Janice is emerging as one of the new singers in Hong Kong and Asia. Her music style is a mixture of Cantopop, Jazz and R&B. She performs her songs in English, Cantonese and Mandarin and will be performing songs in Korean in the near future.
Before becoming an artist herself, Janice had always enjoyed singing. Her voice came to the attention of renowned producer Mark Lui by chance when she recorded the backing vocals for one of mega star Leon Lai's songs in 2004. Janice obviously left a favourable impression on Lui, as upon Lui's stumbling across her voice he informed Leon, who in turn decided to offer Janice a contract with AMusic (東亞唱片), a newly-formed record label where both Leon Lai and Mark Lui were major investors (Leon transferred himself to Amusic as well). As a result Janice became the first newcomer to sign for AMusic in 2004.
Belonging to the same music label as Leon Lai, Janice first caught the media's attention days after Christmas of 2004 by covering in English one of Leon's essential tunes "Unspoken Words of Deep Feelings" (情深說話未曾講) on radio. The cover song quickly become a hit. Some fans initially thought it was an overseas singer who was covering one of Leon's classic hits, but were surprised to find out the singer was an unknown Hong Kong rookie. Since it was Christmas in Hong Kong at the time, Janice's first song was swiftly followed by a Christmas version of another Leon Lai cover "不可一世" (this time in Cantonese). The Cantonese cover of "Unspoken Words of Deep Feelings" (情深說話未曾講) was aired on radio in Spring 2005 for the first time. She learned English when she was in the United States.
By April 2005, Janice had become known as a mysterious singer who sung several cover versions of Leon Lai's songs, but whose face has never been shown in public. After roughly six months of radio publicity and building public anticipation, her face was finally unveiled when her debut album "Day & Night" was released on 13 April 2005.
On 25 November of the same year, Janice released her second album "My Love", a rarity for a newcomer in Hong Hong's music industry.
In mid-December of 2005 Janice was nominated by Commercial Radio 2 for the 2005 Hong Kong Music Awards Best Female Singer, which results are due out on Jan 1, 2006. On 1 January 2006, Janice was awarded by Commercial Radio Hong Kong (CRHK) the Gold prize for 2005 Best Female Newcomer., to the delight of her fans and family.
你的女人

桃紅唇膏白色指甲可否扣住你的心
無奈你的本能 不欣賞這片苦心
未曾望向強歡顏的嘴角如今我自問
留住我的細心 可否感動你的心
凌亂文件用心整理可惜你家另有人
回望你的深沉 早解釋你沒秘密
內情任我揭開便穿不過誰想去抖震
難留住你 我便決定留住我
一睹鏡內神采或可誘惑別人陪我坐
即使給你瞧不起的太多 換到膽小的結果
從今天我要讓別人承認我
為何常歧視我 我沒有任何犯錯
收起那份戒心可不可 留心往日的清單正在播的歌
彷彿發現自卑的我也不錯
誰是你的女人 終於不用再操心
明白那天自討苦吃根本討不到歡心
凝望鏡中的人 彷彿聽見你聲音
在留住我說天下間只有曾經最吸引
難留住你 我便決定留住我
一睹鏡內神采或可誘惑別人陪我坐
即使給你瞧不起的太多 換到膽小的結果
從今天我要讓別人承認我
為何常歧視我 我沒有任何犯錯
收起那份戒心可不可 留心往日的清單正在播的歌
彷彿發現自卑的我也不錯
誰是你的女人 真的不願意關心
還是那天自討苦吃根本覺得不要緊
凝望鏡中的人 彷彿心裡亦有人
在提示我說天下間只有曾經最吸引
還是我對於曾經掛念的回音
The song "你的女人" (Your Woman) by 衛蘭 (Janice Vidal) is about a woman who tries to hold onto her own identity and self-worth in the face of rejection by a man she loves. The lyrics are full of emotional complexity and reveal the singer's vulnerability and her determination to assert her own value. The first verse describes her efforts to keep her sexiness and attention to detail intact, even though the man does not appreciate her efforts. She wonders if her lipstick and nails can capture his heart, but recognizes that his nature is to ignore her efforts. She reflects on the fact that her caring nature is not valued by him, as he has someone else in his life. She acknowledges that he has no secrets from her, but she cannot overcome her trembling when she tries to reveal her own inner feelings to him.
The chorus emphasizes the singer's decision to stop trying to hold onto the man and instead focus on herself. She realizes that she cannot control his feelings and actions, but she can control her own. She looks in the mirror and recognizes her own value as a woman, even if the man cannot see it. She decides to make others recognize her worth and stop judging her unfairly. The second verse continues the reflection on the singer's own struggles with insecurity and self-doubt. She wonders if she is good enough for the man and if she should change herself to please him. However, she decides to be true to herself and not try to change herself to gain his approval.
Overall, "你的女人" is a powerful song about self-love and the importance of valuing oneself. The singer recognizes that she cannot force someone to love her or accept her, but she can focus on herself and her own worth. The song is both heart-wrenching and empowering, and it speaks to anyone who has struggled with the pain of rejection and insecurity.
