Michael Wong

Malaysian singer-songwriter Michael Wong found his place in the Mandopop scene through a charismatic persona and timelessly authentic pop melodies. Gifted with a set of vocals that resonate over simple arrangements, Wong released his solo debut in 2001—a record packed with memorable, folksy ballads. But it was 2005 smash hit “Fairy Tale” and its heart-breaking story that achieved meteoric success and continues to resonate as the best of Wong’s organic sound—one that has opened the doors for other Southeast Asian artists.
