“No one can become a puppetIt's just a process of evading emotions.”

“This structure, prevents the equally distributed sunlight from shining through.”

“Like the windEven the clouds descend when you are near.”

“But you loved me so once, why act out the detailsNot appearing to care is my last performance.”

“It hasn't snowed in Shanghai for more than ten yearsYet it suddenly snowed the moment you left.”

“Recorded songs and live stages are two different things. One is responsible for the people who are willing to wear headphones for you, the responsibility is repeated listening. The other is responsible for the people who are willing to come to the performances for you, the responsibility is emotional resonance.”

“Doing variety shows is to make money, and the ultimate goal of making money is to return to making music.”

“Just come and listen to my songs, no need to spend money or worry.”

“You can still listen to my songs from 10 years ago but if you're comparing them to my music today, you'd think they're lousy-at least I think so. There's a good reason why they weren't popular back then. I'm not a particularly gifted singer or songwriter but I like to think I'm hardworking, and listeners can tell the progress I've made over my recent albums. I think my biggest change is my understanding towards music and my taste in it.”

“If I weren't doing music, I wouldn't want to do anything else. I think I would always be doing music for my entire life. Unless one day, when I feel I can't write any more good songs, I will disappear. But right now, it would be too difficult for me to leave music. I got very excited whenever I write good song lyrics, I just go ..."Wha-!" I get especially excited whenever I write something good. I get so happy that I would even wake people up for it. I would shake my father like this and tell him to take a look at my lyrics, because he likes to hear my work too.”
