Future Arab Superstar : Finals : Prime 4

Last night, the fourth episode of the final stage of the arab SuperStar was on Future TV.

Another great episode, I’m sure. But unfortunately, I wasn’t able to watch it.
Future TV signal was all screwed up at my place last night :(

Through the bad signal, I did realize on thing, which is that the episode started by the candidates singing a song together, which I’m sure was cool, although I didn’t hear much of it.

I don’t even know who the guest star was.

So I’m counting on you guys to comment and tell me all about it, what they sang together, what they sang alone, who the guest star was, and who stood out from the rest yesterday. Please :)

The candidates singing in yesterday’s episode were:

Hussam Madanyeh - Syria
Abdel Rahman Mohammad - KSA
Ayman Al Aatar - Libya
Abir Nehme - Lebanon
Ranim Koutait - Egypt
Brigitte Yaghi - Lebanon
Hussam Shami - Lebanon
Ammar Hassan - Palestine
Hadi Aswad - Syria
Mohammad Daoud - Kuwait
Mouhannad Mshallah - Syria

    The guest was Wadih El Safi! The GREAT legend! :O

    I only watched the second half from Brigitte, but I will record the full show in the next 2 hours OK, but I can tell you Wadih sang at the end of the show & everyone was dancing along! Even Elias from the stage. :P

    It was a great show & I cant wait to have the MP3s up. :)

    MMM, I think this show was the weakest compared to previous episodes. So if you had to miss one, you are lucky that this is the one. I think they feared the existence of Wadi3 Al-Safi. However, I personally think Brigete and Muhannad were the best last night, where the two Hussam’s were the worst. The rest were average, somewhere between the top and bottom. You have to listen to the songs once Zlatkot uploads them and let us know what you think.
    By the way, don’t try to adjust the audio once you hear Hussam Madaniyya’s opening mawwal, he was trying to do weird things with the mic… He simply screwed up the mawwal big time. And yes, Hussam Shami screwed up the opening by starting before he was supposed to… not acceptable at this stage.

    Waste of text, so we care for the octect thrown in vain ?

  4. 4 abu farweh Jun 21st, 2004 at 10:03 am

    The episode was weak in comparison yes…I think that the best performances were by Ammar Hassan, Mohannad Michalla7 and Housam Madanieh. Madanieh was a bit arrogant at times and could have sang better without the facial expressions. Everyone else was just average or way below average. The worst performance was that of Ayman Al-A3tar…he sang for Shireen….What the hell. Equally depressing performances curtosy of Houssam Al-Shami, Abdul Ra7man, Mo7ammad Daoud and yes Abir Ni’meh. If anyone has to go at this point I think it should be either of these names. Abir however desreves to be among the top 4 with Ammar, Michalla7 and Madanieh. Everyone else is just plain average.

  5. 5 Bilal Jun 21st, 2004 at 10:40 am

    Well my two Favourites were Abir and Bridgette hope both of em stay. I hope both the Hussams or either Ayman any1 of them should go

  6. 6 Calabala Jun 21st, 2004 at 11:14 am

    i think that this episode was O.K. but not as strong compared to the others. The show started by the candidates singing a Medley for Wadee3 Elsafi (that was great I believe). Some of the names of the songs were:(sorry I don’t remember them all :( )

    Hussam Madanyeh - some song for Wadee3 Elsafi
    Abdel Rahman Mohammad - Quooly A7eboka
    Ayman Al Aatar - Eih Eih
    Abir Nehme - Zeedeeny 3eshqan
    Ranim Koutait - Gameel wa Asmar
    Brigitte Yaghi - Wa7ashteny
    Hussam Shami - 7abeeby
    Ammar Hassan - N/A
    Hadi Aswad - Tabky Altoyoor
    Mohammad Daoud - some song for abd elmajeed abdallah

    I think that Mohammed Daoud and Ayman were the worst this episode —> they sucked BIG TIME!!!
    However, I think Hady Aswad sang Tabky Altoyoor well this episode. Raneem also did a better job this time than all the other times.
    Abeer was not as good this episode and so were both Hossams —> they were just sooo WIERD and different and I certainly didn’t like them. I am still really surprised that Wa3d left this early —> that was as shocking as Yasmeen’s departure from the very first episode.
    I wish all the luck to all candidates cuz I don’t think they’ll get as much votes this time.

