Na Ying
Na Ying is a Chinese singer. Rising to fame in the late 1980s, Na signed with Linfair Records in 1993, becoming one of the first singers from mainland China to join a Taiwanese label and subsequently gaining popularity across Greater China. In 2001, she became the first and only mainland Chinese singer to win the Best Mandarin Female Singer at the Golden Melody Awards for her song Sad and Romantic from the eponymous album (2000). Since the 2010s, she has become a staple of music shows, serving as a coach for eight seasons of The Voice of China from 2012 to 2021, and participating in Season 1 and 4 of Mask Singer (China) (2016; 2019); Our Song (2019); Season 2 and 3 of Sisters Who Make Waves (2021–2022), where she won the champion in Season 2; Infinity and Beyond 2023; and Singer 2024, where she won the champion.
Na was born in Shenyang, Liaoning of ethnic Manchu parents.[citation needed] She is of Manchu descent. She became a member of the Liaoning Juvenile Broadcasting Chorus in 1979, and the Shenyang Singing and Dancing Troupe in 1983. In 1983, Na won a national singing contest, where she was noticed by composer and later mentor Gu Jianfen (谷建芬).
After recording demos for singers such as Mao Amin and releasing cover albums, mostly featuring songs by Su Rui, Na had her first hit song "Shan Gougou" (山沟沟), followed by "Shan Bu Zhuan Shui Zhuan" (山不转水转). In 1991, she released her first album entitled "A single woman like me" (像我这样的单身女子), which had a moderate reception. Two years later, in 1993, she released the album "I Hope My Dreams Come True" (但愿好梦都成真) which was not popular either.
She released her first major album Dreaming With You, in 1994. Following the release of that album, she released several additional albums, becoming one of the most popular Mandarin-language artists of Mainland China.[citation needed]
At the 1998 Spring Festival Gala show hosted by CCTV, Na sang a duet "Meet in '98" (相約一九九八) with Faye Wong. Wong had already achieved fame in Hong Kong and elsewhere, but the performance with Na brought her to superstar status in China itself.
Na had a relationship with Chinese footballer Gao Feng and a son by him, they separated in 2005. She married Meng Tong in 2006, and they had a daughter in 2007.
Although she devoted time to her family and children from 2002 to 2009, she never quit singing, and had a prominent role at the closing ceremony of the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics.
At the close of 2009 she performed the concert "20 Years of Na", a retrospective of her stage career, at the Capital Gymnasium. Although her 2009 single "The Journey of Love" topped the charts wherever it was released, her early song "Follow Your Instinct" remains her favourite.
