THE MESMERIZING EAST

  1. Beautiful videos, TH2; the Eastern church is dear to my heart. 

    I thought I read last year that Fairuz was living in the U.S., but now I can't find any sources to confirm it.  In any case, she's an amazing singer who is loved equally by Muslims and Christians.

  2. Yes, she has a most enchanting voice. There  some other videos of her singing at Coptic Orthodox churches during Easter. Done within the last few years, I think.

  3. I stumbled on your blog by accident when I noticed you had visited my "intense comments" profile.Neat blog.I love music from the Near East especially Rai.I can't understand a word but I don't listen to english lyrics either-to me the voice is an instrument.I recommend S'nel Fik  Cheba Fadela et Cheb Sahraoui - N'Sel Fik

  4. Thanks Tweety. Don't worry about the corniness. Yours truly is a big fan on 1970s/1980s Hindi/Bollywood films.
