  • This is Singapore 2006 National Day Parade's theme!
    The Singer is Kaira Gong.
    This is the lyrics:
    My Island Home
    This is my home
    She's everything to me
    Grace and beauty
    In all that you see
    My island home
    Wherever I may be
    I never will forget her
    Nor will she forget me
    Chorus ^
    And I will sing
    A song of home
    A land of peace
    Where dreams are born everyday
    My home
    Wherever I may be
    I believe
    You will always be a part of me ^
    My island home
    Home of my family
    This is my future
    Where I want to be
    (This is my future
    This is my home)
    Repeat Chorus x 2
    My home
    Wherever I may be
    I believe
    You will always be a part of me
    A part of me

    "You will always be a part of me" - wow I hear this song every time it is National Day. The songs of the yesteryears were way much better than today's. Kaira is a gem and she sang this song with emotion. Love it.

    I was there as a South Korean representative for the international physics olympiad 2006. I was amazed by the cleanliness of the streets and advanced facilities of NTU. The food was amazing too. The memory of this song still moves my heart. Singaporeans are one of the smartest and most hard-working peoples in the world. I am proud that Marina Bay Sands was built by a Korean company. My best wishes from South Korea.

    This is better than the other Singapore patriot songs I've seen on youtube. It's a lot less cheesy, shows the diversity well, and concentrates a lot on the mix of ancient and technologically advanced. That's really Singapore.
