Great job and how nice to hear Thais singing real music. I do grow so tired of song after song of slow sappy love gone bad.

Not particularly wholesome, and is another example of the   negative influence of the west.  Encouraging this sort of thing can only lead to the evils yaba, internet gaming addiction, and inappropriate lifestyle choices etc.

The popular and beloved  Prime Minister of Thailand, as reported by Thailand's media, has emphasized the need for Thailand's youth to  exercise  clean living and discipline.  Here are some examples to follow;

Perhaps to a 50+ year old man with his own view of things. However, to kids their age, not awesome. The sad reality is that they went through puberty, cracked their voices, got pimples and teeth braces etc., and haven't been doing very much. Thailand's teenagers prefer Rap, K-Pop, T-Pop, and J-Pop.

The takeaway is that these kid music groups can leave a  sad legacy because kids are not allowed to be kids. Big difference between  the garage band type of playing of kids, focused on fun and camaraderie ala Dave Grohl, and this sort of adult designed & manufactured product.

It is an interesting one. Play a song that maybe reminds many of us of back home and we think is amazing. But if we were all still living back home and the same group performed on one of those talent shows we would probably be saying things like 'tiger parents', Asians push their children too hard etc etc. 

Looks pretty safe to say it is a school organised band...hopefully it isn't the standard Thai school band. That is, not worry about going to any classes for a couple months and just play this song over and over again until it is remembered. Once remembered, the teachers force them to remember what they think are the appropriate dance movements for the genre. Just to please a person in a slightly higher position for all of 45 seconds until he moves on to the next station of drilled students. 

Hopefully it is not the case in this particular situation. But you have to wonder...
