I registered as a member of Sajha just yesterday and have been liking it so far. But members such as boulevard dreams and their impulsive comments set me thinking. All of us have opinions. I liked the song and you did not. As long as it remained at that it would not have been a problem. But when you go ahead and make judgements on facts without an iota of research then you end up making a fool of yourself. Let me start by telling you that the music video of this song that you are blasting about has been borrowed and compiled from three Korean videos (not from a video from Oasis) and unlike a lot of people out there Akarsha has given due credit  to the source. Had you had the patience and presence of mind to wait until the end of the video where the singer has cited his source, you would not have made the comment which has made you look nothing but stupid and rash.

I don't know Akarshan and am not one of his so-called relatives. I am just a person who liked the song. Now I don't know what caused him to use Korean Muisc videos for his song. Maybe he really does not have the means to make a video and wants to put his song out there for music lovers to hear, or maybe his video is in the making. No matter what his reasons, he took over the gruelling task to compile an innovative video from 3 different songs. And unlike people like you, took the pains to cite. Had he been like you, he would have made claims that the clip of the girl was from Oasis(which it is not, and the guy from the video was in fact him (whciha again you seem to be thinking).

So Boulevard Dreams, just do your homework before you go around blasting people. And your choice of words says a lot about you. You don't respect others so I can well imagine the amount of respect you get  in return. Instead of encouraging upcoming singers, you blast out insults that are not even true. Maybe, you are a proponent of the hip-hop singers that are found in plenty these days. A simple "I don't like the song and I don't like the concept of using Korean Music videos for the song" would have sufficed to relay your message across. But, you have to have decency and class for that. And sadly enough, these values seem to be lacking in you.
