Historically, Steung Khiev refers to one of a river in the northwest of Cambodia, Sangker River in Battambang Province. During the glorious era of Cambodia in 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s, many famous artists came from the nearby villages along Steung Khiev that was composed in several songs of our oldies. Those artists are Ros Sereysothea, Huy Meas, Pen Ran, Pen Ram, Sinn Sisamouth (used to live there during his childhood), Im Song Seum, Mao Sareth.... Therefore, top ten 2 YouTube Channel for our oldies were created such as Steung Khiev Cool and iRSSS Cool with the meaning as below.
