Khaled Selim Stares @ Your Soul

When the melody is soft, the music is relaxed, and the singer is not running around, you are able to tell the quality of the voice singer, as the raw material form which their music is made is exhibited without distraction and without a cover. That's why Soul and R&B have their fans, because it lets listeners have have a peek at the singers' soul.

In Mawhoum, Egyptian super star Khaled Selim goes back to the basics and show us a rare side of him, his softer side where the music is the background, and his voice takes the lead. As a singer he performed in the Egyptian opera, making him one of the few singers to do so and serving as a testimony to the quality of his voice.

Khaled's previous music videos was upbeat and energizing, this one is a lot more mellow, and Khaled gets to show some of his acting chops (he also acts) I like the vintage feel the music video has, the words and lyrics are writing in some shots. You feel that Khaled is staring at you and addressing you in this song in a magical way. The dark affects serve the song well as this is a person still haunting be the shadows in his past.
