Hennessy Artistry @ Orange Club

Posted By Michael Yip / September, 29, 2008 / 5 comments

Hennessy Artistry featuring Shayne Ward, The DEY and Until June as well as DJ Tom Price has come and gone. I’m sure those who went enjoyed themselves tremendously and those who didn’t go wished they could have gone. As for myself, it was a memorable night throughout. This i consider a long and photo heavy post, so you’ve been warned.


The Hennessy Girls n Me

Firstly, I reached there about 7.15 with Freaky and Dinnas as I informed 15 photographers both experienced and new to attend this event as a field trip to learn about event photography. It might look easy and all but it really isn’t especially if you’re working with the most basic of gears which doesn’t help with it’s less than good compatibility with low lights. It’s either sacrificing the noise or go low on the shutter speed to get the shots we want.

About 8.15pm, that’s when every 15 photographers registered to attend the event showed up. A Quick briefing and a walk-about of the venue was done and the photographers was then encourage to fire away! As for myself, I go about grabbing some shots as well to keep myself entertained. The crowd started to build up even from 7.30ish but the doors to the venue was still blocked until 9pm before the crowd was invited to register themselves at the counters to get into the venue. The performing celebrities showed up about that time as well and with over 20 photographers there. They were mobbed around the vanity board to pose and all. I didn’t bother to try and grab shots as it’s more of a priority to allow the other 15 take what they want. (more…)

Shayne Ward’s No You Hang Up @ Hennessy Artistry

Just thought I’d dedicate this video to StrippedSteph as she couldn’t make it to Hennessy Artistry.

Recorded it when Shayne performed ‘No You Hang Up’ during his performance. Just thought it’d be an appropriate song for her.

First time recording a video using a point n shoot camera. Felt odd as I’m so used to record videos using a huge ass camera.

The Lyrics of No You Hang Up
Oh, yeah

You got my attention at hello
We had this connection that wouldn’t let go
There was something sexy about your voice
Anything you say makes a beautiful noise

Oh-oh

And now we break up to make up right away (we make up right away)
Just an excuse to lay in bad all day (oh we’ll lay in bed all day)
I know that this thing we have won’t ever change
That’s why I have the confidence to say

[Chorus:]
A lot of girls are sexy but you know how to use it
You can keep me up on the phone all night
We say let’s hang up on three but we don’t ever do it
Ain’t it crazy how after all this time
We got that you hang up no, you hang up kinda love
We got that you hang up no, you hang up kinda love

Every time you call me I won’t lie
I still get the goosebumps I felt the first time
That I saw you walk In to a room
Girl, you had me hooked on that beautiful view

And now we break up and now we break up
To make up right away (oh, we make up right away)
Just an excuse to lay in bad all day (and we lay in bed all day)
I know that this thing we have won’t ever change
That’s why I have the confidence to say

[Chorus]

We got that you hang up no, you hang up kinda love (kinda love)

Baby you still know just how to blow my mind
And after everything that we’ve been through
It still feels right (Girl and I) I know
(That) I can’t picture living my life
Without you

Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus:]
A lot of girls are sexy but you know how to use it
You can keep me up on the phone all night (all night)
We say let’s hang up on three but we don’t ever do it
Ain’t it crazy how after all this time
We got that you hang up no, you hang up kinda love
We got that you hang up no, you hang up kinda love

A lot of girls are sexy (a lot of girls are so sexy)
You can keep me up on the phone all night (oh, you better watch)
We say let’s hang up on three (you hang up, no, you hang up kinda love)
But we don’t ever do it (you hang up you hang up kinda love)
Ain’t it crazy how after all this time

We got that you hang up. No, you hang up kinda love [x4]
