2001Ã¢ÂÂ02: NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c (Solar eclipse)

In 2002, HÃÂ TrÃ¡ÂºÂ§n and musician NgÃ¡Â»Âc ÃÂÃ¡ÂºÂ¡i performed NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c (Solar eclipse) live show throughout Vietnam to promote their album, also named NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c (Solar eclipse). Songs on the album were written by NgÃ¡Â»Âc ÃÂÃ¡ÂºÂ¡i and with lyrics from poems of Vi ThÃÂ¹y Linh. Composer ÃÂÃ¡Â»Â BÃ¡ÂºÂ£o also contributed, along with singers Minh Anh Ã¢ÂÂ Minh ÃÂnh (2M band). The live show was created by choreographer QuÃ¡Â»Â³nh Lan, vision director ViÃ¡Â»Ât TÃÂº and the stage decorator TrÃ¡ÂºÂ§n VÃÂ© HoÃÂ ng (HÃÂ 's brother).

NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c faced a number of issues upon release. There was a copyright dispute between HÃÂ and HÃ¡Â»Âng Nhung for the song "Det tam gai" (Weaving Tam Gai). In December 2001, the Performance Administration raised concern that the lyrics on the album were such that they may "cause bad effects to the culture and ethic of Vietnamese music" (Mr. LÃÂª Nam Ã¢ÂÂ Director of the Administration). Therefore, the album was delayed, so that the artist could revise the track listing and make amendments to some lyrics.

After settling the above matters, the show took place in April 2002, and then NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c, the album, was released in May. It includes seven songs: "Nghi ngÃ¡ÂºÂ¡i" (Shadow of doubt), "ÃÂÃ¡Â»Â«ng hÃÂ¡t tÃÂ¬nh ca du mÃ¡Â»Â¥c nÃ¡Â»Â¯a" (Don't sing the nomad's love song), "PhÃÂa ngÃÂ y nÃ¡ÂºÂ¯ng tÃ¡ÂºÂ¯t" (Other side of sunset), "DÃ¡Â»Ât tÃ¡ÂºÂ§m gai" (Weaving Tam Gai), "TiÃ¡ÂºÂ¿c nuÃ¡Â»Âi" (Regret), "Ã¡ÂºÂ¢o Ã¡ÂºÂ£nh" (Illusion), "NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c" (Solar eclipse). Two songs "MÃÂ¡" (Dreaming) and "TÃ¡Â»Â± tÃÂ¬nh" were removed, reducing the album from originally nine to now seven songs, and "CÃÂ¢y nÃ¡Â»Â¯ tu" was changed to the new name of "Ã¡ÂºÂ¢o Ã¡ÂºÂ£nh". NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c was promoted as a concept album, with a completed story of seven songs expressing seven stories told by a girl in love expressing feelings of desperation, doubt, regret and obsession.

Right after its release, NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c shocked Vietnam's music scene with its strange and new trend, including lyrics, melody, performance art and arrangement. The show became a special music event, and was then voted by presses as one of the most important cultural phenomena of 2002, a landmark of innovation in music in terms of its original style and performance in Vietnam. In addition, the existence of NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c oriented the music audiences in Vietnam to be interested in music harmony, arrangement and mix of an album. NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c was also an important step in the career of HÃÂ TrÃ¡ÂºÂ§n, causing prominent development of her style: Stronger, Special and Diversity. As from NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c, HÃÂ was called as one of 4 divas of Vietnamese music.

Nevertheless, after success of the first show, dispute arose among the members of the show, NgÃ¡Â»Âc ÃÂÃ¡ÂºÂ¡i Ã¢ÂÂ TrÃ¡ÂºÂ§n Thu HÃÂ Ã¢ÂÂ Vi ThuÃ¡Â»Â³ Linh. As a result, after NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c 1, TrÃ¡ÂºÂ§n Thu HÃÂ announced to the press that she had quit Nhat thuc. NgÃ¡Â»Âc ÃÂÃ¡ÂºÂ¡i continued with his own NhÃ¡ÂºÂt thÃ¡Â»Â±c 2 in 2003, without HÃÂ TrÃ¡ÂºÂ§n and Vi ThuÃ¡Â»Â³ Linh, but there were many stars of Vietnam such as: Thanh Lam, HÃ¡Â»Â QuÃ¡Â»Â³nh HÃÂ°ÃÂ¡ng, Linh Dung, TÃÂ¹ng DÃÂ°ÃÂ¡ng, KhÃÂ¡nh Linh, NgÃ¡Â»Âc KhuÃÂª... However, "Nhat Thuc 2" live concert and the album (sold at special price of VND 6000, equal to about US$0.5 at the time) was not as successful as the first one.
