Template:Infobox reality talent competition
I Am a Singer (season 2), is the second season of the Chinese TV series I Am a Singer produced by Hunan TV, produced by Hong Tao, and the show's music director is Kubert Leung.
The season premiered on January 3, 2014 and concluded on April 4, 2014, with a live Biennial concert aired on April 11, 2014. Chinese Singer Han Lei was the winner of the season, with Hong Kong singer G.E.M. finishing as runner-up.
Competition format
Most of the competition format were remained similar to the first season, with seven singers each week singing for a 500-member audience, who cast their ballots for the top three singers of their preference after all the singers had performed. Likewise, both the Qualifying and Knockout round scores are combined, and the singer receiving the fewest votes after the two rounds was eliminated.
This season introduced changes to the Revival round, taking place after the last Knockout round, which was renamed to Breakout round. The rules of the Breakout round was modified as such only the first-round singers who survived eliminations were exempted in the Breakout round. The remaining singers will compete along with eliminated singers to vie for the last few spots in the semi-finals, which is determined by seven minus the number of exempted singers (in the case, four first-round singers were exempted, thus three spots were offered in the Breakouts). Another change made is to the withdrawn singers, singers who voluntarily withdrew from the competition without performing have not been eligible for return performances, in addition to being ineligible to participate in the Breakout rounds. In the previous season, Chyi Chin (who withdrew from the competition on week 7) was given return performance on week 10.
This is also the first season to feature Biennial Concert, which aired one week after the finals, to showcase the best singers of the season plus selected singers from former seasons, similar to Graduation in the original Korean franchise. There were no voting and competition, unlike most other weeks.
