Upon this tidal wave of young blood

At almost 60 years old, Sakura is still every bit a wonderful performer, her voice coarse but strong, and she can definitely dance the pants of anyone.

Onstage she was brilliant, sending the audience into laughing fits with her whacky chatter, peppered with lots of swear words Singapore-styled. Just as how culturally diverse Singapore in the 60s and 70s was, she sang in a few languages other than Mandarin, like Berhasa Indonesia, English, Spanish and Cantonese.

Know that Chee Chee Pom Pom song? She performed that! I always liked that song. She also did Elvis' "It's Now Or Never".

The setup of the concert felt very nostalgic, like it came right out of the 70s, with the getai-sounding band, except that Sakura doesn't look the same anymore. But of course, her charisma remains, and i'm sure she gave the audience, most of them in their 50s and 60s, plenty to reminisce about.
