Thumbs up to your efforts to create and put such informative and interesting points in the blog. You exactly got the points which I was looking for. Keep up the real work.
Thanks for the New Year medley! I didn't know the history of the Gong Xi song. I *really* love Yao Li and her brother's original version.
Gong Xi Fa Cai! Best wishes for a prosperous and prolific Year of the Rabbit.
P.S. Here are some more Chinese New Year songs I just found.
P.P.S. Love the papercut! :D
Sun Nian Fai Lok, everyone!
ivegas - Thanks for the kind words. I'd like to think of them as little nuggets - Rabbit droppings if you will! :D
dave - Great link! I'm a sucker for Choi San Dou. Learning that Gong Xi Gong Xi Ni is a end of war celebration song makes it doubly poingnant. Of course, finding the Yao Li version, I immediately thought of you. It really is a nice version.
