Things So Singaporean

Victor shares with us this music video.

This is a song dedicated to all Singaporeans! My ex-boss penned the lyrics and I think the tune is very catchy, yet down to earth. Would you like to join me and try to may this one of NDP 2009 songs? Come and join us on facebook! It will not be complete without your support! :)

Kick-ass awesome! Finally a song that everyone and anyone can sing along to! Count my vote for this track to be included for National Day 2009 lineup! Also love how the music video features local photographers. This is the kind of work that exemplifies the mashup possibilities of Creative Commons.

Nice. Thumbs up for lyrics. Truly 'grassroots', not just superficial glossy glamorous touristy Singapore. Catchy chorus but maybe can improve on the not-so-easy-to-sing-verses. Please ah, my humble opinion only ah.

We found our theme song for NDP 2009!

It feels more real than some of those official jingles.

'Things So Singaporean' is a HORRID song. It is childish, overly simplistic, the tune goes no where, and the words while cute seemed forced. Definitely the worse song I've heard in a while. Gosh I can't imagine so many Singaporeans are so still so illiterate in this age and time. It is quite shocking! Wake up everyone, get out and see (hear) the world, school children pen better songs than this, you all need a reality check! I still can't get over the fact that after all these years of independence and economic development, Singaporean are still so musically illiterate. This is very sad.

Mr/Ms DieHardSingaporean! Can you do a better job.
