Oldie, but a goodie. This video was recorded literally many moons ago when I was still in high school ? It sure brings back a lot of memories from my musical theatre days. Lately, as I've been missing the stage, I came across this old gem. This was my first big solo and I am very grateful the teacher, Mr. Corrigan, trusted me to open the school show with this song ?? It wasn't perfect and the video's quality isn't the best, but maybe you can get a feel of how it was back then and perhaps in the near future, you can head to a live performance in a location near you ?
喺好耐好耐好耐以前，我曾經有機會唱一齣音樂劇嘅opening solo。呢次嘅experience，俾我感受到live performance同埋舞台嘅威力，真係非常之難忘。希望喺不久嘅將來，我可以再喺台上面唱歌跳舞 ???????

Many moons ago in a far-off place
Lived a handsome prince with a gloomy face
For he did not have a bride.
Oh, he sighed "Alas" And he pined, Alas,
But, alas, the prince couldn't find a lass
Who would suit his mother's pride.
For a princess is a delicate thing,
delicate and dainty as a dragonfly's wing.
You can recognize a lady by her elegant air
but a genuine princess is exceedingly rare.
On stormy night to the castle door
came the lass the prince had been waiting for:
"I'm a princess lost, " quoth she.
But the queen was cool and remained aloof and she said,
"Perhaps, but we'll need proof;
I'll prepare a test and see."
"I will test her thus, "
the old queen said,
"I'll put twenty downy mattresses upon her bed,
And beneath those twenty mattresses I'll place one tiny pea.
If that pea disturbs her slumber
Then a true princess is she!"
Now, the bed was soft, and extremely tall
But the dainty lass didn't sleep at all,
and she told them so next day.
Said the queen, "My dear, if you felt that pea
then we've proof enough of your royalty.
Let the wedding music play!"
and the people shouted quietly
"Hooray!"
For a princess is a delicate thing,
delicate and dainty as a dragonfly's wing.
You can recognize a lady by her elegant air,
but a genuine princess is exceedingly rare!
