This 1972 pop novelty record on the Le Feng (Life Records) label out of Malaysia, the title of which roughly translates to "Happy Year of the Rat Mini Mouse", contains four New Year songs. The band is The Travellers, a prolific psych rock band from Singapore; the singers are credited only as The Sunkiss, which were two guys doing a Chipmunks routine (singing at half speed, then sped up to 200%). They never had another record so I don't know who they are; I prefer to think it's the President of the label and his brother-in-law.
賀新年 / Happy New Year
