Hear65's music video guide (May 2026) — Regina Song, SHIGGA SHAY, Mary Sue, Shye & Shohini

When it comes to music, music videos are important supplements to what we can hear as they stimulate our visual senses in a way that sound cannot.

From creative homemade projects to cinematic works that beg to be seen on a big screen, all forms of music videos are released by Singapore's talented musicians seeking to extend the stories told in their songs every month. In this monthly series, we will be rounding up the latest releases from our sunny island that might fly under the radar.

Regina Song - 'Your Charm'

Five years in the making, Regina Song's latest bop was written about the thrill of unexpected attraction. Accompanied by this wonderful music video directed by Gareth Christopher, 'Your Charm' is one of her most playful and uplifting offerings yet, capturing both the giddy rush of a crush and a deeper celebration of individuality. "Honestly, this song means so much more to me than what it meant five years ago. Cause it feels like I let a part of my whimsical self come back. I’m finally getting back into my element," the singer-songwriter shared.

SHIGGA SHAY 西阁 ft. pH-1 & JP THE WAVY - 'OK CAN'

Built around a hypnotic saxophone loop and powered by multilingual bars, SHIGGA SHAY’s new single ‘OK CAN’ sees the Singapore rapper link up with Korean hip-hop heavyweight pH-1 and Japanese trailblazer JP THE WAVY for a cross-cultural anthem that feels both effortless and electric. Blending English, Singlish, Mandarin, Malay, Tamil, Korean, Japanese, Thai, and French into one seamless exchange, the track transforms a familiar local phrase into a celebration of identity, rhythm, and connection across Asia’s hip-hop scene. Produced by longtime collaborator superjdoug, ‘OK CAN’ continues SHIGGA SHAY’s mission of bringing hometown stories to a global audience through bold, genre-bending sound.

Mary Sue - 'U Wish!'

Lifted from his upcoming album Rapihaler, out 19 June, ‘U Wish!’ sees Mary Sue keeping things stripped back and unfussy, letting the bars do the heavy lifting over a captivatingly smooth beat. Filmed at Malaysia’s The Spaceship, the no-frills visual captures the rapper casually performing in the studio, with simple lyric captions foregrounding reflections on trust, ambition, love, and inner conflict. It is intimate without trying too hard — less glossy music video, more late-night session energy, giving the track’s rhythm and thoughtful writing room to breathe.

Mary Sue - 'WALAO!'

We have Mary Sue yet again, this teaming up with Kuala Lumpur rapped Dametrill. Known for using a blend of Malay, Cantonese, English and Mandarin in his delivery, the mulilingual emcee joins forces with Mary Sue for a captivating track entitled 'WALAO!'. (For those unfamilar "walao” is a Singlish/Malaysian English exclamation with Hokkien roots, used when you’re surprised, annoyed, impressed, frustrated, or reacting strongly to something.) Produced by Atlanta-based underground experimental hip-hop artist feardorian, the song's surge-adjacent beat is a strangely a breezy complement to Mary Sue and Dametrill's Malay Peninsula slang.

Shye - 'In The End'

Serving as the emotional and melancholic centrepiece of Shye’s sophomore album The Doves Came Home, ‘In The End’ drifts through shimmering dream-pop textures and towering shoegaze-inspired distortion with a quiet sense of acceptance. Drawing sonic inspiration from Cocteau Twins, Ride, and The Smashing Pumpkins, the track captures the fragile moment of realising that letting go is not a defeat, but a necessary step toward finding your way back to yourself. Anchored by Shye’s airy vocals and introspective songwriting, ‘In The End’ reflects the album’s lingering tension between softness and overwhelm, clarity and uncertainty — ultimately embracing the peace that comes with surrendering to the unknown.

Shye - 'If Today Was Yesterday'

Shye continues to unveil the emotional world of The Doves Came Home with ‘If Today Was Yesterday’, a warm and wistful track about revisiting past versions of yourself with compassion instead of regret. Inspired by visions of sunflower fields and the quiet comfort of nature, the song pairs gentle reflection with hope, capturing the desire to “meet yourself halfway” and say the things you once needed to hear. Accompanied by a dreamy self-directed video, the track stands out as one of the brighter moments on the album, with the sunflower emerging as a symbol of resilience, forgiveness, and always turning toward the light. ‘If Today Was Yesterday’ feels like a comforting reminder to hold your younger self a little softer through life’s colder seasons.

Shye - 'Someone, Always'

‘Someone, Always’ is a tender and introspective offering that captures the quiet persistence of love and memory. Also lifted from her sophomore album The Doves Came Home, the track leans into soft, looping thoughts of someone who never quite leaves your mind — “inside your head all the time, everyday” — even in absence. Written, produced, and visualised entirely by Shye, with its accompanying video shot in Manila, the song unfolds like a late-night confession, tracing the spaces between longing and hesitation. Anchored by its recurring question — what is left to say? — ‘Someone, Always’ feels like a gentle push to voice the feelings we often leave unspoken, making it a poignant love letter to the people we carry with us, always.

Shohini - 'here for you'

Shohini leans into uncomfortable honesty on her new single ‘here for you’, a heartfelt pop track about the struggle of trusting others and allowing yourself to be vulnerable. Written from a deeply personal place, the song explores avoidant tendencies, emotional walls, and the fear of burdening the people around you — all wrapped in an upbeat, playful energy that keeps things light without losing emotional weight. Through candid lyricism and warm, feel-good production, Shohini hopes ‘here for you’ can offer listeners a sense of comfort, connection, and reassurance that they don’t have to carry everything alone.
