Singapore Memories: Singapore Singers & Songs

QuaChee said:

Ho Yeow Sun, the wife of the Pastor Kong from City Harvest Church came out with a few Chinese albums and I bought her first. There were lots of hype for the album and controversies too. Ntevertheless I think her first album is not too bad - it does fulfill its purpose - ie to inspire :)

School Songs

kyntheman compared the songs he had to sing at ACS and The Chinese High:

TCHS is a different kettle of fish altogether, being a secular (but not entirely non-ideological) and traditional Chinese school and all that. I think Chinese High boys celebrate small-scale National Days every week with the number of patriotic songs we sing. I suspect the administration wanted to convert us all to Yue Feis by the time we're through. Then there is the content of the songs. Is it my imagination, or are many of the songs somewhat militant in nature?
