Delta in Hong Kong - She's taking the world by storm!
2008 brings us with exciting news of Delta embarking upon her first visit to Hong Kong where she'll be promoting music from her latest album release, Delta. Delta was officially released in Hong Kong on January 11th.
Delta arrived in Hong Kong in earlier this month. She performed a private music showcase, consisting of eight songs, for a select audience that included VIP and media representatives at the Landmark Mandarin Oriental's lobby bar on January 14th. More pictures of Delta's showcase: Setlist:

Thanks for this thread, Kay! I'd not seen a lot of the stuff in the OP before!
Yay, Carrie and Delta mentioned in the same article. I hope videos of the showcase turn up soon. __________________

"had to settle" Pfft. They should be so lucky.
Excellent opener Kay, I'll be back in the afternoon with a more substantial reply. |

Thanks for the thread & opener. Great title too!
MTV ASIA #7 [its debut last week was at #9] MTVAsia.com - Welcome! I don't know what that means - like if thats from video airplay or votes or whatever. Same too with the J-Wave Tokio Hot 100 in which Delta is at the first-song spot of #100 The Tokio Hot 100 has been described as The Official Japan Singles Chart for Western artists [i.e. not including Japanese artists]... however I'm not sure if that is true. Either way vote for it TOKIO HOT 100 #100 [debut] The number is expected to increase as the official release of ITL is on January 23 whereas this is as of January 21. As archived, on October 8 2006 Flawed was at #72 -- its release was on October 11 and the following week it was at #21 so I am expecting a big jump from 100... not sure to where though.

Oh right. Wow, going up from #72 to #21's good. Hopefully ITL'll do even better.
Kay - Born to Fly, haha, reckon that was lost in translation or they didn't read up on it enough?! __________________

Naomi: My guess is that they didn't do their research accurately before writing up that review.
Medine: Thanks for the chart information, it's interesting to see how they're taking to her music over there. I have my fingers crossed that we will get footage from the showcase soon. I was thrilled to see "I Can't Break It To My Heart" on the setlist and really want to hear her live version of it. |

I'm only just going through all the pictures in the opener [I turned off the images in my profile so I only see them as clickable links]..
I love that people turned up at the airport over there, she must've been blown away. Someone's an avid fan, they brought MI for her to sign! She looks very rockstar with her sunnies.. Love that picture of her in the circle thing..unusual shot! And of course, that article with Carrie inset aint too shabby either. I was excited to see she'd performed ICBITMH too! She's done all the other songs elsewhere, that's the only one we've not heard yet. Hopefully soon! |

I know, I thought it was very cool that a bunch of fans showed up to greet her at the airport. I was looking through one person's pictures that they shared on a HK Delta Forum, and they made huge posters for her that were really gorgeous & thoughtful. I bet Delta really appreciated that!
Johnson, from DGOF, who went to the 'A Night With Delta Goodrem' showcase shared the following pictures online... The winning ticket to the showcase: And he kindly translated the following articles reviewing Delta's performance in English: Sing Pao Daily News Quote:

Wow, HK really does love Delta! Beautiful banners. Every banner we see here is sloppy in comparison.
Awww, she's adorable. "Maybe I said it poorly!" |
