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.

可借膊頭你
如何放心得了你
明天我再回來 等你
KATRINA 明天他
終會發現你吧
如看守天使那樣美
等下去吧
＊殘忍的單戀 非你專利
我卻在這裡照顧你
如果比辛酸 怎跟我比
我愛慕的 卻是我知己
真喜歡你
尚要借你暗戀他去接近你
才可悲
（我愛自己 也未愛得起
應該最謙卑
但我卻要妄想一世保護你
才可悲）＊
KATRINA 如一生 只有70歲
已快將一半了 戀愛卻無期
何時心死？ 還期望他喜歡你
誰會這麼的不服氣？竟有個人
陪你一起 就似你
REPEAT＊
殘忍的單戀 非你專利
我覺悟一定晚過你
如果比辛酸 怎跟我比
我愛自己 也未愛得起
痛也不淒美
但我卻要妄想一世保護你
才可悲
KATRINA
The song "Katrina" by 陳奕迅 is a ballad about unrequited love and the pain of watching someone you care deeply for love someone else. The lyrics describe the singer's feelings towards Katrina, whom he loves deeply but is unable to be with because she loves someone else. Despite this, he vows to always be there for her when she needs someone to lean on and promises to return to her after some time apart. The song also touches on the idea of mortality, with the singer reflecting on the fact that life is short and wonders when Katrina's heart will give up on waiting for the man she loves.
Throughout the song, the singer conveys a sense of sadness and longing, with lines like "若想哭 可借膊頭你" (if you want to cry, you can lean on my shoulder) and "我愛慕的 卻是我知己" (the person I admire the most is my best friend). He seems to be struggling with his own unrequited feelings and how to come to terms with them while still being there for the person he cares for. Despite their situation, he ends the song with the reassurance that everything will be okay.
