Super Idol Taiwan 2011
Chen Jie (陳婕) or Reina Chen
When I was trying to look for songs performed by Chen Jie, I could NOT find anything on Google or YouTube. I had to type in her name in Chinese to find them on Google.
This site will help people in English speaking world find Chen Jie and songs performed by her.
I think you may like her songs also.
Here are English songs performed by Chen Jie:

If you understand Chinese, you can enjoy the lyric also. If you do NOT understand Chinese, just enjoy the music and the vocal performance.
Here are some links for Chinese songs performed by Chen Jie(陳婕):

上海姑娘陳婕在唱走鋼索的人時，顯得俏麗飄逸，魅力四射，可以升格為歌友們的“夢中情人”了。[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P5zHmasVTA]
20110917超級偶像 陳婕 - 氧氣:
Just watch your latest performance of 氧氣, it is good but not enough to make me excited.A guy probably wouldn’t mind if his girl friend sings this song to him, but to win the Super Idol competition, this song may not be able to do it. It is good enough to make you go for the next stage, but not good enough for the final.
It is definitely the song choice. The competition is going to get tougher and tougher. You need to go out there every time, pick the song that will make people excited and fit you the most, give 110% of what you have. Treat every performance like the last performance, and sing like there is no tomorrow.
Since you are learning dance right now, I think you may be able to learn something from last year's winner Miu Zhu's dancing. Her dance moves are NOT hard, but very subtle and sexy, and express the beauty of female body perfectly.

There are hundreds or even thousands of songs that fit you very well, please, please pick the right song next time. In this competition, you are the only one that can defeat yourself by picking the wrong songs. Every time you step out at the Super Idol stage, millions and millions of people are watching, please cherish and take full advantage of this opportunity and do NOT waste it. Please do NOT pick song like 氧氣: Do NOT get me wrong, it is a good song, and every man probably wants to be the one that you are singing the song to, but it is NOT going to make you win this competition.
《传 奇》by 王菲 may be a good choice if you can sing as detailed as 王菲, you日 high notes can even be better than 王菲. 《传奇》 is a favorite song to many people to begin with, and it is really 好听.
Here is the link:

"我想有個家" by 潘美辰 is another good choice, see link:

20110716 超級偶像 陳婕 後知後覺
後知後覺 touches my heart, 我是一隻小小鳥 makes me feel that I am soaring high in the sky with you. You need to pick more songs like that.
You know what you are good at, and we know what you are good at. It is like in the boxing ring, you need to give your best punch and knock down your competition. Bring out you full fire power every time, and you can do it.
We know you are trying your best, and we are praying for you, and wish you always have peace and happiness in your heart. If you love the song, and people will feel it when you performance.
Do NOT worry about winning or lose, keep doing what you are doing, do NOT make silly mistakes like forgetting lyric/words of the songs (so many people made this silly mistake), and last but not least, pick the right song.
If you really want to sing English songs in the future, you can try "I have nothing" by Whitney Houston. It may be a little too long for the competition, may be they'll let you cut and sing part of the song. See link:
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_4yFe0pmKw]
It is a very hard song and many people are familiar with it, if you make any mistake, people will immediately know. This is minor risk for you because I think you can sing most songs very well and handle them nicely. On the other hand, if you sing it well: as good as or even better than the original singer, people will LOVE you. This is a major potential up-side for you. This is also a song that matches your voice.

I just watch 後知後覺 by 陳婕 again, here is what I feel: 酣畅淋漓，一曲成名。People will remember you because of後知後覺. I hope this is you starting point, NOT your ending point, and hope you bring more wonderful songs to people with your great voice.
Thanks to Super Idol, a great platform to let millions of people know you.
我比較喜歡歌友這個稱呼而不是粉思（還沒到思的地步），歌迷（還沒到迷的地步）。
歌友歌友，以歌會友，不亦樂乎！
超偶比賽后，陳婕，你一定要教我們唱高音的竅門， 現在要保密。我現在可以唱得最高的歌是劉歡的“少年壯志不言愁”。
陳婕， 天生麗質，又有天籟之聲，一定會成為超級偶像，超級明星，超級歌星的。超偶這次挖到寶了。
只要陳婕選對歌，不忘詞，她一定會贏得這次超偶比賽。
陳婕陳婕，人美歌杰。
超偶比賽，一定報捷。
陳婕，加油！我曾經到過青海，新疆和西藏。那儿的景色真美。到了那儿，你能体會到古詩中“大漠孤煙直，長河落日圓”的意境。
光有美景是不夠的，得有良辰，美景和佳人才行。
有一首歌，歌中有良辰，美景，佳人，還有真情。這首歌就是王洛賓 的“在那遙遠的地方”:
http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%9C%A8%E9%82%A3%E9%81%A5%E8%BF%9C%E7%9A%84%E5%9C%B0%E6%96%B9
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0oUceqs4Ys]
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzmEF2tusNs&feature=related]
陳婕, 我覺得這首歌很适合你唱。
歌曲要好听，但更重要的是要有真情實感，才能打動人心，引起共鳴，廣為流傳。歌手要体會到歌曲的真情實感，才能唱得好。
大部分人都有這种經歷：
在茫茫人海中，偶然看到的一張美麗的臉，第一次看見，卻似曾相識， 讓人難以忘怀。那個惊鴻一瞥，回眸一笑的美麗瞬間，總是勾起人“有情人難成眷屬”的淡淡的哀愁。
這种真實的体驗，被寫成了中文歌曲， 那就是傳奇：
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxNnK_r8mTA]
同樣真實的体驗，被寫成了英文歌曲，那就是James Blunt - You're Beautiful:
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjUaWiy_QXc]
陳婕, 我覺得 “You're Beautiful” 很适合你唱，可惜歌詞是男生唱給女生的。你得將歌詞改一改。
將來的演出你可以考慮在适當的時候穿一次旗袍，比如你決定要唱新上海灘 (the Mandarin version)時。你的個子夠高(You seems like about1.78 meter tall?), 你穿旗袍會好看，可以顯現東方女性的魅力。
你將來在歌唱事業和演藝（演電影演電視劇）會很成功。穿旗袍會讓人們知道你的扮像益古益今。
還是很想听上海姑娘陳婕唱一些超高音的歌。陳婕， 你下次會唱一些超高音的歌嗎？
別人唱超高音的歌會吃力，陳婕唱超高音的歌簡直是揮洒自如，游刃有余。讚！
陳婕,
大多数的人是因为“後知後覺”而认识你。由“後知後覺”我想到了几项关于选歌的原则：
1） 要选好听的歌。不好听的歌你唱功再好，表演得再出色，也是吃力不讨好。
2） 求新求变当然好，但是也不是每一首歌都要求新求变， 或是新歌。“後知後覺”并不是一首新歌， 你不是第一个唱“後知後覺”的人（2010[超級偶像]就有歌手唱过），也不会是最后一个。但你可能是把“後知後覺”唱红，让最多人知道并喜欢“後知後 覺”的人。关键是“後知後覺” 好听， 并适合你的歌， 能表现你的
特长的歌。
3）你要知道你的特色。 人们买周杰伦的唱片，绝对知道他们买的是什么。人们买你的唱片，绝对知道他们买的是什么。你可以求新求变， 有各种风格，但你的特色不能少，否则人们会失望。
4）现阶段，每个歌手各有特色，求新求变是重要，但用你的特色得高分也很重要。你要是失分回家了，你也不会有机会求新求变了。
我 觉得你会把张雨生 的“大海”唱得非常好，甚至比“後知後覺”还好：“大海”不是一首新歌， 丁噹唱过，但丁噹高音唱得吃力，她的声音也有点单薄。张雨生唱“大海”唱得非常好。你也会把张雨生 的“大海”唱得非常好，而且会唱得出新鲜感（女声唱“大海”会与张雨生男女声唱“大海”完全不一样），你可能会是把“大海” 唱得最好的女声， 可能比张雨生唱得更好。下一次唱“大海”吧！充满期待。

