    Wink Celebrating the 80s and 90s Canto Style! - Entertainment Variety thread

    Paying Tribute to the artists of the 80s and 90s - The ones who make history by transcending time through their wonderful singing (and perhaps acting too).

    The object of this thread is to welcome everyone to post video clips (via youtube) of popular HK singers of the 80s and 90s, and comedy skits, opera, and other clips containing popular artists. TVB anniversary clips are welcome. TVB actor/actress/singer video clips are welcome.

    Alright...making it up as I go. So I apologize if its not as organized as Mr. Ken's.

    Another classic.

    Julian Cheung (張智霖) and Maple Hui (許秋怡) - Maple was Julian's girlfriend back then, right?

    Yin Doi Ngoi Ching Gu Si (現代愛情故事) - I remember this song was pretty popular back then. It's still the most memorable Julian's song for me.

    Kidd, Oh! So she's Maple Hui! I saw her in A Stage of Turbulence, I didn't know she really a singer too.

    Can you post more of Sam Tsang's? Like the subsong he sang for A Mark of Triumph, that reminds me Nadia Chan and Vivian Chow were hugely popular during those time.

    Maz999, You're welcome to post them, if you like. Just remember to give credit to where it is due, if it isn't yours.

    Oh, man. I remember how much I loved Aaron Kwok, he was such a cutie back then and the hairstyle everyone had in the early 90s. Hahaha. Back then, I listened to Aaron's songs alot. And when he starred in Heartstrings with Gigi Lai and Fennie Yuen, I watched that too.

    Aaron at the 30th Anniversary of TVB
    http://youtube.com/watch?v=dPHi4pddmGU

    The 2nd song he sings in that anniversary is one of my faves, haha, "Aaron, can I dance with you!!! <3!! Here it is, "Love's Call": http://youtube.com/watch?v=LqK_z7ALFIg

    Ew, is that Michelle Saram?

    Anyone know when this was made? This clip features a bunch of stars with Aaron.

    I don't think it's legal, but go for it anyway. If TVB doesn't want the videos to be on YouTube, they'll just contact YouTube and demand the removal of the videos. That's what some record studios did with some music videos. I say you'll even help promote their series since TVB doesn't seem to care much.
    My obsessions: Joy Division, New Order, Bones, The Office.

    Dicky Cheung

    I admit, I used to like him as an actor but not anymore. However as a singer, he's not too bad. Could anyone find more? I keep finding more of his Mandarin songs instead, which I like too. Like the "This is My Love" song but that's from the 2000s.
