    Suheir Zaki and Om Khoulsoum

    I've often heard about how Suheir Zaki was the first dancer to dance to OK music. But other than the video of Leylet Hob, I've never seen her dance to any other OK songs. Until this Oua Marayet Al Ayam:

    Yea. Loverly.

    She also does the Amal Hayati bit (top clip) using the music from the original record with vocals. It's a powerhouse.

    In terms of her being the first dancer to dance to Oum Kalthoum, check out Shira's article on the subject:

    Tahia Carioca and Soheir Zaki - Singing with Their Bodies? Dancing to Oum Kalthoum's Music?

    cool stuff!

    Re: Suheir Zaki and Om Khoulsoum

    LOL, those new posts are like a faceoff of Souheir's two most unfortunate/subliminal costumes! I thought the infamous beaded merkin was bad, but that trefoil in the center of the belt on the "Enta Omri" clip is a formidable challenger.

    That's what all dancers should strive for, "singing with their bodies"!
