Hsin Yeow’s thoughts: Till The End
The theme song of Alan and Lynn’s wedding celebration was local singer-songwriter David Tan’s Till The End. The couple must have liked David’s plaintive delivery and lyrics.
I don’t know the details of how Alan and Lynn found each other and fell in love, but I’d like to think that both of them identify with the sentiments in the chorus of the song.
All of the love I used to hide
I’ll always be with you until the very end
In this world, there is no place I’d rather be
And through it all I know
that you’ve come to see that
You’re the one till the end
Midway through the luncheon, I asked Alan how he felt. He was beaming widely, and said he couldn’t wait for it to be over! I could sense that he was anxious to spend time with Lynn, the love of his life.
We had so much fun performing at the wedding! Julian, our new pianist, was a joy to work with. I also enjoyed Sebastian’s playing, and his virtuosic guitar skills were on full display that afternoon.
I will always remember the wedding for the finale. The song was supposed to be You To Me Are Everything, but Alan’s mum came up to me and asked me a question that completely floored me. She asked, “Can you play a fast number? We want to dance!”
It is so rare to hear such requests that it took me five second to reply, “Okay, let’s do Crazy Little Thing Called Love!” When we performed this song, Alan’s mum pulled a few of Alan’s aunties onstage and danced with abandon! That’s what a celebration should be all about!
Congratulations, Alan and Lynn!
