READER COMMENTS

The most popular song by Miryam Faris was “Haqlaq Rahtak” which represented the local Egyptian art. There was a great purpose behind this song, as it expressed the issue of male dominance, which quite a few males had. It also expressed the eastern women’s desire to be liberated. The song was composed by her elder sister. It was a big success as compared to other singers and lyricists. It won many prizes. This song was the main reason for her success and for her reaching this position which she got today. But today, the affectionate singer Miryam Faris has turned in another direction in the field of arts, which is singing in the Gulf accent. This is very beautiful and demonstrates her broad artistic abilities and her professionalism in the field of singing. Most of the Arab singers, specially the Lebanese singers, face a great deal of difficulty in singing a song in different accents, especially in the Gulf accent. But the artist Miryam Faris has perfected the Gulf accent, as she is one of the most famous artists on the artistic scene today, and is competing with famous singers.

Majida Al Roumi sang songs for many of the poets and composers, and she also sang for kings and presidents. She has been singing in the major festivals in the Arab world. The most important of these festivals is the Festival of Carthage, Jerash. After that, she started recording albums. Her first album was titled “Farewell.” This special album was successful on a very large scale; then several of her albums were released and all of them succeeded. To this day, she still sings distinctive and successful songs on the Lebanese and Arab music scene, and we wish her greater artistic excellence in her future work.

There are many beautiful female voices in Arab show business. Some of these voices are sweet and exceptional, such as the voice of the beautiful singer Haifa Wehbe. Many people, including myself, consider Haifa Wehbe a great voice that adds a lot to the art of Arab singing. She is a great singer who is famous for the singing videos she produces; the music of her songs is distinguished and very relaxing. Haifa's songs are unique and they can be heard all over the Arab countries.

There are many Arab artists who excelled in their singing field with their beautiful voices and the songs that received our admiration and the admiration of all Arab listeners and followers. One of these female artists is the amazing and elegant artist, Miriam Faris who was able to earn the admiration of all her followers, especially the youth. She was able to do that through her songs which are full of admiration and love. Today, Miriam Fares is able to reach all the Arab countries with her art work. She has sung in many Arab countries and she has performed many concerts that were extremely successful and admired by the Arab audience in many of the concerts. I am one of the fans of the artist, Mariam Faris as I think she is one of the most beautiful young voices who own a lot of talents which have helped her to succeed. She is one of the beautiful voices which the audience accommodates with and especially the youth who follow her with passion and admiration. Everyone is sure that Miriam Faris is one of the artists who were able to follow the path of the giants in the field and to pursue artistic steps stably. She will reach farther than she has today because her launch was really huge and she will present us with many beautiful and artistic works. The beautiful and amazing girl, Miriam Faris, is one of the artists who has a lot of potential and artistic capacities which made her popular and admired by everyone for her great performances and work that touch our souls and get our admiration from the first moment

Today, we are all looking to the formidable artist Majida Al-Roumi with admiration and respect for what she has added to Arab singing through her beautiful and elegant artistic work which is as elegant as she is. She has a lot of sound and performance capacities in the way she performs. Artist Majida Al-Roumi is one of the most brilliant women voices in the Arab world and she stands among the top artists. She is one of the artists who have a lot of literature and music which enabled her to reach what she has reached today of a distinguished place among the artists of her generation. With all my due respect to all the artists, the start of Majida Al-Roumi shone more than the others and made her one of the tops ones. We all are fans of the artist Majida Al-Roumi and we love her artistic songs that are very classy and respectful. She is one of the female artists who really care about her art and supervises everything in the work which made all the songs she has performed receive admiration and acceptance to the Arab and Lebanese listener. The listeners give all the respect and admiration to the artist, Majida Al-Roumi, because she does deserve all the respect and admiration.

