KrisWorld Recommends: 5 Stefanie Sun Songs to Check Out

The Mandopop singer is regarded as one of Singapore’s most successful artists. Ahead of her first concert tour in a decade, we highlight some of her more recent hits from the 2010s and 2020s.

Listen to a Stefanie Sun song and chances are it’ll resonate deeply. Her tracks transport you back to the simpler days when everything felt full of possibilities.

As Sun prepares to make her highly anticipated return to the stage with her first concert tour in a decade, let’s take a moment to look back on some of her more recent hits from the past ten-ish years.

5) 日落 (Afterwards)

Released in 2025, 日落 (Afterwards) waxes lyrical about living in the moment and embracing life’s continuous cycles. The lyrics “视线之外无形同载 (beyond what is seen, [we are] invisibly together)” speak of a kind of connection that’s beyond physical presence, highlighting the enduring nature of relationships and memories. This track perfectly sets the stage for her AUT NIHILO tour — her first concert tour in a decade — which kicks off in Singapore and will travel to Shanghai, Shenzhen, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Malaysia.

4) 样子 (Appearance)

This ballad is the theme song of the Chinese drama series Love Endures (要久久爱), which stars Yang Zi, Fan Chengcheng, Zhu Yanmanzi, and Wang Qianyue. The series follows six childhood friends from Aerospace City who grow up together but eventually drift apart, and how they reunite as adults and rediscover their original aspirations. “样子” reflects the journey of these six friends, as Sun sings about holding onto the dreams of your youth and keeping a child-like innocence even as you grow older.

Fun fact: Sun’s involvement is not just limited to singing the theme song — she cameo-ed in the series finale, and the show also features her other hit songs.

3) 半句再见 (A Half-Goodbye)

Serving as the main theme for 2016’s At Cafe 6, a film about high school romance and growing up, this song explores the complexities of farewells. Its poignant lyrics capture the emotional weight of parting ways and will resonate with anyone who had to break up or leave someone without getting proper closure. The track’s raw emotion and simplicity make it a standout in Sun’s repertoire.

2) 尚好的青春 (Best Days of My Youth)

From her 2014 album Kepler, this song is a nostalgic ode to the fleeting nature of youth. It was originally a song in the Minnan dialect, but Sun liked the song so much that she decided to sing it in Mandarin and dedicate it to her fans, many of whom have grown up with her. “尚好的青春 (Best Days of My Youth)” emphasises the importance of cherishing moments before they slip away, urging listeners to appreciate the present.

1) 愚人的国度 (Fool’s Kingdom)

Featured on her 2011 album It’s Time, this song explores how love can cloud one’s judgment and cause one to make bad decisions. The title itself suggests so from the get-go.

“愚人的国度 (Fool’s Kingdom)” touches on how people often overlook flaws and blindly trust their partners despite evidence to the contrary. The track’s lyrics are simple yet powerful, and they perfectly capture the vulnerability that comes with falling in love.
