In order to make it easier for everyone to get to know Chen Jia, I wrote the following very long message, divided into three parts: (1) An Introduction to Chen Jia, (2) Does Chen Jia Deliberately Imitate Teresa Teng in Singing? and (3) Some Selected Songs of Chen Jia. You can read/listen to (by tapping the blue hyperlinks) the full text, or read/listen to the part you are interested in. (1) An Introduction to Chen Jia Chen Jia, born in the 80s, was born and raised in Beijing. Since the age of three, she studied piano with a professor of the Central Conservatory of Music. She passed the piano performance level exam at the age of 13, and at the age of 18 she took the national high school gifted piano students exam of Tsinghua University and obtained the first level (highest level) certificate, and the second place in the national high school students piano exam of Beijing University. At the age of 11, she was admitted to the Juvenile and Women’s Choir affiliated to the China National Symphony Orchestra. During the ten years in the group, she visited USA, Russia, Italy, Japan, HK, Macao and Taiwan many times, and participated in hundreds of performances and won many awards. She graduated from the Dept. of Finance of the University of International Business and Economics, and later went to Germany to study, obtained a master's degree in International Business Management from the University of Hamburg with excellent results, and returned to China to work in Bank of China Securities International Co., Ltd., specializing in A-share listing, a dream job with a high salary and job security. Chen Jia was obsessed with Teresa Teng when she was young. She collected a lot of Teng’s music tapes, CDs, posters, etc. When she learned that Teresa Teng had passed away, she was so sad that she hid in her bedroom and wept grievously for a whole week. Whenever she went to Taiwan, she tried her best to make time to go to pay respects to Teresa Teng. During a business trip in 2011, she held an 1.5 hours online solo concert in her hotel room to commemorate the 16th anniversary of Teresa Teng’s death. She sang a number of Teresa Teng's songs in multiple languages in different periods. ua-cam.com/video/Krcp9UjqoOM/v-deo.html She was accidentally discovered by Teresa Teng’s third brother, and was invited to complete the album " 淡淡幽情 2" for Teresa Teng. After considering for more than a year, she finally gave up her well-paid and secured job to complete the album that her idol failed to finish. At the end of 2012, she signed a contract with the Teresa Teng Cultural and Education Foundation (TTCEF), and became a professional singer. Wang Jing, born in 1991, participated in the protagonist selection contest for the musical "Fall in Love with Teresa Teng" in 2010. She stood out from more than 5,000 contestants and acted as the main actress Teresa Teng in the play. She signed a contract with TTCEF in the same year, more than two years earlier than Chen Jia. Wang Jing and Chen Jia were the only two contracted singers of TTCEF. Being a contracted singer of TTCEF signifies the