Reply to Susan Hi Susan: I think you are right, it is the 1990 concert. I agree with you, she looked so happy and innocent in her past performance, you can see she enjoyed singing so much. Actually even by listening to her early radio interviews, you will find she sounded so different from her later ones. Have you listened to her very early interview, the one between Hoi Kee and Ann Mui, while she talked to them via phone? She sounded so funny and cute, never stopped talking. But for later years, I think I would say she was more feminine, mature and diplomatic. Actually she is never out, though people liked to comment she was out. Besides her, I don??t really like to watch anybody else lar. Nowadays I never turn on my TV to Chinese Channel anymore. Also by looking at others laughing, I feel unhappy and uneasy because I feel that Mui should be the one getting all the honors and etc?K?K?K..but just have to accept the fact, she will never appear on stage in person anymore?K?K. No, no VCD for Mui Music Show ever be released. Wonder will ever be released, , they will say it is copyright problem. Hopeless. |

Anita's old record company is a pain in the neck... I think! consider faye wong old record company, then one producton house and now sony. i don't see any of them complain as least i don't hear from it. faye still releases concert dvds... it's ashamed that we dont get to see many of anita's concerts because of these issues |

Hi, Woodstock, My feeling is almost the same as you, I miss Mui Jei a lot, and I used to look at the star above the sky everynight, wondering what is mui jei doing. For me, one of the star above the sky belong to mui jei, and she will look after use. Nowadays, I also didn't turn on the TV (like the Jade Solid gold, charity shows etc...). |

Hi Woodstock, Yeah...I thought it came from the 1990 concert, did you watch that concert live in Hung Hom? If you did, then you're very lucky. I only view that concert on vcd recently. When her concert was held in 1990, I wasn't in HK at the time, so it was a missed opportunity to see it live...what a pity. I purchased this vcd on a website in Maylasia couple months ago, as I could not find a copy in HK. I'm not sure whether this is an official released, judging by the quality of the video, it looks like it was transfered from tape, the quality wasn't that great either. From the beginning, there's a part where she danced in her jeans and even climb over the barriers to shake hands with the audience, but the video only show it in flashes, not the whole performace, I really wanted to see that part of the concert 'cos she looked so relaxed and really enjoying herself. It's annoying that this vcd did not cover the complete show. Why are music companies & broadcasting companies have so much restrictions over who owns whats, if an artist from company a appeared in company b, then there would be constant dogfights over copyrights...these companies always think about their own profits and not the music lovers - what a shamble! I guessed it would be next year by the time they'll released Anita's last concert. As to her later singing style and performace, I totally agreed with u that she was more mature and feminine. I particularly like her 2 mandarin albums in the '90s, 'Female Flower' and 'Nothing to Say' album. I almost listen to those 2 cd everyday. Another cd that I found to be very creative was 'I'm so Happy' cantonese album, it's very different than the ones she done before - my opinions of course. Woodstock? I really really wanna watch the Mui Music Show, again I wasn't around when that was held ( I always missed the good shows - ****!) Has this concert ever shown on TV? I did hear the radio interview between Ann and Anita, your right, she was VERY direct and funny, Mui Jer was very talkative, correct me if I'm wrong, I thought I heard the DJ said it was a 2 hours show and Anita just called into the studio in the middle of Ann's interview and from then on they can't get her off the phone, she was on the phone for over an hour - wasn't she? From listening to that interview, I can tell Mui Jer and Ann was very very close. |

note: those stars in my message are not rude language, if anyone is wondering, but I'm puzzled why they transfered D A M N as stars..........Hmm??? |

Hi, 1990 concert is probably converted from the original LD. I was lucky to get hold of 4 of Anita's LDs after her death. I was never really one of her fans. Now, I has a collection of almost all her CDs for Cantonese songs, almost all of her official released movies in VCD/DVD, 4 LDs and her 2002 concert in DVD (this one I bought before her death). Woodstock, I've download her interviews that I could get hold of a few months ago. I never listen to some of them, but the one interview with Hoi Kei and Ann Mui has been my favorite. I've listened to it many times and she sounded so happy at the time. |

