Masia One ft. Iratio - Singapura ft. Iratio (raw mix)

from Singapura by Masia One

/

about

Masia One version of a famous Singaporean song "Singapura" recorded with the acoustic accompaniment of Jamaican musican, Iratio. This has been recorded to celebrate Singapore's 50 years of independence.

Story: Walking along the road on the West end of Negril in Jamaica, Masia found a studio called Mad Rebel and began to sing this folk song for the musicians there. One of the players, Iratio, picked up his guitar and began strumming - and the result is this raw and simple version of an age old classic.

lyrics

Singapura, Oh Singapura
Sunny island in the sea
Singapura, Oh Singapura
Pretty flowers here for you and me

Now the love that we had was a feeling we shared for everybody
But the money it came and took all vibration away
Said that love that we had was a feeling we shared for everybody
But the money it came and took all vibration away
Oh Singapura

Singapura, Oh Singapura
Sunny island in the sea
Singapura, Oh Singapura
Pretty flowers here for you and me

Singapura mi a cruise up on the town
Singapura mi a chat one pon di sound
Dem a try, but they can't find the island now, so we make them feel irie
Yeah

Singapura we go mekan in the town
Singapura got the taste from all around
Iratio in the place, get big and loud
Cause we make them feel irie

Singapura, Oh Singapura
Sunny island in the sea
Singapura, Oh Singapura
Pretty flowers here for you and me