singer's singing skills have been affirmed, and is the singer's honor . Chen Jia is regarded by many as the best inheritor of Teresa Teng’s songs or Teresa’s successor. This is in line with Teresa’s third brother’s choice of her to complete the album "淡淡幽情 2". She is still the only singer who can accurately recite Teresa Teng's songs in various languages in various periods. Chen Jia has a wide singing range. She also covers beautifully songs of other singers in China, HK, Taiwan and Japan, and, in my opinion, some are even better than the original. Not only her Cantonese pronunciation is excellent (very few northetn singers can pronunce Cantonese so accurately) , but also her voice is very suitable for singing Cantonese songs, and sings the charm of Cantonese songs, and many of her fans love her Cantonese songs even more than her Mandarin ones; also she once said that if a song is available in both Mandarin and Japanese, she usually chooses to sing the Japanese version, and, indeed, the Japanese version of the same song she sings is usually better than the Mandarin version. Chen Jia can compose and write lyrics, and has her own songs. Many of her songs can be found in the program “輕談國學歌風雅” produced by the Chinese University of HK, which is played by her as the singer, music consultant and program host. ua-cam.com/play/PLuIAqtuIe6ADLv0Nv5NJizhy8ljQw9-l3.html In my opinion, Chen Jia posses excellent "voice, beauty and art" as well as "virtues, wisdom and talents", and is a rare talented singer and is loved and admired by her fans: **Voice: Although her voice is close to that of Teresa Teng, she still has her own unique beautiful voice: sweet, mellow, fresh and bright. **Beauty: Medium figured, dignified and pretty, gentle and elegant. **Art: An Excellent Live Singer: live singing close to studio standards with no breathing noises, and no need to use teleprompters; Singing Characteristics: natural and comfortable, never pretentious or showing off singing skills, loudness, pace and transposition are particularly good, delicate, charming, emotional, and the artistic conception of lyrics is very well expressed. ** Virtues: Low-key, frank, perseverant, self-damanding, respectful to her teachers, loves children and small animals. **Wisdom: Intelligent, well-spoken, articles showing depth of thought. **Talents: A crossover talent: studied and worked in the financial sector, and has not received professional vocal training, but sings professionally; sings Mandarin, Cantonese, Fujian, Japanese and English songs accurately, although she has never lived in any of the related places except Beijing; can play piano, compose, write lyrics and dance ballet. