Byt the way yasmina, i know the suheir zaki one i have it on dvd, unfortunately have no idea how to upload it on to youtube...i thought i saw it on youtube aswell but i cant find it now.

Wow! He's fab, but I'm surprised he wasn't arrested for dancing in the street like that!

That's a fantastic demonstration of how small and contained Egyptian dance is - you can immediately spot a Westerner by the way they go running off around the stage in a flurry of movement with fussy hands and every move they can fit in.

So true suheir..it is a lesson to us all, there is absolutely no need to go bananas rushing round, you never see egyptians rushing anywhere !!

I didn't watch all of the videos in the beginning of the thread, but I ABSOLUTELY loved the guy's performance! If I only had a milligram of that talent!

Maria Shashkova's performance (with green costume) is so energetic!

This song had become so popular

Alf schukran wa mabrouk for this thread.

After I watched all movies which was quiete night-filling I dare to publish my point of view based on a scale 1 to 10 like in dance-competitions. I admit in advance that I myself have no clue at all and wouldn't deserve more than 1 point if I only would try.

08 : Brasil Egyptian= with feeling in music etc., let us also admit that he was the only lucky one with an appropiate camera management) according to his kind of dance and environment

7-8: Najla Nar (maybe she even danced better but bad camera management)
7-8: Maria Schaschkowa in green costume, found her very exciting

6-7: Sofia Sarkisyan in pink costume

5-6: Mayada al Khouri= guess her (beautiful) skirt and belt covered all her ?detailed/fine hip movements. At least to me she appeared like a Westerner. My big disappointment. A lebanese (Professional) dancing in an LBC-show: I really expected much more especially feeling.
5-6: Maria Schaschkowa young
5-6: Carol although I had no music with the clip

5 : Asmahan Medinat (light costume at market square)

4-5: Isis

4 : Sarah Nadirah= clear movements, proper choreo but significant deductions for costume and especially for her dead face
4 : Majel= choreo often not fitting with big gym and parts of music
4 : Sabaa

3-4: Meitel= deduction for colour of dress (black)

2-3: unknown home vid (?US-BDstudent)

1 : Amira= she made herself invisible. black clothes on black stage, black background, dark light - that's really haram. At least she she could have drapped her white scarf around her body? but mafi

what I was missing on everybody except for Brasil: they did not make the song itself alive - don't know how to say. lack of internal or mental correspondance between music, singing and dancer

Wow, so nice to have such a detailed review

Thanks! You're absolutely right that camera management has an enormous role in the presentation!

Thank you for posting all that! My internet is slow so I might take a while to watch, but I am quite curious to see different interpretations!
