Walid Toufic, Our Paul McCartney



He has never been a rocker, but he has been affiliated with great music, a nice persona, and loved and respected by pretty much everyone. Walid continues to do it for the love of the music and the art itself. His album this year was worthy of his long career that started in 1973. He has appeared in a dozen of commercially successful movies, but his voice has always been his brand.

He has 20 albums under his belt and both women and men love him for music music and his charisma. He has one of the longest and happiest marriages in the entertainment world. He has been a driving force in making Beirut the music capital it's now days.

Last great song from him came in 2003, and then everything he did up to 2010 was forgettable, but not his album of this year. It's was a treat and even those who have called on Walid Toufic to quit has taken a humble pie and enjoyed his album that has many offerings to all musical tastes. Here is the music video for Ma Ba'ref Sho Bady, a mellow song on his album that shows he still got his groove and charm and smile.
