She is the best HK singer ever.
Could not agree with you more. During the 60s, Kong Ling recorded several albums, including a couple with The Fabulous Echoes. Her greatest hit was probably Let's Twist Again. Some of her past recordings under the Diamond Recording label has been included in a Box Album compilation of HK groups, released a couple of years ago.
she is fantastic. i left HK when i was 3 years old in 1968 and i wish i had some of her records but cant find any on ebay etc. i ordered her best of CD vol 2 but cannot find vol 1 which probably has my favourite "yum yum cha cha" if anyone can help i would be very grateful
thank you

she has the magnetic sexy voice and i love her!!!!!
Discovered the voice of Kong Ling
over the radio today,played by our local DJ Albert Ng,Malaysia.Enjoyed her rendition of More Than I can Say.Her voice was so clear and crisp.I am going to the store today to find her CD.I think I have just caught Kong Ling fever !!
Does anyone know where she is now? I guess she must be about 70 years old.
Her voice is very therapeutic. I am not afraid to say I have listened all her songs everyday on my way to work for the last 3 years, and I am not about to stop.
My favourite Kong Ling song is "Let's Twist Again, recorded with The Fabulous Echoes.There are two box sets of CDs featuring HK groups and artists from the 60s/70s, released by Universal Music over the last couple of years. It contains quite a few songs by Kong Ling, including "Yum Yum Cha Cha" with the Echoes.