Woodstock IP: 218.102.177.201 Apr 30th, 2004 - 5:00 PM |
Hi PL: We won??t miss anything if we don??t turn on the TV, as standard really getting too low. Even Do Do (Carol Cheng), when was asked by student reporters recently about how she looks at the entertainment industry, she said not optimistic, unless the audience themselves can improve their own standard. Anita Mui is for audience who love good songs, and appreciate professional performance. Susan: No I didn??t watch 1990 concert live in Hung Hom. Though I returned to HK in late 1989, I was too busy with my work, and I didn??t even know Anita got concert in 1990., also I wasn??t that crazy yet. Remember I mentioned only when you really saw her once, then got addicted. Her Farewell Concert was the first concert I went. Then I got hooked. I bought the tape of the 1990 concert in Sino a few years ago. Bought her early concerts and some TV appearances there. Not good quality, but better than none lar! The part of her in jeans running around and climbed over to shake hands with audience should last about 2 minutes. Yep, she sort of ??let herself go?? and immersed completely in the fun. Her fans even rushed onto stage to kiss her. HK entertainment companies only think of money, never really think about ARTS, though all gave Mui compliments after her demise, none really tries hard to release her last concert DVD on time. Only lip services. Always regret that she never has someone close to her to help her with their heart, not like Gor Gor, he is so lucky to Florence Chan, Tong Tong and Gor Gor??s siblings. Guess shouldn??t compare and complaint, but fact is fact. Actually her ??Moonlight before the bed?? is a very good album too. All songs in that album are beautiful. You are right ??I??m so happy?? is a very different album, In ??Larger than life??, she already injected her change in a few songs, then the whole new style of singing in ??I??m happy??. She demonstrated her skill in singing all types of songs, she is not only good in slow sad songs as stereotyped by others, and she proved to them she was not out. About that interview, you are right she is talkative, she didn??t want to get off the phone. She teased and laughed at Ann, but Ann only laughed and never talked back. At that time Mui was very straight- forward. Have you ever seen one of her very early interview on TV, she was interviewed by Philip Chan and Francis Yip. It was a very interesting one too. She talked without reserve. Actually the three were sharing their experience when they performed in the night clubs, but main focus was on Mui. She was very ??green?? at that time. BTW, as she always teased herself, fortunately when she first came out she looked old, so even she had been around for 20 years, she didn??t look too old. Very true, she even looked younger in a way in her last years during her life. Agree? Don??t worry, this is computer, it can??t even accept the word H U I?K.hahaha KC: Wow, how did you manage to get all the LDs and all her CDs, VCDs/DVDs in such a short period of time? Must cost you a fortune. I??m quite complete in the collection of albums and movies through years of effort, but only have one LD that is the 1991 concert tour that other fans are just talking about under the other thread. I didn??t have time to listen to all her past interviews yet, but already listened to her interview with Hoi Kee and Ann 3 times. Agree, she sounded so happy. |

jack IP: 64.178.98.10 Apr 30th, 2004 - 5:35 PM |
woodstock, you mean you actually have part of the 1991 concert??? tell us about it... |
|
Woodstock IP: 219.76.64.2 Apr 30th, 2004 - 6:34 PM |
Jack: No, it is not the concert at all. The LD is called "The Legend of Pop Queen Part III", but the title in Chinese is Farewell to Stage, World Tour Concert". Released in 1992. But the MTV is my Mui herself, recording of her at back stage, at rehearsal, during travelling playing with dancers and etc. (details please refer to the thread Concert 91 posted by xixo, and message left by Snoopy). Apparently there is a VCD on sale in Malaysia, so if you can get hold of a copy of that, though quality is bad as Snoopy mentioned, you can see the playful side of Mui off the stage, worth it! Susan: Forgot to reply your question on Mui Music Show. It was never shown in whole on TV, but the part when Mui performed Medley, maybe about10 minutes, was shown by Cable TV together with cuts from Fantasy Gig and the backstage interviews of Mui with other singers when they released the album "With". Mui Music Show was co-organized by Commercial Radio and Universal, and all the guest singers are from Universal. So I think CA again asked too much for the copyrights, so that Universal can't afford to release this Show again. Universal can't balance the budget lar, sales volume not big enough ma. |

Woodstock, The movies had not been marked up. I bought them from local stores in HK, web site. I've spent quite a bit in the CDs. I was happy to get the 'Bad Girl' and all her hits CDs. "I'm so happy" was difficult to find. BTW, except for 1 CD that I already owned, all the others are from auction sites. The 4 LDs are from a buyer I came across in an auction site. The 4 LDs are of a reasonable price in my opinion as LD were expensive. I'm happy that I can read her last book in this web site 'cause I didn't want to pay double or triple to get in for the website. There's a by-product from shopping my 'Anita's collection, I've also started a 'small' collection of other artists, concerts both local, Western and Japanese. I need to stop buying as I'm running out of storage space and spending quite a bit lately. haha...cheers..thanks for this website that I've learnt a lot more about Anita Mui though I've never been one of her fans. But, she's truly special in a lot of ways. |

