There was a Chinese song (from the 90's!)

All I remember of this Cantonese song from the (I believe) early 90's was "starting today we can be togther".

"Chun gumteen ho chee yut chai" Haha. It was sung by a male singer.

Oh, also, there was an Ekin Cheng song, also a Cantonese song from the 90's, that goes something like, "Cheng yee but din dong, cheng yee but foo tong". It sounds like the song in my head, haha, but hope it makes some sense to someone!

Thanks in advance! :)

...Wow, just wow. Skylee, you are amazing! I never thought anyone would know what I meant, haha. Thank you so much! And just out of curiosity, Anthony Wong, is he a famous singer?

Instead of creating a new thread, I thought I'd just post it in here. There was a cd, back in the early 90's (yet again!), that I remember was a compilation of songs and their singers. I remember there was Jacky Cheung's "Cry" and Alan Tam's "Drunk on the Street" as well as a song by Hacken Lee called "Fate Unchanged". The reason I mention this is, if anyone knows the song list on the back, there were a ton of songs from there that I have been looking for to hear again. Help is greatly appreciated, thank you! :)

Oh, there was a song by Grasshopper too called "The World Will Become Very Beautiful".

I assume that the songs above are what you wanted. Please note that the "yat chai" in "Chun gumteen ho chee yut chai" does not mean "together". It means "all", "everything". The words' tones are different in Cantonese.

Anthony Wong used to be quite famous.

They are! Thanks skylee! I also am looking for the cd song list mentioned above, if you could help me, would be greatly appreciated! Love finding these old songs again! :)

Anthony Wong is still fairly famous as an actor, isn't he? (Or do I just think that because I know his movies.)

There is the actor Anthony Wong (王秋生), and there is the singer Anthony Wong (黃耀明).

There is yet another song I could really use your help in locating ^_^;

It was a fast song by Aaron Kwok. I don't remember the lyrics, but from what my friend said, it was about Aaron picking up his g/f from her house, I remember screeching of tires, and the mother (of the g/f?) saying something as well. I remember one part he says, "dixie nai", if that helps, haha. Oh, and he says "ho ho fai".

Thanks for all your help! Love all these older songs!

Oh, and there was another one of Aaron's that went, "5 4 3 2 1 Base!" Yeah, I'm good at recalling detailed info on these songs. xD
