This song is on my extensive โ€œMysterious Cafรฉโ€ playlist. โ€œThe Face That Launched a Thousand Ships.โ€ Iโ€™ve joked for a while that with its combination of an ethnic Chinese singer, lounge-like sound, and moderately smoky vocals, it evoked Shanghai in the art deco 1920s and โ€˜30s. Now Iโ€™m paying more attention to this official video, andโ€ฆ Itโ€™s shot in Shanghai! And those lyrics!

I guess I got it right.
