Joey Yung Cho-Yee (Traditional: 容祖兒; Simplified: 容祖儿; Pinyin: Róng Zǔ'ér), … Read Full Bio ↴Joey Yung Cho-Yee (Traditional: 容祖兒; Simplified: 容祖儿; Pinyin: Róng Zǔ'ér), born in June 16th, 1980 in Hong Kong, is a rising and very popular female Cantopop singer and actress. She is an artist of the Emperor Entertainment Group since 1999. She won the prestigious "Most Popular Female Singer Award" on Jade Solid Gold in 2003 with the help of her hit, "My Pride" and won the same prize always again between 2004-2007 thus emerging as one of the premier Cantonese singers in the world.
In 1995, at the age of 15, Joey was participating in many singing contests, including the Big Echo Karaoke Singing Contest, in which she was given the opportunity to be an artist of Go East Entertainment Co. Ltd.. However, her talent did not win the recognition of the company. Go East ended the contract with Joey soon after the song 'The First Time I Want to be Drunk', which is the theme song of a movie, was recorded. The song is Joey's only song produced by Go East.
Afterwards, she continued with school while also working as a clerk and helping her mother in managing the business of a fashion boutique. She was later introduced to Golden Pony Records Co. Ltd. by an ex-colleague of Go East. Not long after she joined the company, it withdrew its business in Hong Kong. Joey's singing career was once again terminated. A couple of years after, she followed Roman Tam, the godfather of Canto-pop, to learn singing.
Joey as a Newcomer (1999-2000)
In 1998/1999, Joey joined Emperor Entertainment Group. Her talent was appreciated and she was sent abroad for training to enhance her singing skills in 1999.
As this was also the same company her mentor Roman was in, she also toured with Roman which helped her gain experience as a performer.
On 29th September 1999, her first EP was released, officially debuting as a singer. The album charted on the IFPI Album Charts (based on sales) for 23 weeks, breaking the record for the most conseuctive weeks on the IFPI album chart in Hong Kong, and had sold 130,000 copies in Hong Kong alone. In the later awards ceremonies held by different media organizations, she won lots of newcomer awards together with Cecilia Cheung, who was regarded as a formidable adversary of Joey Yung.
In January 2000, Joey's apartment was set ablaze. In the same year, she made her appearance in her first movie 'Winner Takes All' and her first TV drama series 'The Green Hope'. This year, she released two CDs, including her second EP, "Don't Miss", and her first studio album, "Who Will Love Me". She, at the same time, became the spokesperson of many brands, like the Four Seas, the Red Cross, Netvigator, etc. Her career had flourished with her increasing exposure in public. She held her first concert at the prestigious Hong Kong Coliseum, titled 'Joey Yung's See You Everywhere Live Concert', in the same year.
Ups and Downs of a Rising Pop Princess (2001-2002)
In 2001, she released her first compilation album 'Love Joey', which later on became the Best Selling Album of the Year. This is considered very impressive for a singer that has been around for less than 2 years. She then released two Cantonese albums, "All New Summer Holiday" and "Solemn on Stage". In November, she held her second live concert and first concert series, '~H20+ Solemn on Stage Joey Yung's Live in Concert 2001' at the Hong Kong Coliseum and began her singing career in Taiwan after she released her first Mandarin album 'Honestly'. By the end of the year though, her career crisis arose because of the strain in her vocal cords and the criticism from the public of being plump.
In 2002, she was approved by her company to take a rest while learning dancing and make-up abroad. After two months of rest, she came back to Hong Kong and released her Canto-pop album 'Something About You'. She then became the spokesperson of Nissin and Nikon. At the end of the year, she released her second collection album 'Love Joey II'. She was said to have had plastic surgery and sex relationships with different businessmen in exchange for some of these job opportunities, but this rumor did not diminish her newfound stardom.
Breakthrough as the newest Pop Queen (2003)
In 2003, her song 'My Pride', which is also the theme song of the TV commercial of Banyan Garden developed by Cheung Kong (Holdings) Limited, became very popular and well-known among the public. This song was awarded 'The Most Popular Song in the Nation' by RTHK. In the same year, she became the spokesperson of a slimming parlour. In the fad of slimming in Hong Kong, Joey also had her body slimmed and presented herself as a sexy image. She held her third concert 'Joey Yung Live Show Up!' in Hong Kong Coliseum, which pushed her career to even higher height, and she was soon named as 'Canto-pop Queen of Hong Kong'. At the end of the year, she was awarded the 'Most Popular Female Singer' in all prize-giving ceremonies held by the media. She was the second youngest singer in history to have won this prize (youngest being Anita Mui. She also won another prestigious female singer award, the "Best Female Singer Gold" award at the CRHK Music Awards, and was the youngest singer to ever win this award. Following this, she began her world-wide tour including Canada, Australia, USA, Mainland China, Macau, Malaysia with her "Show Up concert" throughout 2004 to 2005.
