Legendary Hong Kong actor/songwriter James Wong recently passed away. You may not recognize him but you would have heard some of the popular songs he penned words for. One of the biggest ones include, Shanghai Tang. The long pan, long lau song... This opening words to the song was inspired when he was taking a dump. On the day when the song lyrics were due, he was still panicking because he has yet to finish the song. He had stomachache and rushed to the toilet, releasing a lot of "stuff" and thus had the finishing words to his song. This story was gathered from his close friends and Sam Tin Ha, on the Remembering James Wong program on TV
