So the entire nation of Pakistan is in a state of frenzy now. They are all beaming with delight and laughing. They are constantly talking about it. Facebook and Twitter is so full of it. It's even being seen at Mehndi functions now. You may be wondering what it is that has united the entire nation? It's one man. His name is Taher Shah.
Taher Shah came out with a song several months ago called Eye to Eye and it was aired on televisions. No one paid any attention and he disappeared into obscurity. Some wise guy decided to post the song video online, and before you could blink your eyes, the video went crazy viral everywhere. 15,000+ hits in only two days testifies to the power of the song.
Taher Shah is one of those people, like Meera and Veena Malik, who enjoy being made fun of. They speak bad English, talk funny and carry out such performances that makes us all stand up and watch and pay attention. His song Eye to Eye is being made so much fun of, that I think he is part of the game, as is evident by his responses on his own Facebook account. His replies are like "thank u. let me love you with my eyes."
You can read the entire lyrics here on this website. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, however, watch his interview on Aaj TV and he takes the time to explain the meaning of the lyrics. One questions the meaning of "spectrum eyes" while others question the meaning of "without you, I am like a butterfly..."
We may not get him, his song and his video, but we can surely thank him for providing us with entertainment and making us laugh. Amidst all the depressing news of Pakistan, Taher Shah came at such a time where everyone is smiling and laughing.
