Many of you (too many) sent me the video clip of Julia Butrus' new song. I felt that it fails at every level. As is well-known, SSNP poet Ghassan Matar composed the lyrics from the words of Hasan Nasrallah's speeches during the Israeli war on Lebanon. The music is characterless, and the words just don't flow. Good night. Having said that: I like Julia Butrus.
