[mysticblue265boi]

One of the best NDP songs!!

[MrNyangyi]

I ve never seen people smiling like this lady in Singapore.

[marigold38]

wah i tot this one is 2009 one.... i am still living in the glory past!

[xiaopang254]

I'm watching this in 2011.

This is still the best of all NDP songs.

[omgwthbbqpizza]

2:42 LE CASINO AND SKY GARDEN!!

[omgwthbbqpizza]

I'm a born and bred Singaporean, but I swear I've never seen the playground at 0:30 Maybe my childhood was deprived D:

[TheBlackmentos94]

@omgwthbbqpizza

singapore isn't that small...I've only seen less than 5 different playgrounds ...I didn't grow up most of my years in singapore...was very deprived of playgrounds!

[Desolator777]

@TheBlackmentos94 Within a 1km radius of my house, there are 4 playgrounds, one elderly fitness corner, one fitness corner, a BBQ pit and a park.

[TheBlackmentos94]

@Desolator777 Good for you. My home is in an housing estate, there are two playgrounds here and nothing else around besides new developments for new shopping centers. Not everybody lives in hdbs and condos and have facilities at their doorsteps. Singapore is still a very convenient and easy place to live compared to other countries.

[SmartSpade]

best ndp song off all!<3 this song <3

[adytan250998]

Memories of Primary School Nat Day celebrations, in NYPS, where we got together in class and 6I 2010 REALLY sang and really celebrated! unity :) Miss those days

[TheWWExpert]

1:27 My COUSIN!

[TheWWExpert]

It was 2008 when NDP Songs started to turn horrible..... Thumbs up if you want this song to be played again in 2011 this year like 1998 home on 2004 home

[BiminiRosy]

@TheWWExpert Yeah. But for me i like this song better than 2004 home...

[Mrsjeekx]

@TheWWExpert but i think 2011's song in a heartbeat is also nice. Home is my fav song i hear it every year since P2 :) now i heard it for..... 4 yrs

[junhaoleong]

@TheWWExpert agreed

[HabboMoviesRecords]

@TheWWExpert NDP 2011 song is great

[SNSDSHINee1234]

@TheWWExpert this years is ver nice too....

[mengqi68]

I think the Chinese version is much better. It speaks powerfully about love, dreams, determination, and happiness. The English version is bland.

[ShynobieX]

@mengqi68 Theres a chinese version? if yes could you please give me the link to it. Really appreciate it though.

[alvin8452]

Dear Singapore,

You will always be MY ISLAND HOME.we will always be ONE UNITED PEOPLE and TOGETHER we will SHINE FOR SINGAPORE. you can COUNT ON ME SINGAPORE as we are all ONE UNITED PEOPLE. Singapore is WHERE I BELONG and THERE'S NO PLACE I RATHER BE. when we REACH OUT FOR THE SKIES, WE WILL GET THERE and sing a SONG FOR SINGAPORE. We will STAND UP FOR SINGAPORE as this is our HOME. you say WHAT DO YOU SEE and we say we see ONEPEOPLEONENATIONONESINGAPORE­­because WE ARE SINGAPORE.-Singaporeans(:

[mengqi68]

@alvin8452 Good job putting all those songs together!

[KpopSongsLover]

[adytan250998]

[SonyChin28]

[adytan250998]

@SonyChin28 Yeah I prefer chinese version... but tat may be bcos i prefer canto and chinese

[cwlow888]

I studied and worked in The States for 16 years. I love The States. When I got back to Singapore in 06 and heard this song, it touched me and made me feel so proud, so happy and so honored to be a Singaporean, till today. I absolutely love this NDP song, the lyrics of the song are true to me.... Singapore is a wonderful place to be, Happy Birthday Singapore, and Thank You!

[Zoro]

[saffysincere]

this has got to be one of the best Singapore national day them song :D

[MrCharmaine1234]

BEST NDP SONG EVER. 'NUFF SAID (;

[Poccka1]

2006 NDP is the last for Kallang National stadium before tearing down and i was there !

[powerof9forever]

@Poccka1

I was even there performing and practiced for 4 months.

[Poccka1]

@powerof9forever Good for you.. No performing this year ?

[powerof9forever]

@Poccka1

Nah haha. I rather go watch BEAST and 4 Minute on Aug 13.

[TheGirliciousSource]

This is one of the best NDP songs ever.

[EoSiangHui]

I miss this song :D

[kidd12718]

i lovw this song....very much.....

[ttingfeng]

I love Singapore! ^^ Like @christina509 I had to leave because of my parents, but I'll never forget Singapore! All my best friends are there and I'll definitely go back often! <3 SINGAPORE IS #1!

[BiminiRosy]

Now i think this song is the best of all 2005-2010 theme songs.

[repivonex]

@2:43, Marina Bay Sands.

[BiminiRosy]

@repivonex yes. for 2007-2010 song don't have it... only this :)

[AkatsukiHime]

This is definitely my favourite NDP song, especially since I was P5 at that time <:

So nostalgic ♥

[blazingfir3z]

@AkatsukiHime 4 years yet Nostalgic!

