Teresa Teng, January 29, 1953 - May 8, 1995
I heard her beautiful voice for the very first time on my uncle's wedding ceremony in 1979. Her songs were played on the boombox in the wedding hall. I was mesmerized by her clear and sweet vocal. I did not understand songs' lyrics. I did not know who the singer was. I found out later that she was from Taiwan, a daughter of a KMT soldier and her parents were from China. I got two tapes from my uncle before I went back to my town. I always played two tapes of Teresa Teng. I still remembered asking my mother to play her tapes when I was sick and laid on the bed.
She still is irreplaceable Teresa Teng. Her songs and her graceful image live on forever in my heart.
