I have been puzzling over it ever since the song became popular; it is meaningless out of context and the song certainly doesn't do anything for it. At least now I won't be burning with the question of what it means! Not that this won't drive me nuts as well. I'm a stickler for singing words correctly and the mood of the song matching its original intent.Bas~Melechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01511197551248863790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-5547147516927085902007-02-12T21:22:00.000-05:002007-02-12T21:22:00.000-05:00Hey Sholom...I think that if we were to hold a con...Hey Sholom...I think that if we were to hold a contest as to most egregious offenders....we'd get many tied for first :-).....<BR/><BR/>Anon....Thanks (i think) for the props, I had Sunday night off....MSK on...and if we've performed together, Why u anonymous?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-11207593757762547622007-02-08T16:12:00.000-05:002007-02-08T16:12:00.000-05:00Re: mispronounced words in songs: The one that bur...Re: mispronounced words in songs: <BR/><BR/>The one that burns me the most is in Neginah's "Chai Hashem", from their second album way back in '72 or so, where "va'yadber amim tachtoy" (Tehillim 18:48) is mispronounced "vayedaber". Yes, they're both spelled the same way, but what a difference in meaning! (I realize this song isn't performed much these days, and it really deserves to be heard more, but if you do play it, please say the words right. The correct pronunciation even fits the meter better, as it's three syllables rather than four.)<BR/><BR/>Not to mention "Kah ribon oilam". The word is "alam", in Aramaic, not "olam" in Hebrew.<BR/><BR/>As to mismatch between words and music. Probably the most egregious example of this is on the very first Miami Boys Choir album, circa 1977, where "someone" set the words "Elokay ad shelo notzarti" from the end of Viduy to a tune that would have been better suited as the theme to Barney or something. "Oh Hashem, tra la la, I am unworthy of existence, la la, I am dust, teedly dee," one can almost see the fairies flitting about sprinkling pixie dust on things. These words are among the most serious tefilos of the whole year, and this light-hearted theme is just insanely inappropriate. I heard this tune as a kid before I'd even learned the davening for the yomim noroim, and now every time I say those words I have this tinkly melody in my head. Totally ruins my kavonoh.

Take "L'Gabay," for instance. The words are from a gemara in Yoma (70-something) explaining why the Kohen Gadol can sacrifice the Korban Tomid before (I think) the Avodas Hayom. Won't he be too tired to finish the Avodah if he sacrifices all seven goats of the Tamid? The gemara answers, "Don't worry, L'gabay Avodas Hayom Zariz Hu - when it comes to the Yom Kippur service he is careful/energetic/reliable (all those connotations)."<br /><br />Now listen to the song and tell me if the tune has anything to do with the words. It's a waste of a good tune, if you ask me. He might as well have been singing "Shooby Dooby Doo."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-73651771533257067312007-02-06T11:54:00.000-05:002007-02-06T11:54:00.000-05:00check out my new site, it is very interesting and ...check out my new site, it is very interesting and cool.....Shimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15885512857187763949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-35102941889150659982007-02-05T20:24:00.000-05:002007-02-05T20:24:00.000-05:00Anonymookie- I like the CD also except for the wa...Anonymookie- I like the CD also except for the way he does this one song.

I have a very bad memory which is something I need to work on. Even though it is referring to the same person it should be said or sung properly in its original context. About singing a Pasuk by heart and singing in general I believe is only a problem with an actual Biblical Shir such as Shir HaShirim. It was a big contorversy when Reb Shlomo sang Hashmiani even though he explained how he got a heter to do so. Tehillim and other Pesukim are sung all the time so I am not sure what you are getting at. I know there is a problem with the Shabbos Day kiddush because of Pesukim which is why some people only say Borei Pri Hagafen.<br /><br />Anonymous 2- People should not do that either. There is also a similar issue when people sing Sheyibaneh Hamikdash and Yibaneh Hamikdash. The difference between my post and this example however is this issue in my post has to do with something that was recorded incorrectly and as a result people singing the wrong thing and your example is just about how people sing it. They are both problems but a result of two different things.FrumWithQuestionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16669717584308348172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-30840243493486513242007-02-04T04:11:00.000-05:002007-02-04T04:11:00.000-05:00There is a similar situation with the song ובאו......There is a similar situation with the song ובאו.......בארץ אשור והנדחים בּארץ מצרים...............והשתחוו לה' בהר הקדש בּירושלים where many sing repeatedly ירושלים instead ofבּירושלים at the end of the song.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-92139929964057701692007-02-04T04:00:00.000-05:002007-02-04T04:00:00.000-05:001) What explanation do Ben Tzion Solomon and Rabbi...1) What explanation do Ben Tzion Solomon and Rabbi Shur give why the Pasuk says Eliyah Hanavi and not Eliyahu Hanavi ? The one from Rashi ?<br /><br />2) I hear your point. However, Eliyah and Eliyohu refer to the same person. It's just sometimes spelled without a vav. If you look in the meforshim on the posuk you will see that some say Eliyohu.<br /><br />3) Perhaps there is actually a benefit to singing it in an altered form as some might say there are questions about singing a posuk by heart and singing one as a song. So if it's altered that might perhaps alleviate the situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30695998.post-23569790180810227322007-02-03T23:47:00.000-05:002007-02-03T23:47:00.000-05:00Malachi perek 3 pasuk 23Malachi perek 3 pasuk 23D'varim P'shutimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12167458526359470644noreply@blogger.com