Woodstock IP: 218.103.204.191 May 2nd, 2004 - 5:08 PM |
KC: I see, you are developing a very expensive hobby. BTW, if you are still interested in buying the book "Heart of Modern Woman", you can order through Mingpao at regular price plus postage. Please refer to the thread left by Yogi for detail. |

Susan IP: 218.102.88.19 May 3rd, 2004 - 8:34 AM |
Hi Woodstock, I wish I saw that farewell concert. I only read about the concert in magazine articles back in 1992 while I was in England at the time. I did not know she was retiring until I saw her 'Legend Pop Queen CDs' in a music store in Chinatown, and disbelieved what I saw - She's really retiring?? No, it can't be?! You might ask why my memories of this is so clear? This is because Gor Gor retired in 1989 and Ah Mui in 1992. It was a big shock at the time. Come to think of it, I didn't see any of Anita's live concerts until 1995. I bought most of the early albums in England. Back in those days, there were only cassettes, but after a while they wore out easy. Then I bought CDs. Can't recall how much I spent but I do remember they were quiet expensive because they were imported from overseas. Most were double the original price in HK. But I have no regrets splashing out on their collections. Every penny is worth it. No...I didn't catch her early interview on TV with Philip Chan and Francis Yip. Can you share some insights on that when you're not so busy? As to Mui Music Show, I saw the cable tv clips in another website last week. Quality not that great, but it's better than none. Just hope it will get the release one day. I heard the Mui Ma interview last night. I can tell she loves Mui but some of her comments are very unfair, I won't go into that, family matters are not my business...........so no more comments from me. |

Angel IP: 81.164.248.1 May 3rd, 2004 - 4:20 PM |
Dear Susan, I really can understand the feeling about what you said about the retirement from Leslie and Mui Jei. I also couldn't believe it and when I saw the final concert from Leslie on video, I was crying in't front of the TV and asking him, why he didn't wait for me. I was still studying, I can not go back HK for any concerts. |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.206.252 May 3rd, 2004 - 6:08 PM |
Actually most of us experienced some difficult period in collecting all Mui's CDs or VCDs/DVDs. So all these things I regard as my most valuable belongings, I'm 100% sure this collection will be one of very few things I won't part with till the day I die. Bet many of you out there will do the same as me. Susan: I will let you know the interwiew when I re-watch the whole interview again, when I have more time. Angel: Did you manage to see the Fantasy Gig Concert when Mui was in Singapre? |
|
Angel IP: 81.164.248.1 May 3rd, 2004 - 6:26 PM |
Woodstock, I'm totally agree with you, I told my friend already, they need to burn to me if I die. Maybe I made you misunderstand, I'm not from Singapore, but this concert was so fantastic in HK especially with Leslie at the last night ! Actually when I heard that Mui Jei cancelled her concert in New York last October, I was starting to worry, I can not explain, I couldn't control my mind. |
|
Susan IP: 219.77.48.183 May 4th, 2004 - 6:34 AM |
Totally agreed. I will definately request burning those collections to me in my will if I goes to heaven early than my other family members - ha..ha.. Woodstock: Thanks in advance for doing that for me, just take your time. Angel: Are u still a student studing in New York? |
|
KC IP: 219.78.211.92 May 4th, 2004 - 10:18 AM |
To Woodstock, You're right. This is a very expensive hobby. I feel I've spent more than enough already. I guess since the sadness from last Dec. and my personal stress at work that this had been a way for me to release and feel better thru' buying and owning the 'collections'. I've 'calmed down' this habit this week. It's time for me to be more productive. Cheers. |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.204.190 May 4th, 2004 - 4:53 PM |
Angel: Sorry. I don't know why I always thought you are from Singapore. Actually by your IP, I should know I'm wrong. Hey, why you girls want to burn your collection? You think you can get them ? I don't believe that. So I always think I will put in my will and leave them to someone who loves Anita Mui too. |
|
dana IP: 161.142.200.98 May 4th, 2004 - 7:26 PM |
Think of me first before you passed it around, Woodstock/should I go first, Ill let all of you have mine but please dont burn them. I rather have them passed down from generation to generation so that the legacy of Anita Mui will not be lost altogether. |

xixo88 IP: 202.169.43.6 May 4th, 2004 - 11:37 PM |
Hi Susan, Can you tell me which website you saw the TV clip of Mui Music Show? Thanks a lot. |
|
Angel IP: 81.164.248.1 May 5th, 2004 - 2:27 AM |
Woodstock, I have think about that too for passing my things from Mui Jei to someone that really loves Mui Jei, but because true fans, are not around me at this moment, maybe I will give you a sign if I'm going, but I think you should have my Mui Jei stuff already, Dana, your idea is also good, I will think about it if I have children. Dear Susan, I'm not studying anymore, I was just in New York. |

