spelled s o UL interviews and the purpose of these interviews is so that we can have a good time and we can experience some some good humor and some rich experiences rich experiences and hear stories perspectives from different various people personalities and we begin with many and I've lecture just like to say that I've known many for many years but I've really first got to notice the fact that he has a perhaps a future of music actually during my during our sever brothers when Cheney and I are getting married and during the Chevy raucous we had a Chevy roughly as hosted by rabbi Josh Gordon all of us on at swap out of Tarzana and during the Chevy blockers Josh we got on your case to sing something and I got to tell you I didn't know why I don't know what was the big customer that you should sing something why not get a moolies case or Salman's case or my case I don't have a bad voice you know you want to have me seen I would love to him okay see people want to hear me sing so haha here so I didn't understand what was the big thing about Benny singing anyway so you sing started to know him from a ground frame and then you got to the end of the song where it goes really high and I thought for sure she he's not gonna like are my family after this and you nailed it and it was beautiful and I never I never knew that you had singing it out before I guess you developed it in Postville and I was already gone and you were gone you were imposed too though I was in Miami probably and our paths didn't cross musically so that was my introduction to your musical career I'd like to stop for one second and say - Shoshanna Clarkin who just said thank you Ali I think that we should make aa hiam that everybody who needs a first language should have it a flourish leymah and we should here humble Blee happy good news today amang I mean so oh hi I'm sorry that I don't have any hard worker but Benny does oh that's dr. pepper no I made it he mixed it good yeah Josh I'm Alejandra Shama we love our realm of Rama of ROM look forward to seeing him again soon and for bringing with you guys and most importantly we love the chocolate chip cookies that you bring when you come for Shabbos the very important part of my life so everything needs to go back to normal hi hi I'm so dang yes so I want to say yeah I remember one maybe it was like a Pesach or suka seventh we were all home for some reason and I started talking to you about the the the pros and the cons as far as a silicate or whatever about becoming a singer becoming Avram freed and you said to me then you said whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa hold your horses nobody in this room is is becoming the next Avram freed all right Ivan freed was born with extraordinary talent and and he was gifted by God and he was touched by the hand of God and and there's no but I mean so let's just put that so then I made it my life's mission to prove to you that even without god-given talent could still make a living in Jewish music business so I have two questions for you first of all have you have you ever thought about where that need comes from to disprove somebody who says something like that I mean what is this like a logical desperation to disprove me I mean I said you're not gonna be the next album freed why didn't you just accept that harsh reality um because it was face off and was after the four cups and I was like probably what was I like no no because when you like in that situation you always up for a fight that's true probably just walked walk around but then who did we walk home after this later who or what happened after the Seder that's true it must have been a few years ago because when you did the Seder with us you didn't make it to the phone oh I didn't you had Marable of the Seder oh my goodness so okay so you needed to disprove my assertion which I don't remember making that assertion that Seder okay no but not even now looking at your at your success in music it makes no sense that I would have said that then it's that understand the logic it doesn't make any sense but anyway that the second question is you said that you you would want to prove that you can be successful without god-given talents so where did you acquire your talent same place I got the light was off break off brand talent you've got a knock off from alternate source knock off talent I mean I you know I mean I I yeah till today when I watch out from freed in his element it's like mind blowing so I don't think there's any comparison there and nevertheless I have some fun songs you know I mean I might make like I take preschool rhymes and make them into international smash hits I don't think all that god-given talent I think you can call that a bit of luck gravity-defying feet gravity defying feet like a bumblebee is not supposed to fly and and nevertheless moisture Sokol says you should not try to be the next da from free because you are Benny Friedman absolute power in your own right you know this man must you're so cold do you owe him money or something I'm just kidding so Yuri questionnaire commented Cordish are photoshops Slava be horosho Yuri Kushner just so you know who we're dealing with here who this scoundrel is Yuri is the one who sent you a message when you first came out with the song telling you that your Russian is not bad for a Polish your Russian isn't that bad for a Polish guy yeah so Yuri has always been the most honest sounding sounding board and we'd like to recognize his presence here on our chat and the Russian is very very good for a Polish although it's not hundred percent true because we're half polish half Russian like every Jew in the world I have never I have never yet met a Jew if unless they're Persian I have never met a Jew who is not half Russian and half Polish look even Poland Poland itself is half Russian half Poland absolutely absolutely I mean not that's my name it was like what did I say okay behind the the songs that you that you have first I just want to tell you just as a shameless compliment your ability to sniff a hit from from a tune is very uncanny and I gotta say with no offense to anybody else that they are those who have tried to sniff hits and their ability to sniff it is very canny your ability to sniff a hit is very uncanny and it's definitely god-given and I remember the first time I heard the tune for yesh tikva and I thought this is a very catchy schleppy tune and but you know you were early in your career I didn't want to disappoint you so I reserve judgment Yuri question it would have been more honest but I wasn't so honest he's claiming now to be only pure Russian and not polish he says the only thing in him that's polish is his [ __ ] but so there you go so why are you saying you're not so that you are half Russian half Polish half of you is vodka that's you know there is every Russian is half vodka alright and every friend what guys polish so we used but I said yeah I'm he was a beautiful tunes gonna be great but then it came out and it took the world by storm so the ability to sniff hits is uncanny but there is something else and this I believe is also god-given but also from the family which is of course the family is god-given and that is you enjoy people you enjoy