One world in a song
Date:21/01/2010
The theme song for volunteers of the 2010 World Expo titled "World" was released yesterday, representing universal wishes for world peace and harmony.
With the lyrics "One hug, one world" and "One smile, one world," the song conveys the message of love.
The organizer is now searching for gestures representing "hug and smile", which are the key words in the lyrics. A comic version of the song is also being sought.
The song is performed by singer, Tan Jing, who was born to a family of musical background in Houma City, Shanxi Province. Tan has been appointed as the Expo 2010 volunteer ambassador.
"The song belongs to everybody, not only to volunteers," Tan said.
The song has been uploaded to the online music platform of China Mobile.
More than 610,000 people, including 3,001 foreigners, have signed up to be volunteers at the 2010 World Expo. A total of 70,943 people have been recruited to work inside the Expo site.
