Top 10 Best Songs by Singer Đàm Vĩnh Hưng

At the 'Golden Album' TV program in May 2007, Lost Without You also won two awards: the artistic council award and the audience choice award. And the theme song of the album - Lost Without You (composed by Lê Quang) - immediately became a hit at every stage, music venue across the country. At the album's introduction night at the Nameless Café, Đàm Vĩnh Hưng did not hide his ambition that Lost Without You would become the 'song of the year' (the most liked song, most requested to sing). And the reason he believed that Lost Without You would 'win' is the sincerity and the true story in the song.

Lost Without You was born in the early days of 2007. It's an unforgettable love story of Đàm Vĩnh Hưng with a girl who had always considered him as a family member.

After many ups and downs in both of their lives, one day, 'Mr. Đàm' realized that he deeply loved and wanted to live with that girl. He unexpectedly confessed his feelings. The girl was shocked. And of course, that love was not accepted. 'Not only new artists encounter that kind of love. There are many people in life who fall into similar situations. Perhaps that's why the song is loved so much' - composer Lê Quang concluded about the success of the song.

The song Longing for You, selected and performed by singer Đàm Vĩnh Hưng, belongs to the Golden Music genre featured in the CD album Melodies for Lovers 1. The song is part of the best collection of Đàm Vĩnh Hưng's music and had a significant presence on YouTube in 2018. Longing for You touches many hearts with its lyrics, especially when sung by 'Mr. Hưng' himself.

The romantic melody, in general, and Lam Phương's music, in particular, are almost always successfully interpreted by the singer with a fresh and modern style. And indeed, Longing for You quietly made its way into the top.

Song lyrics:
'Oh my, I'm restless all night because of you
Because of the farewell words when I left
Saying that tomorrow, I'll come back
My wish for a lifetime
Is for us to always be together.

Oh my, I miss you, longing for you all night
How can I forget the peaceful moments
Waiting for the morning light
Right on time for our date
Life forgets all worries.

[Chorus:]
Why do you sit silently, making my heart numb
Please answer me, what are you waiting for
Many times we shared dreams, promising each other
Forget about the past
Do you know, my dear?

Loving you, missing you, it's all about you
What's more beautiful than our embrace
Hoping for a beautiful fate together
Wishing for a lifetime
To always be close to you.'

The lyrics of the song Apologies, My Love

, composed by musician Minh Nhiên, are closely intertwined with the reputation of singer Đàm Vĩnh Hưng. Musician Minh Nhiên poured his deepest emotions into writing the lyrics of Apologies, My Love, depicting the profound feelings of a young man for the woman he loves. This song has solidified Đàm Vĩnh Hưng's status as a 'monument' in the hearts of Vietnamese music enthusiasts.

The heartfelt words in the lyrics of Apologies, My Love express sincere apologies from a young man to his beloved woman, even for mistakes caused by external circumstances. However, the young man in Apologies, My Love always portrays himself as strong and masculine, apologizing to his beloved because it does not diminish his strength but rather showcases the gallantry of a true gentleman.

Apologies, My Love is a poignant song that captures intense and profound love, despite its melancholic ending where the two can no longer be together. The young man still yearns for care and comfort for the woman, expressing, 'I want to hold you and wipe away all worries,' and simply wishes her to find new happiness, viewing their broken love affair as merely a dream. He implores the woman to forget about him, as he is merely a romantic, immersed in the intoxication of love but unable to give his whole heart and love to her.

Among the finest songs by Đàm Vĩnh Hưng, one cannot overlook the song Waiting for You in Dreams. This is a beloved piece, composed by Ngọc Sơn, and successfully interpreted by Mr. Đàm.

Lyrics:

Why did you leave silently, causing my heart to ache?
Years of happiness together.
Now fading into the mist.
My beloved, whenever I return.
Quietly gazing at the empty room.
My heart is filled with sorrow.
Are you happy tonight, with your warm lover?
While I am lonely and desolate.
My heart overflowing with pain.

Chorus:
Even if your love sails away, I will remain here.
Forever immersed in naive dreams.
Now I am alone in this empty room.
Praying for you to return in peaceful dreams.

'Sad City' is a classic Vietnamese song closely associated with the renowned composer Lam Phương. The song depicts a love story between a couple amidst the backdrop of Đà Lạt city with its mist-covered pine forests, evoking a sense of melancholy.

With a raspy yet warm voice, the singer leads listeners step by step back to the rendezvous spot in the old city. Although the song has been performed by many artists such as Trường Vũ, Chế Linh, Sơn Tuyền, and Thiên Trang, Đàm Vĩnh Hưng brings a completely fresh and vibrant interpretation. The singer's rendition of longing in the light music genre is both poignant and heartrending but not gloomy.

