- Voices of Singapore is proud to present the Singapore Virtual Choir Project with Dick Lee's "Home".
Over 900 voices of people living in Singapore together with Singaporeans from 26 countries around the world unite to sing for hope, strength, and love in the first ever Singapore Virtual Choir. We believe that music has the power to bring us together.
Singing the nation’s most well-loved song, "Home" written by Dick Lee with choral arrangement by Darius Lim, the Singapore Virtual Choir initiative has demonstrated the resilience of Singapore as a country. It has been incredibly heartwarming to witness the extraordinary strength, love and support from those in Singapore, as well as Singaporeans all around the world. Wherever we are in the world, we are proud to be the voices of our nation - We are SGUnited.
Presented by Voices of Singapore, supported by Singapore Tourism Board (STB), and partnered by Pink Noise and Createurs Productions.

What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger
Hang in there, my fellow Singaporeans. Stay vigilant, stay united. We'll survive the crisis. Love from New Zealand.
This song makes me more motivated to perform my job well...I teared when I listen to this song during my shift break today. To all healthcare workers, we can do this.

For this is where, I know I'm home. It brought me to tears, no matter where you are, my fellow sporeans stay safe and we will overcome this as a nation, Stronger! SGunited!
I am from Kosovo🇽🇰, I visited Singapore🇸🇬 in 2019 and i felt like in my home. Beautiful city, so clean, so green and so peaceful, delicious food and hospitality people.
Thank You. Come again.
One of my best friend is from Bosnia, (she is ethnic Serbian) and after I projyect I made for my class about Singapore, she was overwhelmed and wanted to live in a place like the tiny red dot. I hope one day the Blakans will be more like Singapore, specially Kosovo and Bosnia. People from different ethnic background living together in armony for the well of their country.
The Balkans has much to learn about Singapore.
Thank u so much for the good talking about Singapore 🇸🇬
Thank you, my fellow Singaporeans all around the world! Thanks for standing behind us in such times, let's continue to stay united and overcome this together as a nation!

Kudos to Dick Lee and his team and also to the 900 strong Singaporeans in various part of the world! Brought tears to me, be strong Singapore, we get through it together! Love from Shanghai!
I suggest playing this on TV together with "The Light". This is the song that Singaporeans grew up with, and represents everything Singaporean to us. This is our battle cry, the song that all Singaporeans rally around. There'll always be Singapore.
Still the best national day song after all these years. I must have listened to Home hundreds of times over the years but idk why this one brought tears to my eyes. Thank you all for making this
Totally agree with you especially on the tearing part..
Thank you for this moving video. Brings tears to my eyes! Stay home, stay healthy! Majulah Singapura!!!
Listening to this song makes me miss my home Singapore . Was posted to work in Kuala Lumpur and now I’m not able to go back. Last visit, was in Feb Chinese New Year. Kuala Lumpur and singapore is so near yet seems so far ..
JUST QUIT YOUR JOB RETIRE IT TO GO BACK TO SINGAPORE
Poor thing. You will be back soon. Stay strong.
After covid-19 plz come back to Singapore🇸🇬
Stay strong all my fellow Singaporean brothers and sisters! We will get through this crisis together!

Really great. I love to support your group. Regards from California
Well I sang and I am PROUD to call Singapore HOME
Home where the heart is.
I tot I will get through another rendition of Home normally. And then I actually teared during the second verse at 1:44 when the healthcare heroes showed up and the lyrics went "When there are troubles to go through
...We'll find a way to start anew..." Never has the lyrics which we sang for 22 years meant this much to us. Thank you Singapore!
Love come from the sense of belonging. Congrad with Singapore. I always remember a good time there. I am tear down that the current situation in Thailand make me not feel as 'home' anymore.
Brought a tear to my eyes:’)
No other country has seen the transformation of singapore,heartwarming to know all of us may be miles apart but one song Composed by Dick Lee two years before the change of the mellenium would have such a overpowering tune to unit us all
I´m glad to be a part of this, for I will always be Home no matter where I am...
yeah me too. :)
