There is no such idiot thing as the clash of civilizations! The Greek community in Egypt (Alexandria) thrived for centuries some even actively supported the Arab quest for independence. And today, poor Greece, humiliated and ruined, what have they done to you! To all viewers, I also invite to watch Costas Ferris' movie Rembetiko (1983). Peace.
No need to discussion dear Orientals. There is nothing belong to Turkic, Arabic, Magribi, Egyptian, Persian, Jew culture, you know it wrong. East of Europe, till India everything is Greek. Just accept and be cool.
@childofsirius This is true, but I believe that here it is being used as a substantive, as is common in Greek, with the meaning of "Egyptian girl" understood from only the word "Egyptian." However, because the substantive meaning is not necessarily clear in the direct translation into English, I believe the translation as "Egyptian girl" is both valid and meaningful, if not required. Good looking out though, and thanks for the clarification :)
@baskurtf24 Yes, that's correct, in Greek it's Αιγυπτος. Misir is a Turkish loan from Arabic Miṣr, which I believe is a loan from Hebrew. The Egyptian word was Keemit, with variation for dialect, of course.
@TheSunmanho Exactly. Places where the races blend have hybrid vigor and a bad habit of being dynamic and creative, leading to flourishing civilizations. Better to remain with the safe decay of inbred racial purity so we never have to learn anything or actually think.
Fear and ignorance is your only shield from growth and maturity, my friend.
A most interesting classic to be sure, but let's not kid ourselves - if Dick Dale hadn't cranked out his surf version in the early '60s most of us would still have never heard of this song and even fewer would ever listen to it. He didn't make the song - but he MADE it!
The description is a bit misleading. It is not established that it is a "Greek Song", since many different countries actually claim it's origin. Also, this is not the "original version" of the SONG, but rather the first RECORDED version of the song.
Disclaimer: I am unbiased as to which country it "belongs to" because I have no affiliation/relation/ancestry with any of them (I'm whiter than sour cream). I'm just pointing out that saying it is a "___ song" isn't necessary correct since it is actually a semi-controversial topic. Check the wikipedia page's discussion page if you don't believe me. Lots of fights there. ;)
@Xanofar Welcome to the world of Balkan music, where every song in every one of its languages most probably has another version with the same/similar music in a different language claiming to be the original.
@ChildOfTheEmperor What the fuck are you talking about?? An original is an original. The rest are either some nice covers or just shit copies like the one i guess you are talkin about.
@GhoulardiKris Im talking about Balkan music. If only you knew how many hundreds of songs Serbs, Croats and Bosnians, or Macedonians and Bulgarians share, who's origins are lost in time. Chill out, its the internet.
@ChildOfTheEmperor This song is not a Balkan song. Balkan music has nothing to do with bouzouki. It’s a fact that Misirlou was written as a «Rempetiko» song. Rempetiko is a music mixture of Greek folk and Minor Asia's music based on bouzouki . It’s most possible that balkans cover it after Dick Dale did! Who really wrote this song doesn't really matters anyway.. What matters after all is that the oldest recordings of Misirlou is played with bouzouki that is a Greek instrument and sang in Greek.

that s a nice cosmopolitan greek song of the easter medideraneo the traditional scene of greek culture untill the creation of the new nationalictics states of the ex vzantine and ottoman empires,,
@AtiaGal isn't the Double harmonic scale also a major scale? It's all in major, the only difference is that this version plays in the ionian mode in the beginning, and Double harmonic for the rest.
Are you sure you aren't thinking of the harmonic minor, which is buildt upon the dorian and the augmented tetrachords? this is buildt upon two of the same augmented tetrachords, which produces the Double Harmonic Major scale.
whats with all the hate they both gd dick dale thought so or he wouldnt have used it so whats all this bullshit i see thats irrelevant to the song go post bullshit in the bullshit thread SOMEWHERE ELSE
before any alliance is done. there should be some culpability acknowledged by the turkish gov and its military and religious leaders. many apologies, gifts of mercy with huge monetary compensation given out to the armenians, kurds and greeks and all around turkeys neighbours for the barbaric acts their religion and peoples have committed. Until that happens not a chance in hell. no sir. The turks are way too proud to admit they were wrong.
no comparison to dick dales version this is different with some similarities...later versions sound more exciting and less sombre than this.
Greeks and turks alliance? haha after the atrocities done to them by those barbaric peoples to them. how could they ever be freinds? no one likes them(turks) not even their other neighbours.
@vincenz55 So I guess that spending most of our money on military equipment and personel salaries is, havind in mind our state is already deep into debt and almost bankrupt, is prefferable to allying with them and moving on?