being with people you enjoy making people happy you aren't afraid of people and you're not afraid of an audience and this is something which is uh which is a very a very great gift to be able to get up there and be yourself and in my humble opinion just from as a fan and as it as a person who likes music it is what makes a nice singer enjoyable is if the singer is not overly worried about what the crowd is thinking and what the crowd is or how the crowd is reacting and ironically that is what makes the crowd enjoy it and react so I mean I have not come here today to simply compliment you for the remaining time of the show but I wanted you to know that they are that people who watch you appreciate the fact that you're just doing your thing and you're happy to share it which is a messiah so let me ask you some questions about this new album first of all the new album for those who are not familiar the new album is an album without any music and this is because many Jews don't listen to music during the period of time the holidays of Pesach and Shavuos or Pesach unlock volume at what moment period of 7 weeks approximately without getting into the background of the why this is a bit of a mourning the grieving period nationally for the Jewish people historically for the last 3,000 years approximately 2,000 years 2,000 years but in any case so you made an album without any music and a lot of the songs that you're singing they're just vocally are not yours and just music apparently that you like and it's beautiful it's really really nice other thing where can people buy this album is it is that only at the on that website comes it's in the rain it's not only there it's on it's on comes it's in the rain calm it's on mostly music calm it's on Negro music calm what's the easiest one for people to remember if they're listening here maybe I could post a link can I make a comment can I comment over here you could I think how could I oh how does one do this let me see it's it will be available that look we uploaded it let me tell you something I'm not even conscious fully of the fact that we have a CD out because today's Wednesday exactly last Wednesday Donnie gross the producer of the CD texted me and said hey let's make an a cappella album and we'll have it out to record it in two days and have it out Tuesday and let's do it why not not doing anything I'm not doing anything so I said okay we literally we recorded the first note on Thursday and the last note on Monday night like this is unprecedented in my experience so like I'm not even fully aware of the fact that we release the CD because I was fully aware fact that we were working on a CD so it's very so it we uploaded it to the distribution the online distribution last night and it will go up when when whenever iTunes clears it and it might be there's a slow backlog I don't they have all their workers in I'm not sure what's going on exactly but it will be available on YouTube on iTunes eventually but for now it's available on those websites that I mentioned I can post a link if I can figure out how to post a comment over here alright don't know how to do that I just simply do not know write strange that I can't put the comment huh yeah I'll put a comment in a second on the on the Facebook stream let me read you the link you have the link I just posted a yeah anyway if anybody wants to buy it you can go to the Facebook stream it's a website called Akuma's it's in the rain comes it is a Yiddish word for get together a single long it comes to Naren calm and you can buy it over there I just want to read you I don't know if you can see these comments that are coming up on the side can you see them yeah Shmuel Salomon he says do you still get nervous before going on stage for a concert that's a great that's a good question vana dude you still get nervous before going on a stage for a concert that's good oh I was gonna ask that very same question so what he'd say Benny but you have to be honest I'm not nothing single this is uh this is the honesty zone this is the circle of trust I get nervous before a show if I'm not sure about what's about to happen in other words if it's a show where I'm doing my material that I do every night and I know the musicians and I know we sound we did a soundcheck and everything's fine I or Hashem thank God I have no problem if it's a show like let's say I don't know if about of Calabasas dinnerware I'm doing songs that I've never in my life done before and the Bokashi I know them last two weeks so then I do get a little nervous because I just simply don't know what's about to happen in fact not only I don't know what's about to happen I don't know the songs they have about to sing so it's very nerve-wracking but it's also very exciting to sing songs that you don't sing every night and you know you just close your eyes dive right in and you see what happens right so that's basically the the the nervousness thing is if I'm if I'm confident with what's about to happen I have no problem if I'm not confident let's say about two if I'm even I'm about to say a story between you know between the song between two songs a story that I've never said before I'll be a little nervous if I'm saying the same stories that I've been saying you know I have a joke that I say okay that many look at obviously God's concert I mean look at this comment [Music] Annie what are you going there no no the next one nervous because the words mama she asked me I am how long oh nice I don't know if you know but as our concert when you're saying that in Farsi 99% of the persons when I asked them how they enjoyed it they said he sings something in Farsi they realize I take full blame for it but I'll share some of it with you if you want out we gave me a really really hard time maja mija emotional on we made a whole production to try to make the Persians happy that we sing something like hell we want mushy us now in Farsi and they didn't even know that we were singing Farsi anyway I married an announcement what that's an accomplishment right we snuck it in nobody noticed that we suddenly changed languages smooth yeah it's an it's a it's a unique approach to a concert we're trying to sneak things in without anybody noticing if you invite a bunch of people to a show and then try to do things that they don't notice but nobody should know what just happened right it's like a combination magic show and concert right it's a slider voice yeah no I just want to tell you I very much identify with this whole idea of how you said that if you don't know what's about to go in what's about to happen or if you sing if you're gonna sing a song when when you don't really know the song that you're nervous I gotta tell you I'm also whenever you're about the singer song that you don't know I'm also very nervous and this brings us to the Chabad of calabasas shows that you have done the shows that I've done are my are my favorite shows Thank You cars thank you because for that reasoning because these are songs that I have never done and will probably never do again and and it's exciting it's very exciting it's not you know what I mean it's not it's not what I do every day what I do every day that's exciting so Mohammed Kallang in allegiance