Back in the good old days of Napster (AKA the best single year in the history of recorded music sales), the end came when users could get banned based on having particular artists in their shared collections. My wife had 13,000+ mp3s in her collection, and got a message one morning "You have been banned by Googoosh".

I'm naming my next female rescued cat Googoosh.

"what's with all the terrorist media lately on the ol'sift? " - again with the ignorant hate lobododo! This clip is pre-revolution, as in before the Islamic revolution. Googoosh was banned in Iran under the Islamic revolution. Why don't you learn something about history instead of spreading hate?

I'm glad everyone likes this! I first heard it playing in a shop in the far north of Oman. I instantly fell in love with Googoosh's voice and I persuaded the shop-owner to sell me his tape. A few weeks later I took great pleasure driving around Iran listening to it!
