Bevlyn’s thoughts: 当我八十岁 (When I’m 80)
Earlier this year, Esther had kindly invited me to write a couple of articles for My Paper, and I have always been very thankful for the opportunities. When I got wind that she would like to engage A Little Dream for her wedding, I was thrilled beyond words!
It turned out that Jeff loves one of the songs in my EP album titled “失了踪” (Lost), but since it is not a suitable wedding song, Esther requested that I sing “When I’m 80” as the first song, her hope was for Jeff to be surprised by my live singing because I was supposed to be a surprise item for him. Then, as with many busy wedding couples, Esther let the cat out of the bag at the 11th hour. I was laughing in stitches when she described how that actually happened.

It was nevertheless a good gig. I relished singing some new covers like How Deep Is Your Love and Auld Lang Syne, both taken off the soundtrack of Sex And the City

Compliments from Jeff: My Thanks
My brief but ‘surprising’ encounter with Bevlyn, and also with the huge turn out meant that I had very little time to hear her soulful voice in its entirety.
But that little time which I manage to stop and listen, was really just bliss.
I thank you Bevelyn, Brad and Matthew for being present on our special day.
My compliments to you all for taking time out to celebrate with us.
– Jeff
