Singer Isaac Honig:

I

can give you a few examples of songs that give me a real uplift. These are songs that were surely composed with a great feeling of connection because that comes across, giving the listener a derhoibene feeling. Yossi Green classics, like “Ka’ayol Taarog” and “Emes Ki Atah Hu Yotzrom” on Avraham Fried’s The Time is Now and We Are Ready albums. Then there’s Dedi’s “Omnom,” and Reb Moshe Goldman’s “Melech Shochein Ad,” with its high part “Melech maazin sha’avah,” which I sang on my album Behar Hamoriah. All these songs can help someone who’s feeling a little low.