I consider Fairuz as one of the giants of Arab singers. She is one of the rare voices who have added a lot to the Arab singing. Ms. Fairuz enjoys a beautiful voice which we have always enjoyed along with the sincere lyrics. Lady Fairuz is one of most brilliant women who has offered and still is offering a lot to the Arab singing. She owns a real art that she keeps presenting because she has a talent and she is capable of continuing to walk on the road of art. She is greatly admired by the Arab listener as her work is still remaining and will remain in order for many Arab artists to learn from. In my view, I think that Fairuz is a school for the Arab art as this beautiful voice, which we cannot resist, is one of the best women voices in the Arab professional singing scene since its first launch

Haifa Wehbe is the most beautiful and finest young Lebanese songstress, whose songs reflect pamper, love and sensitivity. In fact, she is considered one of the young master artists who have reached a very developed stage. Haifa has exceeded the artists of her generation because she is careful in selecting wonderful lyrics and songs which are full of sense. As a matter of fact, I would like to congratulate this sweet songstress on her achievements. In fact, she has got a lot of fans who are always longing to be always by her side and listening to her wonderful songs. She is really a fine songstress whose songs are always the most wonderful and the finest. They reflect excitement and love. In fact, the media have never left Haifa Wehbe alone, because she has always occupied the leading and most distinguished position. She is also the most beautiful and finest singer. In fact, her songs are the best proof of our love for her. Indeed, many singers have commented on her in order to tarnish her image. Yet, people who know Haifa will never believe what is said about her. She is one of the nicest, most loving and most beautiful Lebanese singers who reflect sensitivity. Thus, Lebanon is really lucky to have such a master artist as Haifa Wehbe.

Haifa Wehbe is one of the leaders of shameful pubs. In fact, Arab art will never accept such a show artist showing her body. She is one of the artists who are known for striptease. She is one of the most shameful singers. Haifa Wehbe is no more than a publicity artist, given that this issue is clearly revealed in all her songs. As far as I am concerned, she should give up music and become a publicity artist. In fact, I really hate her. As Arab people, we do not feel proud that this Arab songstress is Arab, because she is one of the bad songstresses. I really hate her, given that she represents this silly generation which does not represent love and respect, especially since Arab music is very good. Thus, it never needs such naked songstresses. Indeed, Haifa Wehbe has shot songs in a silly way, and some of them reflect disrespect. For instance, “Bous el Wawa” is a very silly song which we cannot consider an Arab song. Thus, Haifa cannot be compared to master singers, namely Fairouz and Om Kalthoum, who have been very influential in the music realm, given their high sensitivity. In fact, I really respect every singer who respects his/her art and the country where he/she lives. Unfortunately, there are many multi-talented singers in terms of provocation and obscenity like her in such a dear and developed country as Lebanon. Yet, Lebanon is one of the Arab countries that contain the greatest number of respectful singers. Unfortunately, Haifa Wehbe is a Lebanese singer whose art is based on publicity, pamper and performing obscene songs. She displayed such an obscenity in the film “Dokkan Shahata,” which reflects the extent of her poor artistic quality and obscenity. In fact, she has had hundreds of plastic surgeries and this will make her a comedienne one day. In conclusion, I neither love her nor do I wish the best for her, because she is a bad show singer.

Fairouz is a great artist who left behind her, after long years of singing, a long history of singing that is full of very famous songs that became songs for everyone. People from the generation of Fairouz, and from the current generation as well, sing them. Although we have a new generation and we are in a different time that is very fast-paced, and this is a generation that has hundreds of options and a lot of female singers, as there are a lot of Lebanese and Arabian female singers, in spite of all of that, Fairouz has been able to keep her position and glamor. Everyone knows who Fairouz is, and what is her value is. She has many fans all over the world and the Arab world. Everyone enjoys it in the morning when he listens to this voice, which is like a sacred, angelic voice that is warm and delicate, and they enjoy all these songs in the morning, sung by the voice of Fairouz. Authentic art remains the same. It has always its fans, and throughout all generations, Fairouz will be immortal in people’s memory by virtue of her beautiful songs and because of what she sang all her life. Fairouz was different among the rest of the singers, and to this day, we have never witnessed anyone like her, who presents art the way Fairouz does. Her way of singing is different, as she sings the most difficult songs, lyrics and music, and she has been unique in everything she has sung. She sang national and enthusiastic songs, as she was famous of her patriotism and her love for the Arab world, as she sang for a lot of Arab countries. She sang for childhood as well, and for the morning and night, about love, suffering and longing. She was very creative in all her works. We want to send all love and greetings to this great artist. I personally consider her the second in the Arab world to the extent of the generations, after the creative Um Kalthoum.

