Chou's compositions are loosely categorized as pop music. While many of his works fall into contemporary R&B, rap, and rock genres, the term "Chou Style" (traditional Chinese: 周氏風格; pinyin: zhōu shì fēnggé) has been popularized to describe his trademark cross-cultural music and his insistence on singing with relaxed enunciation. Taipei Times once described the meaning of "Chou Style": "In what has become the archetypal Chou style, Taiwan's favorite son blends pop, rap, blues and a smorgasbord of esthetic elements of world music to create his dream-like never-never land ..." He regularly fuses traditional Chinese instruments and styles with R&B or rock to form a new genre called "Zhongguo feng" (traditional Chinese: 中國風), some of which are written in the Pentatonic Scale as opposed to the normal seven-note scale (Diatonic Scale) to accentuate an oriental style. Besides his own culture, he also incorporated Spanish guitar in "Red Imitation" (traditional Chinese: 紅模仿; pinyin: hóng mófǎng), American techno/electronica in "Herbalist's Manual" (traditional Chinese: 本草綱目; pinyin: Běncǎo Gāngmù), rap with subtle classical music undertones in "Reverse Scales" (traditional Chinese: 逆鱗; pinyin: nìlín), and Bossanova style in "Rosemary" (traditional Chinese: 迷迭香; pinyin: mídiéxiāng), to name a few. Sound effects from everyday life are frequently woven into his music, such as bouncing ping pong balls, touch tone phone dialing, helicopter blades, dripping rain, and radio static noise. His formal musical training is evident by the use of classical textures in his compositions. For example, counterpoint was used in "Perfection" (traditional Chinese: 完美主義; pinyin: wánměizhǔyì) and "Sorry" (traditional Chinese: 對不起; pinyin: duìbuqǐ), while polyphony can be found in "The Wound That Ends War" (traditional Chinese: 止戰之殤; pinyin: zhǐ zhàn zhī shāng) and "Twilight's Chapter Seven" (traditional Chinese: 夜的第七章; pinyin: yè de dì-qī zhāng).

Originally performed by 70's Rock Gods Led Zepellin, this song is a Duran Duran cover, included on their 1995 cover album also called "Thank You". I've tried to make a kind of psicadelic 70's video showing some of the biggest musical influences in Duran Duran's music, such as The Temptations, Roxy Music, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, The Doors or Bob Dylan...
