...Tell it to Me Anyway!

So many of the "Al Cheits" deal with aspects of דיבור - one meaningful way for us to prepare for Yom Hadin is to try and be more aware of how we view the world, our neighbors, ourselves- and to be more careful with our speech..

Here is a 2 and half minute clip; very כדאי to watch this video message at some point during the עשרת ימי תשובה !


(Ed. Note: Extra points & free copy of Moshe Levy's Kol Hashirim for first person to identify the swamp-draining niggun Reb Paul is playing!)

P.S. Is that a davening hat on his piano? Kavod HaTorah!!

I don't think I know the title, but it may be "Hello my darling." If it is what I think it is, it makes an appearance in Spaceballs in the Space Diner when the Alien puts on its performance

No- thanks for trying though. So close, yet so far. JD: As far as I know, Mr. Rogers was not a labor Zionist. Triple P: Excellent effort -Gimme Paw.

i dont know but i feel like its from one of those old school israeli movies we would watch in lavi on fast days like, operation thunderbolt when the plane lands and they do a shot of some mixed dancing of israelis doing the hora in the negev.......or something

Ash- as always, excellent effort; you're getting warmer... "Or Something" is actually very close.

The song is from the oldies library of Israeli music but the name escapes me...I'll be back

Hey Rebbe,
my wife says the words are "yalda chaviva, yalda ne'ima, yalda ha'chachmat (i.e.ha'chachmas) leiv..." do we win?
either way have a gmar chasima tova and a year filled with health and simcha for the entire mishpacha

which niggun? The one he opens with or the one at the end of "hello my darling"

Levite Shlepper said...

Effie- Ashrecha!!

Your holy wife went to Darchei Bina! Could be that they sang the niggun with those beautiful words.. L'maaseh- We're talking 1930's zionist hit parade here (1:30 in Paul Shaefer video).

For the excellent effort- you can have the Moshe Levy CD (and so could all of your friends and neighbors) - as well as a copy of Otzros HaTorah!

"Lets hear it for all our winning bidders"
