Nebbermind:

do children still sing the 'sama sama...' children's day song these days?


never knew how to sing it or its meaning.

for those interested, can check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semoga_Bahagia

my boy school still 'teaches' them now.
i sang it a couple of weeks back and he immediately knew it was for children's day.

they still do sing a couple of old songs like 'planting rice', 'community song' etc.

Talking about old songs. I like the "Courtesy" song, "Courtesy is for free, courtesy is for you and me. It makes for pleasant living and harmony…" something like that…

Aiyoh! My husband sings it as \" ka-chiak see is for free, ka-chiak see is for you and me. \" I think ka-chiak see means cockroach shit? This is what he learnt from his elite boys school in those days. :shock:

and what about ‘Sing your way home’ ? there were both english and mandarin versions and the latter was sang by maggie teng…
