Sadness ... is somthing rife from the daily life in Iraq , thats why I think Adel is playing music about pain that reflects the life we are living in . But even though .. I think life has both sadness and happiness wherever you go , so we can look for happiness and even its so few but we should try to enlarge it and thats why I'd like to say that : , for me , I'd love to play and hear HAPPY SONGS that give hope and strength inside me so as to continue with this hard life , we can light a candle inside a dark room better than saying damn we can see nothing in this dark room . Regards to all people who worked here and made that amazing place . Zaid

Good job, guys!!!! Keep on the good work!!! These videos are very important for the world to see your reality. I'm a brazilian musician and I have an arabic descent. (you can see by my last name : Gemmal) I just wanted you to know that this act is very important to persuade the world's public opinion. Don't stop for as long as it's necessary!!!

To whoever is running this blog, hi, I'm an Iraqi and I'm also an old-time pal of Ausama and his brother (M) and I've been to their house more times than I can remember, I have left to Jordan nine months earlier and I would like to get back in touch with them, those videos are awesome. I have a blog too and am interested in similar amateur filmmaking efforts too, I have done a few things that you can see on my YouTube page, just search for theak33 in YouTube. Plz just deliver this message to them. Best, AK

Thanks so much for these videos. Many good wishes to you all. I'm an old refugee - that is, post-punk. If you'd like to see what one of your new fans was doing 27 years ago (the girl with the boyish haircut on the first live song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ffmn2-l37Dk

I've been watching all of these videos and I have to say, this one struck me as being the most poignant. With all of the political and religious propaganda being shoved down everyone's throats these days, it's refreshing to see something honest and real.. just people who want to live normal and prosperous lives, like all human beings. I hope you all keep up on the musical stuff, creativity is such a positive thing to channel anger, sadness, and discontent into. It's overlooked many times by the powerful but is such a strong voice to make a difference with. Keep up all the good work!
