SHAH ALAM: It was a surprising exit for famed songstress Datuk Siti Nurhaliza who failed to march on to the finals of the Anugerah Juara Lagu last night after a two-year absence from the competition.
The songbird, who sang Bisakah (composed by Aubrey Suwito and Tessh R.S.) failed to capture the hearts of the judges.
But while it was not a good outing for the superstar, it was a night which left another contestant “speechless”.
Faizal Tahir made it to the finals with two songs — Kasih Tercipta (composed by Ajai and Shuhaimi Baba) and Maha Karya Cinta (Audi Mok and Shah Shamshiri).
“I am speechless. I simply cannot say anything at the moment.
“I would just like to thank the composers for such great songs,” said the elated singer.
The other three songs which made it to the finals are Izinku Pergi (sung by Sahri, composed by Azlan Abu Hassan and Sulu Sarawak), Ceritera Cinta (sung by Jaclyn Victor and Lah, composed by Ross Ariffin and Habsah Hassan) and Harapan (sung by Fazli Zainal, composed by Hazami).
The last round of the AJL semifinal will be held on Nov 25 for the Pop/Rock category.
