Sing, sing a song, sing it simple, sing out loud! Sing of good things not bad! Sing of happy not sad! Sing, sing a song, sing it simple to last your whole life long! 'Don't matter if it's not good enough for anyone else to hear, just sing, sing a song! ~That by the way is a song by the Carpenters, first sung by a group of Japanese kids that the band got to sing with them when they played a concert in Japan decades ago. Really cute video, thank you so much for posting!! :)

[jpscgirl]

I learned that song at school!

[ploysr08]

@jpscgirl oh really??? wow

[LindaNowakowski]

It is an old English pop tune that I have heard more in Thailand than I have heard in the US in the last 30 years! It is Sing by the Carpenters and although my Japanese is VERY rusty, I believe they sang the whole thing but the last line in Japanese. Last line was in English just for you! Lyrics to follow:

[ploysr08]

@LindaNowakowski I see thank you so much! :D

[Lulumay2]

[Caranela]

Kids sang probably the english word song ^__^

[ploysr08]

@Caranela Yes It's English song. I couldn't really catch what they were singing but my American friend said that it's the song he sang in elementary school too! I'll have to find out more about that. :)

[alexproject25]

What a nice thing to do Ploy. you're very patient. I tried to pick out english words in the kids' singing, but found nothing. I always have trouble understanding kids singing in groups. The kids do Christmas carols here, and I can never figure out what they're saying, haha.

[Alejojojo6]

I was watching your videos and they are all awesome!^^ You seem to be a really nice person! I wish I could visit Japan some day. Btw what language are those kids singing?? It doesn't sound English to me it sounds japanese...¬¬ maybe it's just me haha waiting for your next video!

[ploysr08]

@Alejojojo6 Thanks so much. You're so sweet. yeah it didn't sound like English to me too but i was told that it was haha. I showed this video to one of my American friend and he said it's the song he sang in elementary school too. I'll find out the name of the song. The kids put their hearts out singing it and i just love them!!! :D Come to Japan if you have a chance. :D

[alexproject25]

[ploysr08]

@alexproject25 YES this job-- PATIENCE required! hahaha Last year i was selected as the city's advisor so i got to go to many schools and did something like this all year long! :D ohh and the song the kids sang, it's not just you! me too! haha I couldn't catch the phrases at all but i was told it's an English song. Anyway, one of my American friends said he sang this song in his elementary school too. ohh Christmas carol??? hahaha

[briandudeathome]

I'm wondering why you had so many "self introductions", was it for people who have multiple personalities?! haha

[ploysr08]

@briandudeathome We had like 5 or 6 self-inroduction all day long!!! hahaha like there were many sessions and different groups of people so we had no choice haha.

[BelieveInFate]

WOW, you're truly an amazing person, Ploy. Was this for school or some volunteer program? It looks like FUN!! And the kids were adorable!! You're so lucky!! I need to go to Japan and take a tour! :D You should put this up in a post at the isubscribed forums!! I'm sure they'd love all your vlogs!! :D

[ploysr08]

@BelieveInFate Thanks so much Ray. Yes it's a volunteer program for the school called "local exchange". There are a lot more programs actually. These are amazing chances to broaden your horizon :D You need to come to Japan one day :) and maybe take a tour to Thailand also?! haha I'll take your advice on posting it at the forums. Glad you like this video :)

[SleeplessSinger]

[holyshirei]

OMG! That was sooooo cute! kawaii ne those kids were!!!

And were they singing something about change? My japanese isn't that perfect, so couldn't catch what it meant. But they were still really cute! I'm sure the experience you had was amazing! I wish I had chances like that too! I want to visit JAPAN!!!!! <3 <3 <3

[ploysr08]

@holyshirei soo cute right? I'm not so sure what they sing either honestly hahahaha but i think i heard something like..."just sing... sing a song" :)) My Japanese is definitely not perfect either haha. It's not an easy language. It's a great experience! I'm so glad i came here. COME TO JAPAN PLEASE <3 :D