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Chen Jia held about forty solo concerts each year. Up to the end of 2020, a total of 10 albums (8 in China and 2 in Japan) have been released, and won the Top 10 Hi-Fi Albums Award and the LP Album of the Year Award for several years, and the 2019 Female Voice Album of the Year Award and the 2020 Best Hi-Fi Vocal Award. ua-cam.com/video/vGUekaGwaTQ/v-deo.html She released her first pure Cantonese album "Seems Like an Old Friend" ( 似是故人來) in August of last year. It covers classic Cantonese songs by top HK singers. Teresa Teng didn't sing any of these songs before. ua-cam.com/video/dI56FZsns1E/v-deo.html (2) Does Chen Jia Deliberately Imitate Teresa Teng in Singing? When Chen Jia was a teenager, she listened to and sang Teresa Teng's songs only. She said these songs are in line with her nature and resonate with her since she was a toddler. Every day she spent her free time on imitating Teresa Teng's singing, and tried her best to sing as close to Teng as possible. But as she grew older, she no longer deliberately sought to imitate Teng’s voice, but from a deeper level, studying Teng’s singing skills and vocal methods. Over the years, these skills and methods have been thoroughly drilled into her, and now can be freely applied by her as part of her own singing skills. Also, as her own voice is close to that of Teresa Teng, she just sings naturally, and doesn't need to deliberately imitate Teresa Teng. The followings are the pertinent interviews, and songs for comparison: 1. The third brother of Teresa Teng said that Chen Jia's own voice was close to that of Teresa Teng. She did not deliberately imitate Teresa Teng's voice. If she did, she could only sing a few close songs. It was impossible to sing so many songs so close. 2. In an interview in New York in May 2017, Chen Jia said her singing is a combination of the singing skills and music knowledge she learned from Teresa Teng, her choir conductor and her piano teacher, rather than just a mere imitation of Teresa Teng. 3. In November of the same year, Chen Jia said on Changzhou Radio, China that she didn't listen to Teresa Teng's singing anymore. She explained if you twist yourself to deliberately imitate others, you will be out of touch with your own essence, and will not sing naturally or sing well. She now sings only by her own feelings about the song. 4. Many of Teresa Teng's songs in Chen Jia's albums have been re-arranged, so they are not simply imitated. Although Chen Jia sang a lot of songs very close to Teresa Teng, actually she also sang many songs with her own way of interpretation. For example, the following songs (first sung by Teresa Teng, and then covered by Chen Jia): 千言萬語 ua-cam.com/video/iuXzZB_PBQA/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/H6ATS8O9drM/v-deo.html 你怎麼說 ua-cam.com/video/tBOk7nPrxBE/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/ALA7Yvg9nkk/v-deo.html 天涯歌女 ua-cam.com/video/4XNPZbyGcM4/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/QkyHUbfTge8/v-deo.html 人面桃花 ua-cam.com/video/M1Zgfnn44io/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/Odg23UyEhMA/v-deo.html 愛的箴言 ua-cam.com/video/VTC-FhTKZFc/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/SDHAHBnB1HQ/v-deo.html (3) Some Selected Songs by Chen Jia Mandarin: 驀然回首(Original) ua-cam.com/video/ZCh2s8sPRj4/v-deo.html 春江淚(Original) ua-cam.com/video/S5F5wOH32wA/v-deo.html 在水一方(Live) ua-cam.com/video/ugcS_clyCcE/v-deo.html 臉 