This is a greek song, the story is for a girl from Egypt, but a GREEK girl (hundred of thousands of Greeks lived there before Naser), as it says "yahabibi, yaleleli, I'll take you from Barbaria"
What a beautiful rendition of Miserli and the photos are beautiful! I love all rebetiko but Miserli is one of my favorites. Regarding its origin of the piece, was either originally Turkish or a composed by the Greeks who lived in Turkey. The word Miserlou (misirli, in Turkish) means Egyptian girl, "misr" being the Arabic word for Egyptian. However, it doesn't matter which ethnic group created the piece. The fact is that both share it.
osmankavcar. The fact is that modern greek people are generaly anti intellectual christian believers who are willing to reproduce their pety existence by teaching the same false beliefs and religiously-fear based, illusions to their poor children. I am sure that your society suffers from the same cancer. The only way to save global society is to rise against the enemies of reason. Something like a 'holy' war against racism, nationalism and generally anti-humanism.

greeks are known for their ancient wisdom..don´t know how such an idiot discussion would take place here....that make both Turks and Greeks look like idiots...don´t do that, I respect both cultures, and I´m tired of seeing that kind of stupidity happening everytime In comments also with brazilians and portuguese here in youtube...don´t do the same..and I agree with
osmankavcar . And greetings from Brazil, love that song.
Instead of arguing who "owns" this wonderful song, why not just understand our culture is VERY similar and probably a collaboration over the years. Despite religious differences, Greeks and Turks think alike, despite the religious differences! We are "told" to be enemies, so we never noticed how similar we really are; nor interested in knowing each other.
Let's not do this already. Think about how strong a Turkish & Greek alliance would be!
History is open to interpretations, but it is best to leave that part to historians. I think Greece's departure from Ottoman empire (as well as other Balkan nations) is more to do with Nationalist movement and Ottoman Empire was already weak before that happened.
Nobody needs anybody, but in this new world order everybody needs everybody. How would you know if Italy and France wouldn't turn on Greece in the future. They certainly did in World War I.
they dint even do it even in the secont war when greece figth against the hitler with the english and americans and they gave half of cyprus to the turkish!!!
same fate withe the serbians in cosovo!
anyway like i told you you stole our land and know you teaching us what?
people never own any land nor they are owned by any country one is for shure YOU and eye tell you ALL OF YOU are owned by a little but slowly gettin hot place like babe called planet earth or gaya or terra or what ever your language is may be tell her ma ma please let me do some love me too living in the past times. stupid . & what a pity. waste of aggrocultural surviving energy!
@osmankavcar I've always been put in a trance by this song. Magical and the true essence of beauty and love. nothing can touch my heart like this song. I am an american from Lithuania. Thank you so much for this gift!
@osmankavcar besides, now that the Europeans are imploding, the only bright thing on the horizon is the prospect of the Greeks and Turks cutting back on defense. Let's face it, the Euro was only ever a way to transfer wealth from the small weaker economies of Europe to Germany and France. Greece knows it now, and Turkey Might yet be spared the lesson. I'm pulling for the Mediterraneans...
@osmankavcar you are an idiot,we dont have commons,turks stoled greeks killed greeks they dont even have culture of respecting human rights,no actually they dont have culture,when they came at greek lands they were barbarian mogols the east culture is greek and the music is greek from smyrn and other places of east.
@osmankavcar when you say friends,the turks didnt change,even now violate aegean,they dont respect national treats about greeks at constatinoupole,they took by force the half cyprus at 1974 and now they trying to take thrace too,greek islands at 1996.It's easy to say all this bulshits and be modern but if turks want a friendship must first admit their faults and start respect us and then may have a chance,
@osmankavcar right... alliance my ass.... The Greeks has nothing to do with Turkish people except their both Balcanic people. Turkish are stupid and Greeks are gay, however we must admit their merits in philosophy, and the Turks merits.. I dunno.. in cutting off the heads of Christians?
