Fever is the tenth studio album by Taiwanese singer A-Mei. It was released on August 30, 2002, by Warner Music Taiwan. It was released two weeks after its intended release date to feature the song "Katsu," which is A-Mei's aboriginal nickname and also means “victory” in Japanese. With this song, A-Mei expresses how a little girl left her aboriginal home and went on a journey into the unknown, and that little girl has become her present self. Fever features a total of 10 songs and is produced by Tino Bao, Ma Yu-Fen and others. The album itself incorporates genres such as pop, country pop, pop rock, funk, hip-hop and R&B.
The album sold more than 2 million copies in Asia. In Taiwan it sold over 180,000 copies, ranking in the top 20 in the year's album sales in the country. The album earned A-Mei two Golden Melody Award nominations for Best Mandarin Female Singer and Album of the Year at the 14th Golden Melody Awards. A-Mei promoted Fever by embarking on the A-Class Entertainment World Tour on August 3, 2002, which attracted about 500,000 people in the whole process.
