That Girl in Pinafore Page #3

---

Hey guys, check this out.

What a coincidence!

We've jammed all night.

Can we choose a song yet?

Honestly, these songs are not very hip.

People are listening to

Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Nirvana

and Guns N' Roses now.

If Guns N' Roses

and Nirvana played 'Xinyao'

(Singapore folk songs)

How do you think it will sound?

'Xinyao', Guns N' Roses style...

Jiaming, how about this?

Add this beat!

Sounds good!

Hurry, we're late!

Hey boss.

That's the guy who poked your eyes.

It's really crowded!

Let's register first.

Good morning, judges.

I'm Sam, from Malaysia.

I'll be singing "Lian Zhi

Qi" (Refuge of Love).

What tenderness does it take

to heal your wounds?

How long must I wait

before you will accept me?

Please encourage me

with the confidence in your eyes

So I may see the future

with better clarity

We live here in Singapore

A Japanese bomber own past here in 1941

My voice is very seductive.

Please restrain yourself.

Stand up for Singapore!

Do the best you can!

- Unintelligible-

Stand up! Stand up for Singapore!

That's enough!

Get off the stage!

Next group!

Are you contestant number 65?

Yes.

What will you be singing?

We're singing ""Beneath the Starry Night"

Do you guys have a group name?

Stars ...The SHINING Stars?

SHINEE? S-H-I-N-E-E?

What kind of a stupid name is that"!

Let's begin.

Beneath the starry night!

There is a faint glowing light

Just make sure I get into the finals.

A shooting star shoots across the sky

It stopped playing!

Sh*t!

Let's change our song.

But we've practiced this for so long!

This is too last minute!

A beautiful tomorrow requires our hard work

Good job. Now scram!

Next group!

You're May, right?

How do you know my name?

Well, your boyfriend did yell

it out many times that day.

He's not my boyfriend.

You're auditioning too?

Duh! Why else are we here"!

But what's the point?

Our cassette is broken.

What song were you going to sing?

'A Youthful Heart'.

'A Youthful Heart'?

Maybe we can help.

Hi, my name is Jiaming.

I am Xiaopang.

Hi, I am Caogen.

I am Haoban.

Of course I remember the pasty boy.

And I remember you.

You broke my discman.

The Zhang sisters.

It's Zhang Huimei (Asian singer)!

Zhang Shaohan (Asian singer)!

Can you guys really play?

Hello judges. We are contestant number 69.

We'll be singing 'A Youthful Heart'.

Hope you'll enjoy it

Didn't the boys just perform?

We're not singing.

Just providing accompaniment.

Whatever.

Let's not waste time.

You may begin.

Please encourage me

with the confidence in your eyes

So I may see tomorrow

with better clarity

Imbue me courage

with your love

Transform happiness and sadness

into melodies

And celebrate the emotions of every season

We can create miracles in ordinary lives

If only you would

follow in my footsteps

Raise your voices to lift your hopes

And y towards your dreams

Don't let the rain dampen your mood

Remove the unhappiness from your frown

March on forward

Hide your tears

Let the rainbow form a bridge

all the way to your dreams

To your dreams

We can create miracles in ordinary lives

If only you would

follow in my footsteps

Raise your voices to lift your hopes

And y towards your dreams

Don't let the rain dampen your mood

Remove the unhappiness from your frown

March on forward

Hide your tears

Let the rainbow form a bridge

all the way to your dreams

To your dreams

There are often heartaches in life

But I am determined to be strong

The windows to my heart are always open

to welcome new inspirations every day

We can create miracles in ordinary lives

If only you would

follow in my footsteps

Raise your voices to lift your hopes

And y towards your dreams

Don't let the rain dampen your mood

Remove the unhappiness from your frown

March on forward

Hide your tears

Let the rainbow form a bridge

all the way to your dreams

To your dreams

Not too bad.

Hey guys.

Thanks for your help.

We owe you one.

We can treat you all to a meal.

Just one meal?

We've saved your asses back there!

You think playing drums is easy?

It's difficult!

Yeah!

You owe us two meals.

So what do you expect?

Sacrificial offerings? Holy matrimony?

Oh that would be nice!

I knew you boys habor bad intentions!

All men are the same!

Hey don't make us out to be devils.

How about this"!

'Meng Chuan' is run by my family.

Perform there once

and we'll call it even.

It's your family business?

I don't trust that 'small white face'.

I heard that!

Okay, let me think about it.

We'll think about it!

- That's right!

So that's it?

Uncle Ezzam.

Xiaoping-

Thanks for coming.

Sorry I paged you at such short notice.

No problem at all.

Who's this"!

Sorry, I had to fetch my

daughter at the last minute too.

Please don't tell your

parents.Just this time.

No problem.

Good boy!

Handsome boy!

(In Chinese) When there's a

pretty girl, no problem at all.

Hi!

Hi.

(In Malay) Daddy, the fat

boy called me pretty.

Like father, like daughter.

What did you tell him?

(In Chinese) I told my dad

you called me 'pretty'

My daughter takes Chinese

as an 'A' level subject.

She speaks good Chinese eh?

(In Malay) This fatso's mother said that

not only is he fat

he's dumb too.

And he's even failing his Chinese subject.

Maybe you can tutor him?

For a price.

Stop it, Dad.

My dad says that your Chinese sucks.

If you need tuition, I can help you.

And I'll give you special pricing.

You give chinese tuition?

Dear folks and friends.

Please stick around.

There'll be more exciting performances!

Yeah!

Xiaopang really sucks at this.

Hey guys.

This is my tutor, Liyana.

Hi everyone!

(In Chinese) She's Malay.

(In Chinese) Wow, Xiaopang

When did you start learning Malay?

She's pretty!

Superb!

Thanks. I tutor him Chinese.

They're here.

There's nobody here.

Yea h, except for 3 old men.

Welcome!

Thanks for coming!

It's a bit empty today.

Let me show you to your seats!

You guys don't need introductions.

This is our Malay friend, Liyana.

It's her first time here.

Hi everyone, I speak Chinese.

You can speak Chinese?

That's so cool!

I am May. Nice to meet you.

Hi, I'm Jayley Woo

her younger sister.

And I am Hayley Woo

her elder sister.

Hang on...

Isn't your last name 'Zhang'?

Dumbass.

So you'd like us to perform here?

That's rig ht.

Any issues?

I've lost my patience with you two!

Expect a letter from my lawyers!

How long has this place been open?

About a year.

Is business always like this?

Sometimes it's not bad!

Yes, not bad at all!

Do you hang out here all day?

Yeah, I'm not schooling anymore.

We're not attending school this month too!

So we're really free.

Okay...

Enough talk.

Let's sing!

Come with me.

You know this song too.

I walk alone at dusk on this mountain trek

The glow in the skies

revealed my loneliness

I whispered a melancholic tune

With a tinge of sadness in my voice

The tune oats into my beating heart

I walk alone at dusk on this mountain trek