Hong Kong's Reigning Pop Queen (2004-2006)
In 2004, Joey continued her sexy image in her CD album 'Nin9 2 5ive' and her first photo album 'The Real Joey, Glamour in London'. Her photo album was greatly accepted by the public and ran out of stock shortly after its release. Her second album in 2004, 'Give Love A Break', was greatly appreciated by the public. At the end of the year, she won the 'Most Popular Female Singer' prize of TVB and "My Favourite Female Singer" presented by the Commercial Radio, and many other honorable awards.
Around Christmas, a Cantonese remake of 'Chihuahua' (a song previously released in English by DJ Bobo) was sung by Joey as part of a Coca-Cola advertising campaign which included a portrayal of her buying a can of it.
In the year 2004, she had won more than 20 awards and received the highest honor award again: The Media Award, which is given to the singer who accumulated the most awards from the 4 music awards ceremonies in Hong Kong.
In 2005, Joey released her compilation album, Love Joey III, and a Canto-pop album, 'Bi-Heart'. Advertising her concert, Reflection of Joey's Live, which spanned a period of eight days in October and November, Joey exhibited a very sexy image in the poster. The theme song of the concert, 好事多為, was arranged and keyboarded by a Korean composer, which is a rare practice in Hong Kong. Funded by Sony Ericsson, EEG found the top production crew to produce the MTV of the theme song. Unlike the concerts she held before, she had invited many guests in this concert. Besides, she had added more dancing elements in the concert, which are greatly favoured by the public. After the concert, Joey suffered from sore throat owing to the strain in her vocal cord. Several days after, she worked without chatting with other people with a view to let her vocal cord relax. Under the heavy workload, she hardly managed to spend several days receiving acupuncture treatment in Nanjing to have her voice restored. Recommended by a producer Joey then started to take singing lessons with popular entertainment voice coach Christine Samson. On Christmas Day, in the prize-giving ceremony held by the Metro Radio Hong Kong, she won eight awards, being the artist to have gained the most prizes.
Sales of all her CDs reached at least 5 million copies in 2004, which is impressive, as Canto-pop CD sales are usually about 100,000 copies. She has also won IFPI Best Selling Singer Awards since she started her career. It is also estimated that the total income from field of advertisements in 2004 was about HK $10 million. In 2005, she has purchased two connecting flats named The Legend at Jardine's Lookout, Hong Kong for HKD $40 million. It is not surprising that she has invested since she has earned more than HKD $60 million last year.
In January 2006, she has received, again, many awards such as the most popular female singer award for the consecutive third time. She has also won other awards such as Golden song etc. During the Hong Kong IFPI record sales awards 2005, Joey once again for the 2nd year in a row, was the best selling female artist. Two of her albums (Love Joey II and Joey Yung X Hacken Lee The Music Is LIVE 903 id Club Concert) were of the top 10 selling albums. Following the success of the 8-night "Reflection's of Joey's Live Concert," her concert CD/VCD/DVD combined to have a sales of triple platinum (120,000 copies), quite a rare accomplishment in today's Cantopop Industry.
On Feb. 27, 2006, Joey released another album, 'Ten Most Wanted', her all-new cantonese album. More time had been put in the production of this CD than any other CD Joey's produced. Joey said that this album was to try new music styles, and worked with different musicians. One of the musicians behind this CD is well praised by Joey, Mavis Faan, who wrote the music of two of the ten songs out of this CD, Get Fit with Jane Fonda and Torn Tongue (lyrics of both songs written by Yiu Fai Chow). Both songs are fast songs that are completely different from the previous Joey songs.
Close Up (2007)
At the end of December, Yung released her Cantonese album 'Close Up'. Songs include "Burst of Joy & Beautiful Flowers" (her first collaboration with Hanjin), her biggest hit last year "Splendid Unexpected Meeting", and her third and latest plug, "One Love One Lesson". The album has gotten really good response from the general public, and the first version is out of stock at online CD stores like Yesasia, and many people has reported that it was sold out in stores all over Hong Kong as well. She released the second version on the 26th of January, and it included a bonus DVD with the music videos for "Splendid Unexpected Meeting" and "Burst of Joy & Beautiful Flowers".