I don't why (Probably because I've never really listen to the 2009 and 2010 theme songs), but I think this and reach out for the skies were the best! Didn't celebrate National Day either... Too addicted to com :X

Oh well, when there's a new song, maybe I'll care xD

Oh, and I was P4 when this song came out. Back then I didn't use com as much xD

[relicbane]

where was i in 2006? i've never heard this song before in my life. hahahaha pretty nice composition, although the trite lyrics remain from year to year.

[tubeidiot88]

In my opinion, this is one of the best NDP songs I've heard.2005's reach out for the skies is to cartoon,2004's home is too grandmother(older people will like it)and if the song is not really nice, mb will make a parody 2007's and 2008 are of a acceptable standard.2009 electrico was not so good therefore mb made a parody, this year better than 2009, but not as good as 2006

[sujurox21]

i prefer old songs MUCH thn the new ones. they're not as cathy and nice as these songs. happy national day!!

[mryota123]

KOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLl

[singersfan1]

my fave



[MapleGirl27z]

Hah.. Singapore is turning 45th :) HAPPY 45TH Birthday SINGAPORE ... Just 5 more Days and it will be Singapore's B-day >.> (Posted On 3rd Aug 2010)

[xxviolasinxx]

why do people even dislike this song :( ?

[thatwasouch]

I miss the old times, where everyone played together, not as stressful as now.. :P

[pehyuyun]

Luv this song!

[theshadowsofthenight]

im tearing up

[eltonluvmantou]

OOOO!!! I saw smth, is the golden sand project started since 2006?! 2:42 i saw smth lyke the sand

[benheng08]

@eltonluvmantou Yes it is. Marina Bay Sands is an ambitious (and successful) project started by the government many years ago. Kudos to the Singapore Government's amazing foresight! Happy 45th birthday Singapore! :)

[frozenapplejuice]

Excellent diction there. Pity I didn't know it very well when it was the theme song for the year. I realised how crucial Primary school music teachers are in ensuring we know the theme songs every year.

[Avalanste]

Kaira gong was my ex-classmate's friend, think was during RJC period, but my ex-classmate say she may looked small size, but her voice is empowering.

[commz59]

Singapore at 45 is FABULOUS :)

[TheChtwn1]

stop kidding yourself ting985. most of these returnees to singapore are social rejects overseas or people who fail to adapt mostly in the west and return to the untravelled locals western they are. so phoney! eventually, they tend to show their tyrannical colours. they bully foreign workers -maids and such - and scorn the untravelled locals like the ex-colonial masters of singapore . besides , their hangouts are mostly where locals can't afford to go on a regular basis as many videos here show.

[Fyanzx96]

I still remember this song. Where I had fun laughing with my mates while singing in the school hall. I miss those times together..

[ahhh196]

YAY:) NDP is coming:) I love this song, it's one of my favourites!

[ValerieaSays]

Who are the one who hated the song? fuck off, its the best. i love it, i was sad when i only left singapore for only 10 days..

[blackforest]

what happened to kaira gong?

[takethewheelJESUS]

who are the 35 who disliked this video?

[wako407]

Nor will she forget me!! I don't think Singapore knows what's my name...

[WishingBabyX]

Racist from singapore can go to The stupid china and stay!

[angelbratzmoongirl]

@christina509 when you come back to singapore will be nicer and better then used too

[fcukyouuuuus]

My favourite ndp theme song ever :)

[nievesbl]

Beautiful music and a great video!

[T3xasC0wgirl]

My favourite NDP theme song

[buildabearvillefan11]

singapore is a girl?????????!!!!!!!!!

[MrH0me]

@buildabearvillefan11 a country always called by "she". The same goes for ships, guns, etc.

[WishingBabyX]

@buildabearvillefan11

NO! AND SHOW RESPECT!

[ahhh196]

@buildabearvillefan11 all countries are hers. as are inanimate objects like ships, cars etc. don't be silly. don't you know anything 'bout english?

[zachela]

i love singapore no matter what. because its part of me. XD

[tzeheng96]

Sux tis song

[axesebi]

I am a Singaporean, and I am very patriotic to my country. Listening to all these songs rises my love for Singapore and makes me feel proud to be part of this country.

All Hail Singapore!

[StarViolet211]

same same me and my sis are also Singaporean

[cassiegirl]

havent heard this in a looooong time.

[poison3v3]

i am patriotic to singapore,and i love singapore much than my country,even though i'm not singaporean(not yet maybe hehe)

[CivicMindedCitizen]

Wow! Time flies! Its almost 4 years since the last comment was written here.

The song is still as beautiful but I am not sure if Singaporeans are as patriotic now.

Economy and public sentiment is at all time low. We shall see how many seats in parliament the PAP will loose to the opposition in this coming General Election.

[ifastar151]

my fav song

[ifastar151]

my fav song

[BEARI13]

I LOVE THIS SONG TOTALLY TOUCHING!!! OMG I feel like crying. this song reminds me of my childhood and it holds the only last part of the memories i had as a child i feel very comforted whenever i hear this song....

[benjyaw]

excellent video. the video footages in this one are probably the best among all the other NDP videos we had so far. Lyrics are extremely meaningful and touching. Doesn't feel so corny like the rest of the national songs. I truly feel Singaporean listening to this!
