China Central Television's popular "Same Song" concert series
reached Europe for the first time on Tuesday night.
With its long-standing format of star singers performing one by
one, the "Same Song" show in London featured such veterans as Fei
Xiang, George Lam, Zhu Zheqin and Ah Niu. The night's theme
highlighted the Beijing Olympics this summer, and several British
artists joined in the spirit to show off their voices.
The "Same Song" series has become a brand of China Central
Television, which rallies star performers to tour around China. It
has hit North America several times, and has been well received by
audiences, especially overseas Chinese.
