We will survive is my answer to how we can survive in this uncertain world and how we can overcome future challenges. The song was composed before I participated in a song-writing competition in 2020 during the circuit breaker, organised by Straits Times. The competition is known as 'In This Together' Singalong Challenge online. Here's the link to the competition https://www.straitstimes.com/lifestyle/entertainment/compose-sing-and-you-may-win-1000
Like I said, during the stay home period my music creativity flourished like never before. Music is answer I guess. I have already written the song illusion. We will survive is supposed to be titled "Together we will survive" and somehow the song evolved into the final version "We will Survive".
If you are curious how the original version sound like it will be emailed to those who are getting my new music upon request.
This song captures the mood of the pandemic, I could vividly picture the days of bewilderment of the sudden outbreak of pandemic. It is a period of deep reflection and my thoughts often pondered upon how we need to change our lives and rethink about what is really important. Back in 2015, I feared a crisis and that it might be the only way that could drastically change our mindset and attitude about the climate change. The invisible hands in a way has forced everyone to rethink what is the best way to live our lives. One year has passed by especially quickly, the time seems to be ticking and I still believe there will always be hope if we stay strong together. We just need to find that silver lining in the darkness.

Find out my answer to how we can survive in this uncertainty and how we can overcome the future challenges. The single will include a bonus instrumental track and a complimentary songwriting workshop to get you started on your own song writing journey. Something which I find it extremely uplifting and fulfilling. Email: sunrainearthsre@gmail.com for details.
Get the new single directly from the artist! Because I believe that independent artist's creative hard work deserves more. Utterly disappointed with the idea of capitalism and its unfairness and exploitative aspects and how music creators are taken for granted. I wish there is utopianism. It's tough times like this that we need music more than ever to lift our spirits and keep us going ...
