Many Singaporeans go overseas, do whatever they needed to and come home serving the country in so many ways, either directly or indirectly.<br /><br />The term, "Singapore born child" is all important and Joseph Schooling deserves the credit for bringing glory to our Little Red Dot as a citizen.<br /><br />Thanks again FL for giving this posting a thumbs up with your positive comments and feedback. It takes time to write and I always appreciate the trouble you take.

How could "some people" said negative comment about Joseph. We have many Singaporeans studied and obtained their degrees overseas and came back to work. Joseph is a Singapore born child. Agree with SGT, that the comment is certainly not true.FLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429286415685838183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-75453864269896416742016-08-19T15:59:04.248+08:002016-08-19T15:59:04.248+08:00Thank you SGT for comment.

It is a remake by someone else. The original version is on YouTube. It is a 2:42 version. This is not the original drums, the beginning is not original and the guitars are not the same. Someone who is not a musician, from that era, nor has a keen ear for instrumentals would catch the differences. I knew right from the start that this was a studio group or some group other than the original musicians. This is a cover of the original, but is not the original version. It's a B grade rendition of Wipe Out not the A grade original. I prefer the original.ARTCM7noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-62701042689021170312016-08-16T22:53:07.911+08:002016-08-16T22:53:07.911+08:00The Song does not go with the dancers...that's...The Song does not go with the dancers...that's NOT the swim<br />BRO1945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-76586371185543695862016-08-16T22:51:15.156+08:002016-08-16T22:51:15.156+08:00Goes with the song perfect!

Don't get me wrong: I respect and applaud what JS accomplished. Just disgusted over the way our authorities went about it.<br /><br />Pre-Gold Medal win, all very low. No hoo ha. The coaches and company did not even spot the potential this amazing boy had. Did not think he would qualify let alone win.<br /><br />After the win, all jumping on the band wagon. Typical, my honest opinion.

Girls would like to have him, guys would like to be him and every parent's dream to have such a son! Lets wish Joseph every success for years to come!<br /><br />Olympics swimming champs always remind me of one person, the late Johnny Weissmuller, who died in 1984. J.W. was selected by Associated Press as the greatest swimmer of the 1st half of the 20th Century! He was the first man to swim the 100 meter freestyle under one minute. After his retirement from competitive swimming, he entered into a contract, in 1932, with MGM to play the Edgar Rice Burroughs character, Tarzan The Apeman! He was to become the screen's most definitive Tarzan! Even up to today, his Tarzan victory yell is the most recognizable!<br /><br />I am just wondering if the world is ready for a Eurasian Tarzan! Who knows?<br /><br />Keep the stories coming Andy! <br /><br />Cheers!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00627468033353477649noreply@blogger.com
