Sudirman and us

For two consecutive weekend nites, I watched Istimewa Bersama Sudirman (TV2), sempena pemergian beliau.
It's been almost two decades now. I grew up with many of his songs, and I believe some of u too.

We address him as Cokman, his nickname.

p/s: Wei Acik..ingat tak...

"Man topui berak malam

Taik seketoi atas tilam"

err...Adapun Man yang dimaksudkan itu bukanlah Cokman ye, kawan-kawan sekalian.

We had a collection of his cassettes (masa tu mana ada CD maaa). Anak Gembala, Nilai Cinta, Sudirman-Pilihan Nescafe Classic (sebab masa tu glamer dengan Pujaan 10 Nescafe kot!)...bla..bla...

I remember one raya, entah macam mana, Acik got a kad raya reply from Sudirman (he loves entertaining kids kan?). Raya pun dah lama berlalu, but the card really made us like jakun. The "whoaaas!" were so long...
The card looked pretty much like this one.


As for me, I love his style with the trench coat...and I like his nephew, Atai too ;)

Along, Acik & yours truly grew up together... and we each have our own fav. singer. If Acik's is Sudirman, Along's is Rafeah Buang... Hmm... can anyone guess who is mine?

Sapa jwb dgn betul akan menerima hadiah misteri... Hehehe.
Hah. Apa lagi? Sila le teka.
