رد: عبد الحليم و ام كلثوم
Dear Mr ZikoHalim
As a memebr of this wonderful site you have the right to post your opinion on things and artisits erc, however, it is irrisponsible to blurt out what can only be described as badly written tabloid garbage which has no place here. Om kolthoum is Om Kolthoum, The arab's no.1 singer since 1924 (5 years before abdelhaleem was even born!) until her death in 1975. Abdelhaleem was a great "performer" kind of like Elvis Presley or a Frank Sinatra. No Doubt abdelhaleem was great at what he did and i am a big big fan but Om Kolthoum is an institution of music spanning 51 years n which her music and singing styles varied throughout half a century to map out the evolution of arabic and in aprticular egyptian music. Please be more responsible in your writing and perhaps state the references on which you depended on for your "facts" otherwise your words would have as much value as a bit of chit chat in a central Cairo Cafe !
