"Home" (1998) written by Dick Lee, and sung by Kit Chan is a perennial favourite for Singaporeans.
Why?
Singaporeans like "Home" because we are NOT "rah-rah sis-boom-bah" jingoists.

Singapore to import electricity?
[From Feb 2020. In draft for over a year.]
On Facebook, this news was met with derision and incredulity.
And what I could call "patriotic anxiety".
Why is Singapore doing this? Netizens (Singaporeans) were bemused. We had just severed our dependence on Malaysia for Water. Why start to depend on Malaysia for another critical resource?
Let me explain... well, this is my interpretation.
Vaccines and Conspiracy Theories.
This may come across as an argument against the anti-vaxxers (in general) as well as the vaccine-hesitant (specific to Covid-19) in Singapore.
That is not my intent.
For the hardcore, "Andrew Wakefield is a saint", "Medicine is poison!" "Big Pharma is Evil!" "Vaccines causes autism!" anti-vaxxer, science cannot reach them. Logic is beyond them. Reason does not interest them. Facts bore them. They are unteachable/unreachable. They have gone down the rabbit hole, and there's no way to pull them out.
