Let's see what happens when a singer is forced to leave his own country because of a suffocating and religious atmosphere! As he faces the free world, all of a sudden he realizes he can sing whatever he wants!
This song released almost three decades ago …
Song: One Thousand and One Nights
Singer: Shadmehr Aghili
Lyrics
I want to cry on this helpless night!
I'm looking for you,
Looking for someone who supports me
I look for that heart who knows loneliness
And my loving hands are full of begging
My “ one thousand and one nights” were full of your voice
I cried every night just for you
My “ one thousand and one nights” were full of your voice
I cried every night just for you
Your voice breaks my glass silence
In my romantic sky, your poetry flies
With you, my black heart is the color of the sky
The lump in my throat breaks by the love songs
My “ one thousand and one nights” were full of your voice
I cried every night just for you
My “ one thousand and one nights” were full of your voice
I cried every night just for you
Now let's see what happens when an artist suddenly finds himself free and wants to show a religious dictator, which restricted him for years, not allowing his works to be spread legally , and forcing him to leave his homeland forever… what he can do, and what he is capable of. He will be the opposite they made him be all those years…
This Song is from 2 decades ago! First song Shadmehr released after leaving Iran called Popcorn! He named the song popcorn to say I won't care about anything, not love, not nothing!
