As good as it gets; Mahmoud is an Ethiopian icon. The tenor solo at 3:20 is brilliant -- even Mahmoud acknowledges it. Too bad he didn't push it a bit further. Thanks for posting this.

Krimpen - he is indeed talented. The gist of the song goes essentially like this: "I simply have no words to describe you for you are perfect beyond perfection; your beauty is exquisite; your eyes, like constellations; the shape of your lips, amazing; your smile reveals beautiful teeth; your dark hair drapes over your shoulders; your sleek nose on a dark face set on a shapely body," etc. This is typical of Ethiopian love ballads -- it's an ode to a woman's beauty and a man's submission to it.
