JJ Lin on the “toughest hundred days” of his life
When he was down with a severe throat infection, JJ Lin was constantly depressed with feelings of helplessness. He “even suspected that I will not be unable to sing anymore.”
But the local singer, who’s since made a full recovery, says that his love for music and composition and the encouragement from family and friends helped him pull through the darkest days that were “undeniably the toughest 100 days of my life.” His latest album release, his seventh, is even titled 100 Days.
The album’s title track ‘Hundred Days’ was inspired by feelings he recalled while lying along on the hospital bed one night. In the intense silence within the ward, he shut his eyes and experienced emotions similar to when he was in love in his younger days.
“Even if it was the end of the world, I am still willing to believe, take a risk and gamble it all even if I know it is impossible.”