She is from the young generation and considers herself a singer or an artist. Who is she compared to Um Kulthoum, or who is she compared to Fairouz or Magda Al Rumy? Believe me, I do not think that there is an artist who has equaled those immortal artists in memory, but the singing today is mere dancing, singing and shaking. This is what Meriam Fares and others are presenting, who do not have any respect, as those great artists have. Every one of them sings, as they love singing, and not to tempt or gain money or fame, but their talent surpasses all these aspects. The songs that Meriam Fares is presenting are nonsense and mere laughter, especially when I see her jumping in the video clip from one place to the other, and making these movements so as to tempt the youth through these movements, as well as the immoral clothes that she is wearing so as to attract the eyes of the youth and not their hearing. The artist should establish respect for himself before thinking of anything else. Respect is one of the most important matters which should accompany the artist, so as to really become successful. Moreover, all her songs and songs' ideas are confused and stolen, and they do not express the Arab way of thinking at all. Why doesn’t she go and sing western songs, and the issue will be resolved? She has nothing to do with the Arab singing at all, and above all, she calls herself an artist and an Arab one.

Majida Al-Roumi has a lot of capacities and culture in the music field. Besides, she is fluent in many languages. In fact, she has performed many concerts. That’s why she has succeeded in winning her fans’ admiration and her fame has increased. Thus, she has reached the top of success in the field of music, and she has attracted the fans’ admiration and love, thanks to her beautiful songs, her way of performing them, and her great vocal capacities. In fact, Majida Al-Roumi is one of the best Arab female singers. And she deserves all respect, thanks to her performance and her wonderful songs that have enriched her artistic career, which is full of big successes. In fact, those who follow the works of Majida Al-Roumi can understand the extent of her success. Thus, we hope that this success will continue, because she still has the ability to add many things to the Arab music, which has become more beautiful, thanks to these pure and beautiful voices.

Merriam Fares has won the hearts of the fans, and a lot of Arab citizens love her. Yet, she is currently in an embarrassing situation with Fairouz. In fact, it is not a big problem. Merriam Fares wants to portray the personality of Fairouz in a role about the biography of her life. However, Fairouz has refused, while Merriam wants to perform the work, given that it will increase her stardom and add a distinguished facet to her career. In fact, I do not think that the role of Selena will be carried out, because Fairouz is determined to hinder this issue, and there is no compromise over it. Thus, I personally hope and beg Fairouz through this free space to grant the request of young Merriam, who is willing to perform the role of such an important and prominent figure as Fairouz. I also hope that the latter will not defy the wish of Merriam and will grant her the opportunity to reach stardom, so that she will be immortal in the hearts of all the Arabs and all her fans. Indeed, I am one of the people who are the most interested in this issue, and I would like to find a solution to this problem. God willing, this is not a big problem, as many people think. Yet, there must be cooperation between artists in order to reveal the artistic sense to the entire Arab and international world. God willing, this issue will have a good ending, and I pray God to grant both songstresses all the best and success. I also pray God to spread goodness and love in the hearts of all Arabs and the entire world, O God the Almighty.

We should feel proud of Majda Roumi, who has an honorable and respected artistic family which reflects respect, fidelity, nobility and values. In fact, she has gotten us accustomed to her performing nice, distinguished songs. Yet, the most important thing is her modest appearance in all her songs and festivals. Thus, I pray God to grant her all the best and success, hoping that she will make progress. We also hope that the Mawazine Festivals will be one of the most important festivals, where Majda Roumi has performed her best and most wonderful songs. Indeed, all her fans from Morocco and the other Arab countries respect her and show her continuous love. God willing, she will progress and will be the best singer for all Arabs and all her fans, given that she has never been criticized for her work or for any concert. On the contrary, all people love and respect her and respect her work, and success is from God.

Majida Al-Roumi is one of the greatest Arab singers, thanks to her beautiful voice. She started in Lebanon and then she became known on the Arab scene, thanks to her strong, beautiful and distinguished voice. Today, she has become very successful because she has taken an interest in choosing her songs. Besides, she has made great efforts in order to give the best artistic works. That’s why we are fans of this wonderful singer. Thus, Majida Al-Roumi has become one of the top singers on the Arab music scene, thanks to her dealing well with Arab music. Besides, she is among the best female Lebanese singers, thanks to her beautiful and strong voice. In fact, she has excelled in performing poems. This is in addition to her dealing well with lyrics, despite their difficulty. Thus, this has increased her brilliance.