Touchwood! Touchwood! Touchwood! If you all want to make a will now, do give me all your money Good people will live life to the fullest (short or long) & you all are good people. Let the fate decide when we shall leave this world. Every minute counts, and every minute should be spent in doing good thing as much as possible. I learn a lot of good things from you all. You all are my inspiration. I |

Angel IP: 81.164.248.1 May 5th, 2004 - 8:01 AM |
Dear Jason, forgive me to tell you this, actually this is an open forum not for personal messages, but I still want to tell you, I'm never been afraid to face to death or talking for what to do with all my stuff, because when I was 18, the doctor told me already, I have a shorter life than other people, don't think I'm sad about it, because what Mui Jei always said, it's so possitive that you will forget all the sadness. Mui Jei's words are so wonderful, so powerful, that I will never forget. |

Hi Xixo88 & whoever wanna see the Mui Music Clips: Follow this link, but you need to register first - http://www.wapnwireless.com/ Woodstock: As to burning my collections, it's just a silly thoughts, of course I don't want to sell salted eggs yet - ya know what I mean? ha... But how would you know if you past the collections to the ones you love, they would treasure it?? |
|
Susan IP: 218.102.146.22 May 5th, 2004 - 9:31 AM |
Have to thanks 小雲 from 'http://www.wapnwireless.com/' for sharing that Mui Music Clips if he/she is reading this post. A Big thanks from me. |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.204.247 May 10th, 2004 - 4:35 AM |
Susan: Don't past your Mui collection to the one you love, as you say they might not treasure it. You must pass to someone who loves Mui too. So think about me, okay? The interview I talked about earlier, I'm posting a brief description here now: The interview was hosted by Philip Chan and Francis Yip. I don’t know the year this interview took place, but not long after Mui won the New Singers Contest, you know her hair style, the way she talked and dressed can tell. She talked about her early days when she started to perform with her C-fu, she was not paid for anything. She didn’t know the meaning of those songs, or those Chinese local songs, so she just followed the expression of the adults. Then she mentioned her sister matured earlier than anybody else, while she later than anybody else. But they two always had to sing as a pair, her sister as female, she as male. Her sister was taller than her by 3 heads. So what sisters group? should be mother-daughter group. Also her voice was very loud, the audience normally looked up the stage to look for her, but normally could not find her, as she was so small behind the speaker. She mentioned in the 1970s, the mainstream is Taiwan singers, so HK singers were only as secondary. Often when the Taiwan singers sang the songs they originally prepared for the night, they had to shift to another song immediately. Normally not easy, as other songs might not be the right key for them and etc. For this she often argued with the managers of the “song parlours”, as she was hot tempered, and she had to Both Francis and Philip started singing when they were quite young too and they had experience of performing in South East Asia such as Malaysia and Singapore. So they shared some funny experience. Philip said once when he was performing in Singapore, the band was so lousy, never on key for any single time, for his 28 shows (2 shows for 14 days). Francis said when she was in Malaysia singing, the guy played the trumpet always started first before the other instruments were played. On the 3rd day, she couldn’t help but asking him why he could not wait for others to start at the same time. He said because he was didn’t have enough breath Then Mui said one day when she was in Malaysia performing. The MC had a day off, so the leader of the band acted as MC. After he had “Ladies and Gentleman”, the sport light flashed on the stage trying to focus on him, but could not find him. At that time, the audience ate and drank at the same time. Singers were never respected. Mui said her schoolmates treated her as weird creature. But she thought they were weird too as they were so ignorant. Before the age of 10, she never felt her life was difficult. But after 10, she felt the pressure, because she had to go to school during the day and returned home from singing very late around 2:00a.m. to 3:00a.m. Mui was asked if she had ever made a wish that she would make herself a famous singer. She said not really. Only when she saw some super stars on TV, then she would say to herself she wished to be as famous as So and So. The other time she would tell herself that she must be a famous singer was after she got scolded by her mother. “Sing for so many years, still no improvement Anyhow, Mui said she always told herself, as long as she tried her best, she would not care too much about the end result. |