with our with our furbot of Calabasas community the show I'm sitting in is our Cabana Calabasas show started to put on our Chabad of Calabasas hat if you can see it says a GBH Cabana Calabasas and the t g bh is stands for thank god burka show and i think your hat says something very similar what does this say huh thank you i shem but mine was written by bent by leo and yours was written by what's his name Joel what's his name Noah Newcomb Joey Newcomb I think Leo and Joey Newcomb might get it might get along right right fine actually but in a but both of them a same idea Thank You Hashem so beautiful brush M your connection with Kabbalah Calabasas is something that is a centerpiece of come out of Calabasas when people think about Chabad with people think about our house and the things that we've done and what has the things that we've done that our youth that are unique a garish engrossed bomb came up with the matzo bakery and and we came up with our with our annual concerts and we it's it's the highlight of the year and the only reason why it's so enjoyable is because you're totally cool about doing it and I think the only reason you are totally cool about doing it is because you feel no need to prepare for it whatsoever so what's the difference from this song that song songs I sing songs I don't so I don't know it doesn't matter because I'm not gonna marry her anyway so you just tell me whatever sucks like Victor Borge II you play the song that you sing the song you like the best cuz I'm gonna play the song I like the best and then the way nobody needs to be nervous everybody's happy everybody's doing their own thing so that has made the show beautiful exciting and real but I want to ask you which of the moments and our dinners or our concerts remained in your in your memory which of the songs or experiences or you know you're not gonna offend anybody just reflect for a second if you remember any special moments from one of our concerts a lot of the people from our community are watching and I'm sure they remember many of those moments to share with us a couple of years ago we did a tribute to the firefighters and playing I'm proud to be an American yeah that was very beautiful that's chills up my spine the very very first year we did shave on and I almost popped the blood vessel the very first year the songs and stories of the days of all yeah you know you know Jackie Mason's a joke that when George Bush had what'd he say and George Bush had went to the hospital with Werth with heart murmurs and Dan Quayle was vice president he said George Bush had a heart murmur and everybody else in the country had heart failure you had to be there point of the matter is when you almost blew a blood vessel right but that was it that was that was the first show it was very beautiful Calabasas Agoura Hills community center was very very nice those were the days I was were the day mall I want to tell you the thing with the firefighters yeah so the guy of the firefighters he is a guy named the fire chieftain I don't know if he's a chief or whatever he's the guy that got him all together and he's on he's a muffler in the firehouse and he said and his name is Hanrahan like Irish last name I believe Hanrahan and I introduced them as horn an you here can you hear me yeah anyway so I introduced him as horn a hand and then I found out that his name is Hanrahan so the next time I saw him was at the city of Calabasas state of the city address by the mayor and I saw the captain there and I went over to him and I said I want to apologize because I called you captain horn ahead at our concert and he said yeah no big deal no big deal and then the after I sat down from apologizing to him the mayor recognized the presence of the fire department and captain horn Han so I was I was collected but it was a very powerful moment with a lot of very powerful men me as needed yeah it was very special they met anything else yeah you see this camera this latest comment that just came in there's a transliteration version of yes Tikva and it is so cool can that be replicated for your other songs I just want to tell the public that the transliteration version of eh declare was written by my brother le so if you need all my other songs transliterated this is the this is that boy right here so we had some connection problems and I didn't hear one word you just said oh man don't worry I'm going your company don't worry about it at all I've got it here sit here in silence there's a common here there's a transliteration version of est Claude and it is so cool can that be replicated for your other songs so I said that the transliteration version I wanted to say to the public the transliteration of the Esteghlal was written by my brother le so if you need all my other songs transliterated talk to this man yeah unfortunate this connection is not so good can you hear me well only I can't hear you well I hear you very well so you know the story was a detriment when his students wanted him to get a hearing aid No ah now I hear you really nice try to give a short version of what you were saying before because I didn't hear let's say quick cuz the computer will get nervous there's a transliteration version of eh decline that is so cool can that be replicated for your other songs I just want to tell the public that that transliteration were a VHD file was written by my brother le transliteration or translation I'm sure she's talking oh I mean yeah it's probably translation where the song is written in English in rhyme mm-hmm yeah oh yeah oh she's right you wrote it they want more of those songs they should contact you it would be very nice if you could yes we should do that for all of your songs because it opens it up to a whole but it's not just about writing it it's about getting it you know sink down to the video and and put onto YouTube with the with the English so people can sing along first of all people understand what you're saying right Jacques Xavier Duque wants to know can you sing in Spanish - Benny okay so I guess what I'm coming we're just seeing in Spanish today okay Manny you want me to sing in Spanish to you okay here goes no way that people should know that you're switching languages I'm gonna sing the extent of the Spanish that I know be so mojado piso mojado that's the extent of my Spanish it's an important for people to know that mean the floor is slippery yes see it's important for people to know that and that's a message of life in general in life in general it's important for people to know that's that this you know it's it's basically a Spanish version of the whole world is a very narrow bridge because what if you finds out that the whole world is a narrow bridge plus that narrow bridge slippery like those signs that say the bridge freezes before the road right right for those who crew up the places where bridges freeze and rows and roads for easy so if you find out that call our Lanka Lokesh its on-road and piso mojado the main thing hey sassy roofing says I should leave the singing to you hey you know there is no there is no end to the hootsburgh that that you experience as a public figure sassy roofing we love you very much try to sing again try to sing again we'll get