Googoosh - man aamadeam

Faegheh Atashin (Persian: فائقه آتشین) (born February 7, 1951), known as Googoosh (Shah-Mahie Honare Iran) (Persian: گوگوش), is an Iranian singer. Along with singing, she has also acted in several Persian films of the 1960s and 1970s; however, her work as an actress has always been eclipsed by her popularity as a singer. Known for her pulchritude and depth of her songs, she attained the status of a celebrity larger than life. She stayed in Iran from 1979 to 2000, enduring isolation due to the Iranian Revolution, Iran-Iraq War, and repression. Her silence contributed to her enduring popularity during this time. Beside Iran, she still has a wide following in many Middle Eastern and Central Asian countries. She now lives in California, USA and continues her career, albeit in a limited manner. In a contrast to her earlier music, her recent albums deal with more mature subjects.
