Roveena – Someone Like You

Is Myspace.com still around? Not sure, we haven’t checked our account for years! So where do we get to hear the hottest new talent. How does Thamarai.com find all these amazing artists? Facebook, I hear you say? It’s not! The credit goes to the video uploading giants Youtube.com. Just as video killed the Radio star, it’s digital offspring decided to serve a killer blow to Myspace aswell! Search your favourite song by typing in the name of your favourite singer, and then check out the acoustic covers by the unsigned artists. These are not just limited to English songs but Tamil or Hindi if you prefer. See if that version matches or even surpasses the original. If so, fingers crossed the singer has their own material!

Roveena is a Canadian singer of Tamil heritage who gained popularity after a mainstream Canadian television channel gave her a platform on their morning show. We are proud to say we spotted her straight after and spread the word! Where has she been since? The self-taught singer & musician has been busy honing her talent, competing in a televised Tamil singing competition, and performing at various events including singing the national anthem at professional baseball games! Using Youtube to get her music heard, Roveena has uploaded this week an acoustic cover of "Someone Like You" by Adele. Let us know what you think. We can’t wait for her to be the next viral hit!
