Kay Tse (Traditional Chinese: 謝安琪 / Simplified Chinese: 谢安琪) (born March 13… Read Full Bio ↴Kay Tse (Traditional Chinese: 謝安琪 / Simplified Chinese: 谢安琪) (born March 13, 1977) is a Hong Kong pop singer. She was a newcomer to the music industry in 2005, and is known for her versatile vocal range and styles, including pop, alternative, rock, jazz, and soul. Since 2008, she has become one of the most popular and critically acclaimed female Hong Kong singers.
In 2002, whilst still a university student majoring in American Studies at the University of Hong Kong, Kay Tse entered a university singing competition and won First Prize. She also entered an inter-schools singing competition in 2003 and made the final five, impressing one of the judges so much that he offered her a professional contract with his small music label. At the time she was working as a piano teacher.
Tse's debut Cantonese album "Kay One" was released on May 6, 2005 to an unsuspecting Hong Kong public. The album includes 2 non-Cantonese songs, an English version of 《我歌…故我在》 ("The One and Only") and a Mandarin version of 《姿色份子》named "Plastic Roses" (《塑膠玫瑰》).
Initially, due to the dearth of love songs in her albums, Tse was not popular in the mainstream Cantopop market. Nevertheless, many music industry insiders have tipped her singing ability to have big potential (despite her plain looks) and regard her as one of a new breed of 'non-idol' singers who sell their singing ability rather than their looks.
Tse had several hits in 2005. These include the songs:
《姿色份子》, a fast catchy pop tune mocking the Asian dieting trend;
《我歌…故我在》, a slow ballad expressing a singer's feelings on the stage;
《臭男人》, a funky song that makes fun of different types of men;
《開卷快樂》, a fast Jazz song satirizing the tabloid magazines;
《跟我走》, an encouraging, grateful song accompanied by a touching music video to thank her loyal fans who like and follow her music even though she doesn't release many love songs to cater to the mainstream.
On January 1, 2006, Tse won the Bronze Award for CRHK 2005 Best Newcomer, along with Ivana Wong and Janice Vidal who won Silver and Gold respectively.
Despite not appearing in public for most of 2007 for maternal leave, Tse was still one of the top three female singers with the most airplay on the radio.
In 2008, 囍帖街 sung by Kay Tse became the undisputed Cantonese song of the year and has won almost every major award in several categories (including best song, best melody, best lyrics, and best album) for that year in Hong Kong, China, and overseas. Thus, Kay Tse also won the coveted Hong Kong Four Stations Media Award for being the artist who won the most awards in 2008. Consequently, her popularity rose sharply and she has since become one of the top female Hong Kong singers in just a few years.
In 2010 and 2013, Tse released Mandarin albums targeting mainland China and Taiwan markets. She is one of the few newcomers in the 21st century to successfully reach audiences outside of her native Hong Kong, and is now considered one of the top artists from China/Hong Kong region for both Mandarin and Cantonese songs. She was runner-up in a China national singing contest. She once represented China/HK in an Asia-wide concert that took place in South Korea.
Since 2006, Tse has won the CASH Golden Sail Music Awards for best female performance four times.

謝安琪 Lyrics
c餐 诱人灯火似星 要让眼睛入性 教这都市绚烂繁盛 但是半醉光景 背后潜藏能量魅影 嘀嗒声已在鸣 倒数中扎醒 若未能及时临…
勢不兩立 Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh 光影對立 人與鬼兵與賊 身份對立 明暗在對望 沒抉擇 千色對立 誓要分清黑與白 是…
十倍奉還 十倍奉還 唱：謝安琪 曲：周博賢 詞：周博賢 編：周博賢 監：周博賢 人們說渴望女友像我般吸引 有著性格像好施的女…
家明 他出發找最愛 今天也未回來 途中那些細節 沒有太多的記載 但為什麼不放開 竟吊在懸崖旁邊盼待 難道信尚有份禮物 等他去…
正視愛 正視愛 唱：謝安琪 曲：謝安琪 詞：謝安琪 編：Cousin Fung@goldEN 監：Cousin Fung@g…
獨家村 獨家村 唱：謝安琪 曲：Christopher Chak 詞：林夕 編：Ted Lo 監：Alvin Leong …
篋神 日夜行動轉動路上全力去衝 像是奇異引力運動學副作用 陸上全部信奉想參拜路已封 箱子沿著鐵路大量為你轉送 頻撲如黃蜂勤工…
雞蛋與羔羊 寢室的花香 妻子的瀟湘 過去美好片段夢裡湧上 監倉的窗 鎖鏈的聲響 告訴我知往日成為絕唱 惺忪醉過後還信 生活又如常 …
