親愛的朋友們，

今天我從馬來西亞的雲頂高原，同時也是2001年馬來西亞「第一屆金曲紅人頒獎禮」舉辦地點的旅館房間寫信給你們。我很榮幸的可以獲得「年度最佳製作人」、「年度最佳作曲人」和「年度最佳歌曲～唯一」三項大獎！我想要再次重覆我在頒獎典禮中所說的：謝謝所有聆聽我的音樂的朋友們。你們不斷的給予我力量和靈感，謝謝你們給我這樣的機會讓我可以做我喜歡的音樂，沒有你們的聆聽，就不會有這些音樂。

昨天是感恩節，按照往例在這個時候，我一定是和家人聚在一起品嚐媽媽最近在廚房裡的發明，還有她的幾道經典之作：南瓜派、蘋果派、煮玉米、油炸肋排，當然還有多汁美味的火雞囉！今年的感恩節還有另外一個值得慶祝的是－也是我的父親母親結婚30週年的紀念日！

恭喜媽媽和爸爸，你們是最棒的！能夠相互伴隨並且相愛30年是非常難得和特別的，我希望我也能夠成為這麼成功的丈夫！雖然一通電話並不足以取代親自回到紐約和你們一起慶祝這兩件有意義的盛事，但是在聖誕節期間當我們在拉斯維加斯重逢的時候讓我們補慶祝 這些歡樂時光，好嗎？我愛我的家人！

奔波遊走在中國、新加坡、和馬來西亞之間的這個星期過得有些太快速了... 當然也讓我非常的忙碌。前幾天回到台灣的感覺特別的好，我已經三個星期沒有回來台北，真的開始非常想念在台灣的朋友了！

在進行專輯的宣傳工作和準備我新的音樂書之外，我也已經開始為了準備我的巡迴演唱會而健身了！唉呀！我的全身酸痛，已經蠻久一段時間沒有健身了，我想我的身體在處罰我吧!!

大家請保重，我很快的就會與你們見面了！

願世界和平，力宏

I'm writing to you today from my hotel room in the Genting Highlands, Malaysia, which was the site of the Malaysian golden melody awards, 2001. What an honor to be awarded "Producer of the Year", "Composer of the Year", and "Song of the Year" for "Wei Yi, the One and Only"! I would like to reiterate what I said in my acceptance speeches...thanks to all of you, the listeners of my music. You continue to give me strength and inspiration. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to do what I love. Without your ears, there would be no music.

Yesterday was Thanksgiving, which traditionally is the time when my family and I MUST get together to sample Mom's latest culinary inventions, as well as her standard classics: pumpkin pie, apple pie, corn-on-the-cob, pan-fried ribs, and of course, succulent stuffed turkey! This year's Thanksgiving also coincided with another celebration, Mom and Dad's 30th year wedding anniversary!

Congratulations Mom and Dad, you guys are the greatest! To be together and in love for 30 years is such a rare and special thing, I only hope that I can have that kind of success as a husband! Even though a phone call is no substitute for returning home to New York to celebrate these two momentous occasions, we'll have to reenact the festivities during Christmas time, when we meet up together in Las Vegas, OK? Lots of love to my family!

Touring between China, Singapore, and Malaysia this week was kind of fast paced, but it sure kept me busy. It was especially nice to be back in Taiwan the last few days, I hadn't been back to Taipei in three weeks, and was really beginning to miss my friends there!

Between album promotion, and preparing for the release of my new music book, I also have begun visiting the gym regularly in preparation for my world tour! Ouch! It's been a while since I've worked out like this, and my body is making me pay for it!

Take care everyone and I'll be seeing you soon！

Peace on earth, Leehom
