He may be still young，but he may surprise you!If you ask around，many would say that the music world has a new leader --- the real king is Jay Chou.As a child，Jay Chou was never too good at his subjects，and when he didn't get into any college，a lot of people said that he wouldn't be very hopeful in life.His mom always worried about his future，but he never did. "I knew I still had music to depend on.For everything else，I always believe in myself，but it is for my musical talent that I'm so sure of myself." he said.Growing up in a single-parent family，Jay lived a lonely childhood.Without many friends，he had a habit of daydreaming，dreaming into his world of music.
So how did Jay get into music？At the age of three，he started learning to play the piano.His mother was very strict to make sure he practiced hard.Later，he learned to play the cello（大提琴）.
With all the musical talent，it isn't surprising that Jay started out as a songwriter.Since the age of sixteen，he has been writing songs for many of the most popular singers.Today，he has already written for some of the most popular Asian singers，including Coco Lee，Jacky Wu，etc.
It was only in 2000 that Jay put out his own album（专辑） "Jay".Jay's soft and smooth voice is especially gentle and calm，making this first album an immediate hit.Each song in the album has its own，different style，and skillfully，Jay used his voice to suit each song's character.
Lyrics（歌词） of Jay's songs all have a special touch.In his song "Dad，I am back"，the subject is a broken family. "I heard that after war，there is peace.Why do I always see my dad beating my mom？Since I was young，you told me to learn from you，use you as a model.So much pretense（借口）.How do you expect me to be like you!"