Hi Woodstock, Regarding my collection, I'll take that into consideration but you may have to wait a very long time if I do past it on to you....ha..ha...Beside, you probably have much the same collection that I have already. So, I don't think it's worth waiting la... Since we're in the subject of collection, I've recently (last night - to be exact) placed order to a Anita Mui's Fantasy Gig Doll from another website, did you order one? Hey, thanks for taking your time to translate that interview for me. I especially enjoy reading the part when the temporary MC fell off some dry ice, no disrespect to him BUT it was funny. Was that a TVB interview? |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.253.211 May 17th, 2004 - 8:40 AM |
Susan: I was just joking, because I'm quite sure I will leave before you. Yep, it was a TVB interview. When Mui talked about it, it was more funny. 3 of them just laughed like crazy. Nope, I didn't order the doll. I'm too old for that. |

woodstick IP: 219.95.11.238 May 20th, 2004 - 3:32 PM |

|
Susan IP: 218.102.88.102 May 26th, 2004 - 8:35 AM |
Don't be silly, you'll never too old for anything. Beside, I don't consider being in my 30s is old, if ones think like that, then your prospect of life is very negative. Anyway, will look forward receiving my mui's figure in 2 weeks time, it'll certainly will look nice together with all my other collections. |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.198.207 May 26th, 2004 - 8:59 AM |
Susan: I was just joking, age is actually a status of mind, also Mui told us to use "mature" instead of the word "old" |

HELP ! URGENT REPLY PLS - Mui
Jie's VCD is selling like HK158 for 1 VCD & 2 CDs Woodstock & All who has already bought the VCD set Have ask a friend in Hongkong to get the VCD set for me and was told that it now cost HK158.00 for 1 VCD & 2 CDS,with no poster,can buy them separately though. Woodstock, pls tell me where to get the whole set at a cheaper price, i thought it has 2 VCDs but now was told only one, is this right? is the 2 CDs exactly the same as the CDs that was released earlier. Worst scenario, i will just buy the VCD at HK100.00. PLs reply |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.204.119 May 26th, 2004 - 7:09 PM |
Mossimo: The concert is definitely of 2 VCDs. It comes in a set of 2 VCDs and 2 CDs, in one package. 2 CDs are exacly the same as the one we bought previous. About the price, it is seafood price. I have heard everywhere in Mongkok or other places have raised the price, somewhere even up to HK$168.00. My audio shop won't raise price for me, but already out of stock a few days ago, also don't know when will be delivery of re-order. So far HMV is still selling at HK$125.00, I'm not sure if it included poster. But you can ask you friend to check on that before going. Also will check for you at a shop in Causeway Bay to see if still selling at HK$108.00 as I'm going there this afternoon. And will you let you know tonight. |

Mossimo IP: 203.120.44.202 May 26th, 2004 - 7:39 PM |
Hi Woodstock Thank you for your fast reply & help, Really appreciate it, will wait for your reply. Thanks again ! |

Jo Ee IP: 218.186.226.242 May 26th, 2004 - 7:48 PM |
Hi but I think the 2nd release will not have the 2 CDs rite? sigh... din manage to get it as it hasn't reached my country yet... thanks Jo |

june IP: 61.10.7.150 May 26th, 2004 - 11:27 PM |
Hi Mossimo! I bought mine at HMV, it included the poster already...in fact I had it laminated already and is hanging in my room!!! |
|
Mossimo IP: 203.120.44.202 May 27th, 2004 - 1:28 AM |
Hi June Is the poster that of Anita in her wedding gown? I'll probably have my friend get them in HMV. Thanks for replying |
|
june IP: 203.168.166.150 May 27th, 2004 - 2:52 AM |
Hi again to you Mossimo, yes you're right, the poster is the same as the VCD cover....you're welcome....and have a good day!!! |
|
Woodstock IP: 218.103.196.88 May 27th, 2004 - 3:01 AM |
Mossimo: I think it is best for you to ask your friend to buy at HMV, it became the cheapest now, because all small audio shops raised the price, one to HK$138, one even to $189 at Causeway Bay, and most of the shops are out of stock. June: does HK$125.00 at HMV includes 2 posters or 1 only? |
|
june IP: 61.10.7.150 May 27th, 2004 - 3:31 AM |
Hi Woodstock...only 1 poster for the price of HK$125.00 |
|
Mossimo IP: 203.120.44.202 May 27th, 2004 - 6:05 AM |
Hi Woodstock & June Thank for checking,Woodstock, have informed my friend to help me buy from HMV. It's amazing that HMV is now the cheapest, it's normally selling things more expensive than normal shops unless they have this Big Offer Sales. Understand that the VCD originally comes with 2 CDs & 1 poster, what is the other poster? Anyhow,just grab whatever that is available now. Thanks again, Woodstock & June |
|
Susan IP: 218.103.177.219 May 27th, 2004 - 7:53 AM |

