Marya, I think you are exquisite. I am a bit weary of the contemporary styles that predominate youtube. While many of those dancers are excellent, indeed, your style takes me back to my early memories of why I became so entranced with this lovely art form. Thank you for the pleasure.
In America any music surviving longer than 50 years is considered "classical", but yes, it's still beledi.
In the 1990's, we were lucky if anything survived longer than a week on the Top 20 Countdown and now it comes down to how many times a song gets downloaded on iTunes in one day.
In the end, a very small number of songs will be remembered as well as this one.
