It was okay,
our performance was okay.

Sure, we did mix up the lyrics initially and we were singing too quickly,
but we were more stable towards the end.
Generally, it was fine.
At least we didn't make any mistakes for 炮竹一声大地春 .
The only problem was the microphone,
which apparently wasn't on,
and it is not our fault.

We know that we've tried our best,
so regardless of what your schoolmates say,
do not be discouraged.

Our next practice will be on thursday, 18th of feb.
Remember to turn up on time!

Lastly,
the committee would like to wish everyone,

a very HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR

& VALENTINE'S DAY :D

Hello.

To all chinese students:

Please MEMORIZE the lyrics of the 2 CNY songs.

We will be performing on the 12th of feb.

You MUST memorize the lyrics of the 2 songs

by Monday, 8th of feb.


The following is a link to the 细水长流 music video
and the song lyrics.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0clcDm-2bM&feature=related





















The NEXT LINK, is a music video of 炮竹一声大地春。
Apparently, it is sung by some kids :X
But the video includes the chinese lyrics
and the 汉语拼音 (han yu pin yin) too.
So, i think it's a rather good video.

It appears that some of you are unable to catch up with the song's speed,
especially at the 听啊,霹雳叭啦叭啦 part.
So it's best if you memorise the lyrics first,
then sing that part by yourself at your own slow pace.
Then, when you're able to sing it properly,
try to sing faster and faster until it is the actual song speed.

Good luck memorising :D
