"Do Good For You & Me!"
In November 2011, I was asked to entertain a special guest in a private party. I thought of writing an original song with an upbeat rhythm, a message likable by all and everyone could at least sing a bit.
I got both the melody and lyrics of "Do Good For You and Me" within four hours. I simply wrote from my heart. When I performed the song at the party weeks later, it was very well received as participants could sing along in Mandarin, Cantonese or English.
Later, when I went hiking with friends, we sang the song acapella with great fun. In another private party, I was very happy that music friends would play and sing the song along with me. Encouraged, I subsequently performed the song in other functions, including one at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center.
Even so, I have not publicly released the song until February 19, 2017. This 2017 version ends in a high note, a composing technique that I have learned from a distinguished music professor. This improved simple song should be a good prelude to get people sing!
