IDOL Magazine spotlight: Leehom

Did Leehom copied someone else's idea for his MTV!?!
A group called "Five Months Days"(???!?!)(五 月 天) formed by university students has a lot in common with the currently studying in Berkley U, Leehom Wang. Their songs has the fresh sound as their own sound. At the end of June, the albums presented by both parties has the "student" sound, and is very unique, too. When they filmed their MTV's, Leehom's "Impossible to Miss You" and Five Months Days' "Exposed(透 露)" have a lot in common and have many similarities.
With the help of computers, Leehom's "Impossible to Miss You" MTV has Leehom going through the walls as a special effect. He can go through walls, ceilings, and even play ball in different rooms. As for Five Months Days' "Exposed", they also can go through the walls, the only difference is that Leehom alone go through the walls, but for Five Months Days, the five group members came together from different rooms.
After seeing the MTVs of Five Months Days and Leehom, with the same effects, different directors and yet the same idea, the question popped up in everyone's curious mind: Who copied who? Rock Records and Sony Music explained, this isn't copying, it is just an idea that both parties have after seeing a music video. The video is apparently the video of Grammy award winners, the Engish group Jamiroquai, in which Leehom's and Five Months Days' video has a similiarity with.



Leehom's strange habits while recording his album!!
Golden Melody Award winner Leehom Wang has a few strange habits. Wanting to achieve the very best for his album, he has hidden himself in a closet to record his songs. Young people often go to KTV lounges to sing, but Leehom has never done so, because he didn't like KTV lounges and he didn't want to hear someone else sing his songs.
Leehom admitted that, after winning the Golden Melody Awards, he has changed his way of working, but in his opinion, these are all good changes. Every morning, he wakes up and tells himself, ok, today no laziness and do promotions properly.
Quoted Leehom, "Impossible to Miss You" was recorded before his win, so the win doesn't change anything in his production of "Impossible to Miss You".
Leehom put in a few equipments in his living quarters in America and turned it into "Homeboy" recording studio. While he was doing his recording work, he discovered that hiding in a closet while singing produced a better sound. So he moved put all his clothes and piled them up on his bed and turned his empty closet into a very mini recording studio. After recording for while, he would opened up his closet to air it out and get some fresh air.
A very interested in producing Leehom does not want people to think he only produced his own songs. His new album consists of many different sounds, in which he hopes will impress other singers and they will want him to produce their songs as well.
Leehom's new album consists of many love songs, such as "Julia" and "Mary Says". The title of these two songs has nosy reporters chasing after Leehom and asking him whether is Julia and Mary his old girlfriends. Leehom cheekily answered, "Julia Roberts and Ha La Mary(??!!?)(哈 啦 馬 莉)
