Kathem need no introduction, there are those who love this Iraqi charmer and there are those who really love the legend. I happen to know a lot of those people who seem to enjoy the classics of Kathem Al Saher, the rock star of Arabia.
Other than his music, Kathem is known in the business, as one of the nicest dudes in the business as he is the most diplomatic person. He has really done it all, and he performed and sold tickets in just about every spot in the world. He took his local Iraqi style and ruled over that school for ages.
When he was done, he moved to Lebanon and started doing those light romantic songs that mesmerize just about everyone with a pulse. And once he got that down, we are talking about mid 90s. He found Syrian poet Nizar Qabany and the magic started, their stronger and earliest collaboration was this song below about the school of love. A tale like no other. This song has become an essential song for all of Kathem's concerts.
