Original / 什麼事發生都是好的啦！(2007-04-14 22:22:05)

Once there was a little Princess which grow up on a small Island (Inselreich).
She was not only charming and pretty she also possessed a great talent,
the sound of her voice was a rarity of beauty ...

Nevertheless, the situation for her was not always been a simple one, so
she had to learn at an early age to care for herself and others.
Her friends and advisor said, however, whatever happens it is good
for you ...

Finally, after years of waiting and lots of effort her big moment came,
for the first time she stepped into the light of a big crowd and everyone was fascinated from her Singing and her voice.
Her friends and advisor unanimous said, however, whatever happens it is good
for you ...

The success seemed boundless, but almost imperceptibly, dark clouds moved over
their small island together.
It seemed as if the fate was trying to prevent possible crowning glory,
a queen was not wanted...
Her friends and advisor didn't recognize the warnings,however,whatever happens it is good for you...

The little Princess became very ill,
unfortunately, she noticed that fact until very late,
she hesitated to seek for advice,she hesitated to ask for help,
because friends and adviser would anyway come to the conclusion
whatever happens it is good for you ...

Until very late, too late was her silent cry for help answered,
they did everything humanly possible to avert the impending fate...
the little Princess fought bravely in a hopeless battle ...
Friends and advisers were of the opinion this serves a higher purpose;
however,whatever happens it is good for you ...

Ah Sang 阿桑 died on April 6th 2009, our little Princess...,

forever and all times - unforgotten.
For me, the motto lost its meaning, whatever happened does not necessarily mean it is good ...

Ah Sang 阿桑 28 Feb 1975 - 6 April 2009

Ah Sang 阿桑 ,the female singer who rose to fame by singing “Leaves”, passed away at Tzu Chi General Hospital in Taipei County / Taiwan, on April 6 2009. She had reached the last stage of breast cancer and died at the age of 34. Her fans are still waiting for her new album by posting on her forum, “Waiting for Ah Sang to shine again.” Her colleagues, Power Station and S.H.E were shocked when they received the news.

Ah Sang original name is Huang Yanlin. She rose to fame by singing for the top viewed Taiwan drama, The Rose in year 2003. She is labeled by the company as the next Mavis Hee. After releasing her debut album, ‘I’m A Little Hurt’ in 2003, she proceed to release her second album in 2005 called, ‘Loneliness is Singing’. However, her album did not manage to get good sales but her songs became popular. During these few years, she earned her income by singing in some places and it was rumored she is going to get married this year.

Ah Sang stepped into the entertainment biz when she was 28 years old. Her career ended before it can continue any further. In October last year, she felt unwell when she was in Mainland China. She went back to Taiwan for a check-up and was diagnosed with last stage of breast cancer. The cancerous cells have affected her liver and lungs. She remained as lively when she chatted with her former colleagues on MSN or on phone.

Last year, Ah Sang wrote in her blog, “I’m fine and awake. I can come out to meet everyone and I’m happy but please give me a few more days.” Until December last year, Ah Sang’s agent, Wang Yiping continued to post on her behalf to let her fans encourage her and give her their blessings.

The name Ah Sang originate from her voice which give others a sense of sadness and her career is also full of sadness. She had a chance to record album way back in her college days but due to a flood, the demo cd was destroyed and thus she had to wait till the song, “Leaves” for her voice to be known.
