songs with words?

really?

I just got a call about a party gig.  - previous client.

SURE - I'd love to dance at your party.

it's an Arabic party.  with Arabic people.- awesome.  no problem

Could you bring more songs with words?  uhm.  sure, anything in particular?  no - just songs with words that people will know.

okay then

Amr Diab - Noor El Ein
Nancy Ajram - Ah W Noss

Habibi Ya Eini

Natasha Atlas? or Haifa Wehbe?   but which songs?

does that mean yes or no to the Lebanese songs by Emad Sayyad I usually use.  Some of those have lyrics....


When I first started getting into performing - I was specifically told NEVER perform to music with lyrics but the client is always right - now what do I do? it's just like the other client that wants me to dance to Oum Kalthoum.  do you know how UN-danceable her stuff is?  

If you know of something - suggest it.  I'd LOVE to hear it!
