HCM Cỉty — Vietnamese American singer Lê Thị Ý Lan will celebrate her 60th birthday with a live music show entitled Thương Ai (Whom Are You Missing) at a tea house at District 3, HCM City this evening.
Lan said she will sing famous songs like Thương một người (Loving Someone), Nụ hôn dưới mưa (The Kiss Under the Rain), Sa mạc tình yêu (Desert of Love), Sao vẫn còn mưa rơi (Why It Is Still Raining?), Ánh trăng tàn (The Dying Moon) and Cỏ úa (The Withered Grass).
The singer will also perform songs which brought fame to her mother, singer Thái Thanh, including Kiếp nào có yêu nhau (If We Fall in Love in Some Other Life), Nửa hồn thương đau (Half of the Broken Soul) Nghìn trùng xa cách (A Thousand Miles Between Us).
Lan said she is always asked by her fans to sing these songs, “I feel really touched when the audience adores my mom’s voice. Being her daughter, everytime I cover her songs on the stage, I feel so blessed.”
Visibly moved, she said her mother may not have the chance to see a Vietnamese audience again. “Currently, my mother is undergoing treatment at a hospital in America. At the age of 83, her health is getting worse day by day. She can not travel by plane.”
Lan was born in 1958 in HCM City to a family of artists. In addition to her mother’s vocal talents, she is also influenced by her father, actor Lê Quỳnh. She became a professional singer towards the end of the 80’s. She lives in California and has performed many music shows in Việt Nam. VNS
