OK, now that opens up a heap of options so to make it a bit easier, choose two versions of the same song that you like and tell us what you like about each version.
I'm picking two versions of Habibi Ya Eini.
The first is a cane danced to the song - I love her interaction with the audience, and obvious enjoyment of the dance...

YouTube - cane dance
The second is a very different interpretation, and what I like about this is her restraint and laid-back style.

YouTube - Habibi Ya Aini

I really do like the woman in the purple dress. Who is she?
It was really nice and relaxed as you say.

I dont know how to attach youtube clips, but I really like one of Lucy of DC.
I thought she was sooo lovely! perhaps some else knows how to add it?

If you look at the youtube URL, it says www. youtube.com/watch?v= followed by a code consisting of letters and numbers. For adding a youtube video, you type that code like this:

[youtube]specific code of the video[/youtube ]

(leave out the space. I did that to make visible what you have to type)

So, don't type the whole youtube url, only the code.

I really liked that first clip - she's a great dancer and entertainer, and knows that cane like the back of her hand!
