This song is NOT an animals original. they only made it popular. "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" is a song written by Bennie Benjamin, Gloria Caldwell and Sol Marcus for the singer/pianist Nina Simone, who first recorded it in 1964. The animals didn't perform it until '65.
Darn, this isn't the Arabic version. I'm so used to that one that I like it over this. But this is still good. Just goes to show her many linguistic talents. ;)
@ealkass Her real name is Eti her grandmother called her Ester Her Stage name is Ishtar - her band is called Alabina - Ishtar (Alabina) She is Jewish and is from Israel
This is also excellent performance.
Its good to hear and know , songs can be sung by others on in different ways.

@rdcsfd ...I know that, but 95% of the people know that The Animals made this song famous.

I like the male singer's voice. He has that raspy sound, or something, that gives the song a special "feel".
