Intoxicated Lover

Intoxicated Lover is the debut Cantonese studio album by Hong Kong singer Kelly Chen. It was released on December 15, 1995, through Go East Entertainment Company Ltd/ Polygram Records in Hong Kong. Intoxicated Lover was characterized as a Brit Pop record that was under the influence of pop music from the early 1990s. This album includes a wide range of highly qualified songs which aren't easily found in other Hong Kong singer's debut album. And it successfully intermingles pop with elements of Trip hop, Dance-pop and Acoustic music which had a great influence on The Music of Hong Kong at that time.

Before the debut album's release, Kelly had already established a substantial fanbase in Hong Kong because she was fashionable and distinctive for a newcomer, and her first Cantonese single from her first soundtrack album 《Whatever Will Be, Will Be (仙樂飄飄)》was a big hit which peaked at number 1 on Four Hong Kong Top 10 Singles Charts.

Three singles were released in support of the album. The dance-pop track, "It's none of your business" (唔關你事) was released as the lead single and peaked at number two on the Hong Kong 903 Top 20 Singles chart. The subsequent single, the acoustic "I don't want to let you go" (誰願放手) reached number one on Hong Kong 903 Top 20 Singles and number two on RTHK Top 10 Singles. An indie pop track titled "I will miss you" (我會掛念你) was released as the final single and peaked at number one on Hong Kong 997 Top 10 Singles, number 3 on Hong Kong 903 Top 20 Singles, and number 7 on RTHK Top 10 Singles.
