And what are the words and where are they from?
Let's dance till the light of the sun, let's dance till the light of the morning, always had me suspicious about this song...
The hebrew words are from a pre-shachris piyut about how special the neshomo is, brought in classic sidurim like this one. (bottom of the page)
The yiddish lines are a total distortion of the 3rd and 4th lines of the piyut (using the rhyme from the piyut but making it about dancing until... instead of the light of the neshomo is like...).
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

Maybe we could use 2 categories:

Jewish/Holy music: center around G-d and our relationship with him.

Parve music: there is nothing "not Jewish" about it.
It's written by a frum Jew.
The lyrics are by a frum Jew.
The performer is a frum Jew. Etc.

The terms "religious music" (or "sacred music") and "secular music" already exist. (Also, I don't
think it's sensible to remove the word "Jewish" from something because it isn't religion-focused.)

This was uploaded on January 10, 2010. It has 1107 views as of this post (about 105 per year, averaged).
That's far too few in my opinion. (Don't expect too much from the visuals, though.)

did anyone watch the battle of the singers yesterday? between Benny Friedman and Mordechai Shapiro?

Was it any good? who won?
Here's a video of highlights

Mordechai Shapiro is musically gifted.
Indeed, but Benny is no loser here. He's not as good 'counselor'y as Mordechai.

Fried's Relax is available (I got it on MostlyMusic, don't know where else it's available).

Interestingly, the download comes with two files, one split into medleys and one into tracks.
They also did that with Shulem Brodt's previous album, Mashmia Shuloim.

Thx. Is there a way to download on Amazon based on melodies and not songs.
Is there anything to do about the breaks between songs in the melodies?
I bought it on Amazon so I could use my digital credits and also because it might have been a few cents cheaper.

I did not check this carefully for this particular album, but it's possible that how bad those breaks are might depend on which player you use. If it's just a delay due to the player, you could fix it by using an editor to string the tracks together to get the same result as Mostly Music's medleys.
