يا سارقني يا حبيبي*

Please disregard the text in grey and read the comments section instead. Fellow-blogger PerseusQ8 clarified the information I falsely posted.
Dear readers, Fairouz & the "Rahabna", please accept my sincere apologies for this misjudgment.

Recently, I've been hungry for movies, I watched 6 movies in 1 week (a lifetime record for me), one of which was Volver.
While Raimunda was cutting bell peppers, Augustina -her aunt's neighbour- approached her to clarify an old family issue... and what caught my attention was the music playing during that scene. It was Hussein Al-Jassmi's باودعك يا الضنا
Watch

In the picture above you can see how the movie makers were honest and referred to Al-Jassmi's song & its copyrights, while scores of Arab "artists" & "composers" do not have the honesty to do so.
What aches my heart is that Fairouz & the Rahbani Brothers are "dishonest" too, or at least one of them.

The music of "Ya ana" by Fairouz & the Rahbabi Bro. (Nas min waraq - 1972) was copied from from the 1st Movement of Mozart's Symphony No.40 (watch)

It didn't stop there... the music of the famous civil war song "Li Beirut" was copied from the adagio of Joaquín Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez (written in 1939 - performed here by Paco de Lucía in 1991).

Fairouz, my love... sorry!

وزير النفط علي الجراح ما يدري من طقاقه، وحوالي نصف النواب لم يحددوا موقفهم بعد من الاستجواب
وإلى أن يقضِ اللهُ أمرا كان مفعولا
أقدم هذه الأغنية كاهداء متواضع للنواب المحتارين الاكارم، مع خالص التحيات لـ ألفونسو الخامس.. عفوا السادس

مجلسنا الموقر وافق على منع تشبه الجنسين ببعضهما البعض
فهل سيوافق على الـ"زيجة" المرتقبة للممثل الانجليزي روبرت ايفيريت؟
د.وليد د.فيصل د.ناصر وبقية المتدكترين، الفحولة العربية الاسلامية تستنجد فهل من مجيب!؟
