Need a Good Cry? Try This Song



Kathem Al Saher, the ever impressive Iraqi musician has close to a 1000 song to his name. He did all styles, he sang for his loved ones, his mother and his father too. He sang for Iraq, and Palestine. And pretty much anything the people who make his fan base care about.

But his treasured songs are often dealing with romance, and breakup. We first came to like him with this style of heartache and the dark days of love. This particular song of his deals with the absence of love. You know when your loved one changed on you all of a sudden and you have no idea what to make of it. "Not Your Usual Laugh", Mo Dih'ktak is one of those bittersweet songs.

While this song was never made into a music video, someone put on a montage of some older clips and came out with a music video for this lovely song. Kathim does a great job here making you feel what he feels, makes you live his agony and his dilemma.
