I Do-A-Do

 

The new album, which is the fourth in his 4-year singing career, contains 10 new tracks, including the theme song "I Do", "Snowing", and "Sleepless".
He's a household name in the Chinese pop music scene, but the Mando-pop sensation they call A-Do, whose real name is Do Cheng Yi, is a reluctant superstar.

The Singaporean singer with the hoarse, sexy voice has the crowds screaming, but is still terribly shy -- and very proud of his blue-collar roots.

His story sounds like a stereotypical rags to riches Hollywood screenplay: A-Do comes from a single-parent family, quit school at 15, waited tables, repaired cars and worked construction sites to make ends meet.

His singing talent was first discovered by none other than his fellow workers, who convinced him to audition for a record label -- and the rest is Mando-pop history.

A-Do plies his trade like most other Mando-pop acts, by singing love ballads, but unlike those of his peers who often get criticized for "singing without emotion," his love songs are deeply touching. His hoarse yet powerful voice reminds fans of American singer Richard Marx.

Let's have a listen to A-Do's new song from the latest album "I Do"!
