National Day is almost here.
Since there is no new official NDP theme song this year, the organisers have recycled some of the old ones.
Like this We Are The World-like "I sing one line, you sing one line" cover of Home feat. some questionable rapping by Sheikh Haikel.
And this Mumford & Sons-like cover of Electrico's What Do You See from 2009.
And this mash-up of the 2002 NDP song We Will Get There Singapore and 1990's One People, One Nation, One Singapore.
But while there is no new official NDP song this year, there are a few new unofficial ones I found on YouTube.
This first one by Lorraine Tan is the most professionally produced, but then she had already done several of these.
This one by by Audris Ho is slightly less polished but still tasteful to a fault.
This one could use a better singer and better lyrics than "All these we did for you, my dear".
Who are you calling "my dear"? Is Singapore "your dear"? Can you call a country "my dear"? Also, I think "All this we did for you" sounds more grammatical.
This last one just made me laugh.
NDP goes punk.
Majulah!
EARLIER: We don't have a new NDP song to kick around any more
