The Blast-Off Song / The Countdown Song

At this very moment, The Husband is lying down on the bed serenading me with worship songs and Sunday School tunes. (No, he's not the lovey-dovey mashimaro kind. Haha.) Out of the blue, he asks me what my favourite Sunday School song was so I told him it was, "Neh... that outerspace song ah..."


Well, "that outerspace song" as I remember it to be, actually has a name. In fact, it has two! It's officially called The Blast-Off Song but is also known as The Countdown Song to many. And it's freaking cute. =) (It's got actions, too. =p)

Well, this isn't exactly like the version The Husband and I used to sing

in Sunday School but it's the closest one I could find on YouTube.

Artist: Unknown
Song Title: The Blast-Off Song / The Countdown Song

[VERSE 1]
Somewhere in outerspace, God has prepared a place
For those who trust Him and obey
Jesus will come again, although we don't know when
Countdown's getting lower every day

[CHORUS]
10 and 9, 8 and 7, 6 and 5 and 4
Call upon the Saviour while you may
3 and 2, coming through the clouds in bright array
Countdown's getting lower every day
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... BLAST-OFF!!!

That's the c-o-r-r-e-c-t version. But when

The Husband sang the Chorus, he went:

[CHORUS – The Husband's Version]
10 and 9, 6 and 7, 8 and 5 and 4
Call upon the Saviour while you may
3 and 2, coming through the clouds in bright array
Countdown's getting lower every day

OMG, he got older and forgot how to count. @_@

Oh, and now, while I'm here blogging,

he's sitting behind me singing himself
a birthday song. HAHA. Too cute.

UPDATE AT 10:25PM ON 10 FEBRUARY 2012: The Husband is in the bathroom taking his shower and I can still hear him singing Happy Birthday to himself. HAHAHAHA. Who did I marry?! Hahahaha.
