Last night I occasionally saw a youtube channel which contained many videos with versions of Albanian songs, most of them from Bulgaria and I was amazed how many songs of the Ara-music-singers are from Albania.So I just decided to share it here, so you can see some very famous Albanian hits sang in other languages,mostly Bulgarian or Serbian ))

Songs, taken from Albanian singers:

Shpat Kasapi - Do te fal nje rruze/ Ivena - Neshto malko,cherno (Something little,black) * because of that cover Ivena was treatened by the singer Gabriela with murder and they got in a very ugly fighting at the awards of a very famous magazine.The reason is that Gabriela has wanted to sing that song instaed of Ivena.

Shpat Kasapi - Mos me urrej/ Alicia - Sini noshti
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQlO8NFypbo

So I think that are that I know for now, if something else comes to mind mind, I'll post it here

Thanks, TD! Just heard Emanuela & Krum. I have listened to the original so many times I almost didn't realise anymore what a wonderful song this is. Hearing it with new voices is refreshing.

heh, np i'm interested in the opposite site - to hear the originals ))
So I'll post now some covers made by Serbian-singing artists.

Genta - Kam ra ne halle/ Maja Marijana - Rodjena za flert (Born for flirt)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jByj-...e=channel_page

Mirsa Kerqeli - Djaloshi im/ Sladja Delibashich - Hipnoza (Hipnose)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7B-ZU...e=channel_page

that are the only for which I'm sure they are originally Albanian, there are many others but becuz both Maja Marijana and Sladja are singers who always take some others` songs , I'm 100% sure the originals are Albanian.

Also,cortom, here u can see the summer hits of Ara music 2009 and the 2 leading songs are covers of Albanian ones and the very leading song is "Nishto ne znaesh"

Very interesting! You did great research, Tedi
Btw, it always seems strange to me that serbs sing albanian songs...

Хаха ... actually it wasn't such a great research, I just put here all videos from that channel and the others - I've just heard them in both Albanian and Bulgarian ))
Well, I'm not surprised especially about Sladja becuz she almost doesn't have her own songs.She's taken from Bulgaria too.

Aha... so Maja Marijana & Sladja are from Bulgaria?
And what is Ara-music u are talking about?

Oh no. they both are from Serbia xD I know them very well because I'm much into Serbian music

Ara music & Diapazon records are two brother-companies for pop-folk music in Bulgaria.Their most famous singers are :Alicia,Teodora,Emanuela,Toni Storaro,Djina Stoeva,Ivena... but they build their carreers mostly on covers.Like: the first song of Alicia was "B`rzay bavno" and it's originally a song of Adelina Ismajli.They take songs from Albania and Greece mostly,but sometimes from Serbia and Turkey too.
I've said it before that the most stupid thing that has ever been related to Ara music was when 2 singers, Ivena and Gabriela got into a fighting about the song of Shpat Kasapi "Do te fal nje rruze" LOL. Ivena claimed that Gabriela has even treatened her with murder . One ex-star of Ara , Kati was for a moment popular in Albania because she had duets with the Albanian singer Sabiani.As a whole, they have many relations with Albania.They have even sent their singers to sing in Albanian pubs.

Yeah, that's very dumb thing XD

Tedinki I have thinked a lot for the bulgarian singers who always copies music from us.I watch everyday Balkanika Music Television and Im very surprised that almost every bulgarian singer copies songs from Albania.
The same thing happens with the serbian singers,
Sladja Dalibasic -Bas to(originall is albanian) also
Dragana Mirkovic-(dont know the name) but her song was in the awards of balkanika music television
All the songs u mentioned I heard them in this chanel
Also Ara Music and Virginia Records,and Diapazon Music are most known in Bulgaria but they do copied songs right?
I really aprichiate that a bulgarian(are u bulgarian?) recognise that most of bulgarian singers dont make originall songs, bye

Flori and Soni Malaj - Fluturimi 3470/ Emanuela and Krum - Nishto ne znaesh (U don't know anytihing) * note - that song "Nishto ne znaesh" currently is one of the greatest hits in Bulgaria, it's a new song here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qO_L...e=channel_page

Sorry but this song was stolen from bulgarians! Fluturimi 3470 came out way before Nishto Ne Znaesh...
So don't make it seem like albanians would always copy! What a shame

Tamin: this is what we are saying too.That bulgarians are copying songs from Albania.That of Emanuela and Krum is absolutely stolen cos when Balkanika Music Television made the international festival last year was accepted that Flori gave his song to Emanuela.It is wellknown that the song is originally ALBANIAN.

Teodora - Hit si za jenite is actually an old albanian folk song

I could go on and on and on but I'm lazy LOL

Maybe its because I understand the albanian one and they dont seem so interesting to me anymore HAHAH

Costi Ionita ALina Necazuri si suparari 2004 Shpat Kasapi Valle Kosovare 2005????

Valle Kosova

Unë mendoj
Bashk te jetojm
Më rrëmbeve shpirtin tim
Kjo jetë e re plot dashuri
Sot kalon kjo beqari
Ne do t'vallzojm
Ne kete rini
Dhe dollin krushqit ngrejn
Je sikur kanë na ka zili
Se martohemi ne te dy

(Ref)
Hidhe vallen lulja ime
Hidhe vallen ti o moj sorkadhe
Tpaska hije yll dashurije
Nje beqar ke per te marr
Binin fort ju dahire
Deri naten vonë
Gezimin tonë
Valle valle Shqipetare
Nje beqar ke per te marr

Une mendoj
Bashk ne t'jetojm
Me rrembeve shpirtin tim
Kjo jete e re plot dashuri
Sot kalon kjo beqari
Ne do t'vallzojm
Ne kete rini
Dhe dollin krushqit ngren
Je sikur kane na ka zili
Se martohemi ne te dy.


Hidhe vallen lulja ime
Hidhe vallen ti o moj sorkadhe
Valle valle Shqipetare
Nje beqar ke per te marr
Binin fort ju dahire
Deri naten vonë
Gezimin tonë
Valle valle Kosovare
T'paska hije yll dashurije.
