Ed and all:

Have you read the lyric?    It is about bedding down Chinese women, a
Japanese guy worrying about which one of the many China-women to get.

' hana wa goko notzu, negai-wa hidotzu'     (There are so many flowers,
which one should I pick?)

Does this sound OK to you folks?

Actually, China Nights (Shina no Yoru) -- from which the song came -- was a
World War Two Japanese film set in China.  It is a great song, even for
those who do not understand the words.  I think someone put the movie on
video cassette.  It is a classic. (IMO)
