Malaysia chases Cat.

[sulph]

Found this in my local paper "The Advertiser",for Friday November 24.
(Damn I hate typing)

Barely 13 months after it lifted a 15 year ban on pop concerts,Malaysia's lone Islamist opposition-run state is attempting to woo the artist formerly known as Cat Stevens.
Stevens,known as Yusuf Islam since his conversion to Islam,is favourite to headline a concert celebrating the third anniversary of the Kelantan state capital,Kota Baru,as an "Islamic city".

And that is that!
As an aside,I have in my possession the sheet music to "The Hurt".
What I found interesting is that printed on it is "Words by Eleanor Farjeon,Musical arrangment by Cat Stevens".
As far as I am aware Eleanor was only in on "Morning has broken".
However,when you turn to the first page,It is written "Words & Music by Cat Stevens".
Ok,Thats all folks!

Regards,

Sulph.

Thanks Sulph, I wonder if he will appear?

As for the Hurt sheet music, sound like a typo on the publishers part. They probably published both songs, may have even used the same photo for both songs.

I think he'll appear. It's for a good cause, so somehow, I think he'll schedule an appearence.

Peace,Vivian

Cat power! (to change the world....)

This is wonderful news.

If he does, I hope he remains safe. It's a hard weird wired world these days - someone call an electrician.

[sulph]

Doesnt look like a good career move to me.
I have $50 Aust to say he doesn't.Any takers?

Sulph.

[Lucy13]

I say he does. You're on.

I mean, hasn't he performed in Malaysia on numerous occasions? Isn't Raihan from Malaysia? I don't understand the misgivings.

[Vivian]

I think he will, IF he can fit it into his schedule, but no, I won't bet on it.

Peace,Vivian

I forgot how much I love Raihan! Need to pick up some more of their music one of these days.
