Rabosai, its 'pogrom', not 'progrom'.

Not old but anyway, Track 2 halfway through
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

Every time, I hear about Adirei Hatorah, this song, unbidden, pops into my head:
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

THE HAND OF HASHEM- Gershon Veroba- Composed by Yerachmiel Begun, Lyrics by Yerachmiel Begun & Chesky Kleiner- Judaea/Miami Experience 1

In my mind,
It was a miracle,
Not the obvious kind,
But no less wonderful.
There are those who deny it,
They say it’s a lie,
With no help,
No outside help
From above.

All of us,
Have seen his hand at times,
Our hearts read
His name between the lines.
But some soon forget it,
Making believe they’re blind,
They turn away, that’s the game they play,
With their lives.

CHORUS 1:
The hand of Hashem,
Yes, it was shown to them,
The hand of Hashem,
Yes, it was clear to them,
But those who don’t see
Are those who refuse to see,
And those who don’t hear
Are those who refuse to hear.

Remember when
The scuds fell in the sand,
We said then
That’s where Hashem made them land.
Oh, but now, it’s all different,
There’s nothing unusual,
When miracles pass,
The faith doesn’t last- what’s there to believe.

CHORUS 2:
Oh, the hand of Hashem,
Yes, it was shown to them,
The hand of Hashem,
How could it be missed by them,
Yet; there they are,
Standing so far apart,
And thinking so small,
Compared to the size that fall.

The hand is not invisible,
It just hides in so many ways,
It causes all the grass to grow
And the sun to shine on the days,
And every day is another sign
For everyone to see,
And it takes a man
To see His plan
For all it’s meant to be.

CHORUS 1:
The hand of Hashem,
(Yes, it was shown to them,)
The hand of Hashem,
Yes, it was clear to them,
But those who don’t see
Are those who refuse to see,
And those who don’t hear
Are those who refuse to hear.

The hand of Hashem.
(x4)

Original was about the Entebbe rescue. This is the updated version sung by the Miami Experience years later.

Echo chambers are boring and don't contribute much to deeper thinking and understanding!

The version from Miami Experience is majestic, while the original is hard to listen to now because of the old sound quality. Gershon Veroba does an amazing job in the version posted above, truly makes me wonder why he was never considered a JM superstar.

Was originally too far off the mainstream - he went full-in on kiruv music and that seems to have colored people's view of him (THIS IS A GUESS). He would fit right in today, and his music is very enjoyable. (Did you hear his latest album? Fantastic!)

Not sure which is his latest but I have the one he put out in 2015. IIRC, I enjoyed it very much.