记得徘徊要念成"徘怀“而不是"徘回"。

陳婕,
Even those who posted negative reviews on YouTube know you ARE the best singer in this competition. However, the best singer may NOT win at the end. That is why we are trying to help you to win.
My following comments are for your future sing selection, NOT for this week. It is too late to change songs for this week now. Whatever you have chosen for this week, just go for it and sing your best.
You have been doing very well for the past 2 competition, BUT you are NOT in your best performing state yet：If you are in your in your best performing state, based on you capability, you should be way above the crowd, and the scores should NOT be so close to other singers. Your score should be way higher than them.
To win this competition and also for your future music career, beauty is not enough, singing well is NOT enough, most important thing is you need to be smart. You need to be able know what you customers (In your case, it is the judges and the audience, and the people who will buy your music CD and DVD in the future) want, deliver what they want, meet or EXCEEDING their expectation.
There is a reason why some of the songs are POPULAR and last for many years. They are able to meet the needs and demand of a large percentage of the population. There is also a good reason why some of the songs are obscure and people barely know about them.
We’ll get our friends and relatives to vote for you, but what we can do is limited. YOU are the best person to get more votes for yourself by picking 好听and POPULAR songs.
For the future competition, especially after you get into top 5, you should pick more POPULAR songs by 张惠妹 and 张雨生 because their notes are high, require power to sing well, and you need to be able to handle them accurately. NOT everyone can do that.
As an architect, what I do everyday is to create visual beauty, 求新求变 is good, but sometimes pure 新 will NOT be accepted by people. People need a transition.
What you do everyday is to create visual beauty and 听觉上的美。Maybe a good way to pick songs is to pick some of the好听and POPULAR songs sung by male voice before, and when you re-sing the song in female voice, it creates a new feeling. These kinds of songs are much easier to be accepted by people. Like 張芸京《一場遊戲一場夢》:
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FGANIr6kaw&feature=related]
Pick the right songs, pick the好听and POPULAR songs, and then nail these songs with your great performance. Make people fall in love with you for your songs. If you can do that, your fans base will be #1 instead of the current #7in this competition. God help those who help themselves. What you do everyday will determine your future and your destiny.
Forget about the songs by the 2nd class singers. There is a reason their songs are not heard of by many people.
Pick the songs by superstars, the top tier singers. Your competitors have been picking better songs than you so far like “Beat it”, 狼,新不了情. That is why they have a much bigger fan base than you. You need to catch up. You can NOT afford to make any more mistakes in song choice.
Pick the songs of superstars, sing like a superstar, dance like a superstar, dress like a super star, walk like a superstar, talk like a superstar, and you know what? You’ll be a superstar before you know it.
陳婕,
The followings songs fit you:

五月天 突然好想你:

陳婕,
這倆次比賽你的分數都很高，可是我總覺得你還沒有進入你自己的最佳競技狀態。否則的話，以你唱歌的實力，別的選手的分數不會与你的分數那麼接近，差距應該很大才對。
It is still the song choice. Can you pick any of the following:
張惠妹, 張雨生：
大海
我的未來不是夢
天天想你
These songs are in your comfort zone, but NOT in other candidates’ comfort zone. You want to choose songs in YOUR comfort zone, and make others compete with you per YOUR terms. It is in the top 6 competition now, I think you need to start to come out way ahead in the game. If you pick these songs, you’ll be 勢如破竹，銳不可擋in this competition.