I think that mere words cannot describe my love for Lady Fairuz. I think that she is a school of Arab music, and this is also according to her fans and followers. In fact, she is a wonderful and great singer. And this has set her apart from all the others of the same generation and from the young female Lebanese singers. Thus, Fairuz is among the great singers, thanks to her distinguished music. In fact, she has been singing for decades, and she has performed the most wonderful songs that are still successful among the Arab audience, thanks to their beautiful lyrics and tunes. Thus, Fairuz is among the rare phenomena, especially since she has succeeded in preserving her level since her debut. And she still works on her songs by adding new things, thanks to her great capacity and her wonderful voice that can bring comfort and soothe the souls. Thus, I am a fan of this angelic voice that has proved itself on the Arab music scene. Besides, her luster and beauty are increasing over the years. In fact, all the Arab audiences, without exception, listen to Fairuz and follow her works and songs with love and passion.

The legendary singer Fairuz performed many songs about her love to her homeland, Arabic origin, Jerusalem, Baghdad, children, joy, sadness, pain and love. She presented many songs and poems in which she cooperated with a lot of composers such as her husband and her son in addition to other musicians. Her songs are distinguished and this is why she reached such status. I love her angelic beautiful voice.

Fairuz is a name passed on through generations. Fairuz is a singer with an angelic, strong voice that resembles the singing of the morning nightingale. This is the title which the fans of Fairuz should give her to show the beauty of the voice she has. She is a great star who reached stardom in Lebanon and the whole Arab World. She performed many beautiful, magnificent songs with her legendary peculiar voice that has lasted till this day. The voice of Fairuz always refreshes the listener and makes him or her feel the beauty of life without his or her knowledge. The reason is her beautiful voice and outstanding music that would take you to another world especially in the morning. Fairuz is considered the first Lebanese singer and the master of Lebanese singing art because we have never seen a Lebanese singer from the generation of Fairuz or the current generation that reached the same status which Fairuz occupies through her exceptional, gleeful voice. Fairuz is one of the legends of Arabic singing in general. Her voice is soft and kind, it would make you feel happy with its sweetness and calmness. You will feel that you need to listen to her in the morning. I am one of the people who are addicted to listening to her voice in the morning when I wake up because listening to her gives me energy, power, vigor and optimism. Indeed, Fairuz represents the genuine Arabic singing while the rest of singers are meaningless. Try to notice and compare between the songs that are performed nowadays which are fast and idiotic with no good lyrics or music and the songs of Fairuz. Compare them even with one song of Fairuz and you will immediately know the difference.

Fairuz is among the top singers in Lebanon. And she is among the best Arab singers. This great singer has granted great love to her fans. And she has expressed her love and respect for the authentic music. Thus, I am one of her fans, because she has a wonderful voice and feeling. In fact, Lebanon has never witnessed a singer like Fairuz, because her voice is like the nightingale that sings in the morning. In fact, I love her because she is a real singer and she has performed a lot of wonderful and unforgettable songs. Thus, Fairuz is among the unique and precious Lebanese ladies, thanks to her movies and plays. In fact, she has presented many excellent things. That’s why I am sure that all the Lebanese people love Lady Fairuz, thanks to her wonderful look. In fact, I am proud of being Arab and I love Fairuz because she is a unique singer who is full of love, respect and self-confidence.

I love Lady Fairuz very much and I still listen to her songs, especially in the morning, which is the most beautiful thing in life. Thus, you will have a beautiful day when you start by listening to Fairuz, who has a wonderful voice and feeling. In fact, I cannot describe my love and appreciation for Fairuz. And I love all her movies and songs, especially “Ya Tyr” and “Bayaa Al-Khawatem.” In fact, up to now, Fairuz has not been criticized by the press or media, because she is a creative and excellent artist. Thus, no one dares to speak about her. In fact, they have praised her works, especially since she has conveyed her voice as far as possible to the Arab and European worlds. I pray God to grant her well-being and a long life. And I hope that her new songs will be more beautiful and wonderful. In fact, she has given the important role of Selena to the young singer, Myriam Fares. This is in order to remember our memories. And it is important to learn from her important history. In fact, Iraqis are among the people who love Fairuz the most. And you can listen to Fairuz in the morning in every Iraqi house or cafeteria. Besides, the Iraqi singer Kadim Al-Sahir has visited her in Lebanon, because he loves her very much. This is in order to live a historical moment. May God grant success to all those who love her.

