Free Kuwait Songs


[YouTube]

I was at Avenues two nights back and spotted a girl wearing a Free Kuwait sweatshirt and since then I’ve had the Nabil Sheal song stuck in my head. So I thought I would look for it on YouTube when I accidenty found the videos above and below. I don’t remember ever hearing them before and the one below has a guy that looks like Borat singing. Very weird. Anyway here is the link to the Nabil Sheal version of the song. [Link]

I so want to see the present photo of the crying kid. Also, if anyone can come forward from that little troop of background dancing and singing kids and show/share where and what they are doing now. 🙂

Kuwait is ours Kuwait is free…! YaY!

Auuuugh the borat guy singing! I remember listening to it once only on KTV1 in 1992 o it stuck in my mind o i looked all over for it o couldn’t find it! THANKS MARK!!!!

There was also another lovely song that disappeared for 18 years after being aired every single day day in 1991… I finally found it last year! This one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZaDiYP5Mwk

There is this one very very old song for Nabeel Sh3ail from the 1980’s … maybe 1985… he sang it for the handicaps o it was really beautiful but for some reason it is the only one you can never find anywhere… la online wala off line… it goes like this

E7na al mathal il a3la fi il ta7adi wel 9aber…
Amana Bel mawlaa o rethena bel qedar…
O ma fi shay ismah mosta7eeel… la la hathi 7ejat kil zeleeeeel…

I love this extinct song 🙁

Now time to listen to borat… very 80ish 😀

Nabil sang another song during the occupation that was soooo powerful/so emotional and I still can’t find the song.

I have seen a few of the “Free Kuwait” t-shirts being worn around lately. I wonder if it is a new political statement.

Amer Al-Hilal did a short video montage of Kuwait during the occupation set to metal music in the background. I wonder if he has uploaded a copy anywhere (?). It was excellent.

Haha Borat! You got it right!
As for the Free Kuwait shirts, a couple of young Kuwaiti designers have been re-designing these t-shirts and selling them.. But I can’t remember who exactly. If anyone can remember, I’d be grateful if you post the name..