more yeah yeah because it gets the comments going it does that yeah anyway so Ben C ohm first of all I want to express my sympathy to you for people calling you I don't think people know the extent of the difference between the name benzio nor the name in Yemen it's almost like like eliyahu and Eliezer not that there's anything wrong with either of the names but they're not the same and you can't call a guy whose name's been see own you can't call them beyond it [Music] right walk correct the singing is bringing everybody out of the cracks of your ring benzion yes yes it's not a terrible hardship but it is something that I do have to deal with on a regular basis I want to ask you a serious question a serious and personal question the serious personal questions like this we are Labov ature Hassidim are you prepared for this by the way IV he's gulping dr. pepper we are Labov ature casa de Labarre Beatrice Hasidim have a repertoire of nagulu the son of Anna good name is Hebrew for melodies the the Habad melodies of which they are thousands or maybe hundreds are now there are many to I think two or three books full of sheet music of la bikina Glennon some of them have become so famous that people don't even realize that they're la Bamba chair songs but these are that these are Habad melodies and in fact ever since I've ramble came out with his Hasidic what you call it and a good name his tape of the his tapes of new gunam they've really become Universal and people are asking for them and Siddim of other communities are discovering them and loving them and there's what to love there there are some very very very beautiful mikonam and every every every Hasidic negan every Hasidic melody has depth and beauty and and it's it's it's it's just beautiful and authentic and when you're singing the gunam you feel it in your kiss kiss you feel it in your neshama so if you had grown up without nagging him you would be ignorant to the whole existence of these spiritual melodies then you would be free to pursue a modern Jewish music without any kind of nostalgia for the for the authenticity of the new of the Hasidic they would so here's my very serious question for you how do you how do you try or do you try when you're singing your songs when you're singing other modern songs what is the what is the feeling when you inevitably compare it to the gravity that the other new gunam have you understand what I'm saying to you it's not what I'm asking it's like this songs like it's like yes tickle even though even the melodious ballads they're beautiful but do you ever feel like stopping the concert and saying ladies and gentlemen do you want to hear you want to hear you want to hear a song and sing you a song and then belt out something like you know nickels lots of is children ignore because maybe maybe we just anyway what do you think in my and my latest album before this one I have a song called a hole yeah it's like mid-tempo poppy song and in the middle I put in the outer Deborah's cold lady the high part of the alter that is called a tease it could be I find that I have a hard time choosing hits that are slow slow songs ballads or things like that I'm much more lost when it comes to slow songs because I'm always comparing them to slow songs that I know - slowly gun him and like like there was actually a song that came out a few years ago peacefully peacefully oh I see you know you'll see you know see he's a mostly just beautiful song and it actually became pretty popular and when I heard that demo right the composer who's actually a cousin of ours Johann Gordon sent it to me and I right away compared it to the outer Devas coat lady and said yeah and it was like in two seconds it just wasn't for me and afterwards I thought slowed down there you gotta you gotta be able to try to separate the two I mean focus and see but it is a problem it is the problem that I am that I am struggling with on this a cappella album I really wanted to do a Habad song and then we decided to go with more song songs the people know when poppy songs and it's easy listening and not like cold shivers is a children again which would be like okay pause the CD close the light take our hi him like a husband I'm there first and let's sing a real song like I would love to do it though I even this morning I texted the producer I said now let's do a cappella how badly hoon him nobody will buy it but I don't know if nobody would buy it look at ivory most of em oh look they the the fact that I've ROM freed have Remmel came out with this Lubavitch and guna it's inevitable I don't think that he I don't that mean I never asked him but I don't think that he came out with it as a mixer to teach the world about you know gunam it's just that when a lobe arbiter sings for enough years eventually is going to have to come out with it with Babbitt really good because you want to sing them for people right how long even add that have been Tonya and on Europe and Yerevan overlap among these beautiful beautiful songs but you I you would think that there is this inevitable desire to share music from the neshamah which is what the look there we've all heard your stories many of your stories about about people in very difficult moments in their life telling you about how your music helped them and unfortunately or fortunately however you want to put it that happened to everybody now look at the beginning of this beautiful Pesach when this virus was in its its worst time I heard this song I feel about student I feel about daughter is a very very beautiful song about how God is there even during difficult times he's there even if you can't see him he is there etcetera etcetera and the song came out a few years ago and when and when 90% of the community listened to it they listened to it detached you know count the hate yeah even difficult times for Shem is there what a beautiful song but the words the words are devastating not necessarily in a the words arts so are so painfully true and realistic for people who are going through a difficult time and when we started going through this before Pesach when it was really really tragic and suddenly the song means so much more it means a thousand times more when when God forbid life life aligns with the message of the song so but that's but that's because of the lyrics so when you have a song that yesh tikva if you are not particularly hopeless in your life yes declares a nice song if God forbid a person is going through a situation where they are really teetering on the edge of hopelessness and suddenly they hear this guy with a nice voice singing yesh de quoi it shakes their it shakes their soul it's not just a nice song anyway but that's because of the lyrics the thing with no gunam is that they do that to you every time you listen to a song and they don't even have words and you don't have to be going through any crisis life itself is the is the experience that you're going through that then you get that then that they'll that this niggling addresses so I have a few times for our concerts in Calabasas I wanted to say to the crowd okay listen what here's what we gonna do now then he's gonna sing a song like nothing you've ever heard before like none of his music like none of