This day has got to be the best in years! Not only was it my birthday but I also experienced hearing and seeing a wonderful and talented artist, Bruno Mars, live! I don't even know where to begin or how to describe everything. I don't think my words can be put into a blog to showcase his talent. I know for sure though I wanted to cry just knowing that the concert just ended and all I want to do is just relive it over and over again. Not only did he sing his songs but he sang old 90's songs, like the slow jams, which included Ignition, Cupid, etc. Not only that but he also integrated the songs all together and the transition was just so unbelievably smooth I was screaming my head off! He showed some of his talent and music he grew up with like the blues and "doo wops" I think. I find it so humble of him to always go back to his roots with the oldies music instead of the typical music industry, auto tune music nowadays. This guy has real talent that even sounds better live which is so rare for artists to sound these days. He pulled some local jokes about girls from Waianae and how to approach them. Also, when he sang Billionaire, he changed the lyrics saying "I wanna be on the cover of Midweek" or "eating zippys every night I swear, the aina better prepare, when I'm a billionaire" the crowd went wild, it's just those small things that will always bring him back to Hawaii no matter how rich and famous he gets. Pretty much, it was the best birthday ever, and to have my first concert being Bruno Mars on my birthday just completed this whole year.