    Hi all…
    MOHANNAD WAS REALLY GREAT (I SWARE..)

    i vote to ammar hassan realy he has a strong voic i wish luck for all

  10. 10 dude Jun 21st, 2004 at 2:41 pm

    Personally, I disagree with you guys when you say that this was such a bad episode. Most of the performances were good, and all of my favorites (Hussam Medanieh, Ammar, Mohannad, Brigitte) sang well. Wadi al-Safi being there by itself makes the episode worth recording. Sorry to hear about your bad luck MMM, but I still think you missed out on a great ep.

  11. 11 Stephen Jun 21st, 2004 at 3:21 pm

    Could you please post what the themes are for each week? :)

  12. 12 Firas Jun 21st, 2004 at 4:12 pm

    As in the past episodes … the trio (Mohannad, Ammar, and H. Madanieh) stood out the most, although Madanieh tried to do some “experimenting” in the mawwal part which for a lot didn’t work out, I still believe he has a great voice. Mohannad ROCKED big time. This guy knows how to get people up! Ammar, as usual, great performance although I sort of think he did “yabni” in the 2nd round better than last night. The opening Wadee3 Al Safi Medley” put together by the master Ahmad Qabour was greaaaat. Super Mahdoum part was really funny ;)
    Overall, with the legendary Wadee3 present in it, I think it is still worth watching.

  13. 13 The_One Jun 21st, 2004 at 5:26 pm

    MOHANNAD IS THE BEST!! MOHANNAD IS THE KING OF THE VOICES!! VOTE FOR HIM! HE NEEDS YOU!

  14. 14 Calabala Jun 21st, 2004 at 6:18 pm

    Sorry for missing out Mohanned’s name from my list, I really didn’t mean to do so and I really agree with u guys that he sang very well this episode :) ;)
    However, Hossam’s attempt to make up stuff in the mawwal he was singing was just horrible, VERY HORRIBLE!!! And although I totally agree that Ammar is a very talented guy, I really cannot carry myself to like him and I don’t know why!!!
    Anyways, I wish them all the best of luck cuz they all deserve, or else they wouldn’t have been there till this point!!!

  15. 15 Sophie Jun 21st, 2004 at 7:13 pm

    Go H.Madanya Go Go Go . We all with H.Madanya. Madanya Madanya w bas. Houssam M. is the best. He’s great. great voice, great look, great personalaty. He is the ideal 4 the surname Super Super Super Super World Idol. Vote 4 him, & u r never gonna regert. Oh, I am mad of him. Bye, 4 now.

  18. 18 Ruby Jun 21st, 2004 at 9:19 pm

    Hey everyone :) Missed yall .

    Well last night’s episode was OK . Not the best really but it was still good . The medley in the beginning was AWESOME . Im really glad the composers know to make REALLY good medleys which is a difficult job to do but they made it flawless . So kudos to them .

