The 2023 Commercial Radio Ultimate Song Chart Awards took place last night at AsiaWorld Expo. MIRROR and its members won 5 awards. Keung To with WAVE won "My Favorite Song" for the 4th straight years, as well as the 6th place on the Ultimate Top Ten; Ian Chan Cheuk Yin won his first "Male Singe Bronze Prize" and repeated the "Creative Singer Bronze Prize" victory. "My Favorite Male Singer" was Hins Cheung King Hin, beating out Wan Kwong and the 3 MIRROR members. Also with IMAGINARY FAIRGROUND he received the "Ultimate Song" Award. Panther Chan Lui won the most individual awards with 4 to become the big winner and the double award female singer.
Chan Lui became the biggest winner of individual awards, winning "My Favorite Female Singer", "Female Singer Gold Prize", "Creative Singer Silver Prize" and "Ultimate Top Ten" 3th place. She said, "This year is the year I have been on the stage the most, which I would consider as the proper answer. Actually I am transforming. When I am writing songs I never thought about war. In 2024, I wish everyone would cherish what they have." Gin Lee Ngai Hung won the "Female Singer Silver Prize" and was moved to tears. "For awhile I wanted to put the period to my singing career. Thank you fans and Emperor Records' support, for me to bravely chasing dreams once again." Female Singer Bronze prize winner Serrini asked if she would be considered the first person to win this award without the record company's support. After winning the award she paused for two seconds before saying, "I really won this award."
This year's "My Favorite Male Singer" competition has been fierce. The internet pushed the 79 year old Wan Kwong into the top 5 opposite Cheung King Hin and MIRROR members Keung To, Anson Lo Hon Ting and Ian. Cheung King Hin after an active campaign finally won the award again after 10 years, and with IMAGINARY FAIRGROUND he won the Ultimate Song Award. When he received the award from Jan Lamb Hoi Fung he said, "I want to sincerely thank every person who voted for me; like Lam Hoi Fung says music continues to change, but I would remain humble. I hope to be able to improve Hong Kong music with everyone. Since 2014, I have received everyone's recognition over these 10 years. Now participating award shows are the new generation, no one in my generation. I can only continue to remain strong curiosity to do better. I came from Guangzhou to Hong Kong and toiled for 23 years. Everyone went from accepting into believing. I want to thank this city for the blessing it has given me. In 2024 I would make good songs and new developments, like being a rookie I would do my part to thank everyone for their support."
Anson Lo was neither able to repeat as "My Favorite Male Singer" nor win an individual award. MIRROR only won "My Favorite Group and not in the top three of the "Ultimate Music Group". The Gold Prize of that award went to Dear Jane, and silver and bronze respectively went to Lolly Talk and COLLAR. Captain Lokman Yeung pointed out that last years members had many different work, but as a music group they came up a little short. They would perform the concerts together and hoped to be able to work more. Member Keung To with the song WAVE won "My Favorite Song" and Ultimate Top Ten 6th place. He said, "I would do better." Sammy said, "That's right, say less and do more." He also said, "Thank you for all the waves that happened this year." Ian won "Male Singer Bronze Prize" and "Creative Singer Bronze Prize". He was surprised to learn that he won the Male Singer Bronze prize. "I feel I was more casual with singing before, after getting into the business on countless nights I thought about giving up. However this award reminds me how I got on this journey, thank you everyone."
Lolly Talk aside from breaking into the "Ultimate Top Ten" with ON FIRE also won "Ultimate Music Group silver prize". They were rather emotional on the stage, stating that last year they have been very lucky. "We had different opportunities to fulfill our dreams. We would keep working hard. I hope we would be together, laughing and crying, to be see by everyone, to continue fulfilling our dreams. Thank you very much to our team. We sometimes would do some very dumb things. We promise that from now on we would keep charging ahead!"
Terence Lam Ka him won 3 awards, repeating "Male Singer Gold Prize" and "Creative Singer Gold Prize" as well as the "Song Composer Award". He said that each time he has won the male singer award he has been very scared. This year he had many more opportunities to sing but has been repeatedly denied and recognized, only this way would he have the balance to improve and remain humble. MC Cheung Tin Fu went from last year's Male Singer Bronze Prize to Silver Prize, and with THE ONE FOR U he won the Ultimate Top Ten 8th place. When he accepted the Ultimate Top Ten award earlier he seemed to be a little down and lacked a smile. When he accepted the Male Singer award he explained that at the time he did not expect to win the award. He was having a throat drop.
Gigi Yim Ming Hay with LITTLE MAGIC won the Ultimate Top Ten 10th place. Instead of being sexy, she was covered from head to toe with a bottleneck dress and an alternative style. She said that when she heard that she would win one of the Ultimate awards, she felt it was like a fantasy. She never thought about winning before and it was very rare. "Thank you to all the DJ friends who have played my songs, all the friends who love me. I hope everyone would give more time, more opportunity for me to do more different songs for everyone."
Lam Chi Lok won the Rookie Male Singer silver prize. He said that from the beginning he has never thought about winning an award. "Several days ago I drew a bad luck straw and I was upset for days. Being on this stage is one of my wish list items. I haven't thought bout getting in on the first year, not to mention winning the silver prize."
Jeffrey Ngai Chun Sun won the Rookie Male Singer Gold Prize. He got a little emotional before getting on the stage. Host Sammy joked that he was "a singer who was almost hindered by his looks". Jeffrey on the stage continued his bumbling nature, only worrying about digging for his cheat sheet in his pocket and forgetting to accept the award from Sammy. Finally he needed Sammy's help to hold his cheat sheet for him to read. He took out the "cheat sheet" to thank his girlfriend and manager Evelyn and say "I Love You". Silver prize winner was the STARS Academy singer Felix Lam Chi Lok; P1X3L member Marco Ip Chun Won won the bronze prize. He was still ailing and unable to accept the award in person. His group mates Phoebus Ng Kai Yeung and George Au Chun King accepted it on his behalf. Rookie Female Singer Gold Prize went to COLLAR's Marf Yau Yin Tung, silver and bronze prizes went to Nancy Kwai Cheuk Hiu and Sica Ho Lok Yiu. Marf said while looking at her "cheat sheet", "Thank you to the company for tolerating my rebelliousness, COLLAR's 6 members for giving me the peace of mind for me to step on the solo journey."
For the second music report card, almost 100 singers attended the event last night. Many fans have arrived before the show began with banners to support their idols. Cheung King Hin, Yim Ming Hay and MIRROR members Chan Cheuk Yin and Jeremy's support team kept chanting slogans in deafening noise levels.
As for "Cult Leader" Lo Hon Ting's support, they were situated at the outdoor space outside the venue -- the largest fan group at the event. Keung To's support are only had a big group of "Keung candies" taking selfies but no slogan chant. However the venue had a super gigantic billboard of Keung To.
