Raquy Danziger & Said el Artiste Osama Farouk Live in Cairo

If you've never seen Raquy & the Cavemen live in concert, it's worth seeking her out--watch this drum solo she performs in Cairo with Osama Farouk. For an American to keep up with the "big boys" of Egyptian/Arabian cabaret, it's nothing to sneeze at!



Live at American University in Cairo Ewert Memorial Hall, Raquy Said el Artiste Osama Farouk, with Said's troupe + Rami

Thanks to Bev Oberline for sharing this video!

Eurovision 2009 Winner: Alex Rybak, Norway - Fairy Tale

Interesting new video:



I love the violin, though the lyrics/melody sound a bit cheesy. What do you make of the male dancers doing faux-pushups?
