Album Description "Scream"

If Siavash's past albums firmly established him as a Persian icon, his album "Scream" established him as a World Star.

Faryad, "Scream" broke into the Persian market with a smash, selling out of stores, 35,000 copies, in the first 3 months. This album was close to his heart because he wrote and produced the album himself. The now classic TRACK 3 "Boro dige doset Nadaram" became a huge hit around the world and is a persian classic today. With it's upbeat, spirited lyrics about lost love and regaining your life, "Go away, I don't love you any more" became the song of a generation staying on the Eurodance Top 40 Chart at MP3.com for two years. It has the energy and heart of Gloria Gaynor's "I will Survive" and whatever language you speak, it will have you dancing. With this album, Siavash also began to cross over into a world market with his breakthrough Spanish hit, TRACK 6 "Historia de Amour" which has been played in radio stations in Mexico & London and was also on the Latin Pop, top 40 charts at mP3.com for 2 years, as well. Siavash took a slow classic and made it into a modern hit with his sexy, smooth voice and a pulsing dance beat mixed with gorgeous acoustic guitars. Although people have tried to imitate his style with "Historia de Amour", no re-make has come close.
He has his amazing Persian fans to thank for this breakthrough with there support of his music and there pride in bringing his music to people of different cultures, he can now also count Americans, Spanish, Swedish and Arabic as just a few of his new fans.

and Humanity for all, these are the only answers to any questions." He has lived a drug-free life, instead choosing to speak out against drug abuse in his community.
