Singapore Idol Winner 2006

Singapore has voted and the Singapore Idol for 2006 is HADY MIRZA woo hooo!!!Way to go!!!!!!!!

I didnt really catch the whole series prolly just the final 6 or 7 contestants though i saw bits and pieces of the competition and that cute guy with cute eyes and a cute smile with his spiky hair who carries r & b, soul and jazz tunes with such pizzaze seem to stand out from the crowd. Him and fellow finalist Jonathan Leong was touted to make it to the grand finals held at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.. Both gave outstanding performances but alas Hady Mirza really stood out though i noticed he had some microphone trouble when he was doing the first number with Taufik Batisah and the rest of the gang and when they were dueting with Elector could have been wrong but none the less he was crowned the new Singapore Idol ..

My aunt was over at my place for the breaking of fast and we cheered when he was announced the winner woo hoo and this would the first Singapore Idol or any Idol show for that matter that i have sat through the whole one and a half hour show... My mom came runnning out of her room shocked wondered what happened .. hahah MOMS! panic central hahaha.. His rendition of Lagenda by Sheila Majid brought tears to his eyes and his version of Freedom by George Michael would have made the man proud himself .. Though he went a little off pitch for the song Through the fire originally sung by Chaka Khan - he nonetheless pulled through as the victor. That Chaka Khan number was actually a tough number to sing...
