This guy is aweome.
Read his achievement, songs, and watch his MV. U’ll know why.
I put one of his song, that he sang on 2008 olympics. Which i found have a good meaning, good timing, and he sang it very perfectly.
(I put a translation with it). Qian Shan Wan Sui ( A Long Journey)
To me, his song really inspiring me, myself to write so many word, and story. I love his talent. I love to learn from him, he who really fight for something he has. His talent. He became a big star, not because luck, but really on a hard work. He is a very creative artist.
I’ll keep continue to enjoy his songs, his movies, his art on music.
He is jay chou. And no need so much word to describe him. We all knew him very well.
He deserve encore and applause.
Lyric
Translation Qian Shan Wan Shui
Over mountains and oceans, and countless of dark nights,
We wait, for that full moon
Not even the winds can bring me away from the edges of my dreams
I never tire
Orientalism isn’t shameful. Who’s number one?
Let us strive for perfection
My stand is firm, facing north Bursting to fame
Be prepared. This time, there’s no turning back
This feeling of working together is awesome!
We have the same chances
Our dreams stained with salty tears
We belong in the same world, connected by love
I chase my hopes and dreams
With a goal in mind I never tire, just waiting to exceed myself
Orientalism isn’t shameful. Who’s number one?
Let us strive for perfection
My stand is firm, facing north Bursting to fame
Be prepared. This time, there’s no turning back
This feeling of working together is awesome!
We have the same chances
Our dreams stained with salty tears
We belong in the same world, connected by love
I chase my hopes and dreams
With a goal in mind I never tire, just waiting to exceed myself
Forgetting about the past, I step forward in my journey

Biography
When I was little I played the piano, I sometimes felt happy and sometimes felt pressure. Later on in order to take the exam for music class in junior high (The teacher had class and was pretty) ps. The latter was my own reason. And so I learnt to play the cello, but afterwards I still didn’t go to take the exam. So I stopped playing the piano and cello for a period of time. But privately I still played some pop songs (It was at this time when I came into contact relatively more with pop songs). I started to grasp melody and combining chords. I felt really happy, relaxed and not so much pressure. Later I studied music in high school. And once again it renewed my contact with classical music. At times classical, at times pop. Actually I started to write songs when I was in junior high, it’s just that right now I think I must have been blind as an owl. Songs I thought were very diao back then, if you listen to it now, it might not be like what you thought it was like. I hope I can still admire myself in the future when I listen to this ‘Jay Album’, that I think is very diao right now.
