Posted October 14, 2007 · Report post I heard last evening an arabic version of Ki an se Thelo and I was trying to find the song here to see who was its composer but couldn't find the answer ( I confess I may have lost the "touch" to search). Any help would be very welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 14, 2007 · Report post Celeste the composer is Abderrahmane Amrani and is sung by Rachid Taha! The title of the original song is: Ya Rayah!

Posted October 14, 2007 · Report post No! Dalaras' version is an adaptation by Goran Bregovic. It's not the first version of the song! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 22, 2007 · Report post Hi everyone, Here is an amateur video by Arab Israeli musician Helal Nassar. He performs the Dalaras song "Ach, o baglamas" in Arabic. I am quite sure that Nassar's tune has been inspired by the Hebrew-language version by Israeli Jewish (Yemenite) singer Zohar Argov. http://www.hebrewsongs.com/?song=kachovrimchayay Best, Eva Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
