I give credit to Teresa Teng for much of my early inspiration. She has the rare voice that you never get tired of listening to, so I played her tapes all the time in my car and my walkman while in college.

It was one of the happiest days of my life to share the stage with her at a Double Ten party in Hong Kong and sing 2 duets in 1994. She told me that she had never sung in Chinese with a foreigner before, so it is a distinguished honor that will go with me to my grave.

I used to watch Wang Fei VCD's on my computer when I was first starting out. I'd hear the words and see the characters go by. Certainly, this was a lot less painful than some traditional character-studying methods.

Wow, you are the man! How has your singing career gone since?

Thank you all! I've been looking for some Chinese rock and she's good!

Does anyone have Wings of Light lyrics in Simplified chinese?

静静的按下电源开关 屏幕的色彩越来越亮

在虚拟的城市找一个 让心灵休息的地方

塑胶的键盘滴答发响 机器的声音温柔呼唤

抛弃了不完美的肉身 跃出了现实的天窗

张开透明翅膀 朝著月亮飞翔

搜寻最美一个 现世的天堂

越过世界尽头 跟随我的预感

乘著幻想的风 散落无数的光芒

高速的连线传送思想 跳跃的文字透露愿望

安慰的话比亲密拥抱 彷佛更真实的触感

屏幕的色彩依旧发亮 机器的声音继续呼唤

在网路的海洋找不到 让欲望躲藏的地方

神秘的通道即将开放 渴望的心情兴奋不安

抛弃了太疲倦的肉身 跃出了现实的天窗

张开透明翅膀 朝著月亮飞翔

搜寻最美一个 现世的天堂

飞过夜的尽头 拥抱你的温暖

乘著幻想的风 散落无数的光芒

I can't say I'm enamored of Faye Wong as a singer. She may be able to carry a tune, but her voice is far too small, which seems endemic of female Cantopop singers.

Unlike the others, Faye's voice can be really high and strong if she wanted to (when she sang other people's songs), but it's her style to sing with low volume.
