Chou, who has been a well-known pop singer for 15 years, combines Chinese and Western musical elements in his songs and has influenced great numbers of Chinese people born in the 1980s and 1990s.

For his first album, Jay, released in 2000, he wrote all the music for the 10 songs and the lyrics for two of them. The album was a hit in Taiwan and on the Chinese mainland.

He has since released almost an album each year, including Fantasy in 2001, November's Chopin in 2005, On The Run in 2007, all of them loved by fans.

Liu remembers how she felt when she first heard the album Jay during a music class as a middle school student.

"My classmates and I were all fascinated by the lyrics and tunes from an unknown singer," Liu recalled. "We couldn't help falling in love with his songs－they were so different from any pop songs we had heard before."
