Been listening to and downloading Teresa Teng songs (especially her Taiwanese songs and the ones my dad doesn't have). I blame it all on the Thailand trip.

During the tour, at some of the restaurants we ate at, there were Thai singers that sang songs in English, Mandarin and Taiwanese even (dope!). And some of those songs they sang were popular Teresa Teng songs. So ever since Thailand, I've been having Teresa Teng songs stuck in my head. Especially her "The Moon Represents My Heart" song. When we went Chiang Mai, our tour guide told us this was the city where Teng passed away from an asthma attack. I remember when I heard about her passing I was shocked that she could have died so young. She had a huge following and was internationally known, one of Asia's pioneer singers.

When I was younger I used to like listening to her songs, since she was one of my favorite and few Asian artists I liked of my dad's collection of music.
