About the songs
Most of the album songs contain the unique traditional Lebanese beat:
- "Ta'a Khabik" is a good example of futuristic Lebanese developed rhythm.
- "Ammanti Galbi" puts two styles of music together and has a strong upbeat presence, like the cultural dabkeh.
- "Kammel Ala Rouhi" is a slow meaningful song with excellent voice stands provided by Najwa Karam and contains many high notes.
- "Kammel Ala Rouhi" and "Gatalna El Khof" were composed by Melhem Barakat and are the two examples of songs in which Najwa Karam expresses emotions through her voice.
- "El Helm El Abyad" is a wedding song, which starts with a cultural mawal at the start then an upbeat, tabla beat which matches with her former hits.
- "Enta El Shams" is an upbeat tempo similar to her other song "Baddak Terja'a", and "Ma Bkhabi Aleyk" is also on the slow upbeat side. The same song was also sung by Lebanese singer Diana Haddad at 2001.
Overall the album "Am Bemzah Ma'ak" is similar to her former releases in the 1990s.
