Miss Ghesquiere sent me a link to this video 5 days ago of a teacher in one of the local schools singing the Bird song but I didn’t find it funny until I watched the latest Family Guy episode below. Pretty cool teacher.

I wanna dance in Beirut
A friend of mine helped produce this music video and I thought I would share it with everyone. Its actually pretty good. [YouTube]
First they danced to Thriller, then they danced to MC Hammer and now the prisoners are back doing the Macarena. Isn’t dancing to the Macarena counted as a form of torture? [YouTube]
New radio station, Mix FM
Just found out from q8loco’s blog that there is a new radio station launching in Kuwait called Mix FM 98.4. No one get their hopes up though its an Arabic station so BBC and VOA News are still our only other options over 99.7 for now. [Link]
Some guy was bored so he took a bunch of Bert & Ernie clips and edited them so they look like they are gagsta rapping. [YouTube]
Matt Harding became famous by accident awhile back when a video of him dancing in front of landmarks in different countries became an overnight success. Now Matt is back with a new video thats been in the making for over a year. This time around he visited and danced in 42 different countries and one them was Kuwait. Its a really cool video thats sure to give you goosebumps. [YouTube]
Thanks Shab!
Update: Here is a link to Matt’s journal when he was in Kuwait. I honestly thought he was a nice guy but after reading his journal I now think he’s a jerk. Watching the video above you get a feeling of world unity and peace but then when you find out the kind of person Matt really is it suddenly makes sense why the world is at war. [Link]
Massari in Marina Mall
This video was shot when Massari visited Marina Mall. Its crazy, I wouldn’t be surprised if some people got hurt or trampled. [YouTube]
Madonna: Hard Candy
I just downloaded (bought) the new Madonna album from the Amazon MP3 Store; and its probably one of her better albums since Ray of Light in 98. Initially, I was going to write a long winded review talking about each track, then I realized that Vocals=Madonna and Production=Timbaland, Pharrel and Kanye West.
Yeah .. that pretty much sums it up.
She is also going to be stopping by Dubai on Nov.21st for the Hard Candy tour (good luck getting tickets).

(Is it just me or does the album cover match the blog a little too much.)
Its official, NKOTB are back
New Kids on the Block have officially reunited and they’re coming out with a new album this summer. Hopefully someone will come out with a FireFox extension that will block all NKOTB content!
Oh my God, this has to be the scariest thing I have found on YouTube. There is actually a Britney Spears fan club in Kuwait and they’ve put together this tribute video for Britney! This is whats posted about the video on YouTube:
Kuwait Britney fans speak out for the first time showing love and support to a legend.
Yes we do support Britney. If you don’t like it then deal with it! Hate comments will be deleted. Please be respectful.
Hope you enjoy it. Thanks.
What is the world coming to? [YouTube]
NIN Ghosts I – IV
The new Nine Inch Nails album is out and available to purchase and download on their site. You can download the full album for $5, order their double CD version for $10 and even download some songs for free if you just want to try it out. Personally I want to order the $75 pack (even considering the $300 one) but since it’s an instrumental I want to hear it first before I put down my money. Thats why I am currently downloading the free songs first. [Link]
Thanks Cajie
Update: Good think I didn’t pay $75, the album sucks without vocals. Don’t think will even pay $5 for it.
Last July I posted a video of 1500 Filipino prisoners dancing to Thriller. Well they’re back again and this time they’re dancing to MC Hammer. What kind of prison is this?? [YouTube]
National Day Music Videos
Since its Kuwait’s National Day next week I decided to post some of my favorite songs I used to hear when I was a kid. They are all available on YouTube and you can check them out below. By the way is it just me or does Kuwait in general seem less decorated than the previous years? Usually the majority of the buildings in Kuwait City would be covered with lights and flags but other then the KTV building nothing has grabbed my attention this year. Strange…
عيدي يا بلاد
امبارك عليك العيد يا بلاد
كاسروه دله
كلما زادت المحن
كويت والعرب
New Kids on the Block reuniting!
First the Spice Girls and now this. According to People magazine NKOTB are going to make a comeback 15 years after they split up. I guess Take That is next. [Link]
