BackgroundFollowing Matthew Tan's move to Nashville, Tennessee in 1975, he composed "Singapore Cowboy" there. He returned to Singapore in 1977.[1] Now home, Tan recorded the song.[2] Years later, in 2004, Tan received an Asia-Pacific Lifetime Achievement Award at the Canberra Country Blues & Roots Festival for the song which had sold in excess of 30,000 copies.[3] The song is included on the various artists compilation Recollecting Singapore 60's which was released on EMI.
