John Legend Live in Manila

One of the reasons why I really wanted to go home is to watch John Legend's concert. Unfortunately, this great artist doesn't have a performance in Singapore. I was supposed to go on vacation on the 28th of March but since the concert was in the 26th, I chose March 25 as my return date here in Manila. I was accompanied by my Nene and we went to Araneta Coliseum an hour earlier as I was really excited about his live performance.

I am a big fan of John Legend since he released his single "Ordinary People" that gave him an award for Grammy Best New Artist. Me and Nene enjoyed listening to his music and live rendition of his great songs. Fortunately, since I'm a big fan, I was able to name all the songs he performed and I was able to sing with him dahil kabisado ko ang mga kanta... hahaha... The songs were: When I Used To Love You, Satisfaction, It's Over, Alright, Heaven, Stereo, Quickly, Let's Get Lifted, Where Did My Baby Go, Good Morning, No Other Love, Slow Dance (he picked a girl from the audience and dance with her), PDA, Stay With You, Number One, save Room, Change, Everybody Knows (my favorite), This Time, So High, Greenlight and Ordinary People as his finale.

It was an excellent performance!!! Everyone was dancing to his groovy tunes and was in the "senti" mode during the love songs. Nene became an instant fan (he knows John Legend but not really a fan). The concert lasted I think almost two hours and I was really fulfilled watching his peformance, Galing grabe!!!
