I remember this was the first time most of HK's public heard her sing Chinese opera (she grew up singing a bit of it, but never in front of such a big audience, live and on TV). The next day, everybody was talking about how surprisingly good she was. After that, she was frequently asked to sing more opera at charity events and on TV shows.
The sad part is it took Mui many years of singing in street opera to perfect her skills. Behind every note I can imagine the days she sang to less appreciative crowd. No wonder diamonds are made under the harshest conditions. Well done, Mui, well done!
Who is eligible to replace her who can sung so well in both modern and opera songs. Anita Mui, miss you so much especially your talented singing. I can now only able to listen back your voice and songs thru youtube. Thank you to those who uploaded Anita Mui past performances in youtube.
Agree with benbowDD -- even in her concerts, you'll see her shaking hands with fans but still stay "in character" for her songs and won't skip a beat. She gave an amazing performance here.
Mui did it So Good!!! She executed each word and sound with excellent accuracy and told the story with no fault. At the same time she managed to take control of the charity business, bringing good mood and humour to the whole thing. She was the most talented and deserved our greatest respect.
truly well said, benbowDD. Not only she executes the notes with great accuaracy, her voice adds a great part to those superb performance. Even if she doesn't dance, doesn't joke, it's still worth a lot to listen to her sing. It's really a special experience considering her voice is so charming and soothing a lot of the times.
This is a very famous song which combines Nam Yum and other Cantonese music together. Nam Yum (the Southern Sound/Music) is the sort of melody that is sung by blind people. In the old days, blind people would go to learn to sing Nam Yum as a profession so as to make a living. They would accompany themselves with very simple musical instruments and telling their stories through this music.
This is of course a famous Canto-opera "beggar's" song for charity; but watching her doing it added a heightened sense of poignancy. Thanks for posting it.

若無記錯, 這應該是普羅大眾第一次聽梅姐唱粵曲。 她自小就有唱, 但在這之前, 沒有很多人知道她有粵曲底子的。 表演之後第二日, 各報章娛樂版都標題「梅艷芳唱萬惡淫為首 - 一鳴驚人」之類。 自此之後, 很多籌錢大型活動和表演節目都要求她唱粵曲。 很多粵曲大老倌都說 在流行歌手中, 不論男女, 只有她一人平喉 / 南音唱得有版有眼.
亞梅的歌聲真是動聽,,唱粵曲亦很有天份,現今的歌星的曲藝,真是望塵莫及,可惜天嫉紅顏,她這麼年輕就走了。
亞梅真喺好嘢，連新馬祥呢首名曲，都唱得如此出色好聽，真喺百變歌手!👍👀👏
聽得出完全充滿行善的音律，無論過去幾多，妳呢份善心都會流芳百世!!
佢真係好有才華❤️
She is so talented OMGGG🥰
非常喜欢阿妹唱粤剧

阿梅唱粵曲真係一流，冇得彈！

百聽不厭！
好正啊！ 阿梅唱粤曲太好听！很地道的唱腔，转音。
好一位天才女子
Anita is soooo good! Now that's real talent!
Her Cantonese opera singing ,to me, is better than many professional of the trade.
Wow...Anita...God did need a sweet angel...this song made me cry...

梅的才华无人能及

Thank you very much for the information
@regalmeridian Wow....thank you so much for the explanation....what a sad song...I admire Anita Mui even more now...what a sweet angel god took....
miss her
ANITA was the best singer

百聽不厭
唔通只得我一個人覺得，梅姐唱乞食有小小新馬仔既感覺。
唱得好好啊
百聽不厭，
前无古人 后无来者梅艳芳
阿梅聲唱功同線條件好唔使講大家都認同, 叻就叻在眾多時代曲歌手(包括所有殿堂級)唱粵曲最好也最似粵曲發聲的一位, 尤其在過序拉個段好有味道, 比起好多粵曲女平名家也不遑多讓.
很多人自稱學新馬,看了這個視頻,不知作何感想.
譚詠麟都覺得亞梅唱得超水準
唉，2022年。冇话粤剧，粤语都变紧世遗了。
Please can anyone tel me the name of the opera? Although I'm not Chinese I enjoy Cantonese opera.may she rest in peace.
The name of the opera is 萬惡淫為首 。the original version was from this guy ruclips.net/video/ZSkWuTHOnrM/видео.html
有英文無中文
