Can somebody tell me why Malaysia has an Olympic anthem? Also with a corny title like, “Olimpik di Beijing” - I was waiting to see the artists sing it with passion (eyes closed, singing their heart out) It’s not hosted in our country and it’s not like we’ve been that amazing at the Games. Maybe you can enlighten me.
Quite a host of Malaysian singers though I must say - Jaclyn Victor, Ning Baizura, Maya Karin and others… I’m not too in tune with the local music scene. EEP.
It’s quite a nice song but the production is TERRIBLE! It’s all muffled and none of the voices truly stand out… I’m not sure if it’s the quality of the video but it’s bad production in my opinion.
In the mean time, here’s the song:-
Bahasa Malaysia
Olimpik di Beijing
Setiap yang bertanding
Berkawan dan seiring
Menanti gemilang detik
Olimpik!Mendaki puncak cita
Dengan tekun usaha
Tak mudah berputus asaDi bumi indah ini
Bergemanya Olimpik
Kita berganding tangan
Mengeratkan perhubunganOlimpik di Beijing
Menyatukan kita
Langit indah Beijing yang terbentang
Menyambut mesra kedatanganWelcome to Beijing
Dengan hati yang terbuka
Untuk dunia
Yang aman dan sentosaMenanti cita-cita walaupun apa sekali halangan dia
Dari manapun kita
Tiada yang berbeza
Semuanya bersaudaraYang kalah dan yang menang
Jadikan pengalaman
Yang penting semangat juangDi bumi indah ini
Bergemanya Olimpik
Kita berganding tangan
Mengeratkan perhubunganWelcome to Beijing
Yang aman dan sentosaEnglish

And I agree, it’s bad production.
