However, not everyone was thrilled with his return.
Some netizens advocated “boycotting artistes with a bad track record” and said that while Leehom’s songs are good, “that doesn’t excuse his actions”.
Others were more objective, saying that apart from some unverified allegations of solicitation, Leehom has done nothing wrong and that everyone should be more forgiving.
“He isn’t a tainted artist, just be more generous,” read one comment.
