Lyrics:
I hear the sound of the yehu
I hear the strum of the oud
The beating heart of the percussion
How great they are
How loud we can be
When we sing together
How full are we
When we eat together
How strong are we
When we lift together
How great we are
How great we are
How fast we can be
When we run together
How high we can jump
When we jump together
How much fun we can be
When we play together
How great we are
How great we are
(Ooooh)
OK, so, just as this song says, I believe that we just simply sound better when we sing together.
So, what I'd like to do is I would like to teach you this song and see if I can get you to sing along with me. Yeah?
So I sing: "How loud we can be"
And you sing "When we sing together'
It's pretty simple. When we put it together...
How loud we can be
When we sing together
How loud we can be
When we sing together
Amazing. That was incredible. OK - do you think we should sing it all together? (Yeah!)
Yeah, come on. Everyone in together.
1, 2, 1 - 2 - 3 - 4!
How loud we can be
When we sing together
How loud we can be
When we sing together...