Mossimo: There are 2 styles of posters, just as the front cover and back cover of the VCD package. Only HMV keeps the original prices, that is why it becomes the cheaperst now |

Anita's Fan Base There's a question on my mind after reading ML's comment tht Anita's fan base in M'sia is estimated to be less than 5,000. I feel tht it's too few. I'm not sure, many M'sian artists r fans (eg Summer Grace sisters, Winnie Kwok & Fennie something e magazine chief editor). Most uncles aunties & e above 30 age group like her too. On e other hand, judging by concert ticket sales, there r not many as Anita performed in Genting Arena of Stars instead of e stadium, wht do u think? (Sorry I'm just curious & trying to justify Anita's status) |

FROM MY EXPERIENCE-ANITA FANS encompasses all ages but most of which are in the matured age adults-above 30s-and some of them do not take an active role in joining fan clubs n take part in the activities etc some fans chose to support their idol by just listening to their songs--my friends in overseas used to tell me anita songs accompany most of their long driving journey or cold winter nights when they miss home. 5000 is just an estimated number and i am sure-in real-there would be more fans around the world that trully adore our idol! |
|
ML IP: 219.95.149.127 Apr 25th, 2004 - 10:47 PM |
Leelee, knowing you will be curious why I said so. When I said fans of Anita are those fans who do not hesitate to call themselves pure fans of Anita who loves Anita the most or the only artist they love. These fans must be able to stand up to do something good for Anita. Before Anita's demise, I myself only liked Anita's song but not really love her in person. Until her departure, I can say now she is the only artist I love and I will not hesitate to stand up for her. I've read many articles and news (Chinese, English) and have seen list of registered fans and unregistered fans. The number is very disappointing and the gap is too huge in comparison between Anita and Leslie. If you have noticed for the past few weeks, almost all the news remembering them together focused on Leslie and if you have visited many of the message websites for both of them together, you will find fans leaving messages for Leslie almost 95% more than Anita. Anita has huge listeners but not huge fans. We need huge fans to prepare a list of remembrance activities on her coming 10/10 and 30/12. We also need huge fans to affixed their signatures on our requests to the respective authorities for various demands for the benefit of Anita. You may want to visit this site http://www.anita-mui.com/sign/index.html Anyway, this is based on my own assumption and estimation. You may correct me. |

Thanks for ur replies ML & Woodstick. I noticed Leslie's popularity surpassing Anita's in hkpv too but on e other hand, Anita's passing made 10 most notable & most of my relatives r much more grieve strickenned by Anita's. I don't know, maybe Anita's songs & images hv less universal appeal... |

jackie summer IP: 220.255.30.202 Apr 26th, 2004 - 3:44 AM |
well..i think we dont have to express our love to her so publicly..i mean we dont have to tell the whole world exactly how much we love her..as long as we knows,that will do...no one expects us will know exactly how we will feel...and...actually,most of anita fans have been supportting her for almost 20 years,as u can see...they are quite matured... |

Susan IP: 203.218.6.151 May 2nd, 2004 - 5:59 PM |
Leelee, I'm a Mui Jer fan for 20 years but and never need to join any fan clubs to prove her popularity. Joining fan clubs in a matter of choice, it does not represent the bigger majority there are in a club reflects the higher status of an artiste. |
|
ILA IP: 165.21.162.196 May 2nd, 2004 - 7:17 PM |
I agree that Leslie's fans are more active and have surpassed Mui in publicity. I am also feeling rather fustrated.What has happened to her fans??? I'm not Mui Jer's fan but I love this person for her chivalry and personality besides sharing similar bad life struggles and experiences except her success. I understand how Mui has searched for true love but never found! But her fans love made up for the loss. So if you all are her loved ones,I have a thought - Can we unite to do something meaningful to commemorate her 1st death anniversary like running some charity drive to demonstrate our love and support for her aims in life - LOVE AND SHARE ?? Life is so short...so if we keep low and keep our love for her inside us...we'll die with it and that love can't so anything for anyone or society... We are expressing good feelings not bad ones so no harm will be done. I'm a Singaporean that missed her funeral because I changed jobs and have been feeling that miss very painful to my heart. Therefore, I have been thinking if possible, do something meaningful to Mui on 30/12/04, like gathering her fans together (if possible) and tie up with a charity organisation that allows us to set up a flags day and raise some funds. Mui should be happy that her fan club is contributing to society. I can volunteer my efforts if there is support. However, when I spoke to one of her fans, she told me that her fans may not be so active and warm hearted to participate. That made me feel very upset and sad. Actually to do something for Anita, the number of fans helping do not matter because small numbers do small things...big ones will do bigger... whatever, Anita will be proud even no media coverageand blessed by our efforts. That is something money cannot make or buy us that love for her. Right?? I empathize with Mui and hope to contribute my efforts to continue her legacy. So if you don't mind, I hope to join you guys in your plans and activities. Anyone any suggestions for me?? All I can do alone is continue to offer prayers to "chew doh" Ah Mui wherever she is. And if no one helps me...then all I can do is to sign up with some reputable Buddhist temple and offer her rituals and prayers. She still need our blessings and well wishes because of her hard life, we should not take chances that she has accumulated enough merits of her own to heaven. Pls give me some ideas. Thanks. |

