是她一貫的風格啊.. 我倒是覺得是貴報記者本身對歌手沒有一定的了解才會說她是”心情不佳, 在趕場”… 我相信在場的觀眾也能感受到她的投入.. 到了中場的瘋狂失控這本來就是人之長情… 一直以來我都覺得在新加坡看演唱會是非常的壓抑的… 有稍微動感搖滾的歌曲想投入其中大多時後都會被保安人員制止… 往往會形成”動感搖滾”表演的”冷場”… 綺貞的魅力真的是無法忽視..
能夠在沒有特別來賓或很多華麗的舞台支援下一個人唱足三個小時, 這對體力以及能力上也算是相當大的考驗… 記者完全忽視了歌手以及其團隊在這方面的貢獻… 這也許不是我看過最棒的陳綺貞, 但是絕對是有水準以及非常用心的一次… 聯合早報真的該檢討記者的素質以及修養... 整篇報導簡只是在侮辱綺貞以及所有出席的觀眾.
