恭喜！恭喜！这里还有三位得奖人，如果是你，请在7月2日之前联络教会同工晓薇领取你的新专辑（或挑选任何一张我的专辑你想要的。。。）

Congratulations! There are three more prize-winners here, if you are one of them, please contact church staff Xiao Wei and claim your latest GT Lim’s album or any one of my albums that you want (before July 2nd please)…

我知道大家听到这消息都很震惊和失望，但因你们都很爱与支持例外人，当你们晓得原因时，你们会为他们高兴，也会很乐意让古晋的签唱会改期。。。

首先真要谢谢The Spring的Mr. Ronald Ling通情达理，接受我们取消，也愿意再帮我找出另一个适当日期，所以请大家注意报告，签唱会还是会有的，改期罢了！

突如其来的好消息是，台湾观光局今年推展台湾旅游的负责人邀请例外人配合他们在本地的宣传！7月2日在吉隆坡’7月3日在槟城，与5566的许孟哲搭配演出，我相信你们都不希望例外人错过这个大好机会吧？而且，藉着这个合作，相信接下来例外人还有机会跟很多著名台湾艺人搭配演出！

所以，我只好忍痛取消7月2日古晋的签唱会，你们赞同我这样做吗？
报告完毕，谢谢！

I know you were all shocked and disappointed when you heard this news, but since you all love and support The Remnant very much, when you know the reason, you will be very happy for them and would be very willing to postpone the launch in Kuching…

First, I must thank Mr. Ronald Ling of The Spring for his kind understanding in accepting our cancellation and willingness to find another suitable date for the launch. So please keep watch for more announcement as there will still be a launch, just postponed in the meantime!

A sudden good news came to me, the person-in-charge of promoting Taiwan tourism this year under the Taiwan Tourism Board invited The Remnant to promote together with them here in Malaysia! July 2nd in KL and 3rd in Penang performing alongside 5566’s Xu Meng Zhe, I believe you all would not want The Remnant to miss this great opportunity, right? Also, through this cooperation, I believe The Remnant will get to perform with many other famous Taiwanese artistes too!

That is why I have to make the painful decision to cancel the July 2nd launch, do you agree with my decision?
End of announcement, thank you!

这到底是谁？这是我新专辑的主题。。。

Who is this really? This is the title for my new album…

感谢主，新专辑终于发行了。。。更重要的是，但愿这专辑能激励人更爱主，也吸引人归向主，阿们！

至于上次猜中主题的三位得奖者，记得在这星期六，6月26日之前联络晓薇(082-367740)，以领取你们的新专辑奖品哦！！

超过这星期就“没收”了，因不想耽搁晓薇的其他工作，也不要有东西留在办公室没交待。。。

另，若还有人想赢得新专辑的，这里还有一个机会，但只限两位先答对以下两个问题的，问题是：

“在我这一次到西马布道的多场聚会中，最常被“歌迷”和见过我的人问的两个关于我的问题是什么？”

请快留言，猜对那两个问题的前两名将获得林义忠最新专辑一张。。。

Praise the Lord, my new album is finally released… but more importantly, hopefully this album will encourage people to love God more, and attract many to turn to the Lord, Amen!

As for the three who won the prize for guessing the title right the other time, remember to contact Xiao Wei (082-367740) before this Saturday June 26th to claim your prize!!

After this Saturday, your prize will be “forfeited” as I don’t want to interfere with Xiao Wei’s other commitments and don’t want to keep stuff unattended to in the office…

Also, if there are people who still wish to win a prize, here is another opportunity, but only limited to the first two persons who answer the following question correctly, the question is:

“During my trip to West Malaysia this time, which are the TWO  most frequently asked questions about me from my “fans” or those who have seen me before?”

Quickly leave a comment, the first two to guess right will win a free CD of GT’s latest album…

有位好朋友听了我1998年后的专辑，说过好几次，最近听了我的最新专辑又再重复：“你应该感谢主，你的声带坏了！”
对这种评语该怎么回应呢？
原来她不是幸灾乐祸、落井下石，或讽刺。。。她只是实话实说！

我1998年后声带就“坏”了，因着牧养需要常讲道、大声带领祷告、赶鬼等等，喉咙透支。。。
过后老朋友若听到我的声音（包括今天）都会问我的喉咙或声音怎么了。。。
还记得当时灌录第七张专辑“是不是今天？”里的“钉痕的手”时，第一句都唱不到，以至于录到气馁坐在地上哭出来了！当时录音师等人都吓了一跳。。。