@panaglaw : I have to disagree. How's that a problem? Obviously all Turks are some kind of related. Why forget the past? However, european people, for some reason, consider Turkey as an enemy, mainly because it's (or has been) muslim.
@panaglaw : Are you serious??? First of all, I'm not a nationalist (just saying). Then, you're talking as if some genetics could erase all the heritage of the turco-mongols. I'm an Uyghur, I can understand 80% of turkish, how about greeks? I mean, it's a fact that turks and mongols come from the altaï. Yeah sure, greeks and turks have mixed up, so what? The same blood? I don't think so. And you seem to ignore the fact that a lot of greek people HATE turks for some reason. We must get over that.
@panaglaw : And people from turkey are not homogeneous, you can find also persian ancestors as well. Plus, we can differenciate anatolian turks from the original turks than did come from central asia.
exactly.. the fears of western-centric Greeks who mıstrust Turkey can be overcome by emphasizing the true genetıc &cultural closeness between our peoples.. But if on the other hand nationalist circles keep inventing supposed 'mongol' cultural & genetic origins, this opportunity is lost..the common culture that unites Greek and Turks is a fact, I don't see how much uygur culture the Turks really share
@panaglaw What difference does it make who is related to whom? I am half-Kurdish and half-Swedish, but I love all kinds of music and cultures: Greek, Turkish, Azeri mugham, Arab music, Sufi music, ranging from Persia on down to Qawaali music. We are all brothers on this planet and we all have souls. And it's the "soul" music of various people that will ultimately bring us all together.
@osmankavcar go out of cyprus, get hands off from our islands, stop overflying greek territory, intuding the Athens FIR, open all greek churches in turkey and first Agia Sofia, allow the Kurds to realize their basic right to have a state. Then, after all that I can say we may start connsidering about your proposal! Which doesn't mean we may have a result on it...
@hallucinogen74 actually kurds in turkey don't want their own states anymore just to have schools in their own language and things as such.. also me being a christian in turkey have to say that it is a misunderstanding that the greek churches are closed in turkey.. actually all greek churches are open and active but they do not have enough people to fill the churches.. though i have to agree with you about Agia Sofia, that is such a shame yet it was done before the turkish state..
@osmankavcar it's sooo amazing,but I was thinking excactly the same days ago..the reason was a turkish series,been played right now from the greek tv...they all love it here....as for me,so many things ,manners,virtues,feelings are incredibly alike...remind me my grandparents that much...might be my pontian roots...for sure...who the hell wants us in perpetual fighting and hatred.? So I thought the very same...the two countries would be unbeatable together,and the army weapons useless!!!
@osmankavcar Can't be friend with someone doesn't repsect you...and we are not "told" to be enemies,we are enemies because they behave in such way!Maybe not people in turkey,but they don't do anything to stop their goverment to stop behaving like this.

i live in izmir now.and i know it is turkish.mısırlı means egyptian.how greeks call the egypt in greek language?egypt was turkish territory before english occupation and it is naturally we have some musics and songs that called from.
In greek Egypt is called Αίγυπτος (Egiptos), but you have to take into account that many Greeks, Armenians and members of other peoples used the turkish language in their everyday life (either they wanted or not). What exactly don't you understand?
turkish is your brain. Its a greek "rembetiko" song that has roots as a melody from the byzantine music. but of course people without history make history from others.
Awaesome! Just transports to me into another world..

osmankavcar. The fact is that modern greek people are generaly anti intellectual christian believers who are willing to reproduce their pety existence by teaching the same false beliefs and religiously-fear based, illusions to their poor children. I am sure that your society suffers from the same cancer. The only way to save global society is to rise against the enemies of reason. Something like a 'holy' war against racism, nationalism and generally anti-humanism.