Dear ILA, I feel very touching after reading your words, because even you are not a Mui Jei fan, you want to stand up and do something for Mui Jei. It's true what you said, small group can do small things. At this moment I don't have any idea, but I will try my best for thinking about it, you can count on me because I will be in HK. |

Audrey IP: 210.24.254.198 May 3rd, 2004 - 3:03 AM |
Hi ILA, I am also from Singapore so please count me in in whatever you are planning. I am planning to be in Hong Kong end Dec 04. |

YC IP: 203.117.128.233 May 4th, 2004 - 2:18 AM |
Dear ILA, I'm so happy to see that there's someone around in Singapore like u ! I'm also a Singaporean but I can never talk to my friends about Anita and how I feel about her cos I know they will never undestand. I would love to do something on my part for Anita too so here I am offering you my services if u need help in any of your plans! |

june IP: 203.168.166.150 May 4th, 2004 - 9:28 AM |
ILA hello and good day to you!!!!!! I understand how you feel, cause like you I also have this desire to do something for her and hopefully we could all join our efforts and come up with some action during Anita's first year death anniversary, so please count me in too for whatever you have in mind...or anybody's mind for that.... ML hi! Thank you for sharing the site of the signature campaign for Anita.....I just signed up!

ILA IP: 203.118.40.10 May 5th, 2004 - 2:34 AM |
Hello to Angel, Audrey, June and YC, Thank you for your support. I am so joyful to read your responses. It is good to know we have good Anita supporters in Spore and than I can go about my plans which will need the next few months to work out but I am unsure of the results tho'. I need to put up a few letters to charitable organisations and work out if it is possible for us to work with them, maybe name it as Anita Mui's Fan Club Charity Run 2004??? Maybe by that time, there will be more of us or we can also open up to ask our friends if they are willing to help out to. Looks like this will be a small activity without any media coverage. So do you guys mind if you don't appear in the papers??? I am very excited of your help and I am very sure Anita is very proud of all of you! Let's keep in touch! It's okay to talk about Anita because she is your loved one, like our father or lover. So don't worry too much about others comments or thoughts if they think you are crazy...because you have the right to decide your feelings and love. Cheers |
|
Angel IP: 81.164.248.1 May 5th, 2004 - 5:46 AM |
Dear ILA, it's totally not my point for going on the papers, it's because I want to do something even it's only by myself, so I was thinking why not joining you. |

