I met this guy....

I met this guy who has inspired me to pick up chinese all over again... Yang Chong Wei.

He was one of the contestants on Taiwan's Idol competition, and if not for the fact that he withdrew from the competition (he lied about his age in the registration form) which was splashed all over the news, i may not have gotten to know about him.

They reported about him for 2-3 days non stop. He is THAT popular here. In one of the news channel, they did a cross comparision between his singing and that of the original artistes' -- and boy, he is good.

My chinese is really crap. I dont understand much of what he is singing at all, but nevertheless, i can't help but feel goosebumps and a tinge of sadness swallowing me everytime he sings. So now, i am inspired to learn the words to the songs he sang. What a good way to learn chinese huh...

See his performances here:

Was there a Chong Gay in Teenage Textbook? Was that Kok Sean's best friend?
