webfact Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 Gen. Prayuth Drops Sax-Heavy Ballad To Cheer Thais By Asaree Thaitrakulpanich, Staff Reporter - BANGKOK — Settle in for another smooth jazz ballad from junta chairman Prayuth Chan-ocha, who just Wednesday dropped his latest single, “Hope and Faith,” a track recorded in advance of His Majesty King Bhumibol’s death two weeks ago. In addition to his famed motorcycle riding ability and toppling of the previous civilian government, the retired general is known for penning saccharine ballads for the public, such as “Returning Happiness to the People,” the anthem of his regime that played for much of two years on television and radio.

Thailands Got Talent or X Factor ?? Prayuth has a lot in common with his nemesis Thaksin. Biker boys and singing stars. Prayuth has the better voice, better even than the super hot Arisman Pongruangrong. Thaksin isn't even in their league when it comes to vocalizing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FekmQL5EZmQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NHQlt7OMxQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theguyfromanotherforum Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I think his songs are quite catchy to be honest. Thailand Top 40 material.... and no, I ain't sarcastic.

yellowboat Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 The news of his departure from his present, usurped position would be music to most people's ears. If you cannot wow them with your achievements, revert to catchy, nationalistic songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