the music that you've ever heard it's gonna be something very different maybe gonna take a little getting used to but this is music from the soul and sing ah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah anyway didn't happen I don't know if it will happen but I'm just imagining that when for the average of average labogen hosted this is true for a person who makes a career out of music it must be urgent it must be something very very pressing so I have no doubt you're gonna come out with an agouti Mountain hey is it a sham it's definitely on the on the to-do list but you know the the CD that I came out with previously before this one took me more than two years this one that I just did took me less than a week so I'm thinking I will you know up until last week I was thinking I have a lot of things that I want to do but you know I mean each one takes a long time so till I get to it it's gonna be another ten years now I'm rethinking that whole thing I can make our full CD in a month I could be done with my whole to-do list by Rosh Hashana they'd have to come up with a whole new to-do list so about a Habad collection is definitely something that I want to do is something that I will do believe me that I got pretty close to putting Habad song I like like I said on this a cappella song which song were you thinking of putting on which song was I thinking about putting on just need to get it started whoa oh I am [Music] first of all I see is happy that I'm leaving the singing to you I hope that makes them a little bit happier so very very nice sign behind triangle of Arafah the there are two things about Laguna about Lubov about Chabad or Hasidic melodies that make them that you can tell that that there's something else about that first of all the fact that they have been handed down however the word is pronounced punctiliously punctiliously punctiliously punctiliously I'm not even drinking anything hard and I can't pronounce them haha they have been handed down punk man tea good Nick is watching and he should help because he knows how to say this word but they have been handed down very carefully and precisely note by note by note and we know how they've survived because if you've ever been out of a bring in and saying a [ __ ] gone and changed a note you could get an eviction notice oh yes from those who are responsible the people that the fibroin who work for the committee to preserve the purity of the Habad melodies so the words they melodies have been handed down traditionally precisely in general in three generations and and then and if you deviate unnoted to you know there's a there's the famous lebara cheney goon mahalia Shama so I was at a wedding once together with my father-in-law's Langa's once and you know the custom comes out and it's a big celebration may hey oh oh thank you Shawn mafia so after the wedding my father-in-law says to me what are you going boo sighs I said what's the problem he's that's not how he goes I said how does it go he goes oh come on he's a white [ __ ] anagen you can't start changing her so whether you go home or whether you go there's actually a recording right there ever would be masonic edition so there's recordings of their ever singing and and i don't know if that ever goes oh they're HOTAS i'm not sure but that ever definitely goes yeah you may hey you don't you sure haha yes yes yes I remember that beautiful actually but the point is that that guy's people like my father-in-law and others have been keeping the new gunam in in line which means that they they are precise because they relate to connect the different parts of the neshamah and if you mess with them you'll break them and they won't work anymore and the other thing is that there are that there is an a song that you're not allowed to sing at the fact that there is a Hasidic a melody that you're not allowed to sing you're only allowed to sing it at special times whoever heard of a song that you're not allowed to sing like a copyright it's like no you can't say it out the DEP is making valid bobis whatever whatever the name is that people give it it's the only allowed to sing in a special times and Hopa and you test kiss flavor so loser anyway so you can tell already that there's something about this music that is that is sacred and anyway there's no I don't have any doubt that the fact that you were raised within the goodham impacts the way you sing even the regular modern music that you sync just the awareness that music is something so real it can it can not only get people to lift their feet they can get you can literally lift in a show what you think for sure there's no question about that even even even not spiritually speaking and not anything episode tarik even from a just of physical the the execution of the song even a leaf like I once saw you execute a song actually was why I one of our concerts yes I've executed many songs I'm sorry go ahead yes I'm sorry the execution of the song carry on this on this a cappella CD we did yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh who smoked oh yeah so the engineer says but what's a shmore wait what language I said no no no you're not understanding it needs to be whoa whoa yeah that's how it must be because that how you sing thanks was donnybrooks yes oh I like him already yeah because he was singing with me that part he was going oh yeah I said come on sing like I'm Ange whoa whoa I've read well has a song that he took from [ __ ] Carlebach so there's a legend in the family I'm sure from the world ania that karabakh called him and said what's been a that's not how it goes it goes Panera so yeah people since people are sensitive about that but that's because singing it's like it's like giving up if I giving a speech and changing essential words in the speech that changed the message of what you're saying it'd be just like changing the lyrics to mean something completely different or it's like repeating somebody's joke now you're messing it up right by the way the best way if a guy doesn't want to tell his classic joke or his classic story the best way to get him to tell it is to start telling it wrong it's of people who were by the devil for many years this works every single time sit there by the devil for many years and you're sitting around and you like to tell us something medicine your memories okay you know I'll repeat some of the stuff that I heard from you and then you start butchering it with LaBarbera scripta for the next three hours you can't stop them it's not what happens now what you know what let me tell you what happened that's what I'm asking you to do for the last 20 minutes go ahead with Anna Gonia if you change the lyrics of a song for example how can you come home to me while we remain apart right that changes the whole meaning of the song right but if you change the lyrics it everybody knows that it damages the song but if you change the tune then a gunam testified that it damages the song yeah I once I are surely around say Lubavitch we make every once in a while I'm not mauka in somebody's house and it's very very beautiful so I was singing once but Aisha no I'm not she lie lie lie lie me grumbling whatever so rabbi Garelick rabbi UFC gorilla could open our