M'sel Maige M'dong Thead - Poev Vannary

A classic Khmer oldie from singer and guitar player Poev Vannary, a cover of the Carpenters song "Yesterday Once More". She was an especially big fan of American folk music, and she performed many covers of these songs, re-writing some of the lyrics into her native Khmer.

You can hear some of her music here -

Thanks for sharing ! It remind me of the year 1970 - 1975, I miss all my friends

who enjoyed this song during that time !

like the song since 1975 when i was a student in Phnom-penh. i heard it again from a girl during Khemr-Rouge time when she finished work from the rice field. it was very romantic. i hope the girl is still survived. To all young students before 1975.

Thank you very much for Pov vannary songs.

i love this song. great video, jeff!

[wlmarvin]

but her spirit is still alive, and will never end...

I support her very much, and i really inspire & admire her. Same to Sinn Sisamouth and Ros Sereysothea. They still exist, but not physically existing. Just spiritually existing.

Excellent Carpenters' interpretation. Great touch on the Khmer version. Good voice. Thanks for posting.
