Rock El Casbah

Rachid Taha, the French Algerian singer that gave us his eternally hauting rendition of Ya Rayah, perhaps the most beautiful Arabic song ever made, has made an Arabic version of The Clash' Rock The Casbah. I just love this. It's a perfect full circle.

And while he's at it, doing Arabic remakes of 80ies classics, how about a version of The Human Leagues' The Lebanon?
