Saudi Band Al Farabi Brings Back Arabic Poetry



Al Farabi is a an awesome Saudi band that sings about the same things celebrated Arab poets wrote about ages ago. So that means that are not in the love business--they mean poetry and the Gulf is the right place for this kind of music.

Hoewver Al Farabi made a very cleaver choice, they choose a poem that all Arabs adore, about how the big Arab world is one country for all of us. This is how you get in the hearts of all Arabs in the East, West and in the Middle. Preserving the legacy of Arab poetry is not easy task, but inviting new generation to taste it.

Making some modern music to grab the attention of the young YouTube generation. This band is kind of cool, not becasue of the western sounding music, not becasue of the clearly Arab lyrics, but becasue they brought them together in harmony. Those younger than 30 years old band members are to be applauded. There are seven of them and they all hail from the city of Jaddah.