Joey was touched by all the singers and audience that came to help her make the musical possible (by performing in it), the singers include: Anthony Wong, at17, Hins Cheung, Yumiko Cheng, Vincent Wong, and Sun Boy'z. She hoped to do "Safari" again if possible in the future.

Glow & In Motion (2008)
Joey held her sixth concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum during the beginning of 2008. The concert was entitled "StarLight", and the theme of the concert was "light". Joey performed a number of dance numbers as well as her famous ballads. The Power Medley, which was a 20-minute intense dance medley of her fast songs, was especially well received. The concert spanned over 10 days, proving her popularity as Hong Kong's most popular female singer. The concert was highly praised, and thus led to a Part II of her Starlight Concert, which spanned over 4 nights, making Starlight 2008 a 14-day concert. In mid Feb, Joey traveled to New York to attend dance lessons, in hope to further improve her dancing skills, and strengthen her reputation as the new dance queen.

This includes a Cantonese album and a Mandarin album, titled 'A Time For Us' and 'Very Busy' respectively. Her 10th year anniversary mini-concert "Perfect Ten Live" was held on 4 October and tickets for this concert were sold out within seven minutes. Unlike her past concerts that spanned for days or even weeks, Yung performed only two shows in one day. "Perfect Ten Live" was more a intimate and exclusive concert, and was held at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre's Grand Theatre, where Yung won a championship in her first major singing contest in 1995. The "Perfect Ten Live Boxset" was released in December, being divided into two versions, the normal and the delux version. The normal version included two DVDs for the concert, the Perfect 10 Documentary and a photo album consisting of 20 or so pages; while in the delux version, two more CDs of the "Perfect Ten Live" would also be found and the photo album in this version would also include more photos.
In late 2009, Yung performed in her 5th concert, "Music Is Live", with Eason Chan and received commendations from different medias. Yung won the Media Award for the 3rd time that year, having previously won the award in 2003 and 2004 (i.e. Yung won the most number of awards in the four major music awards shows in 2009).
On 29 January, the 10th Anniversary EP known as Joey Ten was released together with the 'Joey Ten' Boxset. This EP consists of 10 different covers (9 for Version 1 and 1 for Version 2) and includes five songs. The Joey Ten Boxset includes a photo album, stickers, a thank you card from Yung, a Chofy bookmark, a comic book, a Chofy USB, a DVD and the new EP. The first and second plugs from the EP received very great results in the four major media, one getting a No.1 from all four of them while the other gets No.1 from three of them.

2011–present
For the first couple of months in 2011, Yung will travel the world and go on her first major break since 2002. She had earlier stated that in 2011 she will focus her time on the Mandarin market, recording a new Mandarin album and doing promotions in Taiwan and Mainland China.
Amsterdam-based European Chinese concert organizers Orientouch have confirmed that she will be performing a show in London, England on 26 April 2011 at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall, making it her first concert in Europe. This will make Yung the first female Chinese singer to perform at the Royal Albert Hall, and the third Chinese singer overall after Eason in 2010 and her mentor Roman Tam in 1979.
Yung will also star in a big budget film titled Diva produced by Chapman To. The story will revolve around a successful pop diva, which To cites is the reason why he chose Yung. In an interview, he stated "a movie about a diva obviously requires a diva to play the main role." He does not agree with the general consensus that Yung is a bad actress, and hopes that the film can show her true acting potential.