ua-cam.com/video/q4p-xwpZSCk/v-deo.html 雲河(Live) ua-cam.com/video/xnIuhu5rvRQ/v-deo.html 梨花又開放(Live) ua-cam.com/video/lr478oNutvQ/v-deo.html 紅豆詞 ua-cam.com/video/um_M9we6XAo/v-deo.html 一剪梅 ua-cam.com/video/yn7eokHYd78/v-deo.html 嘆十聲(Live) ua-cam.com/video/cQ6-1mbDX8c/v-deo.html Cantonese： 有誰共鳴(Live) ua-cam.com/video/3GvKwTQ4A90/v-deo.html 無奈(Live) ua-cam.com/video/h0eb9pAXej/v-deo.html 啼笑姻緣 ua-cam.com/video/w8w4j0bSOTw/v-deo.html 如風(Live) ua-cam.com/video/Og9IvyhjdM0/v-deo.html 月半小夜曲(Live) ua-cam.com/video/GR17Lbw0qtg/v-deo.html Fujian： 落雨聲 ua-cam.com/video/YMQVYTdv5r0/v-deo.html Japanese： 風姿花傳 ua-cam.com/video/F1ElsReDPFc/v-deo.html English: Killing me softly with his song ua-cam.com/video/ADEY4e441lY/v-deo.html German: Was ich dir sagen will ua-cam.com/video/FTAc3DbGKjwJ/v-deo.html Russian: 美好的遠方(Live) ua-cam.com/video/U_X_ptMiO6E/v-deo.html Updated: March 27, 2021

好喜欢陈佳，一代佳人。
她自己的父母親呢？
她自己的父母親呢？不需要表揚一下嗎
生活中沒有追求美~就白活了~天底下配得上您的奇男子應該不多~世間流動的以濁物為主
这是才女一个，前途无量
看來看去, 誰娶到她真有福氣!
都說了一路牽著我們的手
怎麼是你自己先白了頭
都說要把我們 護在身后
怎麼是你自己原地逗留
年華似水
你是否看了太多停停走走
年華易老
你是否有過青春的愁
只是驀然回首，驀然回首
誰的年少沒有你皺紋裡的擔憂
驀然回首，驀然回首
誰的背影沒有你眼神裡的溫柔
固執的守候
都說了要做我們夢的渡口
怎麼不見你的一葉輕舟
都說最好不過 放我飛走
怎麼是你獨自燈下回眸
啊、原來是陳佳的作品，作曲兼弹琴，真是天才女子。
💕💕💕💕💕

為了方便大家多認識陳佳，我寫了以下很長的留言，分為三部分：(一) 陳佳簡介，(二) 陳佳有没有刻意模仿鄧麗君唱歌？(三) 陳佳的一些精選歌曲。各位可以讀/聽(點擊藍色超連結)全文，或只讀/聽自己有興趣的部分。
(一)陳佳簡介
陳佳，八十後，土生土長北京人， 三歲起師從中央音樂學院鋼琴系教授學習鋼琴， 13歲考獲鋼琴演奏級， 18歲考獲清華大學全國高中鋼琴特長生第一級(最高級)證書，及北京大學全國高中生鋼琴考試第二名。 11歲考入中國交響樂團附屬少年及女子合唱團，在團十年期間，多次出訪美國、俄羅斯、義大利、日本、港、澳、台等地，參加各類演出數百場，並多次獲獎。畢業於「 對外經濟貿易大學」金融學系，後赴德國留學， 以極優異成績取得德國漢堡大學國際企業管理碩士學位， 學成回國任職中銀證券國際有限公司， 專責為A股上市，待遇優厚又穩定，是份夢寐以求的工作。
陳佳年幼時極之痴迷鄧麗君， 收藏了很多鄧的唱帶、唱片、海報等等， 當悉知鄧麗君去世，她傷心極了，躲在房間痛哭了一整個星期， 每逢到台灣，都盡量抽時間去拜祭鄧麗君。
2011年出差時在酒店房間開了一個長達一個半小時的網上個人演唱會，紀念鄧麗君逝世16週年， 唱了多首鄧麗君不同時期多種語言的歌曲，ua-cam.com/video/Krcp9UjqoOM/v-deo.html
偶然被鄧麗君三哥發現， 被邀請替鄧麗君完成《淡淡幽情2》專輯， 她考慮了一年多，最終放棄高薪又隱定的金融工作去完成偶像未能完成的專輯，於2012年底簽約鄧麗君文教基金會，成為職業歌手。
王靜，九一年出生，2010年參加舞臺歌唱劇《愛上鄧麗君》主角選拔大賽， 從五千多名參賽者脱穎而出，並演劇中女主角鄧麗君， 同年簽約鄧麗君文教基金會， 比陳佳早簽兩年多。 王靜和陳佳是該基金會唯一的兩位簽約歌手，能簽約該基金會是歌藝得到肯定， 是歌手的榮譽。
陳佳被很多人視為鄧麗君歌曲最佳傳承人或鄧麗君接班人， 這跟鄧麗君三哥選擇她去完成《淡淡幽情 2》 專輯是互相吻合的，她仍然是目前唯一歌手能精準背唱鄧麗君各個時期多種語言的歌曲。
陳佳的歌路甚廣，也翻唱中港台日前輩歌手的歌曲，幾乎全都唱得非常動聽，個人認為有些歌曲唱得比原唱更好； 粵語字正腔圓 (極少北方歌手粵語發音能那麼標準)，嗓音很適合唱粵語歌曲， 能唱出粵語歌曲的韻味， 甚至很多歌迷喜歡她的粵語歌多過她的國語歌；她又曾說過若一首歌曲 ，國語版本和日語版本都有，她通常會選唱日語版本， 確實如此，同一首歌她唱的日語版本通常比國語版本動聽。
陳佳會作曲填詞，有自己的原創歌曲， 很多她的歌曲可在香港中文大學製作的視頻《輕談國學歌風雅》看到， 該視頻由她擔任主唱、音樂顧問和節目主持。 ua-cam.com/play/PLuIAqtuIe6ADLv0Nv5NJizhy8ljQw9-l3.html
個人認為陳佳「聲色藝」俱佳， 並「德智才」也兼備， 是個不可多得的才女歌手， 深受歌迷喜愛和欣賞：
**聲： 聲線雖近似鄧麗君，但仍有自己的獨特靚聲： 甜美、 圓潤、清新、明麗。
**色： 身材適中、端莊秀麗、溫文爾雅。
**藝： 現場實力唱將：現場歌唱接近錄音室水平、換氣無聲、 不用提詞機； 歌唱特色： 自然舒服、不做作或炫技、發音輕重快慢和轉音掌握特別好、細膩、有韻味、富感情、歌詞的意境表達得非常好。
**德： 低調、 坦率、有毅力、自我要求高、尊師重道、喜愛兒童和小動物。
**智： 天資聰穎、談吐得體、文章有內涵。
**才： 是個跨界才女: 修讀和從事金融行業 ，未曾接受過專業聲樂訓練，卻唱出專業水平； 精準唱國、粵、閩南、日、英語等歌曲， 雖除北京外，從未在有關地方居住過； 會彈琴、作曲、填詞、 跳芭蕾舞。
疫情前，陳佳每年個人巡迴演唱會約四十場。 至去年(2020)底，共發行十張專輯(八張在中國、二張在日本) ， 多次獲得十大發燒唱片奬和最佳黑膠唱片奬， 並獲得2019年度最佳女聲獎和2020年度最佳HiFi人聲奬ua-cam.com/video/vGUekaGwaTQ/v-deo.html
去年八月，她推出首張純粵語專輯《 似是故人來》，翻唱香港多位著名歌手的經典粵語歌曲， 鄧麗君從未唱過這些歌曲。ua-cam.com/video/dI56FZsns1E/v-deo.html
(二)陳佳有沒有刻意模仿鄧麗君唱歌？
陳佳少年時只聽和唱鄧麗君歌曲， 她說這些歌曲跟她的本質吻合， 自幼兒便產生共鳴。每天有空便模仿鄧麗君唱歌，盡量唱得跟鄧接近，但當年紀漸長，她不再刻意追求模仿鄧的聲音， 而是從更深的層次出發，研究鄧的演唱技巧和發聲方法等，經多年硏究， 這些技巧和方法已深深融入她的骨子裏，成為她自己的歌唱技巧的一部分，能運用自如，再加上本身的聲線已接近鄧麗君的聲線，自然地唱便可以了，無須刻意模仿鄧麗君。
