By fan request, here's the UNC Clef Hangers cover of Monica's "Angel Of Mine" with soloist Anoop Desai and help from Chris Melly and Charles Askew, at their 2007 Spring Concert in Chapel Hill
I just discovered Anoop yesterday and have been on a binge after learning how to spell his name. American Idol used to show the contestants name. During his audition they didn't and I'd almost given up.
They were good friends and fellow students, and she was a huge, loyal fan of all of the Clef Hangers. Brutally murdered exactly one year ago yesterday and the memorial service recognizing the one year date was in Chapel Hill, which Anoop had to miss to be in Hollywood, so he wanted to let everyone know his heart was with them and with Eve in Heaven.
I just have an ear-to-ear grin everytime I listen to Anoop sing...he's amazing... Shame he didn't pass right into the top 12. Hope the judges make it right...wildcard!
Anoop will definitely get the Wildcard and be back. When he gets back, he will show all of the others how it is done. This is only the beginning. Remember American Idol loves drama.
i hope he will sing this or the only one for me.... i hope he will choose a song that will show his skills and one that would leave an impact.... pls vote for him!!!
@livemylife15 Chapel Hill, North Carolina is where his family lives, where he finished high school, and actually where he went to college at UNC - Chapel Hill. He has lived part-time in Los Angeles since last Fall as he has launched his music career after American Idol.
OK GUYS, THIS IS IT, he is in teh danny group which means OVERTIME IN VOTING NEXT WEEK!!!!!!! HE NEEDS OUR HELP AND LETS DO IT NEXT WEEK!!!!!! VOTE FOR ANOOP!!!!!!!
Anoop will definitely be back with the first Wild Card pick. The judges will choose 3 Wild Card picks and we all know that Anoop will definitely get one of the picks. He will be back in a few weeks. This just gives him a chance to better prepare himself. Clay Aiken came back as a Wild Card pick and finished 2nd to Ruben. I believe Anoop will win it all.
Sure - it's up now. That's another one that I can't believe I didn't already have up. It's a classic Clef song that they do at least at every Fall concert... Enjoy, and thanks for the request!
SERIOUSLY I am voting for anoop desai this year, and this is the first year i will vote. im going to vote like crazy hahaha. Anoop you can't dance though dawg.. i saw that clip of you trying to dance haha stick with singing hahaha :P ;) just playing haha
Damn! I almost cried when Anoop's name was announced by Simon! I mean, no exaggeration, but I so love the way Anoop sings! I thought he wouldn't be part of the Wild Card! So to everyone, PICK UP THE PHONE and VOTE FOR ANOOP!!!! :-)
actually watching all the videos i thing the entire group has talent and someone should sign them as a group if they're still in contact with each other.
After the next two groups of 12 perform over the next 2 weeks, then they will bring back 3 Wildcard picks to make the top 12 finalists. They are letting the voters pick 9 finalists and the judges will pick the other 3 from the group of the 27 they sent home as Wildcard picks. Don't worry- Anoop will definitely get the Wildcard pick from his group. Remember Clay Aiken. He was brought back as a Wildcard pick and finished in the number 2 spot behind Ruben. Anoop is in it to win it.
They produce a CD every 2 years - next one due out this April. Check out, listen to samples, and purchase if you'd like, their most recent CD's at their website: clefhangers dot see ohh emmm.... Thanks!
