STORY OF MY LIFE: Secretaries Specials with Ramli Sarip

21st April 2011

My ex boss, Encik Mazlan sponsored me and his secretary, Siti to this showcase. Thank you so much En. Lan .. I had a blast and it was sporting of you to go up to that stage and participate...

The food was okay and I love the table decoration.. very nice and romantic :) .... love the fresh flowers and the bread was delicious...

The show hosted by our local popular comedian Dee. He always makes jokes and the jokes were funny .. then all of us were entertained with saxophonist En. Alif Nasir, belted out tunes such as Anuar Zain's Keabadian Cinta etc. After that a stylish fashion show "Marrie Show" from local talent designer Sabri Saad was shown. The collection was made from batik.

Then the major event .. Ramli Sarip sung more than 10 songs that day .. he belted out his hits tunes such as Jangan Tunggu Lama-lama, Teratai, Kamelia, Jikalau Berkasih, Istilah Bercinta, Bukan Kerna Nama, You're So Beautiful to name a few..

He even went down the stage and chose two women to sing along with him for the number Doa Buat Kekasih .. song he duet with Khatijah Ibrahim...

In one recent media interview for this event he mentioned how secretaries were the real bosses. He said the event’s theme was The boss, she’s the boss, with inspiration taken from songs by Bruce Springsteen and Mick Jagger.

“I hold women with much respect and admiration, so the songs are dedicated to them,” he added.
“When you listen to the lyrics of the songs, you will cry as they are classics, so be prepared with tissues,” he joked.

The sound system was good (despite few glitches here and there) as if I was in a concert hahaha ... and with the help from experienced musicians as Man Kidal and others .... overall Ramli Sarip still has umpphhh with that powerful husky, soul, rock voice .. no wonder he is still our Papa Rock Malaysia even though he'll be 60 next year ..
