My buddy and I used to visit Foo Leong to satisfy our hunger for music cassettes and cds during our secondary school days. I've in fact tried to visit Foo Leong a few weeks back only to find that it is no longer there. I feel so sad for Mrs Wong on hearing her interview in this video. My buddy and I will miss her. I am sure many of her customers will feel the same. I wish her the best for her retirement. Thank you irememberSG for such a valuable video!
I am a Malay Muslim man 33, from Malaysia, if I listen to this Chinese old songs of the year 1940's now on youtube, which has been played by the redufusion broadcasting station, it is not by Media Corps of Andrew Rd, but it was broadcast by cable to a sound box of two channel band which contain the power of 12 volts electricity throughout Singapore during the year1950's, when my uncle 70, and his family stay at Lrg 31, of Geylang Rd, that time he were study at Dunman Pry Sch of Tg Ktg Road, latter at Upp Aljunied sec tech sch, now it's no more and it is just opp Bidadari Park, that's all friend, if anyone who have senior citizen age 65 and above in their family can contact me by this youtube channel to bring back our memories long time ago or something just happen to an exhumation of old Chinese graveyard at Bukit Brown cemetery Lornie Rd, recently, thank you to our friend of Singapore.
I HAD BEEN PATRONIZING THIS MUSIC SHOP SINCE 1986 ,OVER 3 DECADES OF FRIENDSHIP WITH THIS.MUSIC SHOP .I HAD BOUGHT ALMOST ALL MY TERESA TENG TAPES AND CDS FROM THIS SHOP.IN THE 80S TO.90S TERESA TAPES WERE BOUGHT AROUND 4.5 TO 5.5 .I STARTED. MY COLLECTION OF TERESA CDS STARTED SINCE LATE 1993 WHEN SHE WAS STILL ALIVE. THERE WAS ONCE, I PLACED AN ORDER OF 50 DIFFERENT TITLES OF TERESA CDS AT ONE GO,,THIS LADY GAVE ME A BIG DISCOUNT, FOR BUDGET CD 10.5 A PIECE,NORMAL POLYGRAM CD 19 BUCKS. SHE WAS SLOW IN SECURING THE ORDER AND I KEPT PRESSING, SHE WAS CONFUSED THAT SHE PLACED AN ADDITIONAL ORDER OF ANOTHER 50CDS. SHE SAID OH.SEI LO SEI LO MAI OOMH CU LO SEI LO SEI LO.MEANING OH DEAR ,I CANNOT SELL THE REMAINING STOCK, OH DIE LAH.THAT WAS THE MOST HILARIOUS MOMENT.HOWEVER, SHE MANAGED TO CLEAR THE REMAINING STOCK IN A MONTH, BUSINESS WAS VERY GOOD THEN. I PATRONISED THE STORE DURING ITS LAST FEW DAYS.IT IS VERY SAD TO SEE THE CLOSURE OF THIS MUSIC STORE.IT BROUGHT ME SO MUCH FOND MEMORIES.
Isn't it very rare for Singaporean Chinese to speak Cantonese? Over in Malaysia, specifically in Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya and Ipoh, it used to be the dominant language/dialect spoken by Chinese but it's use has been steadily dwindling especially in the first two cities.
Singaporean speaking Cantonese isn't rare is just that many Hokkiens that time came to Singapore and many Cantoneses went to Malaysia but some settled in Singapore because of war displacement etc but Singaporeans speaking Hakka Hainan Fuzhou are the rare ones
Singaporeans old cultures are starting to die Now that there are Netflix and all those stuff Nobody buys CD anymore AND I still like to watch old Chinese movies
Nyet~felix is nothing but degenerate thrash full of debauchery, murder, killing, treachery and other forms of vileness. Almost everything shown is dark and demonic.
