Egypt's songs, memories


Here friends I present you with these 15 songs of times gone by, ones that bringback amazingly warm and happy memories.  Please note the absence of bearded, zebiba men, the ones with the crazy looks in their eyes, and surprise, surprise, women looked decent and beautiful, you could not detect one niqab or higab or anything else like that.
 
In listening to these songs, remember the Egypt we love.
 
The songs start with one of my all-time favorites, one that I dedicate to my mother, and all mothers, the absolute best humanity has offered us.  The second one is also a great, great one about our favorite nation: Egypt.
