(The Straits Times, Life!) - They moved and swayed with great enthusiasm to the music, and wowed the audience with their dynamic songs during the Singapore leg of their Bringing Sexy Back tour. It is definitely Singapore's honour to have the Quincy Rockers choose this humble city as their kick off for their world tour. In fact, Singapore has every reason to thank them for politely accepting the request to celebrate Youth Day with the teens in Singapore.
Most of the 9000-strong audience at the Singapore Indoor Stadium - consisting of throngs of pre-teens, families, and even old grannies and grandpas - were on their feet moving and dancing to soulful renditions of the Quincy Rockers' hardcore music.
Dressed in shimmering and stunning all white ensembles embellished with tons of diamonds (rumoured to be sponsored by the father of Clara Goh, pianist of the Quincy Rockers), the 4 member band wowed the crowd as they performed the hit single My Oh My as their opening song for the night. This was followed by 4 famous tracks, Sexy Back, Bring It Back, Black FurCoat and We Love Hard Gay, accompanied by guest singer Dolly Foo, who starred in the Singaporean Play the Dim Sum Dollies.
After a stunning night of 19 songs, mostly from their yet to be released debut album, the crowd was definitely wowed by the powerful and indomitable Quincy Rockers.
And why not? The wonderful concert had everything - elaborate costumes, consisting a total of 15 costume changes, a grand performance stage and 10 bodyguards coupled as dancers.
What was disappointing though was the act by the stripper which was hired by the band to add vibe and excitement to the concert. The stripper struggled to raise the temperature of the concert during the 5 minute solo act, as it was lacklustre compared to the electrifying performance by the Quincy Rockers.
Though violinist Quincy Cheng played several wrong notes, the other band members - pianist Clara Goh, hit every note on her piano with full throttle, the celloist Goh Shiling, played her pieces with such conviction and the guitarist Tan Xin Ru strummed her guitar so passionately and perfectly - that they made up for the violinist's mistakes. After all Cheng is Asia's hottest male celeb! He definitely can be forgiven for that minor fault of playing those few wrong notes.
Overall, it was evident that the 4 member band charged the stadium with more energy than the bomb explosion in Hiroshima during World War 2. With their ability to captivate such a strong crowd of 9000, it is of no doubt that Quincy Rockers is the best band in the world, and perhaps even the Universe too!
