Janice Vidal (Chinese Simplified: 卫兰; Chinese Traditional: 衛蘭), born April … Read Full Bio ↴Janice Vidal (Chinese Simplified: 卫兰; Chinese Traditional: 衛蘭), born April 13, 1982, is a female singer in Hong Kong. She is of mixed parentage with a Filipino father and a mixed Chinese and Korean mother. As a Chinese singer she had chosen the Chinese name Wei Lan (衛蘭), although most of her fans refer to her simply as Janice. In the past she went under the name Renee in her musical work prior to her debut album in 2005 and "Ming Lok Tai" (明樂蒂) in a EEG singing competition in 2000.

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.

回電我
衛蘭 Lyrics

忘掉我誰最愛派對以後忘掉我
這個答案你推搪什麼
到過哪位家中觀光狂熱過

迴避我對答錯了以後迴避我
還借意對我去挑剔什麼
說我敏感不可揣摩贏下我很風光

我在如此悲哀的拍拖為何緊抱不放
看著自尊剝落失去更加多
愛是殘忍得不到結果傷心當一課
過度迷戀終於只鑄成大錯

遺下我你會冷戰以後遺下我
誰也會勸我看清楚什麼
太愛你又忐忑驚慌回電我可不可

我在如此悲哀的拍拖為何緊抱不放
看著自尊剝落一秒秒增多
愛是殘忍得不到結果握緊我心窩
這是弱者不願公開的悲歌

我問如此悲哀的拍拖為何得我一個
笑住留戀生命缺乏你撫摸
不想沉溺哭泣得過火輸給了心魔
繼續自欺奢想得你陪住我

這樣傻戀兜圈的結果明明想要醒覺
卻突然很開心因你回電我

Overall Meaning

The song "回電我" by 衛蘭 (Janice Vidal) is a poignant ballad about a woman who is struggling to let go of a failed relationship. The lyrics express the singer's frustration and confusion as she navigates the aftermath of a breakup. In the first stanza, she calls for her former lover to forget about her and move on with his life. She wonders where he has been and what he has been up to since they parted ways.

The second stanza reveals that the singer is actively avoiding her former lover and cannot bear to face him. She is hurt by his criticism and feels that he doesn't understand her. Despite her pain, however, she is still holding on to their failed romance, unable to let go.

The chorus repeats the phrase "我在如此悲哀的拍拖" (I am in such a sad relationship) several times, underscoring the singer's emotional turmoil. She wonders why she is unable to walk away from the relationship, even as it causes her so much pain. The final stanza reveals that the singer is aware that she is being foolish in continuing to pine for her ex, but she continues to hope that he will call her back. The last line of the song expresses the singer's conflicting emotions: although she knows that she needs to move on, she still feels happy at the thought of hearing from her former lover.
