Chow Mein by the Gaylords on Empire Classic Radio

[Saint Scylla]

Hey guys,

Here's in my opinion the weirdest song in Mafia II's OST:

Is the song really complaining about a Chinese restaurant closing or is there a hidden meaning?

As for the band's epic name, gay used to mean happy and joyful.

I doubt there was a hidden meaning. Just a fun song from that era.

Yeah there is. Theres one part in the game where you destroy a chineese resteraunt and in the game on the radio after every mission theres a different song about that mission on the radio.
