Mix of the week: non-English edition
Published by Becky S September 1st, 2004 in artsI never got my hands on Special K’s Jaojoby CD, so the non-English mix of the week is, sadly, salegy-free. But it’s fun anyway, and there’s a secret last tune (think “Yiddish melodies in swing”).
- Amr Diab – Amarain (yeah, it’s a repeat)
- Gogol Bordello – Occurrence on the Border
- Klezmatics – Overture from Jews with Horns
- Beatrice Bonifassi – Attila Marcel (from the Triplets of Belleville)
- Carla Bruni – J’en Connais
- Cesaria Evora – Carnaval De São Vicente
- Eliades Ochoa - Píntate los labios María
- Angelique Kidjo – Mondjuba
The mix of the week is here and in the “featuring” section of the right-hand sidebar.

I am not sure if I heard it right and was wondering if you could confirm…is one of the songs about Jews and/or matza balls?
This is what I heard: The last recording is from “The American Jewish Hour” radio show, which was sponsored by the world’s largest matza baker.
What makes ‘Special K’ special?
Is someone jealous because he doesn’t have an adjective in front of his nickname?
Um Clair, how can you query the specialness of Special K when you have not answered the question (or let Becky post your hot picture) “What makes Clair hot?” How about this for your tagline: Alle ist klar.
Who knew Mick Jagger’s chickie could sing?
I assume you’re talking about Carla Bruni. She’s Mick Jagger’s chickie? Ew!
My hotness cannot be adequately defined by photos or words, Sassy J. It is really an experience, one that is desired by many, feared by some, and understood by few.
Clair, are you drunk on saffron beer?
