"People often complain about things outside the mirror but can't face their own reflection".. "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win"...Gandhi At least Tahir Shah has a courage!!!

I am not impressed with Taher Shah's song. But full marks to him for the fame he got world wide because that's what it's all about in the end. Perhaps Taher Shah should borrow a line from Clark Gable and say to his critics: "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn!"

Taher Shah's next song will probably be about his neighbour's goat - Goat Goat .. Goat of my neighbour..

I have no idea what to make of it. Only thing i can think of is that perceptions play the most important role in acceptance. The same nonsense lyrics coming from a star like Ali Zafar would be accepted but a Tahir Shah would be ridiculed for bad angrezi and bizzarre dressing.

What is with this " Ann Gel" pronunciation business? Does no one know the proper way to enunciate the word?

Ali is the true rock star, after listening him , I kind of liked the lyrics and started thinking how our prospect can be changed by someone so easily.
