@toyeca1: Now don't make up bullshit excuses. I proved you wrong so you should shut up. Some people appreciate new music, others feel imperialistic and act like you.

@toyeca1 Dude,you are one of those haters. Fine. I mentioned several artists in my last post. English is an international language - that also helps songs sung in English become more popular throughout the world. Songs sung in Urdu/ Hindi may not pick become so popular because only a handful of immigrants speak that language. Just to shut you up, I will present the song Chayya Chayya - it was originally seen in the movie "Dil se", then played in the credits if "inside man".

@thelegendarypaki Sadly, I'm still waiting for the name of that song. A.R Rahman exerts so much influence throughout the rest of the world that if you mention his name, there's a slim possibility that they will link him to Slumdog Millionaire. Thank you for informing me that there are artists who tour countries. I really didn't know that.
Nonetheless, Junoon's music, lyrics, and sentiment present nothing original to the audience. They can't compare with terrible bands abroad. And they haven't.

@toyeca1 And to answer your earlier challenge when you asked me to name any South Asian song with international appeal....Ever heard of A.R Rahman, the Indian music composer who won academy award for Slumdog. Or the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali. There are a lot of artists who tour foreign countries on regular basis to entertain their audiences. Then there are foreign born artists like Imran Khan who bring foreign influences to their culture. Let go of the hate my dear, you will feel better.

@toyeca1 Sadly a year has passed by but your bias didn't fade away. I am not insecure about Pakistan - we have several problems and the country is making progress. With that said I think Junoon is very original, I don't know your background so I can't say whether you get the right vibe from the song because you don't speak the language. In any case, if you said they cannot be compared to "anything" you made it very clear that you think they can't stand against even the worst bands abroad.

@thelegendarypaki Oh my. No need to be insecure about Pakistan. Their sound can't be compared to bands simply because they are unoriginal. I tried holding them up to standards that were too high. I just wish they were more creative.
That being said, I think the band does wonders for people in Pakistan who want to express themselves.

my friend you are trying to reinterpret yourself more diplomatically- You said "their sound cannot even compare to anything out of Britain or US or even Japan" emphasis on "anything"- so to you these guys may not have a world appeal, thats fine, but they cant even be compared to anything just because they are from Pakistan-sounds like you are an ABCD, (look it up). As for world appeal songs- there are many that are many that enjoyed in western culture- e.g. Indian flute.
