Singapore – OneRepublic has released a behind-the-scenes video of their song ‘Singapore’ in collaboration with the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and music-based entertainment company Universal Music Singapore (UMS).
The video features One Republic’s lead singer Ryan Tedder and keyboardist Brian Willett exploring Singapore. It features locations such as Marina One, Peranakan Museum, Armenian Street, and the Old Hill Street Police Station.
OneRepublic’s video was filmed during the band’s visit to the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix.
“With this track specifically, it’s like an external portrayal of creativity,” Willet commented.
“The first time I heard Singapore fully mixed, I could see buildings shooting up from the ocean, the streets, the tapestry of creativity,” Tedder said.
Choo Huei Miin, executive director of brand at STB, commented, “The ‘Singapore’ track beautifully pays homage to our city’s essence – a harmonious blend of heritage and modernity. Inspired by the creativity and ingenuity of the track, we invite listeners worldwide to immerse in the journey that this track takes you through, in the vibrant and eclectic tapestry that Singapore offers.”
“Universal Music Singapore is proud to be part of such an inspirational collaboration about creativity and Singapore featuring one of the world’s biggest bands,” Alice Kent, country head for Universal Music Singapore, said.
