    Desperately seeking Isaan Song

    Hi everybody,

    I just came back from an Isaan trip where I saw this song on VCD first time, it was pretty funny. I'd really love to see it again. It's about a young, ugly villagegirl being bullied by her friends, later doing cleaning jobs until she leaves the village. Some time later she has become a beautiful girl and retourns to her village with a Farang on her side whom she marries. Now she is surrounded by her old friends being jealous at her and is widely admired in her village.

    I checked half the internet for it but found nothing.
    Who possibly knows the singer or has a link to that video, I'd be so grateful.

    Thanks for any help!

    Ben

    Maybe it's this one you're looking for?
    Doesn't fit your description 100%, but it comes close plus it's been a very popular song for the last year or so:

    ÊÒÇÅÒ´¾ÃéÒÇ - ÊÒÇÁÒ´ àÁ¡Ðá´¹«ì (Sao LadPrao from SaoMart MegaDance)

    Still can't post links, but look on Youtube to see if it;s the one you're looking for....

    Great, thanks a lot to both of you guys. That's it! It just seems that it's not the complete video as the bit with her wearing the headscarfe whilst cleaning and the farang weeding scene is missing. Maybe it was already the next song on that VCD, but I don't think so. The band is called Sao Lad Prao, right? Do they have an album?
    Thanks again!

    Actually it's the other way around: Sao Lad Prao is the name of the song, the name of the band is Sao Mart MegaDance.

    I've only seen this version of the video, nothing with her getting married to a farang I'm afraid.

    After this they had another hit with Dao Mahalai - ´ÒÇÁËÒÅÑÂ , but still no farang in sight

    It's also possible that it's another Morlam-song that just sounds a lot like this one of course.....