    Now..as far as performances goes..Amar and Mohannad were the best . I cant find anything wrong with their performances . Their presence was on point and their vocals were amazing . Now..as usual..the stupid ones were definately Abd El Rahman and Ayman ..Stupid shit . But of course..the ” EWW GODDAMN ” award goes to Hussam Madania . oh my god i cant just WAIT for that s.o.b to be kicked out !!! Ooooooh he SO gets on my nerves with his overdone actions and his schreeching.. who the hell told this dumbass that screaming your ass is called singing ? He had me dying with their weird ass facial expressions while singing . It looked like he was sittin on the toilet trying to take a shit but cant !! LMAOOOOOOOOO

    Love you guys :D

  19. 19 etad Jun 21st, 2004 at 9:20 pm

    i think mohammed doesnt deserve to be out he was not the worse yesterday but in general it was a fair votes,,

  20. 20 eyad Jun 21st, 2004 at 9:35 pm

    i think ruby’s comments are not acceptable ..these people are singer and friends ,,we dont need to here these selly comments from you ..behave your self befor typing .
    we are watching this program to have fun not to be rude ..
    the aim of this program is to produce new vioces and give the candidate a chance to show us there best ,,not to win ..this is not football or basketball match ,,the winner will win the trophy and the looser will be kicked out..
    we need all rhe candidate to cont singing ..because as a fan we will have agood time.and we will her a true songs..

    i advise you to watch wwf not superstar..

  21. 21 Abu Farweh Jun 21st, 2004 at 9:41 pm

    My fellow critics, in all honesty I believe that the best singers have already presented themselves….truely Ammar Hassan and Mohannad Mishalla7 are excellent, I like Madanieh but don’t like his arrogance. I agree with RUBY He overdoes the facial expressions, someone should tell him to relax. I think Mohammad Doud has reached a good stage and should be happy with his achievement, he is simply outgunned. Ayman A3tar’s performance opinion deserved the SHITTY AWARD of the night with close seconds from, Houssam Sahmi and the crying baby Abdil Ra7man….What is this guy’s problem, he cries like a wuss on every occasion. I think he should be in the danger zone every week so we can see him sob like a little boy.

  22. 22 Abbood Jun 21st, 2004 at 9:58 pm

    I think you can say whatever you want about Ayman, but he is staying to the top 5. Libya finally has its own voting lines. They will vote like crazy for their fellow libyan no matter how bad he sings. To be honest with you, I think Ayman sang the “happy birthday” song to Ranya way better than Shireen’s song.

    By the way, have you noticed something about Ammar this week?! he didn’t open his mouth as wide as he used to in the past. I think he is reading the comments here and went easy on the mouth… or maybe he hurt his mouth from last week’s 3ala babi waqif amarein that he couldn’t stretch his mouth any more :-)

    Anyway, we haven’t heard from Rami or Zlatkot in a while now. Are you guys busy working on the songs? I am refreshing the idolonline site every minute for the songs. I am still waiting for the two other songs as well dear Zlatkot.

  23. 23 Bilal Jun 21st, 2004 at 9:59 pm

    Who got out tonight???

  24. 24 Bilal Jun 21st, 2004 at 10:07 pm

    hellllllo anybody here who got the boot???

  25. 25 Aman Jun 21st, 2004 at 10:09 pm

    Wow! I can’t believe how harsh some of you are being about Housam Madiniya. He was still really good and I believe much better than almost everyone last night. He did try too hard on the mawwal but to deny that this guy has talent is more than ridiculous and stupid. He does things with his voice that no one else can do, at least he tries to be different. He was amazing. Mohannad, Ammar and Hady also were awesome. I agree that Abir was really weak and Mohamed and Abdel Rahman are always weak, I don’t know how the hell they lasted this long. I’m glad Mohammed got kicked off. Till next week!

  26. 26 Aman Jun 21st, 2004 at 10:12 pm

    Why is everyone calling Housam Madiniya arrogant. Did you guys see how nervous he was in front of Wadi Alsafi? That shows he is humble too. An arrogant guy would not be soo scared in front of him, he was also really nervouse during the voting episode which shows he isn’t that confident all the time. And I also agree that singing wise this week was not that good and I do think they were intimidated by Wadi AlSafi. Who can blame them!

