To a beautiful sister, Agnes Cedras, who knows how to fully appreciate all my jokes by being observant and meticulous in reading every word and phrase I write, I dedicate this oldie by The Marmalade ... Reflections Of My Life. to her. Many years ago, we used to sing this song, which has some pretty high notes and screamed our lungs out, feeling very shiok as we do so. And when our voices couldnt reach those high notes and it came out as thye see kuay, thye buay see , we all really had a good laugh, as we enjoyed singing together & freely, without fear of embarassment. For the benefit of those, who does not understand nor appreciate hokkien jokes like the following ... thye see kuay, thye buay see , it means that as the chicken is being slaughtered and struggling to stay alive, it gave a shrieking sound like someone who sang out of notes in an effort to reach a certain pitch. https://youtube/watch?v=79NiN7ISW7E
