Great videos. According to wiki she recorded "Yawara" in 1964 and "Kanashii Sake" in 1966. I can certainly understand what her voice meant to those conquered people. She is a source of great pride even now I'm sure.
The first line of "Yawara" seemed familiar--Katsu to omou na, omoeba make yo- -, so I consulted Ivan Morris' The Nobility of Failure: Tragic Heroes in the History of Japan---the last chapter in the book about the WW II Kamikaze pilots. Sure enough, there again was the first line of the song: Never think of winning! Thoughts of victory will only bring defeat... from a popular song of the kamikaze.

Dawg, can you play like this? JT, can you move your butt like this? :P Star - Valala-misapingo [Madagascar "tsapiky" guitar]

He was a commie! ;) He sang for da man but spoke for the workers! Makes me proud to be an American! ;)
Makes me proud to be an American! ;) Sniff, sniff...Hownddawg! ..Who were his fairer skinned directors with a post-slave name like Robeson and the corruptors of original capitalism? Whose century was the 20ths...and looking to fade in the 21st?

Hillarious !! I hope the Jewish writers and director behind the camera didn't have had too many re-takes with laughs out loud and ruining the shots... G-d Bless Talmudic stoicism for not wasting too much film reel space. ;)
Vusi Mahlasela~ when you come back

"Eyes about to preform a nickelectomy"....(gotta love it, but is it good for the Jews?)

LOL~! And here I was all ready for some sweet romantic reply~ you shoulda made something up :P ***
Well, it's hard to both be romantic and comply with the rigors of "diversity"... :P I figured the exotic strains of Manizha's lilting Tadzhiki verses and the pounding percussionist accompaniment would have a language all its own.. ;)

BTW, you notice that the video appears to be from a broadcast from Kazakhstan--- not Borat's bullshit "Kazakhstan," but the real one.

There is a real one ? :P
Sorta like that Persian dude Omar Khayyam: all he needed was some bread, some wine, some poetry, some shade, and a chick with a good singing voice with him out in some secluded spot. ;) A Book of Verses underneath the Bough, Puissent tous les hommes se souvenir qu'ils sont frères!

Omar Khayyam wrote some .. well interesting poetry.. kinda like the Persian Barry White? :P
Well I'll be ;) **
Kinda hedonistic...kinda "this world-ly"... Lots of references to wine in his verses.. :P Of course, we owe a lot of our impressions of Omar Khayyam to his Victorian era translator Edward Fitzgerald, who admired Khayyam as a fellow non- conformist. His translation is itself a work of art.

Not exactly muslim in nature..
Youze guyz R funny!
The old Vaudeville joke of the Jew at the wake...the last guy to pay his respects...the nickels are pocketed for a dime.
Watch her as a child singing and dancing in war devastated Tokyo in Tokyo Kid in 1950, and as a fun- loving teen-ager in 1955 in Janken Musume (the one on the left with the yellow top; "janken" is sort of like our "Rock, Paper, Scissors" and "musume" means "girls").

In keeping with the diversity theme, I offer you Paul Robeson, "That's why darkies were born" followed by Midnight in Moscow in A-minor.
