The next Stefanie Sun?

Chinese pop singer Meixin's debut album is the culmination of three years' work. "That I can actually come up with this album is a big achievement," she said. "As I was always in China and Taiwan filming, I didn't have time to get into the studio. I'd be filming for one week before I could record some songs. So I'd be shuttling from China to Singapore. It's tiring, but you get used to it."

A plus for Meixin is that she managed to get her original composition, Because I Love You, on the album. "That's my first song. It's drawn from a bit of my life and the people I know," she said.

"I used to write songs, but not all of them were very good. This is a simple song, but I think that makes it easier for people to remember. Besides, it's the first time I'm doing this."

Meixin said her dream is to collaborate with her idol, local superstar Stefanie Sun.

"She's one of Singapore's biggest stars. I think her songs are really great. I love her albums and her songs really touch me. If I could cover her songs, that would be great. But then again, she's already done them so well, how can I compete with that?"
