It has been the Chinese culture to pay lunar New Year calls to relatives. Talks focus on how people are doing. It is quite a personal and family appraisal in every way.
In early 2016, I thought about writing a song to celebrate the lunar New Year, highlighting the talk topics. I wrote and recorded the song "New Year Sweet Talks" within days. I then published it within close social domestic circles as the last song of my New Year series.
Practice has not changed and I think the spirit of the song is very much alive. As people have little patience these days, I have shortened the original sound track by half . Although the song sounds shallow on the surface, I believe it should touch the hearts of many.
