There are 2 songs written for this yr's youth Olympics in SG. One is composed and sung by JJ, it's called "You Are The One, Singapore", but i guess everyone remembers it as, "Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Hey! Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh yeah Ho!" with the weird hand sign...I think it's weird and totally spoils his idol image and lowers his song writing standards.
While the other song, composed by the Singapore Idol judge with that i-am-irritated face, Ken Lim, called "Everyone", sung by various young artists from all over the world, each representing one region. This is a much better song than JJ's. Both lyrics and melody...
Tabitha Walls are down Hopes arise Rings of the world unite
Steve Every child Has a wish To glow like the stars above
Jessica ~ Bridge 1 Lift our voices as victories blaze This is the day to win with grace
Chorus Raise your hand for our generation Fly the flags of every nation Reaching out for that moment in our lives Raise your hand for our generation Living out your aspiration Time to fly way beyond the skies A world that shines for everyone
Jody Be the best Go all the way Friends beyond the race
Sean Cheer the joy Share the tears The journey remains our pride
Chorus Raise your hand for our generation Fly the flags of every nation Reaching out for that moment in our lives Raise your hand for our generation Living out your aspiration Time to fly way beyond the skies
Bridge 2 * Lift our voices as victories blaze This is the day the world will shine on for everyone
Chorus Raise your hand for our generation Fly the flags of every nation Reaching out for that moment in our lives Raise your hand for our generation Living out your aspiration Time to fly way beyond the skies A world that shines for everyone A world that shines for everyone
Now it's time for some Chinese Songs. This is by 浪花兄弟&周杰倫, it gives a similar feeling as 稻香，because of the homely feeling and warmth that can be felt from the songs...
你是我的OK绷 --> OK绷 means plaster in taiwan...
一个人的时候 在陌生的街头
抬头看着繁星夜垂的天空
I know I know 地球另一端有你陪我
谢谢你鼓励我 勇气是你给我
让我迈开脚步一起往前走
I know I know 你是我的OK绷 在每一个时候
拿一个旧皮箱 装着我的梦想
我要开始决定旅程的方向
设计稿在桌上 一叠伟大理想
当成这些卖不出去公仔的床
有 天 我突发奇想
把这些公仔送孤儿院的小孩
看着他们的表情 满足的那模样
看着他们快乐 我也跟着饱了
离开了家乡 开始我的流浪
身上只带着公仔Qpee和Guitar
它们陪着我 永远不寂寞
还有还有一只大狼狗
牠名叫阿福 整天跟着我
在我最最难过的时候
给我温暖的眼神
肯定的微笑 准备 往前出发
一个人的时候 在陌生的街头
抬 头看着繁星夜垂的天空
I know I know 地球另一端有你陪我
谢谢你鼓励我 勇气是你给我
让我迈开脚步一起往前走
I know I know 你是我的OK绷
在每一个时候 一直陪着我
外婆 教我唱的童谣我也从来没忘过
她说周杰伦唱的稻香她也没忘过
就算失败就算沮丧依然记得回家
伤心就抱着家人朋友好好哭一场
艳阳会晒乾一切一切烦恼忧伤
服下我的疗伤歌曲良药并不苦
用耳朵用心听我唱 我的精彩故事还没说完
蝴蝶蝴蝶飞在天空挥动翅膀阿哈
牠其实从前也只是只毛毛虫
阿不要灰心 钱没再赚 失恋再谈
只有生命不能重来 所以珍惜它的精彩
我们全都是渺小蚂蚁 却都有存在的那意义
不愿失去 别失去勇气 那就创造回忆
裙摆舞动飘逸 踏出旋律涟漪的倒影
一个人的时候 在陌生的街头
抬头看着繁星夜垂的天空
I know I know 地球另一端有你陪我
谢谢你鼓励我 勇气是你给我
让我迈开脚步一起往前走
I know I know 你是我的OK绷 在每一个时候
一直陪着我
趁太阳放慢脚步如果你想跟上就必须要更努力
折一架音符纸飞机（音符纸飞机）
心系着未来的奇蹟（未来的奇蹟）
飞吧 用美丽旋律来洗礼 我们在大树下的约定
（杰伦） 一个人的时候 在陌生的街头
抬头看着繁星夜垂的天空
I know I know 地球另一端有你陪我
谢谢你鼓励我 勇气是你给我
让我迈开脚步一起往前走
I know I know 你是我的OK绷
在每一个时候 一直陪着我
10 June 2010 @ June 10, 2010
I went out on tuesday with my mum to have lunch, watch Shrek Forever After @ Golden Village Tampines and went to buy a pair of shoes and 2 pairs of shorts, water boiler and have dinner with bro.
You'll nva believe how many ppl i met, in a single day. SE7EN encounters with familiar faces.. where by about 4-5 which i can actually name them out.
