Do You Have What It Takes To Become A Superstar? Nokia and Myx is Calling!

With music, there are no limits. It doesn't care if you only sing cover songs. It could care less if you're a solo artist, a trio or a 15-piece orchestra. It'd never rate according to silly band names, funky clothes or out-of-this world looks. If you wanted to belt out lyrics at the top of your lungs, it'd say "Go ahead." If your performance calls for excessive makeup, it'd scream "Be my guest!" It hates pulling labels. And it'd never call you a sellout. Because when it comes to music, everyone's free to express themselves through it.

This is your chance to fill in the blank sheet. This is Nokia Music Connection.
