THAI FUNK
Soundtrack: Love Hot (I Feel Good Cover) - Meesak Nakaratch - Thai Funk ZudRangMa
Someone once asked if I'd rather be blind or deaf. I didn't even need a second to answer, my definite answer is I'd rather be blind.
Maybe it is something music lovers have in common but I'll be happy living in my own imagination with melodies in my ears.
There goes my romantic bs again...
Thai funk or country music has many different genre and sub genre but the 2 main ones are 'Look Tung' and 'Mor Lam'.
The singing style is very hard to master. It is a part of a culture that perhaps if you are not from it, you will not sound authentic.
I had the pleasure of seeing DAO BAN DON live. It was actually the persona and stage presence he gave out that I was captivated with. Obviously, he is a legend.
Camera in hand and trying to take shots, I lived my fantasy of being the band's (un)official photographer. Except that it's a country music gig than the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
Must admit I was not totally familiar with his music but I was surrounded by hardcore fans and the atmosphere was so fun.
I was totally impressed with his attire. Cowboy buckle and hat with paisley dinner jacket and indigo denim. Decorated with a large diamond encrusted gold Rolex, what else right?!
A night to remember. I can cross off: Thai country singer legend off of my list of who to see before I die, or before they die rather.
Who's on your list?