  27. 27 Rami Jun 21st, 2004 at 10:36 pm

    I agree with u Ruby..but i think mohannad mchallah was the best…

  28. 28 Calabala Jun 22nd, 2004 at 12:51 am

    Well, there is a huge difference between self-confidence and arrogance and maybe Mr. Madiniya does not know that difference!!! However, we should not deny his great talent and good voice!
    This week’s voting was awsome, I believe it was fair for the first time this season (THANK GOD THAT HAPPENED BEFORE I DIE):) :) !!!

  29. 29 Calabala Jun 22nd, 2004 at 12:58 am

    Oh, I forgot to mention that the only unfair thing about the voting was to see Hady in the danger zone!! I think he did a pretty good job singing Tabky Altoyoor!
    Ayman Ala3tar should have been in the danger zone instead of Hady —> he sang AWFULLY enough to be in the danger zone this week!

  30. 30 Abu Farweh Jun 22nd, 2004 at 6:48 am

    The big question is someone working on loading the songs? I think its Zlatkot that comes to the rescue…..please help!

  31. 31 joe Jun 22nd, 2004 at 8:02 am

    Can someone please tell me whats with the judges. Are they scared to give a real opinion. What happenened to telling someone that it wasn’t good or that its not up to standard. They have become whimps. Only the female judge will slightly give critisism and then say but don’t get me wrong you were GREAT. The show is great but we need real judges with real opinions. Please tell me what you think.
    JJ

  32. 32 abu farweh Jun 22nd, 2004 at 9:16 am

    The comment about the judges is absolutely true. I think Mrs. Fadia Hajj has been the best in offering her openion. In comparison to the American version of the show the judges have been very mild. I think that both Mr. Rahbani and Mr. Al-Gou’oud granted a lot of credit for below average performances. What kills me is when Mr. Rahbani points to Brigitt’s dad . I mean come on pleeeaaase what does this have to do with anything.

  33. 33 joe Jun 23rd, 2004 at 3:18 am

    Go Abu Farweh
    Finally someone with a little sanity. Why have i not heard such sense before. Good on you. The juges need to get real.

    Joe

  34. 34 joe Jun 23rd, 2004 at 3:22 am

    I stii hold to my opinions yesterday about the judges
    “Can someone please tell me whats with the judges. Are they scared to give a real opinion. What happenened to telling someone that it wasn’t good or that its not up to standard.

    Hussam Al-Shami - Lebanon wallah 7aram telei3eit u have a great voice i cant acceot that u are out of superstar but u are a real big star, and u will always be in our heart.

    take care for your self 7abibna Hussam Al-Shami - Lebanon.

    and that is unfair that you are out from superstar.

    we hope we can see you.

    Hussam Al-Shami you are the best and superstar.

  41. 41 busybee Jul 5th, 2004 at 3:16 am

    I love Mohannad!! He has the most beautiful attitude and voice, please vote for him..I don’t think he did his best in the assala episode but he still deserves to be superstar. I can’t stand Madaniyyeh’s attitude nor the bird faces he makes, very unattractive indeed. Hadi Aswad (love him 2) was the best in this episode and Hossam el shami you are a superstar already baby!

  42. 42 roula Jul 13th, 2004 at 9:34 pm

    I can’t believe that the Syrians are the best in this competition. Husam Madania is very talented and passionate about singing. He is confident and not arrogant in my opinion. He smiles when nervous and has trouble expressing himself. It’s not arrogance at all!

    Hadi Aswad has a nice voice, but still needs more focus to continue improving his voice and style in general. Other than that, he’s adorable!

    Muhannad Meshala7 is a true entertainer and has both great personality and good voice too.

    Ammar Hassan is good as well, however,he screams at times and might be best at aghani wataniyeh. He did not do well in the khaleeji song… it sounded like he’s going to war not singing about love. Missing some feelings for sure!

    All the others are good (some better than others), but my top favorites are either listed above or have already lost in past episodes.

    Finally, remember this is a competition, a show, to discover and strengthen performance talents…
    and that rude comments only come from ignorant people.

    Watch the show and enjoy…
