He was the national singing champion in Hong Kong 1984 with the song Fatherland, ousting more than ten thousand other contestants. He was signed by the then Polygram Records, now Universal Music Group. Although encouraged by a bright start, he was not yet able to achieve immediate supremacy in Cantopop, then dominated by 譚詠麟, 梅艷芳, Leslie Cheung and 陳百強. Cheung suffered a nosedive in his career in 1988 after a best-selling first two albums. That year he did not have a single song awarded in the annual TVB JSG. His subsequent sales record dipped and one of his albums in the late 1980s managed just around ten thousand in sales. The reason for the fall in his CD sales was partially attributed to his alcohol problem - he could get drunk 5 times a week. After disrupting his friend's birthday party while being drunk, Cheung vowed in public that he would not consume alcohol again till he was 40. He kept that promise.
His recording career subsequently returned to its track. Then, in 1991, with the song 每天愛你多一些 (Loving You More Everyday), his career took a massive upturn. The album, 真情流露True Love Expression in 1992, as well as the succeeding release, 愛火花Love Sparks in 1992, became the two most successful albums in Hong Kong history, achieving audited sales of over 400,000 copies in Hong Kong alone and turned Cheung into a superstar, paving the way for himself and his contemporaries, Andy Lau, Leon Lai and Aaron Kwok, to take Cantopop to even greater heights. Subsequent albums continue to be a hit like 我與你True Love Expression 1993, 餓狼傳說 Wolf Tale 1994 etc. Since then his career has grown from strength to strength, and Cheung has managed to garner thousands of fans overseas as well as numerous music awards both in Hong Kong and elsewhere, including the best-selling Chinese singer in the Worlds Music Awards. Cheung has also been elected one of the world's Ten Outstanding Young Persons.
Among his most famous songs are Amour, 只想一生跟你走 (Only Thinking of Going Through Life With You) and the everlasting 吻别 (Goodbye Kiss) which confirms his status as one, and many consider the pre-eminent member, of the Four Heavenly Kings of Cantopop. Goodbye Kiss, a Mandarin number, was also one of the best-selling albums of all time, achieving more sales in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia such as not attained before, with an astounding 5 million copies sold in 1993 alone, a record that has remained yet unbroken. Goodbye Kiss was also instrumental in helping Cheung to break into the mando-pop market, and it also prompted other Hong Kong singers who wanted to gain a wider market to follow suit, even though, to this very day, very few indeed have been able to approach Cheung's level of success.
His work on the ground-breaking cantonese musical, Snow, Wolf, Lake musical (1997), was also enthusiastically received by both audiences and critics. Cheung not only played the male lead, but was also the artistic director for this production. The female lead was played by Sandy Lam and they achieved 43 full-house performances at the gigantic Hong Kong Coliseum. In November 2004, Jacky and his concert manager, Florence Chan Suk-Fan, worked on a revised Mandarin version of Snow, Wolf, Lake so as to bring it to a wider audience. The estimated budget for this revised production was HK$100 million and the show premiered on 24 December 2004 in Beijing. The production subsequently toured China and other Asian destinations to huge acclaim.
Cheung won, for the umpteenth time, the Best Selling Cantonese Album Award in the Hong Kong IFPI Awards of 2005 with his live album, Jacky Live Performance. In the fast-changing scene of canto-pop, Cheung is able to maintain his popularity and sales power for more than 20 years after his debut, which is unparalleled in the history of Hong Kong pop music.
Cheung acted in many films, although singing has always been his priority. His versatility and acting skills have enabled him to play a lot of diverse parts. He received the Best Supporting Actor Golden Horse Award for his work in Swordsman (1990). He also received the Best Actor Award at the New Dehli Film Festival for his portrayal of the protagonist in July Rhapsody. His song Perhaps Love, which serves as the theme song for the multi-award-winning film Perhaps Love, also won the Best Song Award at the 2005 Hong Kong Film Awards.
He is married to May Lo with two daughters.
Cheung was named spokesperson for Hong Kong Disneyland in 2004. As the theme park's spokesperson, Cheung took part in a number of large-scale marketing events organized by The Walt Disney Company and Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, beginning by hosting a TV program, Magical World of Disneyland. [1] He also recorded a song for Hong Kong Disneyland, a multi-lingual song entitled One. The music video for One was filmed at Hong Kong Disneyland.
早已離開我
張學友 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
不心痛
就算相擁 也覺得冰凍 倦透的面容
何時會放鬆
離開吧 心早已離開我的戀人
沒法再夢一樣接近
請各自找那新的情人 幸福或遺憾
間奏
就算此刻 孤獨和快樂
祗有妳不明白 不知道
夜那麼深 那個可傾訴 若得寂寞
誰陪我最好
離開吧 心早已離開我的戀人
沒法再著緊
不再為誰痛哭
不再為誰失去後而孤獨
不再為誰痛哭
不再為誰失去後而孤獨
離開吧 心早已離開我的戀人
沒法再夢一樣接近
心已離開我的戀人
沒法再接近
不再為誰痛哭
不再為誰失去後而孤獨
不再為誰痛哭
不再為誰失去後而孤獨
離開吧 心早已離開我的戀人
沒法再夢一樣接近
不再為誰痛哭 不再為誰失去後而孤獨
心已離開我的戀人
沒法再接近
不再為誰痛哭 不再為誰失去後而孤獨
離開吧 心早已離開我的戀人
沒法再接近
不再為誰痛哭 不再為誰失去後而孤獨
The lyrics of 張學友's song 早已離開我 (Already Left Me) speak to the pain of a failed relationship and the need to let go and move on. The first stanza urges the ex-lover to stop regretting and to go with someone else, but at the same time, promises not to shed tears or feel pain anymore. The second stanza announces that the heart has already left, that dreams of being close again must be abandoned, and that the two partners should find new love and either be happy or regretful. The bridge emphasizes the singer's loneliness and the need for someone to talk to, despite the mixed emotions felt towards the ex-lover. Finally, the last stanza repeats the message of letting go, declaring that the heart can no longer be close and that there is no need to cry or feel lonely for anyone anymore.

别再可惜跟别人去吧
只要你不流泪
不心疼
