Revered as one of the most influential icons in the Chinese music world, legendary singer-songwriter and producer Jonathan Lee (李宗盛) is set to make a spectacular return to Malaysia with his acclaimed “Those Songs Through the Years” World Tour. The concert will take place on Saturday, November 22, 2025, at 8PM at the Axiata Arena, Bukit Jalil. This upgraded world tour marks Lee’s long-awaited comeback to the iconic 10,000-seat arena stage—his first performance there in 11 years, promising fans an unforgettable evening of timeless classics and heartfelt storytelling.
Throughout his illustrious career, Lee has written and produced more than 300 iconic songs, collaborating with nearly 70 artists, and leaving an enduring mark on generations of music lovers. From tender love ballads to profound reflections on life, his works have transcended time and borders, resonating deeply with audiences across the global Chinese community for over half a century.
Reflecting on his journey, Lee once shared with fans:
“You’ve been far too kind, giving me more applause than I deserve. I’m just a songwriter. As I grow older, I want to weave my aging, my fears, and my uncertainties into my music. And I hope that those who listened to my songs in their youth can still feel—even after all these decades—that I understand the feelings they’ve never spoken aloud.”
The 2025 “Those Songs Through The Years” World Tour invites audiences on a powerful journey through Lee’s musical legacy. More than a concert, it is an intimate experience that revisits the origins of his most celebrated works, rekindling the melodies and lyrics that have accompanied listeners through life’s defining moments.
With a setlist featuring beloved classics such as “Hill” (山丘), “Common Folks’ Song” (凡人歌), and “I Truly Love You” (我是真的爱你), Lee promises to once again stir emotions and touch hearts. Known for his sincerity and warmth, he engages with audiences like an old friend—sharing reflections and stories that resonate universally. Each performance is both a celebration of his extraordinary career and a testament to the profound bond he shares with his fans.
