very interesting concept whereby the contestants were shown bidding themselves
over the item which was the Golden
Melody Trophy.
Prior to the
beginning of the rounds, there was a golden melody medley performed by all of
the contestants alongside with the past contestants and winners. The medley consists
of notable songs like I Have A Dream, 卡门,说不出的快活,人生就是戏,欢乐今宵,Mamma Mia, Thank You For The Music and 我的未来不是梦.
It was a wonderful
kickoff for the show!
During the first
round, Zhao Dong Ming from China has demonstrated his unique vocal
and wide range of voice control via his performance of “在那遥远的地方”. He was an obvious lead during the first round.
However, the tide has turned over during the second round as Lim Yong Huat and Yap Yoon Cheong soared with their performance respectively. Lim Yong Huat’s energetic performance
of “对你爱不完+我爱你” was indeed remarkable.
Special Performance Before Final Round:
Final round was a tight match between the top three finalists Zhang Dong Ming, Lim Yong Huat and Yap Yoon Cheong. Ultimately, Lim Yong Huat triumphed as the champion
of the competition! Yap Yoon Cheong came close as 1st runner-up
while Zhang Dong Ming was the second runner-up.
On the other hand, another male contestant, Liew Kuoh Yit has been awarded Mah
Sing 人气奖.
Sally Yeh Took The Audiences to Another Level Of Hype!
One of the highlight of the night was the presence of HK Veteran singer,
Sally Yeh葉蒨文 as the special guest judge
panelist. Apart from providing constructive comments to the contestants, she
has also performed two of her iconic songs on stage including “潇洒走一回”and “完全为你”. Her performance was very impressive!

Mindy Quah柯以敏,郑国亮, 邓智彰 and 童欣.
