Todays song of the day 6/6/22

Todays song is a cover song sung by artist Miri Aloni:

AHAVAT ITAMAR AHAVAT ITAMAR BEN AVI		LOVE OF ITAMAR LOVE OF ITAMAR BEN AVI
Hineh veretet be'orpi shuv ya'avor eichah dibrah ha'ahavah shel pa'am ba'ir Yerushalaim ish tahor tahor Ahuv ahav ka'uv ka'av beza'am vezehu davar ahavato oleh balehavah asher sham'ah nesichato le'ah ha'ahuvah. At le'ati ahavati lamrot retzonah mi yiten yacholti lasur lema'onah ani ohev otach kol kach ani noshek otach kol kach lu ahavtini le'ati chayay lach umoti. Vehu amar lah at shochenet bil'vavi vatzar alai beitah ut'shukoteiha chatam belahat itamar hu ben avi shalosh shanim bachu'ha bacha eleilha bikesh lasim ketz lechayav be'ekdacho hakar veshar lah nachal dma'otav veshar veshar veshar.

At le'ati ahavati lamrot retzonah...		I feel a shudder at the back of my neck  Thinking about how Love once used to speak. In the city of Jerusalem there was a very pure man, Deeply in love and in a great pain of angst. And these were the words of his love:  A flaming love,  Which was heard  By his beloved princess, Leah  “I loved my Leah – in spite of her will; Oh, how I wish I could cross her threshold. I love you so much! I yearn to kiss you! If only you would love me, my Leah, I would be yours in life and death.” And he said to her: “You dwell in my heart” And he stalked her house and her desires, Signed his letters in passion, Itamar Ben Avi, And cried for her incessantly three years. He threatened to take his own life With his cold pistol. And sang to her a river of tears He sang, and sang and sang: “I loved my Leah – in spite of her will; Leah is locked and indrawn in her hideaway, With her coal-colored hair and pure complexion.  He vowed to obliterate her image in his heart, But his promise failed, and he returned to her. And sometime after three years At long last she went after him. Since then when he walks the bells Ring his poetry to her. “I loved my Leah – in spite of her will;

It’s a nice dance. Other artists sing the song.  

Song of the Day 5/20/22

Hello all, 

Brand new video came out on May 18, 2022. 

I love The Revivo Project! And when they sing Dabri Elai. WOW! Enjoy the ocean cruise make sure Gilligan isn't on the ship. We don't want Revivo to be stranded on a deserted island!

There are a few songs mixed in on the video, so I didn't link to translation site on this one. 

Enjoy your weekend.. Have Fun! Be Safe ! 

Song of the day 5/19/22

Good morning sunshines! 😀🌞

Well I’ve decided to start small again and post something a little more often. Please follow my blog. 

I will be starting to in post a song of the day. The song of the day for me is usually a song that might be new or old. I might play it 3-4 times 

I’ll try and post the lyrics to the song as well (if I remember). If I forget use lyricstranslate.com. 

Todays song I remember learning the dance to. Eyal Golan sings the song.

Great quality concert video for better enjoyment:

Happy day I dunno!

I was kind of surprised today. We had Israeli dancing outside and a lot of our Scottsdale group showed up. I was able to teach Ilai Spiezak’s dance lecha Dodi. I was told by a few I’m not a dance teacher. Well little do they know I’ve taught children and adults throughout my lifetime. I have taught Israeli dance from Yuba city / marysville, Ca to Los Angeles and more. In Los Angeles I assisted the awesome Gadi Bitton, Shlomo Maman, Rafi Ziv, Dudu Barzilay, Shmulik Gov-Ari, and many other well known choreographers.

When I lived in la I also helped and ran some of the best parties.

A few were picky about my weird versions of the music. Well I don’t get that either. Who wants to dance to the same music week after week. It’s time to change it up! Seriously!

People did seem to like the dance. So how could people not like different versions and learning a fun dance. Am I a dance leader?