shrill was was videoing it am I saying the next thing I saw him and surely he says to me I sent it to my brother and my brother-in-law and he said all very nice very nice very nice oh oh I thought it took me like yes yes the daughter to collective English means he added he put in an unauthorized addition so this brings me to my next question or point the difference between Tati and other speakers oh let's do it make this soup like this soup so for those of you who live perhaps under a rock or some other hard surface Benny's father is also my father which is which is very exciting and his name is rabbi Friedman and he has a lot of videos on YouTube and thanks to our brothers Owlman he's millions and millions of views and very very popular and a very good man and a very good father point of the matter is that he that Tati has a very unique style and it strikes me that what is unique about the style is as a lake Nicias ooh that the faith ileus Lee ah Punk tell Linnaeus Lee oh you looked it up no Mandy are we saying you're right punctiliously because if we're not saying if we're saying it right that's a nice word if we're not saying it right that's really funny sounding word but the Benny Tati style is that the faith that he has in the message that he is saying allows him to say it without any drama he doesn't feel any need to add drama to the message because the message itself speaks for itself and it's also an unbelievable faith in the audience is an unbelievable high estimation of his audience that he believes that if you just say something and it makes sense people will appreciate it you don't have to shout and scream and gesture or just stick you late good effort but there are many speakers myself included who whenever you speak you get all weren't all ramped up and you start just circulating punctiliously and you you do not have and I'm not the you know just speaking openly here you don't have enough faith in the message itself or in your audience to just say it I mean I don't know I don't remember Einstein I was born shortly after he passed away but something tells me that when he was when he was teaching or sharing his theories he wasn't you know he equals C squared if e equals mc-squared then the e equals mc-squared everybody think about that and people thought about it and said you know what the man the man is right right by the way cracks me up how people talk about Einstein but that's a whole different thing people talk about yes so Einstein said e equals MC squared what's e energy what's m mass what's C I'm not sure but any case the people that are sure of it although we can google it the yeah I'd say that was a Huffman Einstein he didn't Google anything Google anything that's that stuff M represents of mass and c2 is the speed of light squared right exactly that's exactly what I was gonna say so c2 is the speed of light squared and why does C stand for the speed of light because that how they spelled speed in those days CPTED see c2 is the speed of light squared or x by itself oh okay anyway getting back to the point that at hand I'll tell you Tom a Amina invites a union a couple of years ago I sang the national anthem at the Brooklyn Nets game for a Chanukah day that they had a Jewish night that the Brooklyn Nets and before I was talking to Tati and that he said to me just sing the song the Finnish hooligan everybody who sings the national anthem they always want to add up so certainly this a certain thing the national anthem is the national anthem just sing it yeah it's a and it's very very hard to control because you have to be a Khan you have to be a count the conduit that he talks about here translating the Devas are bringing he used to translate the Devas for Indians live simultaneous and discovered that the only way to be successful in doing it is to simply be a conduit you cannot you cannot be an interpreter you just have to be a conduit the never speaks and you simply repeat what the debe is saying you're not giving an interpretation in music there is such a thing as this singer gave his interpretation of this song a musical interpretation and four new gunam are not supposed to have any interpretation what happened to you here we go Makara when I lay there no but the this them you didn't the song itself is the treasure and you are simply the one giving it a voice as opposed to giving it a voice and telling everybody what it means by emphasizing the points of the song that you think are really nice like this is where you're supposed to be really exciting excited you know I recorded a song once that never made it to see the light of day then I played it for Tati and I'm singing my kishkes out you played it for Tati and then you want to know why you never made it to the light of day right you played for somebody who's gonna be a yes-man right Patti said to me I don't know it sounds like you're working harder for this song than the song is working for you work if you say something and it's an okay Bart it's not great but it's okay if you ah oh man that gives it extra pagas but if the work is working harder for you then you're working for it and that's a real part yeah it's almost like when you speak you are both conveying the message and also pantomime me the reaction that you expect from the people right here here's the Vaart and here's how you shall react and of Cour you are doing the reacting for everyone so no one else has to do it but when you simply say the point and you do don't do any of the reacting and you leave that for the people who are listening to react then the same thing with the music anyway that's enough serious stuff so here's where the here's a question I heard of reminyl speaking a few days ago he was being interviewed by simcha and some class time about some special moments I've almost said the most special moment oh one second minty good nick said Paul Mandy enough to spell it for us we know how to spell it obviously I own you ell us ly if to pronounce it Punk tear honk Tilley or punctiliously alright Thank You Mandy but sovereign law said the most the obviously the most the best concerts are the ones where the crowd gets into it where the crowd is into it and you're not begging begging them to sing along you're not back in they're into it a hundred percent so tell me when did you have such a crowd quite often you get that kind of a crowd pretty pretty often especially when it's younger younger people older people less older people like to to sit quietly and then tell you afterwards I really really enjoyed that but I remember a couple of maybe two years ago I was in Israel and I went to a yeshiva they have like summer vacation ish sort of yeshiva where it's a little bitty Shiva a little bit vacation so they had a concert concert started like 9 o'clock and we were supposed to be done by 11 like 100-200 before 3:30 4 o'clock in the morning we were still going it was like it was fire they just was outdoors in the middle of the desert somewhere in the and it was they just it was impossible to stop them there's kept going and going and after physically usual usually what will happen is after a certain amount of singing you just can't sing anymore but the the energy that was going back and forth that night was like crazy so that yeah I mean you have a good crowd we did a concert for about of Calabasas you know they get up in the clap it's very very hectic dancing through the through the tables how about Calabasas is definitely one of my favorite audiences thank you and and when my son Shalem joined me at the in the driveway for that performance remember that in your in your in your yard we had it oh yeah between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur right show them stole the show so that was beautiful but yeah I mean if you have teenagers young people yes hey Shalom is here hi my room thank you sir for allowing me to use his room it's a one quiet room in the whole house how funny is that yes very very punctilious well then challenge oh hi do you do you remember being in Calabasas well Charlene what's your what's your father what is your favorite song from your father you have one okay let me ask you a secret question many dog years problem is your father is your father your favorite singer was Denise yes yes he is that's very nice okay Betty you're gonna

