    Dear Singaporeans, we’re happy to finally unveil ‘The Road Ahead’, the theme song for NDP 2021! As we continue to face uncertain times this year, the NDP 2021 theme song, "The Road Ahead", reminds us that there is strength to be found in unity. This is not the first time we have faced tough times, and as long as we stand together, we shall overcome the odds. Just like our theme this year - we can do anything Together, with Our Singapore Spirit ❤️

    Lyrics:
    One man on an island
    One drop in the sea
    All it takes to set a wave in motion
    Is a single word, an action
    A hope that we can be
    The change that we’ve been longing to see
    For our home, our land, our family
    It’s all within our reach
    See this island, every grain of sand
    Hear this anthem, it’s the voices of our friends
    Come whatever on the road ahead
    We did it before, and we’ll do it again
    When the moments turn to hours
    And the day’s last light is gone
    Look around us always and remember
    There were times we were uncertain
    But we just kept walking on
    It’s always darkest just before the dawn
    See this island, every grain of sand
    Hear this anthem, it’s the voices of our friends
    Come whatever on the road ahead
    We did it before, and we’ll do it again
    Our home, the home we share
    Where the garden always grows toward the light
    Though the road ahead is daunting,
    I know we’re gonna be alright
    See this island, every grain of sand
    Hear this anthem, it’s the voices of our friends
    Come whatever on the road ahead
    We did it before, and we’ll do it again

So much details to appreciate in this video! :)

    So many things to love in this mv.
    First singer Linying-lovely, soothing, quiet voice.
    Shabir, I can't believe I hear him for the first time. What a soulful voice, just stirs you in the deep.
    Lines looking so simple but similarly stirring -
    "we did it before, we'll do it again."
    "garden that grows towards the light" uplifting.
    The animations!!!!! *scream *
    The sushi belt with local hawker food, riding on the mrt (sets my imagination flyyyyyyyyyying) and then the kallang wave on that buidling (lethal combination of two fondest memories) ..that whole series is mind blowing creative..
    The next animation where one steps off the boat and ran on the track, leaps over a hurdle, did a ballet turn, with a baby running to his dad... That whole sequence was beautiful. The transitions were smooth, and it gives a sense of so much space, reflecting how big the creator's mind is.
    All in, AMAZING production. As a middle aged, I can feel that surge of talent from younger Singaporeans in this proudction. Everything from filming, singing, song writing, animation.. Talent with so much heart. And multiple depiction of spatial vastness reflects the aspirations these youngsters have. I am so so so proud of you guys... *tears in my eyes*

    IMO - the song acknowledges our challenges, but is both hopeful and quietly confident. It recognizes our past and celebrates our present (through animation). It doesn't pretend to be cool or be something it's not, and it's genuine and heartfelt. It finally sounds like what an NDP song should be. (It's also easy and nice to sing, and the video is wonderfully creative and AMAZINGLY done.)
    This is easily the best NDP song of the past 10 years, and almost definitely even further back than that. It's the first song I've listened to on repeat and that I've actually wanted to sing since the late 2000's.

    Into my twilight years but I am very heartened to see, hear and feel the rhythm of the youth in this NDP composition. It shows maturity in understanding that the past was not easy, but the future has a template for success that the youth know how to unlock. The traditional economic success no longer works but the more existential issues of relationships and sense of love for our families, friends and fellow Singaporeans are the cornerstones of rebranding our nation for the next century.

    Really like this NDP song very much! I think many Singaporeans would be able to relate to the song, young or old. Refreshingly different, meaningful, heartwarming & yet uniquely Singapore without being gimmicky and cheesy like most of the past NDP songs! Probably the best NDP song so far by! But of course, the MV is well produced and contributed to the song!

    Kudos to the production team for doing the unprecedented, filming within COVID-19 restrictions and making good use of graphics to illustrate the beauty of our island and the people. The song is also very soothing and warm. Indeed, we did it before, and we will do it again! Stay strong SINGAPORE ❤

    Anyone noticed the song started from morning (upbeat music) till evening and when Shabir voice came out for the evening segment it became very soft and soothing like a lullaby to enter into the night.

      Actually it started from around mid-day, then sunset when we reach the CBD scene, and night time during Shye's second line, then sunrise, the kid wakes up, then Shabir's voice, and the birds start singing and they prepare to open the shops....midday....and then zoom right to sunset again. lol

    This is the best local song since 'Home', still listening to it past National Day. Only small pity that it came out during the pandemic where it may have gone less appreciated even though the lyrics are more fitting. Hope this delightful song with touching visuals and meaningful lyrics becomes a mainstay of NDP songs for many years to come!

      Not true, the fact that it appeared during a pandemic made this song even more special and it will be engraved in our hearts for decades to come. Everytime we hear this in future we will tell our grandchildren this was the time where we suffered but persevered.

    Finally. Very long don't have this type of NDP song already. Thanks for this NDP song for giving us a renewed inspiration.
    This song really got that energy that would encourage everyone to not think about going back to pre-covid times, but to keep advancing forward and bring about a better tomorrow.

    Wah.. this hits home. Love the use of younger singers and the mix of our 4 races (assuming lady in green is Eurasian). The visuals triggers glimpes of our daily life & grind, envisioning brighter days for our future, along with the cartoonish flashbacks of nostalgic memories..
    Very well done!!!❤️❤️❤️
