Overnight music video
Posting was sporadic tonight because I attended a wedding in Bnei Brak (last night I also attended a wedding in Bnei Brak and tomorrow night I have two weddings in Jerusalem - busy week). This has become much more complicated than it ever was because we don't have a car right now. Ours died, and we have yet to buy another one. Israel's public transportation is frankly horrendous. It takes 45 minutes each way to drive to Bnei Brak, but it took us an hour and forty minutes each way by public transport tonight. The only people who use public transport are those who don't own - and generally cannot afford to own - a car. That's the sad reality in this country.If any of you regularly attend religious Jewish weddings in Israel, please tell me when Killing Me Softly (by Roberta Flack) became acceptable music for those weddings. The band played it while the young couple was off in their isolation chamber (anyone have a better name for it in English?), and I figured that other than the band I was the only one who recognized the song. I also figured I was the only one there - including the band - who knew the words. I guess that was fortunate.
Here's Roi Yedid with Sameyach T'Samach and Asher Bara (yes, I know that this Asher Bara is actually also originally a rock song).
Let's go to the videotape.
