CBS Live Feed Some Weird Singing

[LouisianaJoanof Arc]

Anybody heard this, know what to think of it?

[katana]

It was a muezzin making the first call for prayer. It's a little before five AM and this would be the first of five prayers in a day. Anybody who's been in the Middle East would recognize it.

Another little mentioned Iraqi minority are the Whos down in Whoville.

[Merdoug]

I agree. It would be nice if no one had to die in this, but, thanks to Saddam, I'm afraid that's wishful thinking.

Could be the Debut of "Iraq Idol", the new game show from
Qusay TV.

[wimpycat]

It sounds quite nice, actually. I like the sound. But hearing it 5 times a day, every day would drive me batty.

[METARZAN]

Yes, that is their morning prayer.

I used to listen to that stuff every morning before the "war" started (the 1st war). Was even before wake-up. It's really odd and scary when you here it and it also is your wake-up call. Most (soldiers in tents) would start yelling and screaming and laughing (and saying lots' of other things). Sure, it was disresptful, but imagine waking up to it every morning...kinda like the "buzzer" function on your alarm clock.

Human shields singing Kumbaya?

[LouisianaJoanof Arc]

I had to mute it. Anyone know of any free live tv feeds?

[sharktrager]

I think it's that host that was in front of the sun earlier.

[LouisianaJoanof Arc]

Thanks for the info

[BCrago66]

Link to the CBS feed?

Call to prayer -- if you listen to the first bars they are :

Allah Whakbar -- Repeated over and over --

It means god is great. I hope we hit them the minute that it ends.

[Az Joe]

Anyone else hearing that far off rumbling?

[LouisianaJoanof Arc]

yes

[The Duke]

Dead carp singing?

[Az Joe]

Must be the wind. Geez even the wind has got me jumping, imagine those Iraquis there.

[LouisianaJoanof Arc]

Did you notice the lights just went out in that building?

[meyer]

Kenneth's trying to find the frequency.

Excellent!! LOL!~

[LouisianaJoanof Arc]

Sirens!!!

[Hildy]

speaking of that, Mr. Fred, Did you see Simon Cowell on American Idol last night? After some girl sang, he told her that she was good and could go and replace that "Girl from the Dixie Chicks." It was very funny.