想不起 怎么会病到不分好歹
连受苦都甜美
我每日捱著 不睬不理
但却捱不死
又去痴缠你
难道终此一生 都要这么
不可争一口气
很谦卑 只不过是我太过爱你
连自尊都忘记
跌到极麻木 只好相信
又再爬得起
就会有转机
若我不懂憎你 如何离别你
亦怕不会飞
由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间
恨我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡
付清 账单
平静的对你热度退减
一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚
大概也够我 送我来回地狱又折返人间
春天分手 秋天会习惯
苦冲开了便淡
很谦卑 只不过是我太过爱你
连自尊都忘记
跌到极麻木 只好相信
又再爬得起
就会有转机
若我不懂憎你 如何离别你
亦怕不会飞
由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间
限我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡
付清 账单
平静的对你热度退减
一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚
大概也够我 送我来回地狱又折返人间
春天分手 秋天会习惯
苦冲开了便淡
说甚么再平反
只怕被迫一起 更碍眼
往后这半年间
只爱自己 虽说不太习惯
毕竟有限 就当 过关
由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间
恨我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡
付清 账单
平静的对你热度退减
一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚
大概也够我 送我来回地狱又折返人间
春天分手 秋天会习惯
苦冲开了便淡
连受苦都甜美
我每日捱著 不睬不理
但却捱不死
又去痴缠你
难道终此一生 都要这么
不可争一口气
很谦卑 只不过是我太过爱你
跌到极麻木 只好相信
又再爬得起
就会有转机
若我不懂憎你 如何离别你
亦怕不会飞
由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间
恨我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡
付清 账单
平静的对你热度退减
一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚
大概也够我 送我来回地狱又折返人间
春天分手 秋天会习惯
苦冲开了便淡
很谦卑 只不过是我太过爱你
连自尊都忘记
跌到极麻木 只好相信
又再爬得起
就会有转机
若我不懂憎你 如何离别你
亦怕不会飞
由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间
限我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡
付清 账单
平静的对你热度退减
一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚
大概也够我 送我来回地狱又折返人间
春天分手 秋天会习惯
苦冲开了便淡
说甚么再平反
只怕被迫一起 更碍眼
往后这半年间
只爱自己 虽说不太习惯
毕竟有限 就当 过关
由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间
恨我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡
付清 账单
平静的对你热度退减
一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚
大概也够我 送我来回地狱又折返人间
春天分手 秋天会习惯
苦冲开了便淡
The lyrics of "心淡" by Joey Yung reflect a relationship that is on its last legs, where the singer is slowly losing her feelings for her partner. The first verse, "想不起 怎么会病到不分好歹" ("I can't remember how I got so sick that I can't tell right from wrong"), refers to the confusion and uncertainty that the singer feels. She is willing to suffer for the relationship, but it has become too painful to continue. She ignores her partner, but she cannot ignore her feelings for him.
The chorus, "由这一分钟开始计起 春风秋雨间 恨我对你以半年时间 慢慢的心淡 付清账单 平静的对你热度退减 一天一点伤心过 这一百数十晚" ("Starting from this moment, between the spring breeze and autumn rain, I hate myself for slowly losing feelings for you over half a year. We've settled our accounts, and I'm calmly reducing my warmth towards you. I'll be sad little by little every day and over the next hundred or so nights") reflects the singer's realization that the relationship is ending. She is both sad and relieved that it is coming to an end. The line "就会有转机" ("there will be a turning point") is hopeful and suggests that the singer will move on from this difficult time in her life.
Overall, this song is a powerful reflection of the complexities of human emotions, especially in the context of love and loss.

又再爬得起 就會有轉機
若我不懂憎你 如何離別你 亦怕不會飛

恨我對你以半年時間 慢慢的心淡
付清 賬單 平靜的對你熱度退減
一天一點傷心過 這一百數十晚
大概也夠我 送我來回地獄又折返人間
春天分手 秋天會習慣 苦衝開了便淡

苦冲开了便淡，
时间是最好的证明…
还可以在一起的，再去争取吧…
不能在一起了的，放下吧…
放下的不是心中的那个他，而是你自己。
能做的，我已经做了…也告白过了…可惜，渐渐的觉得自己喜欢他喜欢的好卑微…
一次又一次留的眼泪，
便是一点又一点的放下对他的感觉。
