What is the song that plays when a store is closing?

I’ve noticed recently that a lot of establishments, specially some Louisa Cafes, play the same song when the store is about to close.

As if it were a signal to customers that is time to leave, it seems that it became a meme because I noticed the same song playing at a “net” clothing store.

It sounds like a pretty old song, and I can’t distinguish the words because it’s pretty slow, the only word that I can distinguish is 明天 which plays during the choir -and is probably the reason they play it.

晚安曲

Also known as the 快滾歌 or the “Bugger Off” song

I think I need to play this for my students at the end of class so they don’t come up and pester me with a bunch of questions.

Yeeeees is this one, I couldnt remember the words because he sings really slow

At my library they play some other ditty which sounds really quite childish. At that point, typically if I lock eyes with any of the elderly who are packing up their picnic and thermoses and chargers and pillows and full day campsites (exaggerating), they will tell me in abrupt Chinglish too, just in case I didn’t get it. I know, they’re trying to help.

Wan Aaaaaaaaaan!

The only words I could ever understand in that song.

晚安

Super old but still played a lot in many places. Kind of like the “It’s good to drink?” commercial, a Taiwan staple.

I like the song. I find it funny in different ways.

For those who may not know, the singer is still alive and well. In spite of the rather disgustingly wholesome image he presents in the 晚安曲 and other songs, he went on to be a TV host with a penchant for risqué jokes. His elder sister is a nun, famous in the Taiwan gutter press (is there any other kind?) for her lavish spending and big debts

Never heard this before, probably because I usually go to 24h stores.
