Singapore Idol Taufik Batisah made a mistake while singing the national anthem at the Singtel Singapore Grand Prix on  27 Sep 2009.

Instead of singing "Marilah kita bersatu", (Come, let us unite), he sang "Marilah kita berseru" (Come, let us proclaim).

According to a local news broadcaster, he apologised for his error and said that he was very nervous.

He also added there was no excuse for him to have made the error and hopes the public will forgive him.
