بكتب اسمك يا حبيبي – فيروز Bektob esmak ya habibi – Fairouz

February 21st, 2012

Fairuz – I’m Writing Your Name I’m writing your name my darling On the old poplar You’re writing my name my darling In the sand on the path And tomorrow it will rain On the wounded stories Your name will remain my darling And my name will be erased I talk about you my darling To my the people in the neighborhood You talk about me my darling To a spring of water And when they burn the midnight oil Beneath the lamps of the evening They talk about you my darling And I am forgotten And you gave me a flower I showed it to my friends I put it in my book I planted it on my pillow I gave you a vase You didn’t take care of it And you weren’t concerned with it And so the gift went to waste And you tell me you love me You don’t know how much That you still love me.

Shit Skeptics Say (Part 1 of 3)

February 13th, 2012

Written by John Rael and Ross Blocher Directed By John Rael Cinematography by Karus Marshall-Walsch I usually do ‘crotch-kicking-comedy’, so why do I feel like I’ve sunk a level by doing a meme? Anyways, it was pretty fun to get together with a few fellow skeptics and point out all the ‘shit’ that we say. It’s a fun way to celebrate skepticism while takin’ the piss out of it. Also, there was SO MUCH material that I am currently editing two more editions of it (COMING SOON). Special Thanks goes out to Wendy Hughes and Jim Underdown of the IIG for lending me their cool toys (Power Balance bracelet, Placebo Band, Dowsing Rods, Ghost Detecting Meter) Hope you enjoy, John ps. Sorry about the lack of crotches getting kicked (those are also coming VERY soon) p-ps. When I say “Written by John Rael and Ross Blocher” I mean that I (John Rael) came up with the idea and wrote a dozen or so lines, and then Ross responded by writing two FULL fuckin’ pages worth!!! And he seems like such a nice guy :) NOTE: Music in the background ‘party’ scene is Tim Minchin Canvas bags Filmed with a Canon T3i

12 Saal – Bilal Saeed (20-12 Remix) – Dr. Zeus Feat. Shortie & Hannah Kumari

February 10th, 2012

iTunes Download Link: itunes.apple.com In the history of Music, thousands of people have turned themselves into stars with their talent and hard work. Some people have amazing vocals, some are good song writers. A few are great composers and very few of them are music producers. However, only some people have the gift of singing, writing, composing and also producing at the same time; Bilal Saeed is one of them. Born in Sialkot on 12 December 1988, he started singing, writing and composing songs when he was just at high school. The passion of music left his mind with only one option to do in life; ‘music’. After finishing his studies, he took the initiative and went to Islamabad to record his songs. In the meanwhile he availed the opportunity of writing and composing songs for upcoming singers as well as household Pakistani artists such as Amanat Ali, Huma Khawaja, Annie Khalid, Falak Shabir and many more. By the grace of God, he had some remarkable hits as lyricist and composer, not long after; fortune opened the doors for him to create his own recording studio known as Bee’s studio. Having his own studio gave him enough comfort to create music of his own. Bilal has signed to Envy Entertainment, who now proudly present his debut single ’12 Saal’.
