Dancing to Misirlou

What’s the story behind this song?

It’s a song about love and longing.
A folk song from the Eastern Mediterranean
region, likely originating in Egypt.
The title comes from the Turkish word Misirli,
which is the feminine form of the word
“Egyptian”.
While the song’s original author is unknown,
Arabic, Greek, and Jewish musicians were
playing it by the 1920’s.
The first known recording of this song is a
1927 Greek rebetiko/tsifteteli composition by
Nikos Roubanis, with vocal by Tetos
Demetriades.

Love this ancient classic tune 🎶
Happy Dancing 💃
