Jadyn: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back aboard MGairlines. Flight entertainment Totum Mundi will resume immediately.

Introduce Pop music, Hey Phoebe, we are so lucky to be the first badge of MEP students to have Pop and Jazz included in our syllabus. Do you know that in MEP, we don't just study the music of White Men, but more recent artists such as The Beatles, Alicia Keys...? Etc etc In MEP, we also get to perform pop music...

Phoebe : That's right! Speaking of pop music, we have Yuri, Jasmine and Rae playing Fast Car by Tracy Chapman. This song was popularised by Jonas Blue in 2015 but it was originally written written in 1988 by Tracy Chapman.

Jadyn: That's right! Let's welcome Yuri, Jasmine, and Rae unto the stage!

Phoebe: Wow, that was a really cool piece! And I need some more of these Pop Music! Next up, we have Alex and Jadyn playing Kiss me, a piece written by Sixpence None The Richer. "Kiss Me" is a song released as a single in August 1998, by an American pop rock band Sixpence None the Richer. It is also part of the official soundtrack of the movie "She's All That". To add some fun, they will be performing with a live loop station and instruments. Now, let's invite Alex and Jadyn to come up and present to us their piece!
