Can you describe the song a little bit?
It's a pity that she died so young. Early last year, her best friend, Leslie Cheung, also a very popular Cantonese singer, leaped from the 20th floor of a hotel and died, which was a great shock for Mui. It's pretty sad of losing 2 very good singers in one year.
