TAIPEI: Mandopop singers and production staff alike mourned the loss of 60-year-old singer Feng Fei Fei, who passed away on January 3 after succumbing to lung cancer.

Many stars took to their micro blogs to share their memories of Feng and express their sorrow over her death.

“I used to go to Feng Fei Fei’s concert together with my mum.”

“She was my mum’s favourite singer. Life is so fragile,” wrote Taiwan singer Landy Wen.

Malaysian singer Fish Leong said in one of her micro blog post that she had once performed Feng Fei Fei’s “Dream Pursuer” when she was a young schoolgirl and “still get a tug at my heart when I hear her song”.

S.H.E’s Ella Chen was equally saddened by Feng’s passing.

“This news of Feng Fei Fei passing is too shocking and sad. I hope she will now fly to her loved one,” said Chen.

Singers Christine Fan and Tanya Chua mourned the loss of both Whitney Houston and Feng Fei Fei, on their micro blogs.

“Both of your music will live on in my heart forever,” wrote Christine Fan.

“We have lost another great diva. R.I.P Feng Fei Fei,” Tanya Chua said in a micro blog post on Monday.

People from the music industry who have had the chance to work with Feng in the past, expressed their grief as well.

Popular Taiwan lyricist, Hsu Chang De, who had worked with Feng on a number of occasions, described her as being elegant yet low-key.

“While working with her, the best way is to be simple and clear.”

“She is like my mum; she would call me Ah De in Taiwanese. I feel sad thinking about her songs, which have walked with me throughout my life.”

The director of Singapore music label Hype Records, Ken Lim, who had organised Feng’s 2004, 2006, 2008 and 2010 concerts in Singapore, praised Feng for being “the finest example of a true artiste”, in a statement to the media.

“Throughout her outstanding career, her persistence to provide her audience nothing less than her very best efforts in all her endeavors has created countless special moments for her audiences,” said Lim.

“She will always remain very special. We are blessed to have known her as a true friend and extremely privileged to have had the opportunity to work with an inspiring legend.”
