Album Description
Available in:
Desert Wind was the 1989 album of Ofra Haza, who was already one of the most popular singers in Israel. However, she was unknown in the rest of the world. It was the song "Im Nin'Alu" and the following album Shaday that brought her to the attention of Europe and the United States. Desert Wind was therefore more oriented toward the international market.

The main language of the album is in English, however Ofra also sings in Arabic, Hebrew, and the ancient language of Aramaic. The album has a very oriental feeling, since it contains ancient Yemenite songs. The sound is a mainstream form of dance music with elements of synth pop and, on track 8, an influence of house music. The album ends with "Kaddish," a Jewish prayer that, as Haza writes, is meant to hold all the world's sorrows on the wings of an angel. The song has a short English-language introduction. However, the main part of the prayer is in Aramaic.
