Contributed by: Omer Bot. Superman (For Alon, the Hostages, and their families) by John Ondrasik (Five for Fighting).
I just read about this today in an ADL newsletter and found the song and accompanying video very moving, especially since John Ondrasik is not Jewish: Grammy-nominated singer John Ondrasik, aka Five For Fighting, has rerecorded his hit song “Superman” to bring attention to the Israeli hostages in Gaza, focusing on Alon Ohel. Inspired by a photo of Alon in a Superman costume, Ondrasik worked with Alon’s family to create a powerful new version of the song. He’s also written another song for the hostages and performed in Hostages Square. The updated “Superman” offers a message of hope, with a video featuring footage from Hostages Square and Alon’s family. Both Ondrasik and Alon’s mom are emphasizing the importance of unity and remembering the hostages. Learn More.

The most beautiful music I ever sang in choir was written by Cantor Charles Osborne when he was cantor at Temple Emanuel in Newton, MA. It is his setting of Psalm 122, also known as the Pilgrim’s Psalm, which is most fitting as we celebrate a holiday of pilgrimage to the Temple in Jerusalem. I have included the Hebrew & English text and music and a youtube link. I hope you enjoy it. Cantor Osborne has written a substantial body of music for synagogue services and most of it is accessible to the congregation and not cantorial showpieces. He continues his prolific career at Temple Sinai Congregation of Toronto:

This band broke up a while ago, unfortunately. They are named for the modesty stockings we see on Hassidic women. They have a great music sensibility, and a sound like no one else. It isn’t every day to hear Hassidic womens’ voices.