以下是有關訪問和歌唱實例比較：
1. 鄧麗君三哥說陳佳本身的聲音就接近鄧麗君的聲音， 她沒有刻意模仿鄧麗君的聲音， 若刻意模仿只能唱得幾首歌相似，不可能唱這麼多首歌都這麼接近。
2. 2017年5月陳佳在美國紐約接受訪問時說， 她的歌唱是綜合了從鄧麗君、合唱團導師和鋼琴老師所學得的歌唱技巧和音樂知識，而不只是單纯模仿鄧麗君。
3. 同年11月陳佳在中國常州電台說，她再沒有聽鄧麗君的歌了， 又解釋說若扭曲自己去刻意模仿別人， 便會令到自己跟自己的本質脫節，不會唱得自然， 不會唱得好聽， 她現在只憑自己對歌曲的感覺去唱。
4. 陳佳專輯裏很多鄧麗君歌曲是經重新編曲， 不是單純模仿。
雖然陳佳唱很多歌跟鄧麗君非常接近， 但其實也有不少歌她有著自己的演繹方式， 例如下面的幾首歌 (先由鄧麗君唱， 再由陳佳翻唱)：

In order to make it easier for everyone to get to know Chen Jia, I wrote the following very long message, divided into three parts: (1) An Introduction to Chen Jia, (2) Does Chen Jia Deliberately Imitate Teresa Teng in Singing? and (3) Some Selected Songs of Chen Jia. You can read/listen to (by tapping the blue hyperlinks) the full text, or read/listen to the part you are interested in.
(1) An Introduction to Chen Jia
Chen Jia, born in the 80s, was born and raised in Beijing. Since the age of three, she studied piano with a professor of the Central Conservatory of Music. She passed the piano performance level exam at the age of 13, and at the age of 18 she took the national high school gifted piano students exam of Tsinghua University and obtained the first level (highest level) certificate, and the second place in the national high school students piano exam of Beijing University. At the age of 11, she was admitted to the Juvenile and Women’s Choir affiliated to the China National Symphony Orchestra. During the ten years in the group, she visited USA, Russia, Italy, Japan, HK, Macao and Taiwan many times, and participated in hundreds of performances and won many awards. She graduated from the Dept. of Finance of the University of International Business and Economics, and later went to Germany to study, obtained a master's degree in International Business Management from the University of Hamburg with excellent results, and returned to China to work in Bank of China Securities International Co., Ltd., specializing in A-share listing, a dream job with a high salary and job security.
Chen Jia was obsessed with Teresa Teng when she was young. She collected a lot of Teng’s music tapes, CDs, posters, etc. When she learned that Teresa Teng had passed away, she was so sad that she hid in her bedroom and wept grievously for a whole week. Whenever she went to Taiwan, she tried her best to make time to go to pay respects to Teresa Teng. During a business trip in 2011, she held an 1.5 hours online solo concert in her hotel room to commemorate the 16th anniversary of Teresa Teng’s death. She sang a number of Teresa Teng's songs in multiple languages in different periods. ua-cam.com/video/Krcp9UjqoOM/v-deo.html
She was accidentally discovered by Teresa Teng’s third brother, and was invited to complete the album " 淡淡幽情 2" for Teresa Teng. After considering for more than a year, she finally gave up her well-paid and secured job to complete the album that her idol failed to finish. At the end of 2012, she signed a contract with the Teresa Teng Cultural and Education Foundation (TTCEF), and became a professional singer.
