Video Premiere
 Artist: Sevara Nazarkhan
Song: " Mogulchai Navo"
Country: Uzbekistan
Official Sevara website
Sevara sent us this video a while back�but up until now we only had the "pop" version of the track, with synths and backup vocals; we did not have the original arrangement, which was traditional vocal, tar and drums. We have it now, fresh from Uzbekistan. It's a real treat to be able to hear the beautiful melismas that Sevarah sings so effortlessly. Mogulchai Navo is a classical court song, based on the musical system of muggam, or modes. The video was filmed in Tashkent, and the cultural center there contributed costumes, dancers and choreography.
--and now you can get this track and another one of our favorites, "Gazli" in its original arrangement exclusively at the Link TV Music Store. What a scoop!
Premiere: Monday, 9/20 at 7:55 PM ET (4:55 PM PT)
Repeat times are:
Tuesday, 9/21 at 1:55 AM ET (10:55 PM PT)
Tuesday, 9/21 at 7:55 AM ET (4:55 AM PT)
Tuesday, 9/21 at 1:55 PM ET (10:55 AM PT)
Remember that you can own much of the music featured on our music blocks by visiting our online music store. We have either CDs or 99 cent song downloads available for many of the artists on our 43 playlists. Check them out

Best Viewer Comments Of The Week
(Keep them coming. Next week it could be yours!)
(Mosaic: World News From The Middle East) I have never seen a news program that offers such honest and indebth programming. Would love to see much more of it... This is the type of news we need on main stream t.v people need to see the truth. Sent: 9/8/2004
Awesome Job you do.... The music of World Link TV first drew me to your broadcast.You play awesome songs and some styles I never knew existed. Then you became Link TV and your scope and focus increased because you show us realities the other media sources are afraid to reveal. I am now a better informed person about parts of this great planet we live on. The understanding you bring to us all is way greater than the value it takes to make it public.So many of us need Link TV to go forward into our futures with love for all mankind. I hope your mission is never altered from your current path.

(Re: Good Morning Afganistan) This is the best TRUE Journalism I have seen in the USA! The documentary was great, the footage fantastic and I love the lack of Right or Left Spin. Youre so much better than FOX NEWS or CNN. I was very happy with "Good Morning Afganistan" and I watch "Mosaic" often to try to gain understanding. SW I often don't have a lot of extra funds at the end of the month, but I have decided tp put forth an effort to save something of my funds to donate in support of your station. It wont be much, but it'll be as much as I can spare. I hope others out there will do the same. Thanks for the good work!
