Iraqis had a hit song about oranges few in the mid 2000--the guy behind the song just passed away this year. But the Syrian Farid Al Atrach sang for the lemon a long time ago in the 60s maybe? Then 2012, Ramy Ayach wanted to do a song of this nature so he asked Mr. Salim Assaf to write up a song about an apple. The apple would be a reference to the woman.
Ramy talks about summer apples that tends to be fresh...and he is using humor maybe to try to drown the critics of this song. I have heard him say, the apple is healthy, and then he says some like it green. all are funny, but not sure how women would think about being likened to a fruit? Is this is proper in this day and age?
I have to admit that I like the song, it's pretty cool and dance inducing, Ramy sounds really excited as he performs the song. He has been talking to the media whom he invited to his home about this song. The team behind the song have used their own voices as chorus. I like the baladi beat and the throwback the song brings.
In other news, Ramy was in Morocco for a wedding where he sang....he says the audience were in upward of 1800 attendees.
