I Love Wang Lee Hom Thread> Info On His Concert!

[Guest lazibratt]

cute, smart, talented, and nice= the perfect man =)

New Album is out!! Go buy it :]

creds to me for uploading and http://yekaroo.com for providing. Leehom's lastest album, remember to go out and get your copy Leehom Wang's highly anticipated new album is here! In 2006, the talented singer-songwriter was crowned the Best Male Mandarin Singer at the Golden Melody Awards, and staged a successful concert tour, bringing his music to fans throughout Asia. Beyond that, he devoted much of his time to acting in Ang Lee's new film Lust, Caution, set in 1930s Shanghai. With shooting finally wrapped up, Leehom is returning to music with the album Change My Ways. In his last two albums, Heroes of Earth and Shangri-la, Leehom championed a fusion of hip hop and Chinese traditional music, a musical style that he dubbed "chinked-out". For his latest album, he is ready to "change his ways" and present a new image and new musical ventures. His latest album will take on a cleaner and more mellow sound, as can be heard in his new song "Falling Leaf Returns To Root". No matter what musical direction the singer takes, it is clear the one thing that won't change is the quality, sincerity, and talent that comes with every Leehom Wang album. 01 Intro 02 改变自己 Gai Bian Zi Ji (Change My Ways) 03 落叶归根 Luo Ye Gui Gen (Falling Leaf Returns to Root) 04 创作前言 05 我们的歌Wo Men de Ge (Our Song) 06 你是我心内的一首歌 Ni Shi Wo Xin Nei de Yi Shou Ge (You Are A Song in My Heart) 07 爱在哪里 Ai Zai Na Li (Where's Love) 08 Cockney Girl 09 不完整的旋律 Bu Wan Zheng de Xuan Lv (Incomplete Melody) 10 爱的鼓励 Ai De Gu Li (Encouragement of Love) 11 华人万岁 Huey Ren Wan Sui (Long Live Chinese) 12 星期六的深夜 Xing Qi Liu de Shen Ye (Saturday's Midnight)

HAHA omg

3. Right eye moves outward (外雙)，Left eye moves inward (內雙)

that was translated SO INACCURATELY. they're about his double eyelids, not his eyes.

but anyway, I adore this guy. He's the closest to perfect than any person I know of.

There are over 350 videos uploaded in the YouTube Leehom group so goooo watch :]

[Guest *.:StarryEyeSurprise:.*]

He's my fav chinese singer

SO talented and smart

good looking too

and such a nice guy ^^

[Joanna]

OHH YAY that's for starting a Lee Hom thread! he's one of my fav Chinese singers!! hehee

[Guest *wenDzie^^*]

omg thanx for that youtube

I LOVE LEEHOM!!

[Guest cHenz--]

OMG... i LOVE him!!

i swear, if i want to find a guy, and put him as the standard, nobody will qualify XP

[Guest MzBeciko]

who doesnt love this guy!?

[Guest jho]

Woow there are so many WLH fans out here on Soompi XD

[Guest KooZyAnn]

He performed an olympic song?? When was this?!

[Guest singerchick]

I <33 Him. He brought my interest back into Chinese music.

And the awesome part is that he's awesomely nice. I was afraid that he would be like those stars who happen to have "bad' days, but he's so sweet. Even though he had just gotten off the plane for his music video shoot at LOs Angeles, he was still extremely sweet to his fans. And the fans that met him in Australia all chatted with him for around 30 or so minutes in the airport. He's so real and down to earth.

So one day I got bored and I decided to google up his little brother's name and I found his little brother's named listed at all these sites. It's kind of scary. That whole family is crazy smart.

National Merit Finalist

2003 Presidential Scholars Program 2003 Candidates (top 30 boys and top 30 girls in EACH STATE)

Perfect score in the NY mathematics League

Mathematical olympiad participee

United States of America Mathematical Olympiad State qualifier

3rd place in the state of NY for CONTINENTAL CHESS ASSOCIATION

That's only what I've googled..and to imagine Leekai probably has a trillion more awards... not a surprise he got accepted into MIT.

Dude Leehom's whole family is smart. What with his lil bro at MIT and him recieving a 1600 on his SATS and being accepted into princeton and yale and going to williams the #1 liberal arts school in America. and his big brother a doctor. It's so amazing that's he's so well rounded. And he's one of the few entertainers in the chinese music stage that actually has a master's degree in music.

8. Has to brush teeth before recording He has such adorable habits

his english is sooo f'ing sexy

[Guest s3rene]

I love this guy and he is one of the handsomest celebrities ever. There is a thread for him already at the Photo section.

[Guest Blue Lemonade]

I didn't know he loves to sleep naked XD

He's my favourite artist after JJ Lin, although I must admit I think talent wise.. Leehom has more talents. Even my mom loves this guy. What I like the most in him (aside from his talents) is how he's so sweet, probably the sweetest celebrity I've ever came across liking ><

[Guest yuans7love]

^lol~ my mom's in love with him too

I mean he's... perfect

seriously there's no other words to describe him. He's smart, good looking, tall, hard working, creative, passionate, oh god i can go on forever. Also I love how he's ABC but he's so in-tune with his ethnicity that he even incorporates them into his music like his latest Heroes of Earth album. This man is genious. I love him so much!!!

[Guest Blue Lemonade]

^ hahah.. I was watching a concert and Leehom was there, my mom walks in and just fell in love with him After that, she took all my Leehom CDs and put it in her car XD

[Guest singerchick]

^lol~ my mom's in love with him too

I mean he's... perfect

I know!

There are so many ABCS around where I live who totally dislike anything asian they automatically assume you are a FOB if you listen to Chinese songs. I mean sometimes I get the feeling that these ABCs feel that they are better and are sort of ashamed to be tied to their cultures. They try soo hard to seperate Chinese from American. Well I have to admit I used to be like that, but Leehom's music has really opened me up.

My mom likes him, because he's such an awesome role model but she gets pissed sometimes if I obsess over him a bit too much lol. Also it kind of sucks because she goes... "so maybe you think you can get into princeton or yale like Leehom did?" :fury: .....LOL

[Guest yuans7love]

^ hahah.. I was watching a concert and Leehom was there, my mom walks in and just fell in love with him After that, she took all my Leehom CDs and put it in her car XD

haha that's too cute!! my mom likes to come in my room and stare at my leehom poster even though she doesn't admit it

[Guest dOotsiez]

hey back off, HE'S MINE!!

lols, just joking...

it's prettie hard not to fall in love wif him. i luvv seeing leehom on an instrument. he's so alive.

yeah, leehom belongs to one of those rare breeds of celebrities who are good role models ^.^

[Guest tomodachi-]

9. Loves to sleep naked

lol

Wang Leehom has perfect pitch, which means he can identify pitch by ear. He also can play most pieces of music by ear, and hence doesn't usually need sheet music.

wow o_o'

he has just about the most perfect profile i've ever seen

can he get any more talented? XD

[Guest s3rene]

I find it hilarious that he sleeps nude.

[athirah]

I'm really pissed when to think that i have the golden chance to meet him and i blew it beacause i was too lazy to go out with my sis. My sis asked me to go out with her and i decline, after she came back, she said she saw wang lee hom at shopping complex promoting his new album or something. Thank god , he's coming again , i think so this year.
