The Lido Jubilee Christmas Special 2004 (Lai Fah Wong Goong) showcases some of the best vocalists in Hong Kong. I truly enjoyed watching the performance in Genting. But what drove me to tears and to screams of laughters were the songs. I call them Summer songs because they were warm, tender and reminiscent of my late Mother. These were the songs that she used to sing to me as a child. I came home and tried to locate the book where she wrote down the transliteration of the songs from Chinese to English. To my dismay it was no where to be seen. I wonder if it has been boxed and kept in the basement.
Even if I can't find the book ever again, each time I hear the melody of the songs it will be Summer time.
