Mr.HINSOM

    Hinsom is a bath stone, which Lao people traditionally use to make their bodies smell good after taking a bath. The Mr Hinsom song tells the tale of a boy from the countryside who comes to visit the Morning Market in Vientiane and meets a sexy girl. He wants to be close to her and flirt with her but he is ashamed of his country clothes, which are not modern like the trendy outfits that city boys wear.
He also worries about the smell of his body because he never uses deodorant or skin lotion after taking a bath, he uses only a hinsom stone. Finally, he decides to flirt with her but he sees a handsome city guy dressed in cool clothes chatting with her so he does not know what to do.
 

OVER DANCE

 

  Over Dance are in the process of making a music video which will be finished soon. Indee Records has scoured the streets of Vientiane for a suitable Mr Hinsom, and have found their man, actor Souphaphone Mixab (Good), an AusAID scholarship student. The record company were looking for someone a little rough around the edges.

"I had no idea that they would select me, I am just a friend of theirs and last Saturday I went to the Indee office to pick my friends up there. They saw me and asked me to be the actor for the video. If I refuse them, they would have complained. It's a great honour for me though," said the new Mr Hinsom.
