    ...shouldn't it be more precise like: Gong xi, gong xi gong xi ni ''AH'' (after the every 2nd chorus):)?

    .
    Not only with one "AH", but can be with many (inserted everywhere throughout the song). :D:D:D

    Sirs, yes it is included (ah)...but several ''ah''s is a bit on the naughty side if that's the kind of fun you're trying to incite:).

    chriss-ccc, since u r seemingly a karaoke-type kind...try karaokeing Maroon V's songs...let's start with ''Wont' go Home without You'':).

    Btw, the other day, (pardon my ignorance) for the first time, I heard grunge-music and I thought...how do you karaoke it?

    Yes, our choir enjoyed singing this Indonesian number not too long ago and our tenor section had a chance to go 'solo' for a small part.

    But now we are trying to sing the Filipino number "Paruparong Bukid" which describes a "butterfly" - a young lady with a beautiful and unusual dress that flutters about when she sways her hips. :D

    And the "West Side Story" by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. :)

    Very tough going! :(

    And this morning, before going to the office, I've been trying to learn to sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. The notes say this song should be sung "with great warmth, like a hymn".

    You'll Never Walk Alone

    .
    Ah... You'll Never Walk Alone, the great song that Liverpool FC, Tokyo FC, etc, etc, ...... took as their club's song. :):):)

    It's such an emotional/inspiring song, that it makes me want to cry every time I sing it.

    Here, Gerry and the Pacemakers made us want to sing loud and clear;

    You'll Never Walk Alone

    The lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II:

    When you walk through a storm,
    Keep your chin up high
    And don't be afraid of the dark,
    At the end of the storm is a golden sky
    And the sweet silver song of a lark.

    Walk on through the wind,
    Walk on through the rain,
    Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown
    Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
    And you'll never walk alone,

    You'll never walk alone!



    Perhaps when our elite players are down, they should sing this song to remind themselves that they'll "Never Walk Alone!" :)

    Makes a perfect alma mater song since you said ALL individuals moving forward (university/career path)?

    Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown
    Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart

    The Young Ones

    .
    :D:D:D If posters in the first page are from the old school, then the old schoolers love singing and dancing more than 'The Young Ones'.

    Have a look at 'The Young Ones' here;

    The Young Ones Lyrics
    Artist(Band):Cliff Richard



    The young ones,
    Darling we're the young ones,
    And young ones shouldn't be afraid.

    To live, love
    While the flame is strong,
    for we may not be the young ones very long.

    Tomorrow,
    why wait till tomorrow,
    Tomorrow sometimes never comes.
    Love, me,
    there's a song to be sung
    And the best time is to sing while we're young.

    Once in every lifetime
    comes a love like this.
    I need you and you need me.
    Oh my darling can't you see.

    Young dreams
    Should be dreamed together,
    Young hearts shouldn't be afraid.
    And some day when the years have flown
    Darling, this will teach the young ones of our own.

    The young ones
    Darling, we're the young ones
    The young ones
    Darling, we're the young ones.