Wang Jing, born in 1991, participated in the protagonist selection contest for the musical "Fall in Love with Teresa Teng" in 2010. She stood out from more than 5,000 contestants and acted as the main actress Teresa Teng in the play. She signed a contract with TTCEF in the same year, more than two years earlier than Chen Jia. Wang Jing and Chen Jia were the only two contracted singers of TTCEF. Being a contracted singer of TTCEF signifies the singer's singing skills have been affirmed, and is the singer's honor .
Chen Jia is regarded by many as the best inheritor of Teresa Teng’s songs or Teresa’s successor. This is in line with Teresa’s third brother’s choice of her to complete the album "淡淡幽情 2". She is still the only singer who can accurately recite Teresa Teng's songs in various languages in various periods.
Chen Jia has a wide singing range. She also covers beautifully songs of other singers in China, HK, Taiwan and Japan, and, in my opinion, some are even better than the original. Not only her Cantonese pronunciation is excellent (very few northetn singers can pronunce Cantonese so accurately) , but also her voice is very suitable for singing Cantonese songs, and sings the charm of Cantonese songs, and many of her fans love her Cantonese songs even more than her Mandarin ones; also she once said that if a song is available in both Mandarin and Japanese, she usually chooses to sing the Japanese version, and, indeed, the Japanese version of the same song she sings is usually better than the Mandarin version.
Chen Jia can compose and write lyrics, and has her own songs. Many of her songs can be found in the program “輕談國學歌風雅” produced by the Chinese University of HK, which is played by her as the singer, music consultant and program host. ua-cam.com/play/PLuIAqtuIe6ADLv0Nv5NJizhy8ljQw9-l3.html
In my opinion, Chen Jia posses excellent "voice, beauty and art" as well as "virtues, wisdom and talents", and is a rare talented singer and is loved and admired by her fans:
**Voice: Although her voice is close to that of Teresa Teng, she still has her own unique beautiful voice: sweet, mellow, fresh and bright.
**Beauty: Medium figured, dignified and pretty, gentle and elegant.
**Art: An Excellent Live Singer: live singing close to studio standards with no breathing noises, and no need to use teleprompters; Singing Characteristics: natural and comfortable, never pretentious or showing off singing skills, loudness, pace and transposition are particularly good, delicate, charming, emotional, and the artistic conception of lyrics is very well expressed.
** Virtues: Low-key, frank, perseverant, self-damanding, respectful to her teachers, loves children and small animals.
**Wisdom: Intelligent, well-spoken, articles showing depth of thought.
**Talents: A crossover talent: studied and worked in the financial sector, and has not received professional vocal training, but sings professionally; sings Mandarin, Cantonese, Fujian, Japanese and English songs accurately, although she has never lived in any of the related places except Beijing; can play piano, compose, write lyrics and dance ballet.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Chen Jia held about forty solo concerts each year. Up to the end of 2020, a total of 10 albums (8 in China and 2 in Japan) have been released, and won the Top 10 Hi-Fi Albums Award and the LP Album of the Year Award for several years, and the 2019 Female Voice Album of the Year Award and the 2020 Best Hi-Fi Vocal Award. ua-cam.com/video/vGUekaGwaTQ/v-deo.html
She released her first pure Cantonese album "Seems Like an Old Friend" ( 似是故人來) in August of last year. It covers classic Cantonese songs by top HK singers. Teresa Teng didn't sing any of these songs before. ua-cam.com/video/dI56FZsns1E/v-deo.html
(2) Does Chen Jia Deliberately Imitate Teresa Teng in Singing?
When Chen Jia was a teenager, she listened to and sang Teresa Teng's songs only. She said these songs are in line with her nature and resonate with her since she was a toddler. Every day she spent her free time on imitating Teresa Teng's singing, and tried her best to sing as close to Teng as possible. But as she grew older, she no longer deliberately sought to imitate Teng’s voice, but from a deeper level, studying Teng’s singing skills and vocal methods. Over the years, these skills and methods have been thoroughly drilled into her, and now can be freely applied by her as part of her own singing skills. Also, as her own voice is close to that of Teresa Teng, she just sings naturally, and doesn't need to deliberately imitate Teresa Teng.
