Stefanie Sun (simplified Chinese: 孙燕姿; traditional Chinese: 孫燕姿; pinyin: Sū… Read Full Bio ↴Stefanie Sun (simplified Chinese: 孙燕姿; traditional Chinese: 孫燕姿; pinyin: Sūn Yan Zī; born 23 July 1978 in Singapore) and also known in Teochew as Sng Ee-che or Sng Ee Tze (her birth name), is a Singaporean singer-songwriter. She has sold over 10 million copies of her albums during the span of her career thus far.
Stefanie Sun has an older sister three years her senior called Sng Yee-kia (simplified Chinese: 孙燕佳; traditional Chinese: 孫燕佳; pinyin: Sūn Yànjiā), and a younger sister six years her junior named Sng Ee-mei (simplified Chinese: 孙燕美; traditional Chinese: 孫燕美; pinyin: Sūn Yànměi).
Sun received her education at St Margaret's Secondary School, Raffles Girls' School and went on to attend St Andrew's Junior College She later attended university at Nanyang Technological University and attained a degree in Marketing. Her abilities were discovered by her music teacher, Lee Weisong at his music school. Sun made her first musical breakthrough in June 2000, following the release of her self-titled first album, Sun Yan Zi (孫燕姿) under Warner Music.
Stefanie's saccharine vocals and sincere personality have won the hearts of many, and her grounding as one of the most accomplished local artists in her native Singapore is firm. To date, she has won many awards, most notably at the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards, beating established singers, Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai. Among her followers, Sun has inspired and stirred other Singaporean artists (such as JJ Lin and Huang Yi Da) to expand overseas.
Sun does most of her recording, and conducts publicity events mainly in Taiwan, which comprises the majority of her fanbase. She also visits China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore frequently for promotional rounds where she is warmly received.
Most of her songs are sung in Mandarin, with several in English. In her first album, she sings Tori Amos's "Silent all These Years". Sun's ability to speak various languages is reflected in the songs she sings. In the song 天黑黑, (Dark skies) she sings in both Mandarin and her native Teochew. It is an adaptation of a traditional Teochew folksong which included the first six words in the original Teochew - "Thi-o·-o·, beh lo?h-hō·" - in the chorus.
She has won over 33 awards and other accolades for her music in the course of her career in Singapore, Taiwan, mainland China and Hong Kong (as well as at the pan-Asian MTV Asia Awards).
Yanzi sings Singapore's National Day Parade song, "One United People".
In 2002 and 2003 Sun also sang the official theme songs for Singapore's National Day Parade: "We Will Get There" (一起走到) and "One United People" (全心全意).
Sun is continually extending her influence in the Asian music industry. Sun collaborated with Mai Kuraki, a Japanese singer, on the last track of her To Be Continued... album. They collaborated yet again in 2003, this time on Mai Kuraki's If I Believe, released in July of 2003.
In late 2003, she decided to take a one year hiatus from making music, returning in late 2004 with a new album titled "Stefanie", intended to be a mirror of her debut album (self-titled as well, but in Chinese). This was to symbolise her return with a newcomer's attitude. She also started her own company, Make Music, during this sabbatical.
A Perfect Day was released on 2005, almost one year after the previous album Stefanie. She collaborated with some of the best musicians from Taiwan, namely MayDay (五月天) and F.I.R. in the song, 'First Day'.
Reviews of this new album has been mixed because of rumors in sales. But Stefanie had mentioned before that her priority is to make quality music, instead of over-commercialized products that sell well but have a lower level of artistic quality.
In 2006, Sun is in the midst of a regional concert tour. She has staged four full-house concerts at the renowned Hong Kong Colosseum. The performances have received rave reviews from the media as well as overwhelming support from fans. Sun also returned to Singapore in a much anticipated homecoming concert.

孫燕姿 Lyrics
Ai Cong Ling Kai Shi 思念爱出现那一小时 生命中第一颗宝石 打一把记忆的钥匙 我想再看一次 时间在爱情中写字 第一句写的是什么 回忆是不说谎的…
Bu Tong 地心引力的作用 我逃不开地球 走到世界另一端 没人认识我 街上的人 跟我那么的相同 却又那么的不同 多一点 多一点 自我…
Dong Shi 当你说我们都很自由 我知道你要你的自由 当你说爱情没有对错 我不会再问什么 不用说 不用想 不用愁 因为我一定会懂 你总…
Leave 车走走停停 路人潮拥挤 过往画面让心在下雨 我不会刻意回避 还爱你 念着念着却想哭泣 这世界有没有地方 能永远都晴朗 没…
Wo Bu Ai 你消失了 爱消失了 跟随的我去哪里 我想过要放弃自己 说放弃要放哪里 爱已经让我认识我自己 在眼泪流下的味道里 感觉不到…
Wo Xiang 我忘了 忘了多久 没见面 你还在为那件事而翻脸 我不能改变你的平衡点 总爱往 不快乐的一边陷 你给我的 那张地图 已经没…
Yan Shen 被现实推挤 梦想会变形 执着让人 觉得好吃力 我只是看着你 了解的神情 微笑扬起 又能继～～续 有时候爱是一种眼神 赶走…
Yi Yang De Xia Tian 窗外的雨刚刚停 午后气息 浓浓地才散去 迷迷糊糊张开眼 刚刚的梦 我似乎 在瞬间看见你 Oh my god 已经 不知多…
Zhi Lai Zhi Wang 我跟人群逆向 在街上 从道路的两旁 转小巷 在一栋被废弃的工厂墙上 Oh~ 涂鸦小时候单纯的愿望 穿白纱 当新娘 Hey…
Zuo Zhan It's my life~~ 我看到你跟自己作战 想不通就把念头整个翻过来 我跟自己开心的作战 战到了白头古老没有遗憾 …