Magda al-Rumi is a respected Lebanese singer with an unusual larynx. I love and respect her because all her songs are decent and she does not sing about anything bad. Her singing videos are of the best and most beautiful quality. She is a Lebanese singer who has presented the best and greatest songs so far. She imitates other Lebanese singers, like Sabah and Fairuz. She follows the footsteps of both singers. Her career is successful, because she follows both Sabah and Fairuz in terms of good manners and respect by presenting good Arab and Lebanese songs. She has great and beautiful songs, such as “Tawq al-Yasameen,” i.e. “The Jasmine Necklace.” She challenges herself to be better and to reach a higher status. She received many prizes and took part in many concerts, operettas and national songs. She performed in many ceremonies which reflect her passion for music. Magda al-Rumi was hurt by many other singers and journalists, but that is normal and it happens to any famous artist who has reached that level of sophistication. Those who criticize her are only jealous; they just express what they think and nothing more. Magda al-Rumi comes from a respected family that is famous for its record of achievements. Magda’s family is artistic and they have a long history in art. So, what some people say about Magda, that she does not have any achievements, is not true at all. I pray to God to bless her with goodness and success. I hope she ignores any kind of criticism, because she is a classy, great artist; I really love her for her good manners, songs and her great music that expresses feelings. I love her great voice. May God make her successful in everything she does! Amen, O Lord of the Worlds!

Many words can be said about the Lebanese singer Fairuz: the Arab and International artist, the delicate voice, the sensitive feelings, mercy, tenderness, kindness of the heart, the morning sparrows, the singing of birds, the roar of water, the strength of the mountain, the ability to love, the feelings and good taste. All those words do not express everything about this sophisticated, innovative and elegant artist. The genuine Lebanese performer Fairuz has a kind heart; she has a great delicate taste and an expressive voice. Her voice is legendary; there is nothing like that voice. There is no voice like hers. Also, the characteristics that distinguish her are not in any other artist or performer. She has the sweetest voice in the Arab world. She is great in choosing her songs and music. Her voice is enough; she does not even need music. I love her very, very much. I remember when I was young, my family and relatives started their day by listening to Fairuz. The first thing they heard after waking up was the voice of Mrs. Fairuz, because the radio used to broadcast the songs of Fairuz in the morning. If you hear her voice in the morning, your day will be beautiful, calm and relaxed. I do the same even after growing up; I do what my family and relatives did when I was young.

She is a true singer and she deserves her title, because she is endowed with the best voice that pleases people at the beginning of every day. Her soft, angelic, romantic and sensational voice helps the listeners to relax. In fact, the Lebanese singer Fairuz has produced many beautiful and popular songs, which resemble the chanting of birds in the morning. Fairuz has been successful in the selection of her songs, in terms of lyrics and melody. I do believe that no other female singer can compete with the Lebanese star Fairuz. The latter is distinguished by her style, performance, soft voice, attractive character and elevated taste. In fact, she has participated in many festivals, ceremonies and other events. She has celebrated love, romanticism and patriotism in her songs.

Merriam Farres is a lovable, young and sweet artist. I am one of her biggest fans because she is good-looking and she has a good nature too. Her songs are beautiful and great. Her lyrics express love, feelings, sadness, love of her nation and everything about life. I love and respect her, because she is one of the Lebanese singers who preserve the essence of Lebanese art. She expresses her talent and her love of songs and art. She is also a wonderful dancer; she can dance ballet. Everything about her is just wonderful and classy. She is one of the best Arab singers who represents her country everywhere. I respect her because her songs and singing videos are wonderful and classy. She is an artist with many talents, such as singing and dancing. She can also perform all Arabic dialects, such as the Khaleeji, i.e. the Arabic Gulf dialect. Her last Khaleeji song, “Min Ayony,” i.e. “As you wish,” is wonderful and very beautiful. She can also sing in the Iraqi dialect. The Iraqis call her the Iraqi Merriam. She performed her best songs when she visited Iraq. She has a very good and high taste. Iraqis love her already. They call her the Iraqi Merriam because they want her to visit Iraq again. Iraqis want to listen to her again because they love her so much. She picked an Iraqi song which she will record soon. I pray to God to always make her successful. Hopefully she will always be the best singer. She performed the best and most sophisticated songs for her people. She was criticized in the papers and magazines, but that happens to every artist; they are used to that. Some Arab singers said bad things about her as well. She performed in many festivals and public and private concerts. She is a respected singer with a beautiful voice. She looks beautiful all the time and she did not have any plastic surgeries. She is the most beautiful and sweetest singer for us. Her performance of Ramada Riddles, al-Fawazir, was outstanding, sensitive and classy.
