Re: Indian Idol
Kyon Bhai...
I haven't followed Indian Idol on TV at all...but I just listened to some songs sung by Prashant Tamang in Indian Idol on YouTube and he seems to be a fantastic singer.
Plus he is from Darjeeling, the place where I spent 10 years of my life.
Having lived with many Nepalese in Darjeeling, it amazes me that Prashant has absolutely no accent when he sings.
you should listen to songs from other singers of Indian Idol and Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. You will realise that Prashant is a very mediocre orchestra singer. There were atleast 4-5 guys better than him in Indian Idot itself. This public voting is very stupid thing. We indian have made a mess out of this privilage in our political system by voting on caste, region and relegion lines. Same thing is happening in these singing competitions, we vote on regional bias and other biases and then bad singers win. Like we have DP Yadav in Parliament, we have Prashant as Indian Idol.
