Hi guys!
Welcome back to another episode of #LifeAtTSL.
As you can tell from my dressing,
I am feeling the Singapore spirit very much today.
That's because, in partnership with KFC
Who is launching their Cereal Chicken for National day,
I will be going around the office to see
If our colleagues know NDP songs well enough.
I mean... I know lah.
♫ See this island, every grain of sand ♫
♫ Hear this a- ♫
Fauzi~
Oh no...
You are dressed to the occasion like me.
Guess what's the occasion.
The independence of..
Singapore!
That's right!
In the spirit of National Day,
I'm going to see how well you know our NDP songs.
Oh my god.
As you can see, I have many challenges over here.
You will just randomly pick one and we'll see what challenge you get.
Why is it in a KFC cup?
Because if you pass the challenge,
I will reward you with a Cereal Chicken from KFC.
Oh! Actually, that's very appropriate.
The people who perform during National Day always eats KFC.
Oh, is it?
That's their standard meal.
I didn't know that.
Oh my god, I'm scared eh. I'll just pick this one.
Please be easy.
Alamak!
The thing is I know this song!
I literally saw this on YouTube the other day.
Would you like some clue?
Yes, I need a clue.
- We do charades for the song title. - Okay, okay!
Together.
We
We walk there.
We something something there.
We will get there.
- Yessss! - Oh my god!
Now, do you know the song?
♫ We will get there ♫
That's all I remember.
♪ We Will Get There - Stefanie Sun ♪
I'll give you two choices.
Do you want me to hum the tune or charades?
As your number 1 fan and president of the Charsew fan club,
The answer is hum.
No... What the heck was that?
Ok, charades lah.
I tried.
My heart beat.
My heart.
♫ Deep in my heart I will know ♫
♫ There's still a long long way to go ♫
♫ We will get there ♫
Yay!
Suddenly when you said that, it jogged my memory.
What the heck?
That looks glorious leh!
It smells very legit.
Right? It's like the zi char (hawker) style.
Yeah, correct. Exactly that.
It's ok.
It's part of the experience.
Ok, I'm just going to bite it.
Wow, so crunchy! Wait ah.
Wah, damn.
Honestly, 10 out of 10 would order this again.
Hello Hafi.
Guess what's the theme for today's episode.
- Yeah, anyway? - Oh, Singapore!
That's right.
I'm going to see how well you know our NDP songs.
Okay, let's go.
Oh this one not bad,
This is the fun one.
♪ Reach Out For The Skies - Rui En & Taufik Batisah ♪
5 6 7 8
♫ Let's reach out for the skies ♫
♫ (With) dreams we soar up high ♫
♫ Let's soar and reach for the sky ♫
Would you like collaborate with me some day?
Sure.
Actually I am also a professional rapper.
I forgot to add that in.
Same here!
We are all rounders.
Oh my god, our group name can be 'All Rounders'.
Hafi and Sew.
Or circles. Then only smart people get it.
We are Circles.
One more time.
Not circus ah, I don't want to be (a) clown.
- How to pronounce again? - Circles.
We are..
Circles.
Oh my god!
Wah, very nice.
They marinated the chicken to have this kick.
So it's not just the cereal taste.
There's a hint of spicy taste which I like.
If you pass the challenge,
I will give you your favorite Cereal Chicken from KFC!
I bought it when it was first launched and I loved it.
When this song came out I was one year old.
♪ Singapore Town (1997) ♪
I don't know leh.
Okay, don't worry.
I will sing the front part and you complete the lyrics.
Okay, we try.
So the title is Singapore Town?
Correct!
[PD] Is we'll meh?
Wait ah.
This producer very strict.
- Never mind, you sing it slowly for her to hear. - OK.
♫ Because in Singapore ♫
♫ Singapore ♫
♫ You'll find happiness ♫
♫ For everyone ♫
That's right!
Correct right, producer?
Your favourite!
(I would like to thank my mom...)
Okay, hold on.
I need a spoon to scoop the cereal first.
- I got a spoon! - Oh.
I got a spoon for you, I got you.
I love.
It should be a staple item.
♫ Adria Tham ♫
♫ Adria Tham Tham Thambelina ♫
♫ Oh, Adria Tham in TSL ♫
Our strongstra-
Songstra-
Okay, wait.
The bigger the number (of the year), the more I don't know.
Do you know the title got how many words?
Two words only.
Huh, two words only ah? One Singapore.
Very very close.
Correct!
♪ Our Singapore - JJ Lin ♪
There's this part, it's just sounds.
He make sound?
Oooh~ kind?
Repeat!
[PD] No???
Oh wrong?
- I'm the worse person to see if it's correct. - Wait.
Is there other parts of the song?
- Must it be this 'woah' part? - There is.
But the other parts I think you cannot though.
- The tune ah... - Oh, is you don't know ah.
Ask Estee to sing?
Estee?
♫ So now we look around us and we see ♫
Just copy Estee.
Our island something free, is it?
No, okay. So think about LEGO.
What do you do with LEGO?
You build a nation with what?
Built by who?
