Batch Song and a bit on OGA Day

Posted on 09. May, 2009 by ninie@linie in Reminiscing

Just got back from OGA Day. It was tiring like hell, but well worth it. I guess if there was ever an award for the noisiest batch today, we could’ve easily won – thanks to aliza and fizzy :P.

Anyway, I’m not a good story teller. So I’ll let someone else do that part – on the mishaps and encounters with the funniest things, not to mention the most tiring ever treasure hunt exercise (as Aliza said, nak patah pinggang dah 10 tahun tak jogging).

Just thought I should share with you the batch song’s lyrics (even I had a hard time remembering them – had to call up Fozz for a refresher :)). I was also thinking if we could get someone to mix the song in the computer, and call in the original singers for recording someday. I heard if you have a minus one CD, it’s not very expensive to record in a proper amateur studio (voice only).

So I’m suggesting that we get the song recorded on CD. Kalau tak mahal sangat, some of us can pay up front and recoup the costs later when the CDs are sold to everyone. Profits made could be used to fund the 10th year gathering next year. Amacam? OK kah?

Once recorded, I won’t have to fret about forgetting the lyrics/tune anymore (semalam dah test sebab ada request nak main during OGA day, ada lupa2 jugaklah).

Anyway, here goes the lyrics for those yang dah lupa tu (feel free to shoot me if I got any of the lines wrong):

Through the Years

 

The miles passed more swiftly
Taken in a joyous stride
The whole world seems brighter
When friends walk by your side

 

Friends are like a breeze

Chasing dark clouds away

Friends bring special moments

That will never fade away

 

You’ve been with me through the sunshine and rain (ooh)

Always knew I can count on you and friendship remains

 

Chorus:

All through the years we have been together

We have learnt to love each other

We can withstand

The obstacles at hand

 

And for the years we are to go through

Though far apart still locked in my heart

Memories stay

Yes forever that way

 

Friends are like a fort

So precious it is worth

Protect us from enemies

Never get us hurt

 

Friends are like a rainbow

That adorn the sky

Bring us the colours of love

Everyday that passes by

 

You’ve been with me through the joy and the pain (ooh)

Always knew I can count on you and friendship remains

 

[repeat chorus]

 

Bridge:

With everyday that passes by

Our bond is strengthened all the while

And for years that we have shared

We know that happiness is in our hands at last (ooh panjang :P)

 

[repeat chorus]

 

Yes forever that way, Yes my friend.

Alright, have fun peeps, let me know what you guys think about the recording idea.
