Golden memories . . .


បុប្ផាក្បាលជ្រោយ (អ.យ៉េង)
To the reader who requested this song: sorry about the late response. I have just seen your message. This is another treasure from Mr Inn Yeng. Best to listen to these songs around midnight, I feel! With kind regards - School of Vice.

"Kolab Koh Keo" (Rose of Keo Island) by Inn Yeng





Mr Inn Yeng may not share Mr Sinn Sisamouth's golden voice, yet many of his songs have that surreal, dream-like sentimentality that transports listeners to another realm . . . whilst the lyrics, simple and unembellished, adds poignant/romantic texture and poetry to otherwise mundane vocabulary. Just as a great writer strings together a collection of choice words into a powerful, immaculate prose or narrative, a bona fide artist or poet is able to achieve likewise when projecting nuances of human emotions through their craft. 

Ok, someone should tell me to stop adding these comments!  (SoV).

It's very accurate on your description of Mr. Inn Yeng songs. One of the many songs from him that I like is called "Kakasayean chegn chak seyma [Airplance's leaving the perimeter]. Thank you for sharing.

I like your comment, bora-the-hunk. keep it coming. Inn Yeng's voice is too monotonal to me, but his songs are of profund meaningfulness.

My apology. "Akasayean " is sung by Mr Sos Matt rather than Mr. Inn Yeng. Do a Youtube search on Akasayean will lead to the video that I uploaded. Thanks.

Too late all of you dummy,

I let Khmer screw me; all Khmer officials, from top to bottom, screw Viet for free whether they be in Phnom Penh or on their TDY/Training/Visit in Vietnam (Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City etc...) They love Viet's food, they love Viet's ass...Viet is everywhere in Viet-Cambodia from farmer to technician, from nurse to doctor, from firefighter to engineer, from rubber plantation owner/worker to Hun Sen's political advisor and bodyguards including Angkor Wat's owner...You all name it and Viet is there...Khmer doesn't do squat nowadays...

Whether or not they surrender themselves to Viet, Khmer is now Viet (period.)

Hun Sen is just a dumb Viet-Khmer that can be disposed of anytime at just a blink of an eye!

Ms. Soap

P.s. Again, challenge me if all of you dumb Khmer can. We have millions of us (legally the majority) that will vote for Viet-Khmer candidate forever... Eat your heart out Sam Raingsy and Theary Seng or whoever thinks that you can de-vietnamize the Federation of Indochina now or anytime in the forseeable future...

KRT is just a show to entertain the world. We, Viet, are that good and smart.

KI-Media is yesterday news and ought to shut down for good now...or better yet, come kiss our Viet's ass now!!!

Can Khmer put up the second Killing fields to get rid of millions of legal Viet-Khmer citizen now???

Okay you dumb Khmer - put up or shut up while we, Viet, are domesticating you for the bright future of the Federation of Indochina!

Not to worry about the Chinese, they are just being proud and busy making money for themseves...

លោក ខៀវ សំផន ហៅក្រៅថា "ឡាង" រងគ្រោះ
រហូតដោយសារតែអា ស្ដេច ចង្រៃមួយឈ្មោះ
អា សីហនុ!!!

Khieu Samphân aka "LANG" has been simply the victim of that midget prince known as SIHANOUK, the playboy!

Ask the KRT if Khieu's nickname is in fact "LANG" if you can?

Si on ne me croît pas, demande-t-on donc à «KRT» si jamais le faux-nom de Khieu Samphân était «LANG»!

i think every khmer singers are talented and unique in their own way. each of their songs are adorable. it think it's about the clarity of the khmer voice and singing out loud as hard as they can. i'm sure the one with the clearest voice wins like sin sisamouth and ros sereysothea for instance.

Thank you much for your kind response and the posting of "bopha kbal chroy"! The original song still gets me all sentimental every time I hear it.
