Now people live for moneys and their machines. Back then we all live for love and find food to comfort for more love. This song is such a great meaning to remind all of us about love. How do we get there on this earth?
That girl is so elegant, especially with that bottle figure of hers. Not to mention graceful, as demonstrated by the way she ascended the stairs. Why can't all females be like this?

Scopitones: 1) In the 1940s, there were film jukeboxes in the USA which showed a short 16mm movie on a screen to accompany a song. These were called "Soundies". 2) In the early 1960s, a similar machine was manufactured in France, which was called a Scopitone.
It's Saksy-Sbong and General Nhek Choulong. Borey Chou Long (in Sihanouk ville) was name after him. it seemed like every body in high ranking officials were busy making movie in those times.
@sivhengu Yes everybody in high ranking were busy having fun, no wonder that the country collapsed! I'm not saying they couldn't have fun but there are artists to make people enjoy life and there are those to lead the country. I won't write my thoughts on this topic because I wouldn't stop.
five years later all the people involved in this song and video where told to "come with us - you will produce rice else sing propaganda songs for Angkar", this meant the khmer rouge killed them for being "supporters of the imperialist (lon nol) dog" and "being bourgeious" i doubt any of those in the video (singing, playing an instrument or appearing in the video) lived beyond 1978.
