Released on 14 February, the single is currently the eighth most viewed music videos.
The touching video is an ode to his oldest son Wadih who passed away on 6 January due to complications from gastric bypass surgery.
Calling his son "the most beautiful thing in my life," Wassouf goes on to sing "I'll pay half of my life just to live with you for a while."
Set in sepia colours to mark the memory of the past, the music video uses numerous photographs showing Wadih as a small child, teenager, and a grown-up man, together with Wassouf and other members of the family. The video also presents Wassouf in the recording studio as he shifts between singing and pensive moments.
Wassouf's hallmark hoarse vocals add to the expression of the father, who, while talking to his son takes the listeners into the singer's mourning state. The sense of agony is additionally underlined by the music arrangement with lengthy string lines leading the dark emotions. Embraced by soft percussions, the distanced occasional solos from woodwinds underpin the musical image.
By the end of the song, Wassouf introduces a recitative-like segment, saying "My days with you were beautiful, I wish they were longer," before closing the track with a musical pain vocalisation.
Noss Omry was released on YouTube and numerous streaming platforms. To date, the song has reached over 1.6 views on YouTube.
The song is composed by Mohamed Yehia, with arrangement by Zezo Farouk and lyrics by Khaled Tag Eldeen.
Though Wadih was never highlighted in the media, his passing in January created a significant stir. Many outlets began commenting on the dangers of the gastric sleeve operation (stomach reduction), a choice of numerous people aiming to lose weight. Wadih, one of three sons of Wassouf and his ex-wife Shalimar, went through the procedure in a hospital in Lebanon on 27 December 2022. A week later the complications resulting from the operation brought him back to the hospital where he eventually passed away on 6 January 2023.
Just like other sons of Sultan El-Tarab -- as Wassouf is often referred to -- Wadih did not have a music career.
