Festive Greetings

In conjuction with a few New Year celebrations of different cultures especially in the South and Southeast Asian countries, the Vaisakhi (Punjabi/Sikh), Puthandu (Tamil), Nepalise, Thai, Lao, Burmese & Cambodian New Years, not forgetting Easter Day celebrated by Christians last Sunday.

I'm going to show you a wonderful video clip performance (again?) from Britain's Got Talent (not again!) back in 2008.

Suleman Mirza & Madhu Singh, who formed a dance group called Signature thrilled the crowd with their Michael Jackson's infamous groin-covering-moonwalking plus a blend of Bhanggra style dance, which got them to the finals. http://signatureofficial.com/

Perfect for this festive season. Enjoy!

Michael Jackson's Billy Jean remixed by Punjabi MC
One of my favourite mixes.

Happy New Year!

Hey, thanx for the greetings, but its kind of rude to call it bangla dance. Banglas are Bangladeshis n the dance is of Punjabi origin. Punjab is the polar opposite of Bangladesh if u look a map of India. So i think u shud say Bhanggra instead...
Common mistake of Malaysians, even Perak ex-MB has done it before, ironically last year Vasakhi.
But honestly, you r very nice to wish them anyways, because other bloggers are ignorant to the festivities..it because punjabis/sikhs are minorities in malaysia, thats why ppl r ignorant bout them
n happy vasakhi to u too :)
