What is Jay's favourite band?

[Jay luver]

My piano teacher said in order to play well in piano you must know the composer's background...right? So she asigned a composer for me...and it was Jay! (She knows how much I love him...everyone that knows me does). And she gave me loads of questions she wants me to find out, and I can answer most of them but not this: What is Jay's favourite band? She knows a bit about jay cuz her friend told her, but she gave me a clue: he got some of his music ideas from the band and it's an English band. Does anyone know? I'm getting more desperate now! Can someone please tell me? Thkz~!

Just a shot in the dark...but could it be Linkin Park?

That's what I was thinking.. Since the question was favourite band.. It can't be really any R&B artists like Usher. hmm..

I don't know what other groups inspired him to write songs in previous albums or if any group even inspired him but looks as if Nuo Fu (Coward) on Ye Hui Mei was from listening to Linkin Park or something.

[Jay luver]

I know he likes Usher, but he's not in a band. Probably what you guys are saying, but I don't know who they are...are the black? White? Hey, was Usher in a band before by any chance? hmmm, i got to find out soon. but thanks you guyz

[nycgirls]

Bon Jovi or similar artist...

purely a guess, but I have my reasons... however, the evil board has an error and 20 lines worth of explanation was washed away!! :( anyways, I think Jay Luver must have his/her answers already...!! So who is it???? :-)

[PaoAiJieLun]

hmmm... yeah, it COULD BE Linkin Park.... cos in his MV "Ban Shou Ren/The Orcs", it looked somewhat like Linkin Park's In The End... (convincing enough?) hehehe... well, i know this is a bit shallow.... but hey, it could be possible! as for Usher.... Usher never was included in a ny band.. he's a solo performer ever since.... Ü well, it's possible that he got inspiration from both artists... cos Usher sings r&b ballads and raps too.. and Linkin Park.. well, they rap sooo well!
ei... whaddya know!!! THEY ARE MY FAVORITE ARTISTS!!!!! hehehehe..... Jay Chou, Linkin Park and Usher.... hmmm... Ü

[greyhavens]

hello pao... same fave here... yup. it's probably linkin park.. this makes you kind of wish that we can read chinese characters. we can probably search for it from other chinese jay fan sites... well....

[Saigo]

Hehe, perhaps U2? Or The Corrs? XD (seeing that I'm a huggeee fan of The Corrs as well =P)

[auron34]

Ermm...does Nan Quan Ma Ma considered as a band?..if it is...isit dem?

[klarence]

lol yea, it's probably Nan Quan Ma Ma now, since he helped them so much for their first album. He probably likes SHE also, because he's composed 3 songs for them.

[auron34]

I heard dat SHE"s Hou Niao is written by Jay..budden d MV says its written by Fang Wen San...weird..

btw dis question's out of topic..

[klarence]

yes, Fang Wen San wrote the lyrics of the song Hou Niao, but Jay composed the tune. He also composed He Bing Gong Yuan and Re Dai Yu Lin for SHE. so maybe Jay does like SHE! I thought he liked Ella or something (in a friendly way :D)

[black shinigami]

Didn't she say English band? Mmmm...maybe it's Coldplay or Beatles or something. I know many people like the beatles. Or maybe it's M2M ^_^;;(no, actually I just like that band).

There aren't many good english bands out there, imo, but maybe his favourite band is the Spice Girls(i loved that band).

[deejay0103]

I think Jay's favourite band is Linkin Park. I heard him mentioning about Linkin Park's music in one fo the interview before..he said something like...Linkin Park's music is good but their band are lack of a female...If I am not mistaken it was something like that...

[ask4more_jay]

I think it's Linkin Park. i've never heard them...but i think their jay's favourite~

I heard dat SHE"s Hou Niao is written by Jay..budden d MV says its written by Fang Wen San...weird..

btw dis question's out of topic..

yes. Jay wrote the MUSIC for Hou Niao, but Vincent (Fang Wen Shan) wrote the LYRICS. i think you're new around here, since you only have 2 posts (so far) well. welcome! and hope you get to know jay more~ and discover his DIAOness even MORE! :bleh:

[will_zhng]

Does it really matter, honestly... this forum could be going on for years........If nobody knows which one jay likes, than dont bother trying...

FORUM CLOSED

[trishee]

will_zhng, hey its cute that you are trying to help organize things around here (or just trying to make a point), but please dont declare a forum closed like that, it'll confuse other people.
1) it isnt closed, I can still post, see? 2)you dont have the power to close anything, only moderators or admins do 3) why close this forum...we can make a Jay discovery tomorrow on his favorite artists and start talking again.

As for my two cents, Jay wrote songs for SHE, that doesnt necessarily mean he likes their music right? OK Im not trying to say Jay doesnt like their music or SHE is bad or anything, I think SHE are pretty cute and talented, but because Jay writes for Artist X, doesnt mean he listens to Artist X all the time right?

I think Jay is into alot of Rap and RnB and Hip Hop. Not necessarily 50 Cent Eminem Hip Hop but more like Babyface, yes Usher, Justin Timberlake (OMG Justin is hip hop?), and other chinese artists. Bands like Coldplay and Oasis should be on his list (of course Oasis, he rewrote the lyrics to Stop Crying Your Heart Out!) Linkin Park should be there too but his music isnt really influenced by them at all, LP is alot more rock than Jay. If he did like them that much, it should reflect onto his music right? Maybe Im all wrong about it, but I do know Jay listens to what is considered 'good' music.

I never suggested that he listens to SHE's music all the time, just that he might be good friends with them. After all, one's favorite band might not be just because of it's music, but the members inside it. lol you never know! :-)

[ah^kai]

i heard from an interview posted by one of the JC regular that jay is currently listening to a group called Mr. Children ( jap / korean? not too sure ) if anyone is interested to listen, do pm me and i'll upload to the download and links section :-) maybe now jay's group favourites lies in the J pop series! :-)

That's true, favorite people can be considered favorite bands too.

As for liking Mr.Children, Ive heard of them, they seem pretty famous and real talented too. Go ahead ah^kai, upload it.

[yukiko]

its quite an unique band i can say... :angel:

[nunya415]

I think that I read somewhere that it was like the Backstreet boys.....the only reason was because I found it disturbing...and still do ---somewhat...><

[sam_ho]

I think it could be Linkin Park and U2..since well Nuo Fu kinda reminds me of the background music in Nuo Fu and LINkin Park....