First i met my malnutrition wushu junior, nicholas, @ the ticketing booth. He has GROWN TALLER. good thing. haha! but not my height yet. Seriously, there was once he was late for cca and the MC he presented to me stated that he went to see a nutritionist for health checkup. heheh. and we both got shocked when we saw each other and said a simple hi~
Then when i finished purchasing the tickets, i saw the backview of, chia chang, i'm 80% sure that it was him, he was @ the arcade. So wanting to not let him see me, i quickly grabbed my mum's arm and dragged her away from the area.. hahah
After which, i saw the class-next-door chairman, 416's siqi, she didn see me...
Following up, i saw those pro sch/national team girls that we played floorball against during a church event with serene. I recgonised cos of the floorball sticks.. lol.
Then i saw this guy from mjc whom i have seen a couple of times in sch, maybe he's either adarrel's or jarren's friend, then he gave me the 3-seconds-stare, showing that i-see-this-face-before-look.
After the movie, my mum and i went for the rest room and i met my wushu senior, vivian. and we said hi :)
Lastly, when my bro finally came for dinner, i saw jansen bek with a grp of frens, i guess they're going to sakae sushi...and again, he didn see me. cos i was in a restaurant. :D
see.. it's kinda freaky, to see soo many ppl in a day.
okay, i don't know how am i supposed to end this.
Alright how about this way:
I hear my stomach growling now, so i shall stop here and go feed my tummy. :)
Hi, i have been listening to this song called SOLO, by this weird guy with a weird name called Iyaz. read as I-Yeszzz
there a part of the lyric that goes like this, " I don't want to walk this earth if i gotta do it, solo~" haha, it's replaying in my head again and again... especially the melody, cos the melody is nice.
Then, i after i finished this video i scanned through the related videos section on the right and i saw this song called "Replay". I was like, okay, since i like this song i shall try his other songs too, and guess what i hear...
It's the famous : Shortie like a melody in my head that i can't keep out, got me singing like na na na na na, everyday, like my ipod stuck on replay replay...
O.O so no wonder i find his new song, Solo, so addictive. =.= cos he's the addictive singing person that made my class and school ppl keep on singing that "shortie like a melody in my head" song. haha. a brand new discovery.
Following up i watch another music video whereby this Iyaz guy was featured in this girl's music video, called Pyramid. This girl, has an AMAZING VOICE. serious. Her name is Charice. No, not Cha-rice. Read as Sher-ris. And she's the same age as us! Her had her talent discovered when she was 15. can u believe it?! earlier than Justing Bieber :X haha!
This was how she looked like then, when she was invited to perform at a korean variety show that features amazing acts, Star King.
And there she is now, singing her heart out with Iyaz the.. freaky addictive singer.
The lyrics of Pyramid are beautifully written too.
Shawty's love is like a pyramid (ooh) <<< how can Iyaz forget his addictive shawty's like a melody... part We stand together till the very end (ooh) There'll never be another love for sure (ooh) Iyaz and Charice let we go
Stones, heavy like the love you've shown (shown) Solid as the ground we've known (known) And I just wanna carry on We took it from the bottom up (no no no) And even in a desert storm (yeah) Sturdy as a rock we hold (oh) Wishing every moment froze Now I just wanna let you know Earthquakes can't shake us Cyclones can't break us Hurricanes can't take away our love
Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock It feels just like it's heaven's touch Together at the top (at the top baby), like a pyramid And even when the wind is blowing We'll never fall just keep on going Forever we will stay, like a pyramid
Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh (ooh) Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh (ooh) Like a pyramid like a pyramid eh eh (oooh)
Cold (cold), never ever when you're close (close) We will never let it fold (fold) A story that was never told Something like a mystery (yoh! )
And every step we took we've grown Look how fast the time has flown A journey to a place unknown We're going down in history
Earthquakes can't shake us (oh) Cyclones can't break us (oh) Hurricanes can't take away our love
Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock (hey! ) It feels just like it's heaven's touch Together at the top, (at the top baby) like a pyramid And even when the wind is blowing (wind is blowing) We'll never fall just keep it going (keep it going) Forever we will stay, like a pyramid (eh oh)
Like a pyramid girl let me show you That I love you so much That we gonna get through (oh oh) Even when there's storms I will never go, Imma be the one to keep you safe (hey) Before was our love back it up more than enough Holding on to one another be the cover when it's rough (oh oh) Mother nature (hey) or disaster won't stop at happy ever after
Pyramid, keep it going (like a pyramid, like a pyramid) Oh oh ooooh (like a pyramid, like a pyramid)
Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock (solid rock) It feels just like it's heaven's touch (oooh) Together at the top (at the top baby, at the top girl), like a pyramid And even when the wind is blowing We'll never fall just keep on going (keep it going) Forever we will stay (Charice), like a pyramid (what what)
Pyramid, we built this on a solid rock It feels just like it's heaven's touch Together at the top (at the top baby, at the top girl), like a pyramid (pyramid) And even when the wind is blowing We'll never fall just keep it going Forever we will stay (ooh), like a pyramid
