Actually, the song is called "Ha Laila Ghair"/ ها ليله غير by Miami. "Ah Ya Jamalo"/ أه يا جمالوا is on the same album. It is a good song but not this particular song. The album is called "Miami 2004"...you can find it on amazon.
Oh HELL YES! I'm so glad my bellydancing homegirl Khadijah is on here :) I was very lucky to learn my Khaliji from her, and with her knowledge and positive attitude about Middle Eastern dance she is a wonderful part of our Denver community, and I know this girl is gonna go FAR beyond that.
She's absolutely beautiful and fluid. I love Miami and her interpretation of their music takes my breath away. I love how knowledgable she is about the dance form.
Oh I love this!!! is the entire show available somewhere??? Good job Khadija, I loved the performance already, and thought "wow, the Gulf is so much in between Arabia and Asia, culture-wise, taking some of the African Arab style of dancing, yet incorporating Asian hand movements like from Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Persia". and then the lady elaborated on this :) rare to see autenticism and knowledge as opposed to myth and fantasy in Western emissions on bellydancing! thanks so much!
I would think so... but I would also direct you to speak to khadijah directly as she can give you more on the dance from a first hand perspective.. she does have a website where she can be reached
no but she did have the opportunity to live in the Jeddah area for a number of years as a child. I will pass on your comment as I think she would appreciate it. :-)
so Parveneh, I tend to see a lot of khaleegy dancers more subdued then this. Should we be focusing more on getting into the rythym and not so restrained. I'm speaking as if I were to teach this to my female students. Obviously for my males ones we'll be twirling the saif or asaya
Ok last time I swear, haha Considering the lyrics, which i've never paid attention to before, this song SHOULD be 'Ah Ya Jamalo'... However, almost everywhere it's listed as what I said above, Amazon, iTunes, etc...so I guess for the sake of getting ahold of it, use 'Ha Laila Ghair'. I'm done now... :)

She lived in Saudi Arabia for 13 years of her life, spent her childhood growing up there so her knowledge is first hand.
Oh I love this!!!

thanks so much!
I know what you mean... I found it on Amazon as an mp3 under Ha Laila Ghair but I notice that the lyrics say Ah ya jamalo lol
That was amazing. Khaleegi = love! It's nice to see the dance done so well.
This is beautiful, and the interview is so informative--thanks so much for posting! Hope I can see Khadijah in person someday!
This song is by miami band, its called ah ya jamalo
I agree with you I was there and it showed me the difference between a dance and just a performance!!!!
several people have asked about the music... I asked and was told it is "Ya a gemelo "
by Miami
we know this already but thank you so much for your input!! :-)
I will pass on your compliment and your request for a workshop. she did one here this past weekend and it was awesome.
I would think so... but I would also direct you to speak to khadijah directly as she can give you more on the dance from a first hand perspective.. she does have a website where she can be reached
thank you for this beautiful dance. I have never seen khaleeji done so well! Are you ever comming to the mid west to teach? (Workshop?)
no but she did have the opportunity to live in the Jeddah area for a number of years as a child. I will pass on your comment as I think she would appreciate it. :-)
very lovely dancing! wish there was not so much artistic interpretation with the camera work--just let us see her dance!!! she is beautiful.
Hi, I found it on Amazon but only as a download. So I had to download it to my computer.but you can burn it or load it onto your mp3 player too
what a great teacher

Thank you for that information :)
