GENTING HIGHLANDS, Malaysia—The Osmonds thrilled fans in Malaysia when they took centre stage at the Arena of Stars on Saturday night. The one-night only performance by the legendary American musical family treated a full-house of audiences with their varieties of rock 'n' roll and country style music, and their favorite 70's pop songs.
The seven siblings of the Osmonds—Alan, Wayne, Merrill, Jay Wesley, Donny, Marie and Jimmy—performed together in the last show of The Osmonds 50th Anniversary Tour. Their fast paced and the sensational reunion performance transports fans back to the good old days of the 70's.
The Osmonds started the show with the energy filled "Crazy Horses." Fans were quickly warmed up to the rest of oldies in the concert. Then, "Lazy River, Proud One" and "Yo Yo" were performed. Fans cheered Donny the loudest when it was his turn to sing the group hits.
Marie performed a few American country style solo hits. The humorous Marie caused laughter from the floor when she interacted with them. A lucky fan was picked by Marie to sing with her the song "Crazy." Surprisingly, the talented fan sang well with Marie, winning big round of applause from audiences.
Next after Marie was the high octane Rock 'n' Roll session performed by Merrill and the Osmonds brothers. Fans were charmed by their non-stop sequence of Rock 'n' Roll. The drummer surprised audiences with his breathtaking skills of drum solo.
The Osmonds especially mentioned the meaning of their conceptual Rock 'n' Roll "The Plan Medley," which asks profound questions such as who mankind is, where they come from and where they are heading. The backdrop showed images of the mysterious universe and the earth, symbolizing the questions by the Osmonds about the wonders of life.
The group also touched the hearts of the crowd by dedicating the song "He's My Brother" to two other brothers who were borne deaf. For more touching moments, their childhood photos and videos appeared on the backdrop when they sang "Through the Years."
Donny was the most favorite in the show when he performed solo hits "Any Dream" and "Puppy Love." He walked into the crowd when he sang "Hey Girl," triggering fans enthusiasm, some even hugged him and shouted, "This is my dream comes true!"
How can the concert be complete without the dual Donny and Marie singing "Country Rock and Roll" and "It Takes Two." For other must have songs, Marie also cheered fans with her best hit "Paper Roses"; Jimmy did his "Long Haired Lover from Liverpool."
Finally for the encore, the Osmonds presented "Love Me for a Reason" to end The Osmonds 50th Anniversary Tour.
