Taiwanese singer but also a songwriter, actor, director, and music and film
producer. He was born in January 18th in 1979. Jay Chou’s
composition combines traditional Chinese style and R&B. At the beginning of
his career of entertainment, he had a really hard time because not so many
people appreciated his talent. Fortunately, his friends and he entered in a

but he is also a successful actor. Jay portrayed Kato in a Hollywood movie, The Green Hornet.
I
started to listen to his music when I was in elementary school. My favorite
song was Can’t Express Myself from
his Fantasy album. Even though this
song is not the most famous song in this album, the lyrics and the style of
this song just touch my hard and it gave me a feeling of how hard to tell
someone that you really love her. Other songs also impressed me a lot. His Chinese
style music always surprised me especially for the lyrics. Vincent Fang is his
songwriter and accounts for most of the lyrics in Jay Chou’s album. Every time I
re-read the lyrics, it always gives me a different feeling and the use of
meaningful. Sometimes those lyrics were written in the form of ancient Chinese
history so that people are able to feel and experience history.
