I had two favorite artists were Angelique Kidjo and Baaba Maal. I really like American music and Egyptian music. But I like American music 51% and Egyptian music 49%. But I still like it. In American music I like country. In Egyptian music I like Angelique Kidjo and Baaba Maal. I would have to rank American music the best by alot. That's so true.
The egyptian music is so cool!It is so exotic!It made me feel as if I was in egyt.Our music in america is way different. I am toataly into this culture.The music has words and diffrent tunes to different songs.It is just in another language.Other than that it was awesome!
egypt
Egypt music is different because they do not use the same instruments that we use like guitar, piano, violin or any other of our instruments. I do not like there music because I like country music.
king tut was my favorite because it was so interesting
ok this music is the wierdest music ever.but I still think it is interesting.but I tink I could sirioslyget hooked on this.although its real different.I never liked insteramental music.but this is WAY WAY different.the song that I probley like the most i s called Further Jorneys Into Pure Egypt:by Sabla Tolo 2.It is just insturamental.I LOVE IT!
I think egyptian music is awsome.
It is so detailed and exciting. It has a lot of rythms and beats.I think both egyptian and american music is interesting. But egyptian is so more alive and fast going.
king tut video
my favorite video was the one about king tut.I have always been interested in king tut and his death.The scientists have maybe found a soulution to this mystery.The scientists found a hole in his skull.They also found that some of his knee cap was missing.There are endless posibilites on how he died from just these two pieces of info.how cool is this?!
i think the mummy movie's were cool.
I think that is very difrent from what I listen to I like it though it's a change to here a difrent laugage and not know what there saying. Yet you can still get a feeling for what there saying and some things you just can't under stand for the most part. It's just things I have no idea what there are meaning. But, it's still cool to get felling to what the Egyptions listen to. I really glade Ms.Nanna has given us the chance to see this kind of things that went on in our wworld.

i realy didnt listen to a hole ton of music. it was kinda strange. im a country music attic. I really dont like the voices or the instruments they used. i dont think its very cool music.
Egyptian Music
Today I listened to some egyptian music. It was way different from anything I had ever listed to before. It had a lot od instramental parts and when they sang most the time i could not tell what they were saying. In the songs to me it seemed like they were telling a story or how they
felt.
It is so much different than American music because it is mosstley instramental and it doesn't many words.{usually} I like it because it tells a story and how they feel threw instraments. We on the other hand use words. Words aren't bad i just think it is uniqe to use instraments. Personaly i don't mind listening to it.
EGYPT
EGYPT'S MUSIC IS DIFFERENT BECAUSE IT JUST DOSNT SOUND THE SAME AND IT SOUNDS MORE CULTURAL! THE MUSIC IS REALLY COOL AND IS A LOT DIFFERENT THAN THE MUSIC IN THE UNITED STATES!
Egypt Music
I like all of the music it was up beet and fun.The people who wrote the music were realy good
tuts miserey
It has been a mistery how king Tut died for years. But now now specialist are gettng some ideas they have looked at King Tuts skeleton and noticed two things. One is that king tut doesn't have a knee cap so they think that someone hit him really hard in the knne and it caused him so much pain he eventualy died. The other is they think a murderer came up and stabbed him in the head, because he has a hole in his skull.
I like all of the of the moives.
Animal mummies
Are people going crazy or what.Some people spend over 20 thousand dollars just to have there pets mummafied.They have mumafied cats, dogs, and even small rodent tipe animals. I think that you woild have to love your animal alot to do somthing like that I probably would not do that for my animals. I would probably just bary my animals in some place in my yard. Thats what I did to my hamster Stormy.
Mummybize
I think the mummy one with the cats is interesting. I do not really like how they mummiphize them, because I like cats, But I thought it was interesting.
But I still don't get why people make mummys. Even after waching those movies. It is so interesting, but creeps me out!
King Tut's Tomb
The King Tut's Tomb movie on National Geographic web page was really cool! It was also really, really gross! It was really cool how they saw the hole in the back of King Tut's head. The part when the people cut his leg open and the blood went pouring all over the place was the grossest part of that awesome movie. I liked all the movies, but that one was the very belt!!!!
what happend to tut
what hppend to tut you say some say that tut was killed in battle others say that tut bled to much from battle and his knee cap was torn off
KING TUT
I think that the king tut movie is awsome. also its a very big mysterie how he died what i want to do is be the first one that could find out how he died. do you think i'd be famous. i think that i would i think could of been a murder. so thats what i think about king tut.