The followings are the pertinent interviews, and songs for comparison:
1. The third brother of Teresa Teng said that Chen Jia's own voice was close to that of Teresa Teng. She did not deliberately imitate Teresa Teng's voice. If she did, she could only sing a few close songs. It was impossible to sing so many songs so close.
2. In an interview in New York in May 2017, Chen Jia said her singing is a combination of the singing skills and music knowledge she learned from Teresa Teng, her choir conductor and her piano teacher, rather than just a mere imitation of Teresa Teng.
3. In November of the same year, Chen Jia said on Changzhou Radio, China that she didn't listen to Teresa Teng's singing anymore. She explained if you twist yourself to deliberately imitate others, you will be out of touch with your own essence, and will not sing naturally or sing well. She now sings only by her own feelings about the song.
4. Many of Teresa Teng's songs in Chen Jia's albums have been re-arranged, so they are not simply imitated.
Although Chen Jia sang a lot of songs very close to Teresa Teng, actually she also sang many songs with her own way of interpretation. For example, the following songs (first sung by Teresa Teng, and then covered by Chen Jia):

我50歲了 小姐 今年貴庚幾歲呀！.
大士橋邊月，流光萬里餘
連天增浩瀚，帀地託空虛
軍吹嚴荒戌，神燈下佛盧
夜寒投止宿，禪榻有儒書
孔道當利涉，往來畏雨風
先公崇聖祀，廣接未歸筇
日久新物換，臺殿多蒙茸
今幸充禪舍，遹觀諦造功
舟航迎互牖，晤對多奇雄
寶所懷杯渡，香廚出晚鐘
勞者憩袵席，趨者有景從
桃浪生片片，江潮流溶溶
假手承先志，所在皆帲幪
今昔不殊轍，光裕垂無窮
聞搜華藏卷，廿八乃斯鄉
翠擁庭垂蓋，白吹池散香
人歸鐘磬誚，雲定薜蘿荒
歇老提網處，誰為再舉揚
暮色起北山，青靄含萬樹
三峯接霄漢，蒼茫墜煙霧
繚繞澗壑雲，悠然自來去
危石松頂懸，徬徨屢驚顧
何幸梅兒真，采藥於此住
金沙垂聖蹟，寶嶼即瞻洲
佛地風波靜，天燈日月浮
水中開淨土，雲外渡迷流
法雨當空酒，千巖海色秋
風景只年年，盈盈白髮鮮
竹窗遙聽水，清沼懶栽蓮
日月開中擲，煙霞世外妍
罷琴惟繡佛，諸事不相便
世外多幽賞，林泉事不羣
春來謕舊鳥，雨過起新雲
玩水知魚樂，聞香愛蜨醺
此中何不悟，指掌示於君
石徑陵煙入，禪扉傍竹開
花侵香砌出，泉過飯廚來
地僻雲爭宿，林深鶴易回
伴山今日伴，蹤跡悔塵埃
幽谷精藍滿，行行隱秀遙
林深能做雨，峯轉不聞潮
頑石生公點，丹泉仙尉招
到來塵路絕，清思對團瓢
證果白華巔，超然出世先
望空開寶剎，枕石聽山泉
花發傳燈後，龍皈說法前
吾將歸塵慮，對爾共安禪
訪古意何極，還窺真歇泉
甃池涵遠脈，見水憶真禪
人立高雲下，山橫旭日邊
宗風多後起，一勺是心傳
神仙有窟宅，浮槎訪遺蹟
胸次懷高風，到來乘暇隙
鳥道薜蘿閒，逶迤幾千尺
林端出清光，隱隱露屋脊
披襟坐樹根，望之意甚適
少憩精盧旁，侶坐煉丹石
古仙不度人，老僧不楫客
取紙書言語，聊為聾者譯
盆石起千峯，茶煙幻五色
奇事與奇觀，良可資談劇
卻憶寶兒亭，梅庵從此易0
