William Hung
William James Hung (born January 13, 1983), also known as Hung Hing Cheong, is a Hong Kong-born American former singer who gained fame in early 2004 as a result of his off-key audition performance of Ricky Martin's hit song "She Bangs" on the third season of the television series American Idol.
At the time of his audition, Hung was a civil engineering student at UC Berkeley. After his spirited audition to be the next American Idol, he inadvertently won the support of many fans. Hung voluntarily left university to pursue a music career. His recording career was marked by constant negative critical reaction, and his fame became the subject of much controversy as both he and his fans were accused of promoting and endorsing racial stereotypes against Asians, as he was perceived to lack musical talent and be celebrated only for embodying these stereotypes. In spite of the criticism and the implications of his success, he only showed signs of thoroughly enjoying his celebrity, believing he was living his dream.
William Hung (sinologist)
William Hung (Chinese: 洪業; 27 October 1893 – 22 December 1980), was a Chinese educator, sinologist, and historian who taught for many years at Yenching University, Peking, which was China's leading Christian university, and at Harvard University. He is known for bringing modern standards of scholarship to the study of Chinese classical writings, for editing the Harvard-Yenching Index Series, and for his biography, Tu Fu: China's Greatest Poet. He became a Christian while a student at the Anglo-Chinese College in Fuzhou, then went to Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, Ohio, Columbia University, and Union Theological Seminary. On his return to China, he became Professor and Dean of Yenching University, where he was instrumental in establishing the Harvard-Yenching Institute. He came to Harvard in 1946 and spent the rest of his life in Cambridge, Massachusetts, teaching and mentoring students.
William Hung was the oldest of six children. His father gave him the "school name" Hong Ye ("Great Enterprise"), and then when he left for the United States he took the given name William. He married Rhoda Kong in 1919, and the couple had two children, Ruth and Gertrude.

The plot thickens as Sergeant Tak and his wife, Ling, an ex-detective herself, race to find the murderer before more contestants end up dead.

Miracles: Hung for the Summer
Love
Can't you see I'm alone
Can't you give this fool a chance
A little love
Is all I ask
A little kindness in the night
Please don't leave me behind
No don't tell me love is blind
A little love
Is all I ask
And that is all
Oh love
I've been searching so long
I've been searching high and low
A little love
Is all I ask
A little sadness when you're gone
Maybe you need a friend
Only please don't let's pretend
A little love
Is All I ask
And that is all
I wanna spread my wings
But I just can't fly
As string of pearl
And pretty girls
Go sailing by
Ocean deep
I'm so afraid to show my feelings
I have sailed a million ceilings
Solitary room
Ocean deep
Will I ever find a lover
Maybe she has found another
As I cry myself to sleep
I know this love of mine
I'll keep
Ocean deep
Love
Can't you hear when I call
Can't you hear a word I say
A little love
Is all I ask
A little feeling when we touch
Why am I still alone
I've got a heart without a home
A little love
Is all I ask
And that is all
I wanna spread my wings
But I just can't fly
As string of peral
And pretty girls
Go sailing by
Ocean deep
I'm so afraid to show my feelings
I have sailed a million ceilings
Solitary room
Ocean deep
Will I ever find a lover
Maybe she has found another
As I cry myself to sleep
I know this love of mine
I'll keep
Ocean deep
So hard for me to say it
You're the only one I love
Just can't revel it
Maybe maybe
Maybe she has found another
As I cry myself to sleep
I know this love of mine
I'll keep
Ocean deep