坐在地上那一刻我以为没办法再录唱片了，我与上帝有一些沟通。。。
我说声音、才华、恩赐都是属于他的，若他打算不再让我出唱片了，我愿意顺服。。。
过后我又能唱了，而且到如今还刚发了第十六张专辑“这到底是谁”！神真的很奇妙！虽然声音跟以往已不一样了。。。

今天我的声音是沙哑式的，以前的如有位台湾歌迷说的：“你以前的声音很干净，现在的很有经历（不懂是什么意思）。。。”
今天我没办法唱假音，所以很羡慕“例外人”的丘历，他说唱假音很容易。。。
但虽然如此，刚才第一位好朋友的评语：“你应该感谢主，你的声带坏了！”，可是她的真心话，她是真的觉得我“坏而变沙哑”的声音很好听，哈哈！

所以我也只能说，万事都互相效力，让我们凡事都感恩吧！

A very good friend of mine, after listening to my albums recorded after 1998, said more than once, and again after listening to my latest album : “You should thank God that your vocal cord is spoilt!”
How should I respond to a comment like that?
In actual fact, she was not rubbing salt into wound, neither was she being sarcastic… she was telling the truth!

My vocal cord was “damaged” after 1998, due to much preaching as a pastor, leading very loud prayer meetings, casting out demons etc, my throat was stretched to the limit…
After that, whenever my “old” friends hear me speaking (including today), they will surely ask whatever happened to my throat or voice…
I can still recall I was recording the song “Nail-scarred Hands” from my 7th album “Is It Today?” then, I could not even sing the first line! I felt totally defeated and sat on the floor and literally cried! The recording engineer and others were shocked…

At that moment on the floor, I thought I could never record any album again, I had some conversation with God then…
I said my voice, talent, giftings are all from Him, if He should decide that I not release any more album, I will obey…
After that I could sing again, and I have just released my 16th album “Who Is This Really?” last week! God is really amazing! However my voice has become different from the earlier days…

Today my voice is coarse, my voice before was as what a Taiwanese fan once said : “Your voice used to be very clean, now it sounds very experienced (whatever that means)…”
I can’t sing falsetto nowadays, so I’m very envious of Remnant’s Danny who said singing falsetto is peanuts to him…
Despite all that, the comment of that very good friend : “You should thank God that your vocal cord is spoilt!”, was really sincerely from her heart. She really thinks that my “damaged coarse” voice is very nice, haha!

So what can I say but all things work for good and give thanks in all circumstances!

昨天凌晨六点就到机场，从古晋飞吉隆坡，后又从吉隆坡机场包巴士到马六甲。。。

还好还有一点时间休息。。。

晚上8点布道会，感谢主的赐福，一切顺利。。。

舞蹈员呈献两支新舞蹈“谁说我不敢跳”和“随风飘”，很不错。。。

例外人很受欢迎哦。。。已经有新粉丝了。。。排队叫他们签名的都长过我的！唉。。。

昨晚推出我的新专辑，也首次献唱了专辑里的三首诗歌，感谢主，虽然有点紧张，但唱得还好，拍子都对也没唱错词(新歌嘛)。。。

再过15分钟(7:30am)就要再坐巴士到下一站巴生了，暂时就给你们报告到此。。。

对不起，暂时还没照片上载。。。再聊。。。

We went to the airport at 6am yesterday, flying from Kuching to KL, then we proceeded to Malacca in a chartered bus…

We did have a little rest…

The concert started at 8pm, thank God everything went well…

The dancers presented two new dances “Dare Me To Jump” and “Carried By The Wind” and they did well…

The Remnant were really popular… they have new fans now… and their autograph queue was longer than mine! Sigh…

I launched my latest album last night and presented three songs from that album for the first time, thank God though I was a bit nervous, I sang alright, in tempo and did not forget the words (new songs you see)…

After 15 minutes (7:30am), we’ll be boarding our bus for our next stop in Klang, so will stop my report here temporarily…

Sorry, no photo to upload yet… till then…

哈哈哈哈！现在我终于可以跳了！！
Hahahaha! Now I can finally jump!!

