Shir Hafrecha - Ofra Haza
- 13 years ago
Shir Hafrecha (The Frecha's Song) from the movie Schlager (The Hit) - Ofra Haza as Dina (Widescreen Version).....
A frecha (Arabic for young female chicken) is a woman who is sexy but stupid and low-class. The word has been around since the early 1970s and originally referred to a Sephardic Jewish woman of Middle Eastern origin who exhibited traits of silliness and materialism. The 1979 song Shir Hafrecha (The Frecha Song or The Bimbo Song) by Ofra Haza is one of the biggest Israeli hits of all time even though it was originally banned on some radio stations. Some of the lyrics are: "I don't have a head for long words / And you're like a long word" and "I go wherever the fun is, with my nail polish, lipstick and other show-offy things...I feel like shouting out: 'I'm a frecha!'"
