Nelly Makdessi, the Lebanese beauty and pop singer wanted the people of Egypt to know they are on her mind so she covered an old Egyptian classic. Nelly choose to cover the all popular Shadya song Ya Habibty Ya Masr, the song of choice for the revolutionaries. Nelly is one of few non Egyptian singers to release a song in time of the Egyptian revolution.
Nelly Makdessi has been working on covering older Arabic songs to proof she has what it takes to sing, so this might be an attempt to bring Nelly to the news. But the Lebanese singer who is a brilliant show girl loved Egypt, it's the biggest Arab market. As far as the song goes, Nelly did a good job in covering this song. I think she has the voice hands down, and the time is right. Now, I can safely say that I look forward to her new album for the oldies.
Nelly Makdsi Ya Habibty Ya Masr نيللي مقدسي يا حبيبتي يا مصر
