这首振奋人心的歌曲是新加坡花菲卫理小学小六学生Jacob Neo创作的“Singapore, Unite as One”。
这首歌在2月份首次公布，是Jacob Neo”想鼓励我们的医护人员继续挺进，并希望冠病病人加油，所有新加坡人团结一致！”而创作的歌曲。
近日，花菲卫理小学和中学向他们的学生发起邀请，呼吁学生们为这首歌录制一个片段。最终将收到的950多个来自小学和中学的学生、家长、教师以及校友的作品，制成MV。
Singapore, Unite as One Jacob Neo
You’re shut away,
you’re isolated Cut off,
from civilisation All alone,
with your hopes and dreams Shattered,
no longer free
But I want you to know that
you’re not alone
And I want you to feel that
you are at home
And the night looms the sun goes down
Day bleeds and light’s just a memory (memory)
The ‘crowns’ are invading us what can we do
This is agony… Yeah!
But we’ll be together through thick and the thin
As one country we’ll fight this virus and win
We’ll fight with our hearts and our minds and our souls
Protecting this island where we call our home
Fearful,
yet advancing
Fulfilling,
your duty and call
Knowing,
that there’s a purpose
Press on,
stand firm for all
But I want you to know that
you’re not alone
And I want you to feel that
you are at home
And the night looms the sun goes down
Day bleeds and light’s just a memory (memory)
The ‘crowns’ are invading us what can we do
This is agony… Yeah!
But we’ll be together through thick and the thin
As one country we’ll fight this virus and win
We’ll fight with our hearts and our minds and our souls
Protecting this island where we call our home
Singapore, we’ll stay together
Singapore, the time has come
Singapore, we’ll fight forever
Singapore, Unite as One!
Singapore, we’ll stay together
Singapore, the time has come
Singapore, we’ll fight forever
Singapore, Unite as One!
And the night looms the sun goes down
Day bleeds and light’s just a memory (memory)
The ‘crowns’ are invading us what can we do
This is agony… Yeah!
But we’ll be together through thick and the thin
As one country we’ll fight this virus and win
We’ll fight with our hearts and our minds and our souls
Protecting this island where we call our home
虽然Jacob Neo只是小六学生，没有接受过任何正规的校外音乐教育，并且在2019年才在普通音乐课程(GMP)中第一次尝试作曲，但他只用了两天就完成了旋律和歌词！并且歌词中充满了对医务人员辛苦抗疫的感谢之情。
General Music Programme (GMP)
新加坡小学及中学的学生均可修读普通音乐课程。它有助提高学生的整体教育素质，并有助培养学生成为了解艺术的观众。通过创作音乐、唱歌和演奏乐器，学生学会以不同的方式创造性地表达自己。倾听和欣赏的技巧使他们能够在一生中对新的音乐做出反应并参与其中。
