Agnes Chan was a singer and actress from Hong Kong, hitting it big as a teen folk singing star in the early 70's. She wrote this song for one of her first films, "The Generation Gap". She recorded this when she really was 16! I think her young age shows in the lyrics somewhat.
Agnes Chan - You Are 21, I Am 16
Agnes continues to record today. Visit her official site, here.

If you like music from the HK 60's scene, this cd box set should make you very happy. A 4-CD box set from Diamond Records that features the best of The Fabulous Echoes, Kong Ling, Teddy Robin & The Playboys, Joe Junior, Sam Hui & The Lotus, Anita Mui, Danny Diaz & The Checkmates, The Mystics, The Wynners, and more. With 72 tracks in all! And it is amazingly affordable too. I just ordered mine. =)
For a taste of what to expect in this Diamond Records box set, check out this site. Quite a lot of quality stuff to download on there, including a super cover of The Zombies' "I Love You".

Nice song, although the 21 year old is risking some serious jail time! Thanks for the link to the other site -- I didn't know about it.
i agree! it also sounds like she's singing about a manager though.
greetings from the philippines!
I always thought The Fabulous Echoes and Teddy Robin & The Playboys are Americans!
Thanks to your site, I now know they're fellow Asians!
In the 60's I used to listen to "Dancing On The Moon" on the radio. Also "I Can't Grow Peaches On A Cherry Tree", which had become my favorite song during my elementary days.
So, would you be good enough to post these 3 songs, which are really hard to find:
1. Dancing On The Moon - The Fabulous Echoes
2. A Litle Bit Of Soap - The Fabulous Echoes
3. I Can't Grow Peaches On A Cherry Tree - Teddy Robin and the Playboys
Thank you so much for your beautiful site.
