Eason Chan has been named by Chinese critics as the next God of Songs (歌神) after Jacky Cheung. However, Eason has more than once clarified that he wishes to build his own name instead, and not just be the successor of Jacky Cheung. There is a duet called 天下太平 sung by Chan and Jacky Cheung in the album Perfect Match by Albert Leung，Ronald Ng (伍樂城) released in April 2006. Chan and Cheung have collaborated on other occasions as well. They sang a duet of Cheung's 頭髮亂了 in a fundraising campaign for SARS victims in 2003.
Chan not only sings but also plays a variety of musical instrument including piano, violin, accordion, guitar and drums. He frequently showcases his musical talent by incorporating instruments into his live performances. Chan is also a song-writer who has written many songs, some included in his albums.
天使的禮物
陳奕迅 Lyrics

詞：林夕
編：陳輝陽／金培達
每晚你也要駕著的士盼望
但聖誕夜誰來講快樂
每隔數秒要對著電話講你好
遇著你感冒 誰來問你的好
一路上夢想的櫥窗 誰憑勞力發亮
天未亮便在場 誰贈你勳章 炫耀你夢鄉
每晚企著過 為何都不肚餓
樣樣美食你也捧過 誰來請你坐
擔起一噸噸繁華的廢物
朝垃圾站 造福萬民 誰來贈你香薰
一路上夢想的櫥窗 誰憑勞力發亮
天未亮便在場 誰贈你勳章 誰在拍掌
* 我想將天使的小禮物呈上一雙翅膀
在夜空诹翔一趟 陪你看城市亮光
我想將這張咀親你額角好比高貴銅像
誰認識這大人物 霓虹燈因他更亮 誰來景仰
Repeat *
我想將 雙手的溫暖附托在你肩上
我想將 鼓掌的聲線盤旋在你光環上
若你無言 讓天使合唱
The lyrics of 陳奕迅's song 天使的禮物 are about a person who is lonely on Christmas night and feels unseen and unappreciated for their hard work and efforts all year long. They long for someone to talk to, to share their burdens with, and to celebrate their achievements with. The lyrics also talk about the dream of the person who is tired of the mundane routine of life, who wants to fly and see the world while feeling appreciated and important.
The first verse highlights the loneliness of the person, who is waiting for someone to wish them a happy Christmas, to ask how they are doing when they are sick, and to share a meal with. The second verse talks about the person's dreams and aspirations that are yet to be fulfilled. They want to see their hard work pay off, receive recognition and acknowledgment for their efforts, and be surrounded by people who support them. The chorus expresses the desire to give the person a pair of wings and take them to see the bright lights of the city, to show them how much they are valued and appreciated.
The lyrics of this song touch upon themes of loneliness, longing, and the desire for recognition and appreciation. The song is a reminder of the importance of acknowledging and valuing the hard work of others and the power of small acts of kindness to brighten someone's day.
