Abstract
Singapore GaGa is a documentary charting the quirkiness of the Singaporean aural landscape, presenting music and sounds that are forgotten or ignored. It consists of vignettes by a variety of people, including buskers, dialect newsreaders, harmonica players and the lady who voices the pre-recorded train announcements. While seemingly unrelated, these musical and spoken performances cumulatively provide audiences with a sense of life and history in Singapore.
