I have been participating in singing competitions for more than 10 years now.
Apart from the significant victory in the 'Search for Elvis 2002' (by Light & Easy FM and BMG records), I've won several other 'artiste-themed' singing contests such as Boyz II Men (MIX FM/Universal Records)and Cranberries (WOW FM).
My biggest break happened at the Super Talent Search '07. I impersonated Jacky Cheung and Elvis Presley, with a creative transformation in between.
Here's how I did it...

In this competition, I won the grand prize - 1 year recording contract to release an album. Admittedly, to become a recording artiste is my dream come true - a personal achievement even greater than my Elvis impersonation accomplishment. This competition was broadcasted on Astro Jia Yu in early 2008.
In mid July 2009, my debut Cantonese album was finally released. The challenge I face is that I'm Chinese illiterate. So I had to do my own Cantonese pin yin, and consulted friends for better accuracy prior to recording.
My album features popular hit songs from Hong Kong, such as :
等
分分鐘需要你
相思河畔
情花开
留給世上我最愛的人
新不了情
四季歌
Included in my album are 2 original Cantonese tracks. These were previously Hokkien songs, with newly written lyrics for my album :
一顆真摯心
一生只得你
I've created these promo videos for my debut album, which includes the TV commercial aired on NTV7.
