While Libyan leader Gaddafi may be reviled by many of his own
people and the international community, he's enjoying an unexpected surge of
popularity - as a music video star.
YouTube - Muammar Gaddafi - Zenga Zenga Song - Noy Alooshe Remix + Download
The clip was created by Israeli musician and DJ Noy Alooshe and appears to be wildly popular in the Arab world despite its origins in the Jewish state.
A remix of a rambling 75-minute speech Gaddafi delivered on Tuesday, set
to dance music and featuring the strongman alongside footage of two
gyrating girls, has gone viral on the Internet....racked up almost half a
million views on the video-sharing website YouTube since it was posted three
days ago. Called "Zenga Zenga," the music video mixes Gaddafi's quotes with
club beats, using lines in which he vows to fight "inch by inch, home by home,
alley by alley" as the chorus for the song.
Alooshe also posted online a version of the spoof hit without the scantily clad
dancing girls to take into account sensibilities in the Muslim world.
