Alan Tam Wing-lun (August 23, 1950), better known as Alan Tam, is an actor and singer from Hong Kong. Widely regarded as a seminal figure in the 1980s Cantopop scene, he has released over a hundred albums and has received countless awards for his extensive body of work. The son of football player Tam Kong-pak, he took his first steps in music as one of the vocalists of the pop band The Wynners and performed with the group right up until its dissolution in 1978. Even though his studio debut, Naughty Boy, appeared in 1979, Alan Tam scored his first big hit in 1984 with the single "Love in Autumn," followed by the incredibly successful trilogy of albums Root of Love (1984), Love of Fog (1984), and Love Trap (1985). Between 1981 and 1987, he racked up an impressive amount of accolades, winning the Most Popular Male Artist at the IFPI Awards for four consecutive years. Simultaneously, he also forayed into mainstream cinema, landing roles in the films A Girl Without Sorrow, The Funny Couple, and If I Were for Real, which earned him the Best Actor award at the Golden Horse Awards in 1981. In the following decades, Alan Tam remained one of the most popular artists in the world of C-pop, selling over 20 million albums and serving as a mentor to a whole new generation of aspiring singer-songwriters. In 2007, his multiple contributions to the Hong Kong recording industry were recognized with the 30th Hall of Fame Award from the Composers and Authors Society of Hong Kong.
