Album
My Pride is an album recorded by Joey Yung, released in 2003. "My Pride" was Yung's fifth studio recorded album and garnered Yung with the "Most Popular Female Singer" award for that year.[1] The title song, "My Pride," was a cover of Fiona Fung's English song, "Proud of You"[2] and was named one of the greatest Cantonese songs of all time.[3]
Song
Proud of You/My Pride (Chinese: 我的驕傲), sung by Cantopop female vocalist Joey Yung, is the title song from her 2003 album "My Pride". The melody was originally part of a English commercial sung by another Cantopop artist, Fiona Fung in 2003. Joey Yung was then requisitioned to record the commercial in Mandarin and later recorded the full song in Cantonese. Shortly after, Yung released a Mandarin version of My Pride titled 揮著翅膀的女孩. The song has earned more than 50 awards in the United States, Canada, Hong Kong, China and Taiwan.[4] In 2010, My Pride was covered by Hong Kong acappella group Metro Vocal Group in their album Music for a Metropolis.[5]
