Le Quyen was praised for her singing voice when she remade the hit "Why are you sad, my dear" by singer Hoai Lam. The singer was pleased with her eyes in the MV when her boyfriend Lam Bao Chau guided her acting.
Le Quyen remaking Hoai Lam's hit
Le Quyen wears a midriff-baring dress under -12 degree Celsius weather, remixing Hoai Lam's hit song - Why be sad, my dear? Composed by musician Nguyen Minh Cuong. The work has been performed by many singers such as Nhu Quynh, Quang Le, but is still most popular through the voice of Hoai Lam with more than 110 million views on YouTube.
Thanks to the new arrangement from musician Minh Dai, Le Quyen's bolero product "flattering" the listeners with a thick, expressive, clear voice. The audience praised the female singer's voice for being more emphatic and emotional than in previous performances. Why be sad, my dear? at the tea room.
Performing Hoai Lam's successful hit, Le Quyen inevitably faced comparisons. Some audiences said that Le Quyen's voice was nostalgic and sad, but not as tearful and heartbreaking as the original singer.
Le Quyen has a different way of thinking. The music she brings still contains feelings of sadness and regret, but is infused with a spirit of confidence and strength so that the girl in the story can bravely overcome a broken love instead of being stuck in pain.
“I really like this MV. The new and creative harmony helps the song to be less sad and opens up a brighter part when love ends. Women can be sad when love breaks up but will be strong enough to move on,” she said.
Satisfied with acting guided by boyfriend
The MV setting is simple, filmed in a snow-covered pine forest in Big Bear, California, USA. The images in the MV are mainly natural scenery, emphasizing Le Quyen's "visual" (appearance) to express loneliness when singing "Why are you sad, my dear? Please send your pain to the sky". Therefore, besides singing, Le Quyen has to act and express a lot of emotions.
Lam Bao Chau - Le Quyen's boyfriend - played the role of MV project manager. He arranged the setting, helped her focus on her expressions and took care of his girlfriend while filming in harsh weather conditions of -12 degrees Celsius, wearing a mermaid dress with an open waist.
The singer shared that she liked her own eyes in this story. “It is an emotion that touches the depths of joy, anger, love, and hate, cold but deep down still warm and tolerant. Understanding and cherishing will grasp tightly, not being passionate enough will naturally be thousands of miles away and then melt into nothingness, like white snow on the mountain top under the sunlight.”
There were mixed opinions about the singer's MV, some praised the simple images, Le Quyen knew how to blend with the scenery. Some people commented that the scenery was beautiful but the music and images did not harmonize with each other.
“The song is excellent, the MV feels disharmonious, quite like a collage”, “The content is too different from the image. Some scenes zooming in on the characters are not pleasing to the eye”… the audience left comments.
