This is definitely is a lot older than Sayyed Darwish . The Greek Rebetiko is a treasure of Byzantine music(The ancient written middle eastern music of the great mathematicians and scientists who wrote a music treasure to the western world like Al-Farabi, IBn sina(Avicenna),Zuriab among others. The burning of the world's largest libraries Of Alexandria , Baghdad and Constantinople and Damascus a thousand years ago by the Moghuls (Genghis Khan and Hulagu) was one of world's greatest atrocities in history, nothing survived, especially music. But the Byzantine monasteries in Greece and Turkey kept many transcripts and oral music alive! So the Greek Rebetiko version is more likely the earlier recording of this haunting melody...but the origin of the music is more likely Arabic or Persian most likely Persian music!

It's called hejaz scale if you are interested

Mohab Alrouby is there more scales like it that I could look up and learn?

@@AdventuresThings well, arabic music mostly uses only 8 scales: 1)"Ajam" which is just the major western scale. 2)"nahawand" which is the minor scale. 3)"kurd" this is the frygian mode in western music. 4)"hejaz" the one used in this song. These four are all playable on guitar or piano. the other four require quarter note intervals, they are called 5)"saba" very sad scale sounds like a mother crying her dead son. 6)"rast" don't know much about it. 7)"bayate" this one is considered to be the father of all arabic music scales. 8)"sekah" very dancing and full of soul. These last four can be played on violin or any un-freted instrument.

Mohab Alrouby thank you very much for this. I love this sound and these scales will be fun to learn thank you again

There's a difference between taking and old forgotten song and making a it into a modern version and blatantly ripping a song without changing it and adding disgusting prattling.

To be fair, Dick Dale was half Lebanese and learnt to play middle-eastern instruments as a kid. That very influence helped him develop his style and surf rock.

Dick Dale also literally gave it the same name. So it's not like he was hiding the cover

I agree on the beautiful work. Just not only travels it us to Egypt but also to Greece and Turkey, as many monuments, statues and clothing represent the greek identity, as well as the picture of kemal ataturk represents the turkish culture.

I AGREE WITH YOU .i VISIT EGYPT MANY TIMES I SPOKE WITH VARIOUS PEOPLE ABOUT THIS SONG AND THEY ALL TOLD ME IS GREEK

Greek culture comes from Middle Eastern and African culture.

Can any Greek explain, if this song is originally Greek, how would the name be "Misirlou"? "Misirlou" means in Turkish "Egyptian", it is not in Greek, not in Arabic. If it was written in Greek its name sould be "Αιγύπτιος". In Turkish you call country name and add "lı" (pronounced "lou") for "from". Mısırlou is "Mısırlı" in Turkish. "Mısır" is the name of the country "Egypt" and "Mısırlı" means "Egyptian" in Turkish. Only Turks say "Misirlou" for "Egyptian" not Greeks, not Arabs or Jews.

@@alperkaraoguz song was likely cultivated during turkish rule of greece

@@alperkaraoguz Copied from another post: The fact that the word misirlu is not greek doesnt mean that the song and the people that wrote it arent Greeks. Greeks were living for many years in parts of today's turkey ( for example Pontos, Kapadokia and in minor asia. Especially in Minor asia cities like smirni ( izmir) were Greek. Just mentioning in case u didnt know). But since 1914 Greeks were forced with the worst way ever to leave their homes because Kemal Ataturk said that we had to exchange population ( turks in Greece would go to turkey and Greeks in turkey would go to Greece). I dont want to analyze the way turks treated Greeks bcoz thats not the point of the comment. So many Greeks came to Greece and one of them who was living in minor asia composed this song. Its logic to use some words with ottoman heritage when you live near to them for so long. So , Greek composer ,Greek song with an ottoman word for a title.

Even in classical Bengali music

That is true what you are saying. However, some people believe that the composers and musicians at that time of Sayed Darwish was working together and got influenced by each other when it comes to not only melodies, but also names, lyrics and ideas. Since Sayed Darwish was from Alexandria ( the upper Egypt), there was a lot of Greek and Turkish artists and musicians there as it is not far from Alexandria where they traveled a lot with boats. They played together and mixed music together a long time before they started to record anything. However, I dont think Sayyed Darwish made up the name, but the influence by "Egyptian girl" was from Egypt as they traveled to the borders as artists and got influenced by each other in many ways. Its very interesting. Lets leave it to our fantasy :D

I don't see where it explicitly states the roots are Arabic? Yes, it originates from Egypt or Asia Minor, but the Byzantines (Greeks) owned Egypt for quite a long time and Asia Minor for even longer. Then there's also the fact the Ottoman's (Turks) also owned Egypt (all be it from the 16th century onwards) and they've had a foothold in Asia minor since the 13th century. Whilst this obviously doesn't mean either of those civilisations produced the music, neither does it mean Arabic people produced the music. It's one of the many mysteries lost to time, so how about YOU either stop spreading disinformation or provide proof for your claims. Mine are obviously from Wikipedia, which I presume you've read.

Bint Misr *Egyptian girl* or *Ya Amal* is an arabic song composed by *Sayed Darwish* *in 1916* . in 1927 there was a Greek rebetiko composition of this song influenced by Middle-Eastern music under the name *Misirlou* . There are also traditional Arabic [ belly dancing ] Jewish [ *klezmer* ], Armenian and Turkish versions of the song Misirlou .... The song gained worldwide popularity through Dick Dale's 1962 American surf rock version *he was of Lebanese descent from his father* , originally titled *Miserlou* , which popularized the song in Western popular culture ....

Great... جميل

Jelica, you are music to my ears! I am now in my 70's, and as a child I remember my grandfather (born c1880) humming this tune, which he was taught by his Grandmother. He told me it went back to old Smyrenia and back beyond that to ancient days, possibly Babelonian empire, which fits in with your comment. He was not happy when in the 1960's the Greeks tried to claim it for their very own from the 1920's period of resettlement.