This is working!
♫ A nation built with love by you and me ♫
(PD) No!
♫ Built with love ♫
♫ By you and me ♫
- Different meh??? - DIfferent.
♫ A land to treasure right down to the core ♫
♫ Our home, our heart, our Singapore ♫
JJ Lin! Singapore!
- Oh my god, the crunch! - Mmhm...
The cereal is so nice.
It's very fragrant.
I think it's a hit to many Singaporeans.
You can continue enjoying while I continue my job.
Every time I see you I want to laugh.
Why?
Because I know it's some singing thing, confirm.
Oh, I know.
♪ One Singapore ♪
Do you think you can hold the mic on one hand and dance with the other?
No need mic, I will have the headset mic here.
Let me give you a performance.
Let's use the cloth there.
This is dedication, everybody.
Hello everybody.
The next performance is by Zhin.
He is going to use the song, 'One Singapore'.
This is Singapore growing into whatever that we are today.
Then after that?
♫ Together ♫
♫ Together as one ♫
♫ We're so much more ♫
♫ One Singapore! ♫
Again, and go!
No, I'll become a dot again.
Can I have the chicken now please?
Your mic.
It is really sweet.
- It's sweet? Ooh. - Yeah.
At the end of it there is a bit of spiciness to it.
The cereal bits are very generous.
Yes, actually there is a lot more cereal in the box.
You can enjoy and rest, take out your mic soon.
If you need a backup dancer just call me.
Chow~
Hello.
Basically, if you pass the challenge,
I will give you a Cereal Chicken from KFC.
Wow! Mid-day treat.
In 2006 I was ten years old.
I have no recollection of what the NDP song was at all.
♪ My Island Home - Kaira Gong ♪
Who was the singer?
Don't worry because it's complete the lyrics.
Oh! Nice.
Something like that.
I'll give you a lifeline.
Multiple choice, a word reveal or call a friend for help.
I will go for multiple choice.
[PD] You need to let her hear the tune first.
My hOmE ~
[PD] Wait, I'll give you the tune.
- I swear the tune is correct. - Estee go.
Okay. :(
- ♫ And I will sing, a song of home ♫ - Oh my god, it's so different!
♫ You will always be a part of me ♫
This sounds absolutely different from what Sew shared with me.
I honestly don't get it.
It's the same guys.
- You listen one more time. - No I have the memory of Estee's version in my head.
So it is.
- ♫ mY hOmE ♫ - I don't think it's the last one.
It doesn't seem to fit well.
Now I think it's the last one.
Usually when I don't know the answer, I would always go for C.
Okay, I'll for C.
It sounds nice.
So even if it's not C, it should be.
Lock it in?
Lock it in.
And you are right!
Yessss!
Wah heng ah (lucky).
But we would like to clarify to the students who are watching.
We are not saying that if you don't know and you choose C, 90% of the time you get it right.
Ooh my god, the chicken.
Thank you Sew.
I will give you more cereal.
I like how they also have the curry leaves on it.
I think the general cereal flavor is very Singaporean, very local.
Something that I'm so familiar with.
Hey John John!
- You heard what happened just now right? - Yes, I heard.
Firstly, my memory is pretty shitty.
My singing is also pretty shitty.
I'm good at eating KFC.
- That's about it. - Sounds like me.
That did nothing to change the order. But it's ok.
Fine.
Who is Tanya Chua?
Maybe I give you some clues?
So do you want to guess how many words for the title?
I know NDP words are always very simple.
When you hear it you will get the warm feeling in the heart.
So less than five words, maybe three.
- Yes. - Three words, let me run through the catalog in my head.
I mean for obvious reasons its not, 'Home'.
Let me just pass you the card first so that you can take a look.
Oh I know already.
I prepare the mic first.
I think the title is, 'Where I Belong'.
Yes!
♪ Where I Belong - Tanya Chua ♪
But this last line very iffy so I will try my best.
♫ Where I belong ♫
♫ Where I keep my heart and soul ♫
♫ Where dreams come true for us ♫
♫ Where we walk together hand in hand ♫
♫ Towards the future so bright ♫
John John you are so bright!
Oh, so this is Tanya Chua.
Yes, now you know who already right?
Now I know who.
But I will probably still forget and only remember, 'Where I Belong'.
Wah!
The chicken is so good.
Because it's a messy chicken, so this is the kind that gives me home vibes.
Right.
Eat together kind.
This is so good. Is this really for me?
Yeah, the whole thing is for you.
I realised that many of us do remember NDP songs.
It's just that we need something to spark our memory.
A lot of them thought they forgot, but when I sing the tune, they remember.
Maybe not I sing, sometimes it's Estee.
I think it's the same.
But it doesn't matter.
Anyway it's time for me to eat the chicken.
Everybody ate it except me.
Aiyo.
Got nuggets?
Mash potato?
Ohhhh.
Thank you KFC for making this video possible.
If you would like to try the KFC Cereal Chicken, it is now available for a limited time only.
So please go and try it.
Maybe you can sing some NDP songs as you eat like what we did today.
