The Singapore Southeast Asian Games Organising Committee (Singsoc) launched the official games music album, Song of the Games, on Tuesday afternoon at Shaw Theatre, Lido.

The album contains tracks from local acts Dick Lee, Daphne Khoo, The Sam Willows, and Tabitha Nauser, and is produced by Sydney Tan, the Singsoc executive committee's music director.

Song of the Games features 14 tunes, including three official theme songs of the biennial meet, which will be held on home soil from June 5-16.

A portion of the proceeds from iTunes sales will go towards the SportCares Foundation, the philantrophic arm of national sports agency SportSG.

Three videos featuring Singapore athletes will also be released on the Games Facebook page in conjunction with the album launch.