Jason IP: 219.95.202.182 May 5th, 2004 - 6:10 AM |
ILA, I must say you are an OUTSPOKEN person who can really do the magic in bringing together Singapore fans. We do need such a leader. My very insignificant point of view =================================== Both Leslie & Anita are best friends and both died young. Leslie has TongTong, his manager, his family & huge loyal fans to love and support him all the way whilst Anita has only fans (as for friends & family, I don't know, I can't tell) to love and support her. Being Anita's fans, we play much much more important role and WE ARE THE ONLY HOPE. We must help to strike a balance and not to give chances to others to think Anita is deserted or neglected by her fans and those who love her. My very insignificant suggestion ================================ Could we publish remembrance note for Anita at the obituary section of major newspapers in our own countries, simultaneously, on every 30/12? |
|
june IP: 203.168.166.150 May 5th, 2004 - 12:01 PM |
ILA hi and good day to you!!! I'm a camera shy person so it would do me good if there are no coverage or whatsoever........It's not our main intention anyway.....I'm already very excited of whatever you have in mind and imagine, we would all be seeing each other if that will happen....... Hey Jason it's always so nice to read something from you, you have so many things to write and to share to us.....and you are such a very creative person |
|
Angel IP: 81.164.252.233 May 5th, 2004 - 4:55 PM |
Dear June, thank you for reminding me for signing up ! Yes, your words made me again active ! |
|
Audrey IP: 210.24.254.198 May 5th, 2004 - 8:12 PM |
Hi ILA, you have my 101% support in whatever you are doing/planning and don't hestitate to ask for help if you need any from us, okay? It's only fair that all of us put in some efforts to make it happen. |
|
dana IP: 161.142.106.28 May 5th, 2004 - 8:25 PM |
Right, ILA. Eventhough I cant be there, Ill be happy to make some contributions too. |
|
YC IP: 203.117.128.64 May 5th, 2004 - 9:47 PM |
Dear ILA, I oso dun mind having no media coverage cos that's not the purpose of carrying out such activities in the 1st place. We juz wish to do something for Anita and carry on her charitable spirit, right? |
|
YC IP: 203.117.128.64 May 5th, 2004 - 9:49 PM |
Forgot to add, ILA, that if u need help in planning, I'll be glad to help. |
|
ILA IP: 203.118.40.10 May 5th, 2004 - 10:38 PM |
Hi Jason Thanks for the compliment. True, I am outspoken, someone who hopes to live each day fully without regrets because I am OLD ! Ha! Ha! In actual fact, I am just being "But Kuah"! You are very outspoken yourself and have made valid points that I agree. We can use your ideas alright. To everyone else: IMPORTANT !!! ================= My friend made an important and valid question to me last night - why do things for a dead person? She is not GOD that we need to do things for and people have to live on with their lives..what's wrong about forgetting Mui... So, I think it is important to make it very clear why we are doing anything. Maybe not FOR Anita but we are doing it as a group of friends...That group happened to be called Anita Mui's Fans...and if we do charity, it is because we want to practice being generous and kind and contribute a little to the needy. These values happened to be Anita's trademark! Not sure if you all agree, because suddenly I realised that using the wrong approach can damage Anita's reputation. If our intention and actions appear to be like "Worshipping" her, the result could be giving people a chance to critically condemn Anita that she has influenced us to Bad Practice or her fans are "Bud Ji Soh Wai" (crazy)... Sorry, I just want to be careful. |

ILA IP: 203.118.40.10 May 5th, 2004 - 10:56 PM |
Hey all, its good we are open and honest people without any hidden itinerary. Hip Hip Hurray to Anita for having such good fans !! |
|
Jason IP: 219.95.150.119 May 5th, 2004 - 11:05 PM |
True ILA. We are not worshipping Anita. We just continue with her spirits and contributions from where she stopped. |
|
Audrey IP: 210.24.254.198 May 5th, 2004 - 11:57 PM |
Yes, agree with Jason. |
|
Angel IP: 81.164.252.233 May 6th, 2004 - 1:48 AM |
Dear ILA, I want to say something about what your friend said : "My friend made an important and valid question to me last night - why do things for a dead person? She is not GOD that we need to do things for and people have to live on with their lives..what's wrong about forgetting Mui..." I think a lot of people that are not Mui Jei fan will think like that, what ever you do, how good you do, there are complains from others. I even heard from someone that was saying when fans were going to pay respect, "they are stupid", so there are always comment on everything.Yes, your friend is right, she is not a God, but more important, Mui Jei is a part of my memory in my life. It's not "don't want to forget", it's "can not forget", everything that I come in touch, has memory from Mui Jei and how can I forget someone that I love so much...and yes, my life must go on, and must be living more stronger because I love Mui Jei. |

Woodstock IP: 218.102.182.106 May 6th, 2004 - 6:17 AM |
Actually we don't have to worry what other people think about us if we believe what we will do is appropriate in momory of someone we love, and someone we don't want to forget as Angel said. Also, if Anita Mui is a God, I don't think I would be attracted to her at all by what she had done, because God supposed to be perfect. I adore her so much only because she is same as I am, a normal human being, but she is a much better person than I am. So if you (ILA) intend to organize a charity run on the anniversary day of her demise, nothing is wrong. Our charity work is inspired by Anita, and we want to commemorate her by doing something we don't do everyday. I don't think anyone will query us for doing charity. Jason: actually you are very resourceful. It is really good idea to publish remembrance note on 12/30 in all countries there is Anita Fans. I'm thinking of half a page, not at obituary section, it can be in black white, so less expensive. But in countries with less fans, might be too costly for them. Have to think about to see what's the best way. |
|
Audrey IP: 210.24.254.198 May 6th, 2004 - 6:51 AM |
It will be nice if all the countries can have the same remembrance note - only in different size (depending on the number of fans in that country) and mentioning the fans from that country (example, From all Anita Mui's fans in Singapore, etc) |
