(1635) MUSIC AND ME (Sept. 27, 2018) MY REPERTOIRE OF INTERNATIONAL SONGS (Updated March 2019) ---B---

Former Palau Royal Resort's Executive Chef Masaki Horie, left, was treated to a farewell party at the Conference Room of PRR. Many staff performed different entertainment. Our Division (Exec., Finance, Sales and Marketing) come up with the rendition of Styx song "Babe", where we changed the word "Babe" as "Chef"....

"Chef, you're leaving, you must be on your way,
The time is drawing near, your plane is going, We see it in your eyes, the love, the need, your tears.
   But we'll be lonely without you,
   And we'll need your love to see us through.
   So please believe us, our hearts is in your hands,
   And we'll be missing you."

I know that "Babe" is the favorite song of Chef Horie because one time when I played it on piano, he came to me and said, "Babe?"

During the picture taking of this photo after the farewell party, he said to me, "You know my favorite song!"
