Preview the song list in advance
Fans show their talents
Even before the concert started, many Eason Chan fans were preheating the playlist on social platforms: "You say Eason Chan's playlist is unpopular? Don't be dissuaded yet, let me help you analyze the playlist."
Translate Opening the playlist of Eason Chan's "Fear and Dreams" Hangzhou concert, it is not difficult to see that popular Mandarin songs such as "Red Rose", "Long Time No See", "Brothers and Sisters", and "I Will Spend the Long Years with You" are still on the list, arousing everyone's cheers and Cantata.

I know that only a few people are applauding, but if you don’t want others to do anything, just go and do it. ”