Instead of arguing who "owns" this wonderful song, why not just understand our culture is VERY similar and probably a collaboration over the years. Despite religious differences, Greeks and Turks think alike, despite the religious differences! We are "told" to be enemies, so we never noticed how similar we really are; nor interested in knowing each other.
Let's not do this already. Think about how strong a Turkish & Greek alliance would be!

History is open to interpretations, but it is best to leave that part to historians. I think Greece's departure from Ottoman empire (as well as other Balkan nations) is more to do with Nationalist movement and Ottoman Empire was already weak before that happened.
Nobody needs anybody, but in this new world order everybody needs everybody. How would you know if Italy and France wouldn't turn on Greece in the future. They certainly did in World War I.
Just think about it, please.

@osmankavcar besides, now that the Europeans are imploding, the only bright thing on the horizon is the prospect of the Greeks and Turks cutting back on defense. Let's face it, the Euro was only ever a way to transfer wealth from the small weaker economies of Europe to Germany and France. Greece knows it now, and Turkey Might yet be spared the lesson. I'm pulling for the Mediterraneans...

@osmankavcar when you say friends,the turks didnt change,even now violate aegean,they dont respect national treats about greeks at constatinoupole,they took by force the half cyprus at 1974 and now they trying to take thrace too,greek islands at 1996.It's easy to say all this bulshits and be modern but if turks want a friendship must first admit their faults and start respect us and then may have a chance,

@panaglaw : I have to disagree. How's that a problem? Obviously all Turks are some kind of related. Why forget the past? However, european people, for some reason, consider Turkey as an enemy, mainly because it's (or has been) muslim.

@Rednospunk
it's alright to disagree with me, it's not an easy subject for nationalists
but now things look very hopeful for Greek-Turkish friendship and brotherhood
especially that Turkey begins to question the legend of «migration from central asia», with the help of genetics (Ecevit Kiliç)
you like it or not, we share one blood, I wonder until when Turks will shun this fact and prefer to invent fantastic attachmentw to mongoloid people?
panaglaw 1 year ago
@panaglaw : Are you serious??? First of all, I'm not a nationalist (just saying). Then, you're talking as if some genetics could erase all the heritage of the turco-mongols. I'm an Uyghur, I can understand 80% of turkish, how about greeks? I mean, it's a fact that turks and mongols come from the altaï. Yeah sure, greeks and turks have mixed up, so what? The same blood? I don't think so. And you seem to ignore the fact that a lot of greek people HATE turks for some reason. We must get over that.
Rednospunk 1 year ago
@panaglaw : And people from turkey are not homogeneous, you can find also persian ancestors as well. Plus, we can differenciate anatolian turks from the original turks than did come from central asia.

@Rednospunk
exactly.. the fears of western-centric Greeks who mıstrust Turkey can be overcome by emphasizing the true genetıc &cultural closeness between our peoples.. But if on the other hand nationalist circles keep inventing supposed 'mongol' cultural & genetic origins, this opportunity is lost..the common culture that unites Greek and Turks is a fact, I don't see how much uygur culture the Turks really share

@panaglaw What difference does it make who is related to whom? I am half-Kurdish and half-Swedish, but I love all kinds of music and cultures: Greek, Turkish, Azeri mugham, Arab music, Sufi music, ranging from Persia on down to Qawaali music. We are all brothers on this planet and we all have souls. And it's the "soul" music of various people that will ultimately bring us all together.

@osmankavcar go out of cyprus, get hands off from our islands, stop overflying greek territory, intuding the Athens FIR, open all greek churches in turkey and first Agia Sofia, allow the Kurds to realize their basic right to have a state. Then, after all that I can say we may start connsidering about your proposal! Which doesn't mean we may have a result on it...

@hallucinogen74 actually kurds in turkey don't want their own states anymore just to have schools in their own language and things as such.. also me being a christian in turkey have to say that it is a misunderstanding that the greek churches are closed in turkey.. actually all greek churches are open and active but they do not have enough people to fill the churches.. though i have to agree with you about Agia Sofia, that is such a shame yet it was done before the turkish state..

In greek Egypt is called Αίγυπτος (Egiptos), but you have to take into account that many Greeks, Armenians and members of other peoples used the turkish language in their everyday life (either they wanted or not). What exactly don't you understand?
