Concert date: 10/20/99 Milano, Italia
Review of the show:
We drove from Rome to Milan and we took 7 hours! I was so tired but so excited. 2nd line and many friends to meet from all over my country! B4 the show started I met Michael Baker and I asked him about Whit's voice. He answered that she would have sounded real great... But I was afraid anyway! When the concert began all my doubts went away. Whit's voice was PERFECT! Strong and clear, she could easily reach all the highest notes. GREAT! She was so beautiful in her black pants+jacket and the hat on her head like Marlene style (somebody says Michael Jackson style!!!)She sang all the songs she usually sang in the European tour (unfortunately no surprise songs!). The one I loved the most was "I love the Lord" OH MY GOD, that one was unbelieveble... Also "Until you come back" and "I learned from the best" were wonderful but she cut them without singing the second verse of both. That made me upset because "I learned from the best" will be the next single and it would have been better for the public to listen to it completely!!! When she sang "Step by Step" she asked us to stand up and clap our hands and it was a very joyful moment!!! "My love is your love" has been another great moment. Also Bobby Brown came up to the stage and sang a little rap dancing the funny tribal dance! "I will always love you" made the forum crazy. She sang at her best and people simply loved it! Sitting so close to her, she smiled and say "HI" to me several times and I was like OH MY GOD! But not all made a positive impression to me. It was like everything was too perfect!!! Sometimes I thought I was watching a video... It seemed like she had lost her true passion for the singing, probably because this is the end of the tour and she's becoming bored to do and sing the same things! The concert lasted only 1 hour and 1/2 and she seemed like she wanted to finish as soon as possible! She spent just a few words with the public and even when she introduced the band she just told the names one after the other (we all were used to her long and funny introducings...)At the end of the concert I didn't know how to feel about it. There was something that made me feel sad and I couldn't understand what it was. Now that two days passed I finally knew what it was. Something has changed maybe it's me! Next 30th I will be in Oberhausen. This time I just want to enjoy the concert without expecting too much, and I know everything will be perfect! Whit, that's because I love you too much! Peace, Fede
