The music video for Nam Singapore, which the singer-songwriter spent S$7,000 of her own money to produce, has garnered more than 371,000 views on YouTube within a week of its release.

Singer and musician Suthasini Rajenderan always wanted to write a song for Singapore. And this year, the 32-year-old Vasantham Star 2011 winner has finally achieved it.

She wrote the tune and lyrics of Nam Singapore back in 2020, she revealed, but because the song was about celebration, “it did not fit the situation we were all facing” as the pandemic fight was still being waged. The song is partly self-funded and produced in partnership with the Tamil Language Council and Mediacorp, Suthasini told CNA Lifestyle. Nam Singapore was launched on Jul 29 by Vasantham and Oli 96.8FM.

“I featured a nurse, a teacher, a bus captain and a police officer, to represent some of our frontliners. For the past two years, they worked tirelessly to help keep things in order,” Suthasini said. “As for the athletes, I featured them to honour their achievements and contributions in representing our nation.”
