Easy Khmer Song to Sing At Wedding

RCR · Post by **RCR** » Wed Jan 09, 2019 2:31 pm

My wife and I will be getting married next month and I thought it would be a nice surprise to perform a short song in Khmer at the wedding. I was just looking for suggestions on a simple song I could learn and perform fairly easily. My khmer isn't that good but I am able to pull off most of the pronunciations fairly well. I am not a very good singer but I think the family and everyone else would really enjoy it. Anybody have any suggestions for a song? Prefer an older song that most of the old people at the wedding will be familiar with. Thanks very much!

Reversely what do you think of Khmers singing English songs, even if their spoken English is good?

Sentiment is nice but I think you’ll get stoned, laughed at or a >slow clap<.

Just joking. Jamie will be along soon.

Why don't you sing that popular song urging a young woman not to divorce her husband because she will die alone and miserable? I forgot the title but you should sing that it's really popular.

You could try taam-uy-taam, when you start it she can join you. The lyrics are fairly simple.

People from other countries may laugh at you if you sing badly, but Cambodians will not make fun of you no matter how badly you sing. They will be happy that you tried.

If you sing well, it will look like you have spent too much time in KTV joints.

Better to sing badly.
