Happy 43th Birthday Singapore!
NDP 2008 Theme Song - Shine for Singapore
The theme for this year's NDP is "Celebrating the Singapore Spirit" and the theme song reflects this theme by calling Singaporeans to "Shine for Singapore". In line with this theme, the concept of the music video aims to reflect the Singapore Spirit through the unfolding of three inspirational stories that portrays compassion, determination and the nurturing of the young.
The first story tells of how a newspaper delivery man perseveres to train for a vertical marathon by taking the stairs to distribute papers despite his old age.
Another story illustrates how a boy shows compassion to girl with a limp by designing a pair of special shoes for her, to enable her to walk normally.
The last story depicts how parents and teachers can nurture a child by being supportive and patient in understanding her creative vision.
The music video ends with the piecing up of the child's art pieces to form a huge star - the motif of the music video that signifies every Singaporean is a star in their own way, shining bright for Singapore.
Have you seen a star,
One that guides you no matter where you are?
However vast the sky may be
Or dark it seems
You can be sure, it's always there for you and me
Have you heard a song,
One that moved you, one that made you sing along?
Your dreams and hopes will all come true
If you believe that every vision begins with you.
* Shine for Singapore
This is your song
Deep inside your heart where it belongs
It'll always stay, strive for your goals.
You will achieve with visions so bold.
# Shine for Singapore
This is our song
Reach out for the sky, far and beyond
As one we'll stand, we're Singapore
It's here that we belong
Have you heard a song,
One that moved you, one that made you sing along?
Your dreams and hopes will all come true
If you believe that every vision begins with you.
Nowhere I'd rather be, this is home to me
This star shines strong and free
Tyrone & his creamy salmon.
With Quincy..
I'll sleep to forget you..
