    The most popular vocalist in Tamparuli is not Marsha AF3

    September 15th, 2008

    Even though Tamparuli has long been well known, if only for the song “Jambatan Tamparuli”, Marsha firmly re-established Tamparuli in the nation’s consciousness.

    But is she the most popular vocalist in Tamparuli?

    I don’t think so.

    I have been to a few wedding receptions which was also attended by “Chris”, who would invariably perform a song or three, and would get the best reception of all performers in the reception, guaranteed.

    Here’s a video of him performing the classic Bob Tutupoly song “Widuri”:

    Part 2 of the same song:

    The following video is of Chris performing the 60s pop yeh yeh classic “Naik Keretaku”. This has got to be one of the greatest videos I have ever taken. Chris looks like he cannot wait for the song to end because of the pesky short, drunk old man who’s become his biggest fan and dancing partner. Look out for the old man’s totally original dance moves, complete with robot walk and silat shuffle!!!

    P.S. Can you spot anybody in the videos that might need diet pills?

    Your question reminds me of my university students’ union president election many years ago. One guy who did an unorthodox campaign style almost got elected!
