We are dying slowly everyday but I had never expected it be so soon for me. Fact is every year during this period, I will be enthusiastically anticipating the next long-awaited National Day Song. It is very apparent to me that my hearing is failing as surely as the next comet that will erase human civilization in the soon to arrive end of days.
The mighty island, the unbeatable Singapore Pride, the perfection of perfections. It just cannot be possible that the unwavering red dot is heading in any other direction but up. As such, I can and I will only blame my loss of hearing when my ears and cortex are unable to comprehend the noise of recent years.
So please join me to celebrate this oh-so-joyous occasion of listening to the awesome songs of recent years and reminisce the popular older songs which the vastly superior new songs are obviously based off. /cough
