Kay Tse (Traditional Chinese: 謝安琪 / Simplified Chinese: 谢安琪) (born March 13, 1977) is a Hong Kong pop singer. She was a newcomer to the music industry in 2005, and is known for her versatile vocal range and styles, including pop, alternative, rock, jazz, and soul. Since 2008, she has become one of the most popular female Hong Kong singers.
In 2002, whilst still a university student majoring in American Studies at the University of Hong Kong, Kay Tse entered a university singing competition and won First Prize. She also entered an inter-schools singing competition in 2003 and made the final five, impressing one of the judges so much that he offered her a professional contract with his small music label. At the time she was working as a piano teacher.
Tse’s debut Cantonese album “Kay One” was released on May 6, 2005 to an unsuspecting Hong Kong public. The album includes 2 non-Cantonese songs, an English version of 《我歌…故我在》 (“The One and Only”) and a Mandarin version of 《姿色份子》named “Plastic Roses” (《塑膠玫瑰》).
Initially, due to the dearth of love songs in her albums, Tse was not popular in the mainstream Cantopop market. Nevertheless, many music industry insiders have tipped her singing ability to have big potential (despite her plain looks) and regard her as one of a new breed of ‘non-idol’ singers who sell their singing ability rather than their looks.
Tse had several hits in 2005. These include the songs:
《姿色份子》, a fast catchy pop tune mocking the Asian dieting trend;
《我歌…故我在》, a slow ballad expressing a singer’s feelings on the stage;