alas playing for Benny in Miami deep some years ago backing for many in Miami Beach some years ago was a great musical opportunity great talent amazing performer all that then you know that is you see you I need I need to see it Luis Manuel alas I [Music] can't find it yes Shia Rothenberg the secret ingredient and Benny Friedman is making songs in two hits this is true Ashleigh violin you are my favorite singer and my kiddos love you you are very much appreciated here thank you very much thumbs up when shelling yeah yeah some very good for comments over here so what's your plan what's your plan for the message that your young people gather I remember at the birthday at the Werner program in the mountains of Vail the young people they take you very very seriously like our uncle all of our Shalom Yankel Krantz told his wife fate Santa Fe who said I don't want the people to call me at everything I don't feel like it Everson and he said they already consider you that evidence so you might as well be a tepid seen the the young people take you very very seriously not that the old people laugh at at your music but the young people they take you very very very seriously I was watching it and I'm sitting and listening to you you have a power I wrote a letter to Justin Bieber a few years ago you know Justin Justin Bieber ah yeah Justin yeah yeah you know just and I wrote him a letter I said you have more file of more followers than Moses you have more followers than anybody in history this was a bet when Justin Bieber had more followers than anybody in the world what is what is your message to them because he lives in Calabasas so once you get together with a hundred young people in Calabasas and talk to them and inspire them and tell them something so they can take something that has some content and some some value but anyway what is your message for the youngsters when they when they gather around you and they give you a chance to talk let's see what do you want from them I think that we have to be conscious of the fact that we have zero idea how much we influence the people around us and we have to take that very very seriously way to think very seriously because we underestimated all of us we all under estimate that and secondly we are called upon in today's generation to be as great as Hashem knows that we can be [Music] no wait that's good stop making a scene with your uncle and cousins I was in [ __ ] finish singing your songs select presents you thank you so much that is a great name Benny's point about how every one of us has unbelievable power influence on the people around us and we should not underestimate and we should take advantage of it is well taken and it's a and it's a point that's worth its weight in gold people have influence and whatever you're using it or not it's being used you're influencing people what if you're trying to or not so you might as well be a mindful of mindful intentional influence and not just an accidental influence and Bobby's not here to tell you that I think that my great job of doing of having a mindful and intentional influence on the people around let me talk for himself hello when you were middle of saying and then influence on people around you gotta be that's great as Hashem knows you can be right so uh like the famous story of the of the rabbi who came to the lab and said I can't continue teaching a series because I feel like it's making me a little bit big-headed right what's going to my head going to my head so they never responded you should become at sibylla's all from the redden Alberta citizens 2000 [Music] you can take into consideration your own spiritual growth or spiritual questions or whatever it is when it's a question of helping others you have to be as great and as influential and as everything that you possibly can be and there's no excuses today everybody is a public servant and we are called upon to change the whole world literally and we have to do everything that we can think of that might be possible to do it especially especially today with the internet where everybody can reach everybody in the whole world in in under a minute we all have to do what we can and and that's it there's no such thing as a private citizen everybody is called upon to do what they can and and like the driver says now um um if you are capable of cutting diamonds and instead you bake bread whereas a nice thing but if you're capable of cutting diamonds so then it's and you can you bake bread instead then it's considered like you're committing a sin because you have a potential that you're not filling and that's just not acceptable yeah ms just so you know you're your greatest fans do not exist yet because I've you if we can just judge from our own experience our the music that we listen to when we were children the soundtrack of our childhood if you had a good childhood then the laser and listen to is or is that young yeah you said that you had a good childhood and someone said like I am yes more question was a very good childhood then then that music becomes the treasure soundtrack for your life and the people that grew up with your music are not yet grown up I mean when when did you put out your first album I actually met a guy a couple of months ago in the choir who told me he grew up with my music and I said I can't roll with my music I'm young how do you grow up with my music he was 10 years old when my first CD came out and now he's now he's 20 rangy that's good so there you go so you heard so we're starting already people thinking oh yeah so the soundtrack of your childhood so which song symbolizes the soundtrack of your childhood I know it shouldn't ask you these big sweeping questions without some preparation so much just to wrap it up what is this which song of modern music embodies it's not to say because any time any time I'll hear anything that I that that that played when I was growing up I get excited like those Miami Boys Choir just now what we got for over a quarantine we got access to the Miami Voice Choir video collection and I put on one of the things and they're singing I don't know what they were singing Bob our own bomber row home and I'm just like I can't believe it this is amazing you can smell the basement yes I don't know like zimmer ha ha ha yeah and I feel bad for kids who are growing up now under then they're like their gears that the ANCA say is gonna be - oh god I sure you know you're not so humble you are so humble let's make let's make a shout out to the family first of all to our parents and Crown Heights okay look I um hopefully they'll get out soon for good behavior they've been under house arrest since before pacer did they say to themselves like so many other people and yeah claim to be enjoying them enjoying their life in the their little apartment in Crown Heights of our Hashem and by the way the that moment that the latest Habad of Calabasas concert when we sing my mother Shabbos candles for mommy that was a tribute to your willingness provides and do things unprepared that was very nice it was cold to our brother Yossi and Miriam and

