Playlist March 23 - 30

This week's playlist features some classic selections from artists who will be performing in Dubai over the next few weeks..
  1. Fairuz (March 30) - مش قصة هاي: Fairuz in "dissing" mode. I love the جلسة mood of this song.
  2. Jamiroquai (April 13) - 7 Days in Sunny June: Yes I recommended it last summer, but damn it's so good.
  3. Robbie Williams (April 21) - Kids: Robbie & Kylie, a match made in pop-trash heaven!
  4. Jennifer Lopez (April 27) - Waiting for Tonight: Never liked her songs much, and this is the least offensive of her hits.

Meanwhile in Kuwait.... all hell broke loose over a PRIVATE party last weekend that featured Ragheb Alameh, Majda Al-Roumi (yawn!), and drag comedian Bassem Fghali, with lots of (gasp!) alcohol and (shock! horror!) dancing. On Monday, the indignant Al-Watan huffed its disapproval like an old spinster aunt in a mean-spirited article, describing the event as حــفــل مــاجــن and calling for "heads to roll" at the Ministry of Interior for allowing such degenerate behavior to tarnish our otherwise pure and innocent country.

They didn't post the article on their website, no doubt aware that bloggers would have a field day with it, both for and against, and I strongly urge the artists to sue Al-Watan for publishing their pictures with that offensive article!!

  2. حفلة خاصة...و ناس مستانسين. و هذا طبعا لا يعجب جماعة (يعجبني حياؤك) و ياريت الفنانين و اهل الحفلة يرفعوا قضية على الوطن كونهم كتبوا (حفل ماجن).

  5. "heads to roll" in MOI??

    Wouldn't that in itself constitute a violation by Al-Watan of the new media law??

    Looks like head to roll at alwatan for being "irrisponsibly inticing chaos and ill-will regarding an official government agency" in this article.

    :P

  7. Zaydoun,

    I think the ones who told the MOI about it, were the ladies of
    لجنة ساعد اخاك المسلم - جزاهن الله خيرا
    because they had their annual event in Sheraton.

    and no "yawn" for Majda :p

    Majda is sama3i سماعي not private party material, therefore a yawn is inevitable

    ;-)

    you are a real stinker. An enemy of the society. Go to tora bora, you fit in well there. They love you there.

    I'm boycotting you and anyone who stands for you.

  17. Private parties in Kuwait can only get hipper for two reasons:
    1) Jacko ( the ambiguous child admirer and entertainer)has moved in next door.
    2) the no frills Kuwaiti carrier allows him to fly in to Kuwait daily, if he has to using his milk money.
    No wonder private parties in Kuwait are the next big thing after the discovery of Burgan oil field.
