The NDP banners are starting to go up all over Singapore. The fighter jets are doing their rehearsals in the sky.
We at Songcraft are gonna do our little part for National Day too! (After all, Songcraft is proud to be a group that does its part to promote the passion for songwriting in Singapore.)
Here’s the deal: If you’re running out of ideas for the next Songcraft session on 18th July, here’s one: Write a National Day song and present it at the next session!
You can choose to write a clean-cut, safe-sounding, goody-goody-two-shoes type of NDP song (the type that will get you in the good books of the NDP committee), or you could write a tongue-in-cheek kind of song. It’s completely up to you.
Come 18th July, we’ll come together and share our songs, and see what kind of national day songs we can come up with. It’s gonna be fun.
And then when 9th of August comes, you can sing your own NDP song to your friends and family, haha!
Of course, all other regular, non-National Day songs are still welcomed at the next Songcraft session.
Happy writing!
