Introduction
Zheng Jun is a famous singer of Chinese rock. Originally from Xi'an, he attended university in Hangzhou. His first album, entitled Naked (赤裸裸), was released by Red Star Productions in 1993, and was immediately successful. He later released an album entitled "Third Eye" (第三只眼).
Zheng Jun has also recorded a Chinese language version of Coldplay's song "Yellow", entitled "流星" ("shooting star," pinyin: Liú Xīng). It was included in the soundtrack of the 2001 Taiwanese television series Meteor Garden.
In 2007, Zheng joined the judges' panel of Happy Boys Voice, a sequel to Hunan Satellite Television's Super Girl; a controversy developed over his quarrel with fellow judge Yang Erche Namu over her ranking of a contestant from his hometown of Xi'an.[1]