particular singing wants to hear Benny sing something tell us and he'll sing it and then we'll wrap it up Nina Berger our good friend Nina says always enjoying Benny singing at kabob of Calabasas gala nice shinny gala is like remote from Pearlstein says no offense taken I don't know what she means I don't know how we could have offended her nobody contact that we want to start a petition to make all weddings should end earlier so that display singers and musicians and wedding hall managers and everyone could get home earlier and could have a little bit of a more normal lifestyle so I said I don't know you gotta call me back when I'm when I'm swamped with work not when I'm doing nothing I'm calling to get to even one wedding I would much prefer to start a petition where people start taking their shoes off on to come into the house because it's so gross living in Brooklyn and Corona and I just marched into someone's house it's like I don't know give me the heebie jeebies what do you think about that oh are you only allowed to start one petition is that the new rule 1 petition per household yeah I don't particularly enjoy when you walk into someone's house and they ask you to take your shoes off I know so how your place are the relationship yes it's terrible so I so how about just not walking into people's houses that's it we're there yeah that's where we are now it's funny in Calabasas if you know maybe a year ago whatever was an evacuation because of the fire latest evacuation cause the latest fire and we were all clamoring that the authorities should let us back into our homes because they weren't letting us back there was a mandatory evacuation we couldn't go home everybody was upset to be in our house and now the same people let us out let us out you want to get out of our house I'm dude you want to be in your house do you want to be out make up your mind you can't be clamoring about both okay everybody can you say the story about the two boys who or the fire was coming close to their house and they put on still and can you say that story and explain why it's so amazing the story is that there's two boys that I know and one and the fire was cut was on Shabbos the fire was burning and they decided that they're gonna do something to save the neighborhood because the fire was burning up to their neighborhood they live up I don't even remember where Jim Steinberg used to live all of us show them where Gavin Rosenberg lives were these but they're adding ham and Adamsville anyway so they live up over there and the fire was climbing the hill towards their neighborhood and they decided they got to do something to save their neighborhood to save their their block so the two of them went and got there chillin and they put on their children and they and they prayed to God and in by the way PS their neighborhood did not get burnt it burned up the hillside excuse me Gavin Rosenberg who lives there has showed me footage of the flames literally burning his the edge of his backyard so it singed till the end till the till the edge and then it stopped what's so beautiful about it is that it was Shabbos and you're not supposed to put on tefillin or Chavez so when I heard about this and I heard that the boys put on tell him what's so beautiful about it is that there was a time in history that if there was a Jew who didn't know enough to know that you don't put on tilling on Shabbos there wasn't a chance that this Jew was gonna put on tefillin period in other words if you weren't a knowledgeable Jew if you weren't a a student of the religion if you weren't a scholar then you weren't when you weren't in the program today because of the way our people have have changed and have and have rolled with the times people are doing mitzvahs out of such plain pure sincerity that the the action is so pure that it is not even a comp accompanied by even the most basic knowledge sometimes another another kid here in Calabasas who was telling me how they went to uh went to a restaurant on face off with his family and they brought him a whatever it was astronomy sandwich non kosher restaurant and he asked them he says no I asked you to bring me just without the bread because we can't have bread but the pastrami is not kosher the ability to do mitzvahs without waiting for your knowledge to be perfect without waiting for you to be perfect is so perfect that it's really a wake-up call to those who do have knowledge of their you disguise to try obviously not to minimize your knowledge it's always important to learn it to grow but to try to do mitzvot is with the same sincerity with the same raw purity of the mitzvot that these boys put on film with on Shabbos and I wish I myself that what I put on tefillin on a regular weekday that I could do it with the same heartfelt sincerity that those boys but on filling on Shabbos nice kind yes that was indeed a good story so it's by the way it's it's a kind of a story that you can appreciate and that you can get goosebumps from if you appreciate the beauty of every individual Mitzvah but if the other side is a way of life and that's all the story is gonna fall flat because if there's no way of life then what's the point of putting on thrilling one time especially if you're putting it on when you're not even supposed to put on filling on Shabbos I do that it's hard to it's hard to explain to someone who doesn't doesn't enjoy that that particular richness of an individual Mitzvah but if you appreciate the fact that how much a Shem loves each one of us and how much Nahas he must have gotten from boys who thought what can we do that would be a merit and decided to put on tefillin and they didn't not even have it enough knowledge to know that you don't put on tefillin on Shabbos and yet those people with their with their deficient knowledge know the most important thing that if you want to do something for your community do something for our shed nice the beautiful thing so we asked about who people want to hear a particular song euni Kushner wants to hear ha - oh and Shia Rothenberg wants to hear the new visa kini do you know what he's referring to sure do ok so let's hear the Russian lyrics of the ha - uh please put in an extra effort to make it particularly Polish sounding so that Yuri will be happy gah - Oh Nabu haha show
