      When he’ sings “a place for the end” I always tear up for some reason, it’s crazy, this song hits hard. So relatable for anyone who’s experienced heart break and regret

      Agreed. Great on official recordings, but he’s so often out of tune live or acoustic. The wrong notes aren’t massively different. It’s so so small a difference, but I can’t not hear it. Incredibly distracting, and I can’t get past it. 😅 Will continue listening to the regular recordings though. I enjoy those :)

    I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress
    When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand
    But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress
    With my father in a casket, I had no plans, yeah
    And I left the footprints, the mud stained on the carpet
    And it hardened like my heart did when you left town
    But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant
    Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around
    But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
    And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
    While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me
    Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true
    So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me
    From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you
    But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
    And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time
    And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce
    But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I'll play my part
    I was Cleopatra, I was taller than the rafters
    But that's all in the past love, gone with the wind
    Now a nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guestroom
    It's a bed and a bathroom
    And a place for the end
    I won't be late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life
    And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time

    I’ve been missing this song. It is my favorite song by far, but it appears they took the music video off of YT? Is this true? Is the music video still here cuz I can’t find it anywhere. This is just a little emergency so get back to me if you know TY! I haven’t had it come on to my playlist in weeks so it made me wonder where it is. Now I’m worried cuz I haven’t been able to find it anywhere on YT

    I'm Egyptian, A COPTIC CHRISTIAN EGYPTIAN, I shout that out loud because we are the most pure blooded Egyptians out there and that's not only my opinion that's what Egyptologists, Historians and Scientists also agreed on , and I tell you that every word that Bassem Youssef said is right and I totally agree with him.
    Yes Egypt had lots of mixed cultures throughout its history like for example: Greeks, Romans and Arabs, but the Egyptian blood didn't mix and change that much and that's because for centuries we Egyptians had a golden tradition rule to marry our cousins, and that tradition is still present until now especially in Upper Egypt(from Assiut to Aswan), Although that tradition seems silly and bad from a scientific biological point of view, but that doesn't matter, silly or not we kept that tradition of marrying our cousins for centuries and that helped us to preserve our pure Egyptian blood not mixed as long as we could, and the result is what you see now and that is Modern Egyptians looks typical to their Ancient Egyptian Ancestors, just look at my skin color and Bassem Youssef's skin color we are almost the same although he is a Muslim who was born and lived in Cairo and I am a Coptic Christian who was born and lived in Luxor and there is almost a 1000 km distance between us, doesn't that tell you a thing or two about who Ancient Egyptians were and what they looked like?
    With all due respect for all the Black people and all the other ethnicities out there, but we Egyptians are special very special, WE ARE NOT Black or White or Yellow, Not Europeans or Africans or Asians, Not Assyrians or Persians or Israelites or Nubians or Greeks or Romans or Arabs or French or Italians or Germans or British or Turkish or Ukrainians, Not Middle Easterners or Caucasians or Mediterraneans or Levants or Amazigh or Berbers or even North Africans.
    WE ARE
    EGYPTIANS,
    WE ARE
    VERY UNIQUE!

      And second is this comment is 10 month’s old, and that was the time when Afrocentrics were attacking our own culture and heritage all over the social media when the movie black Cleopatra was first introduced on Netflix, so I had to defend my culture by sending this message all over the social media and especially on CZcams, so whenever I found any video talking about Cleopatra even if it was just a normal song I had to send my message to the world through it.
      I AM A REVOLUTIONIST, and that’s how we send our messages.
      That’s what we call a CREATIVE CHAOS, it may make no sense but it has a purpose.
      Lastly those who judge the book by it’s cover are the real trolls, and you just did that.
