Christmas Songs Made In Singapore: Naomi, Thunderbirds, Quests, Stylers
This posting has been rejuvenated. Merry Christmas 2023
to all friends, readers and contributing writers.
Christmas In Style with the Stylers
one of their best albums for the holidays.
Spend Christmas In Singapore By Listening To Christmas Songs, Singapore Style, 2021.
Christmas has always been an international holiday, with millions of people celebrating it. Songs about Christmas too can come by the hundreds of thousands and the vinyl records produced, since the time such companies were set up, could come into millions.
Singapore produced some of these records and the bands involved included, the Stylers, Quests, Naomi and the Boys, Thunderbirds, Travellers and, as the years marched on, many many more.
I am glad to note that friend Kevin Mathews has a song in a specially made album about nine years ago, for the Rare Disorder Society entitled, Christmas Dream... with other local artistes on the list too.
Two videos below with the popular group, Sam Willows singing, I'm Gonna Be Loved This Christmas and good friend Albert Louis with Merry Christmas Singapore, a cheerfully recorded one with his group, Culture Vulture.
At this juncture and with Covid-19 still spreading, we need that Christmas dream - that the unpleasantries will end soonest.

A Merry Christmas to all.

Anastasia WS All-star contributor There was an awesome local group called Hosanna Music Ministry (Risen Christ Church). I had their cassette tape of Christmas songs. It was so nice. But I lost the tape and even the band members don't have it anymore I think. What a shame.

Rising contributor Anastasia WS, there are some shops selling them since Sungei Road has closed down [my favourite haunt for cassettes, vinyl too]. Would be a lovely present for yourself. Good luck. Thanks for visiting Anastasia...