Đàm Vĩnh Hưng recorded the song in 2008 for the album 'Melodies for Lovers 2.' 'Sad City' is a timeless hit that has transcended eras. The melancholic melody of the song has haunted me since I was young. When performing the song, I put pressure on myself, ensuring not to miss a beat or deviate from its sentimental rhythm. I sing with reverence, as a new representative, following the towering legacy that Chế Linh has created,' Đàm Vĩnh Hưng said.

Trần Quang Vinh (also known by the stage name Thái Thịnh; born on July 1, 1966, in Biên Hòa), is a Vietnamese musician, famous as one of the pioneering songwriters in the Vietnamese music scene from the 1990s to the present. He is known for composing famous romantic songs such as 'Fate,' 'If You Were Given a Choice,' 'Remembering a Time We Loved,' 'What Limits Us'... The song What Limits Us was successfully performed by singer Đàm Vĩnh Hưng.

Lyrics:
'Everything in life
Has its own limit
Desires are never fulfilled
Even the dearest one is considered deceitful
Just formed a relationship
Then the next day, blaming each other for betrayal
Trust in humanity is always fragile
People's love for each other changes so quickly
Every human life
Longs for many dreams and desires
When hope is gone
Almost everyone complains about life's cruelty
Think that
Nothing comes naturally easy
And life is not like a never-ending dream
Sorrow and joy in destiny are all within our control...'

Within the treasure trove of Vietnamese folklore, there's a folk verse about deep love that goes: 'The hair, short or long, regardless / Marrying each other, don't cherish forever'. From this folk verse, in 1956, musician Phạm Mạnh Cương borrowed the last 4 words to create the famous song called Love for a Thousand Years.

Perhaps any girl in love would soften when hearing her lover confess with the words: Thousand years of longing for just one shadow… Once love has sparked, affection has been expressed, everyone hopes that love will become eternal like drifting clouds for a thousand years, even though knowing that the path of love will have its ups and downs, but hoping that it will be like the waxing and waning of the moon, distant love will one day be close again.

Love for a Thousand Years is a song with the warm, husky voice of Mr. Đàm that is always loved and remembered by fans. Love for a Thousand Years is one of his most beloved wedding songs.

The song 'How Could You Forget' was composed by Tô Thanh Tùng based on his budding romance. In 1965, the musician developed feelings for a village girl named Tuyết, whom he met when she was only 17 years old. It was Tuyết who bravely confessed her love to the first-year college student during a holiday trip back to their hometown. However, as he was still studying and not ready for any commitments, Tô Thanh Tùng quietly declined the innocent love affair. Out of affection and regret, he wrote this song for Tuyết, in which throughout the lyrics, there's a tone of gentle reproach with the line: 'how could you forget'.

A significant success in Đàm Vĩnh Hưng's career was his transition from pop music to ballads, earning him recognition as a phenomenon in the music entertainment industry. Almost all the songs he covers bear his distinct personal style while still conveying the songwriter's emotions.

One notable example is 'How Could You Forget'. While we may be familiar with the lyrics, if you listen to a few notes, you'll recognize that Đàm Vĩnh Hưng is the one who performed this song right after.

Female poet Ngô Tịnh Yên recounted that after Trần Duy Đức read a segment of the poem 'Radiant Pain' in the newspaper in the late 1990s, he immediately went to meet the poet, asking for the entire poem to set to music. He completed the song titled 'If You Ever Love Me' on his way back home. Perhaps it was because he captured the exact emotional rhythm of the poem, in line with the author's feelings, that the song was written in a very short time, and then it lived long in the hearts of fans. It's very easy to hear this song in Đàm Vĩnh Hưng's voice as it's one of the most heard songs in the entertainment scene recently.

The song is composed with lively rhythms combined with gentle reminders, a familiar message for those who meet and love each other in life. You can download this song on any website with Đàm Vĩnh Hưng's music easily.

Hàn Mặc Tử was a famous poet from the late 1930s. Many poetry lovers admired Hàn Mặc Tử's poems, but many also felt 'chilling' when reading his painful, 'crazy' verses. However, with the golden song named Hàn Mặc Tử, composer Trần Thiện Thanh seemed to dedicate his whole heart to the talented but ill-fated poet. Through tender, poignant lyrics and sweet, heartfelt bolero melodies, composer Trần Thiện Thanh brilliantly fulfilled the role of a storyteller with an emotive voice, vividly portraying the complex emotions of the poet in his broken relationship with Mộng Cầm.

Not entirely unfamiliar to listeners, but the song is rearranged with a new musical background, evoking just the right amount of sadness. The song's sentiment transcends generations and can be addictive to anyone who feels it. This is one of the reasons why 'Hàn Mặc Tử' tops the list of Đàm Vĩnh Hưng's best songs.