赶着这礼拜五(6月11日)在马六甲的首场布道会推出最新专辑，所以设计师也被我逼得无可奈何。。。
昨晚我们俩人商讨至凌晨1点半，终于把封面设计都解决了，真是可怜了John!
John Huang 是 Yolk Studio 的老板，遇到我他可辛苦了，因每次都要他最后一分钟赶工。。。John，真的要说对不起和谢谢你！！

可能你要问说我为什么总等到最后一分钟呢？唉。。。就是太忙、太多事要顾啊！基本上，我把教会牧养排第一，所以我是先牧师才歌手；然后从去年一整年到现在都还在忙“例外人”的工作，所以自己的专辑的反而耽搁和拖延了。。。

但无论如何，封面设计终于解决了，昨晚凌晨就寄去吉隆坡给我的印刷师和专辑翻录师，Jammie，另一个遇到我就头痛的朋友。。。
Jammie 也是从工作关系认识，变成朋友，他也后来信了主，成为弟兄。。。我也要跟他说：对不起，谢谢你！！

接下来，就等你们支持了。。。不止买给自己，还要送人哦！哈哈。。。但我保证你一定会满意，封面、音乐、歌曲、风格等等。。。都很有创意和新鲜感哦！

愿神借这专辑“这到底是谁？”赐福你！阿们！

Rushing to release my album during my first concert in Malacca on this Friday (June 11th), so my designer was driven up the wall by me too…
We discussed till 1:30am last night and finally the cover design issues were all settled, really pity John!
John Huang is the boss of Yolk Studio, meeting me must be a headache to him, because each time I ask him to rush for me at the last minute… John, I really must say sorry and thank you!!

May be you would ask why do I have to wait till the very last minute each time? Sigh… well, too busy, too many things to care of… Basically, I put church ministry first, so I am first a pastor, then a singer; furthermore since last whole year till now I have been busy with “Li Wai Ren (The Remnant)”‘s work, so my own album was neglected and delayed…

No matter what, the design is completed, and sent to KL straight at that time to Jammie, the person in charge of printing and duplication, he is another friend who regards me as his headache I think…
I got to know Jammie from work too, we became friends and he has also received the Lord since, and so we are brothers now… I must say to him too : Sorry and thank you!!

Next, it is waiting for your support… don’t just buy for yourselves, give to others too! Haha… but I guarantee you will be satisfied, from the design to the music and songs and styles… they are all creative and refreshing!

May God bless you through this new album “Who Is This Really?”. Amen!

这有型有款的跳姿也不知跳了多少次才拍出一点美感的。。。
本来我都要放弃了，可是摄影师Philip (Phil’s Art studio) 坚持我再试多几次！
也真谢谢 Philip 的专业和耐心了。。。
I had to jump many many times to finally capture some “beauty” in this stylish jumping pose…
I actually wanted to give up but Philip of Phil’s Art studio, my photographer persisted and asked me to try a few more times!
Really thank Philip for his prefessionalism and patience too…

今天在教会首播了新专辑里其中一首歌曲，是一首深情对唱情歌。。。但那跟林义忠对唱的女子是谁啊？跟林义忠有什么关系？

怎样？她歌声不错吧？。。。很多人都很喜欢这首歌，而这只是15首好歌里其中一首哦！

大制作、大成本的专辑即将在6月27日假古晋蒙福教会发行，赶快跟组长预购哦！

西马的朋友，6月11-13之间都会先后在马六甲、巴生和吉隆坡发行。。。不要错过哦！！

I played a song from my latest album as a preview in church today, it’s a romantic duet… but who was that lady singing with GT? What relationship has she got with GT?

How? Not bad huh, her voice?… Many liked the song, but this is only one out of 15 good songs!

Big production, big costs, the album will be released soon on June 27th at Blessed Church Kuching, quickly make a pre-order with your leader!

For West Malaysian friends, the album will be released between June 11th-13th in Malacca, Klang and KL respectively… don’t miss it!!

我决定用“这到底是谁？”为我新专辑的主题，这也是我最起初的感动，最后也回归这个选择。。。原因何在？
请购买我的新专辑你就知道了，哈哈。。。

I have decided to use “Who Is This Really?” as my new album’s title, it was also my original choice right from the start and in the end I returned to this choice again… as to why?
Please purchase my new album and you will know why, haha…

恭喜！！猜对主题的有几位罢了，但我也只能送前面三位，他们就是 ：1. Winnie Bong    2. Renee Tan    3. Chieng

请在6月27日之前向同工晓薇报告（Tel : 082-367740），她就会留一份我的新专辑给你们哦！

至少有三个人猜对。。。到底是谁呢？而我也考虑给别人“最佳留言”奖，那又是谁呢？

我也再设立另一个“比赛”让更多人有机会得奖。。。？那又是什么考题呢？

At least THREE people guessed my new title right… who are they? And I’m also considering awarding someone with “Best Comment” award, and who could that be?

I will also set another competition to give more people an opportunity to win some prize…? What would the next question be?
