tapes those tapes had on them the the highest negan in the world everyone has their first stacks of tapes where you've been discovering things for the first time and uh i definitely wanted to sing some of those those first time going back to those first times discovering things so um i think uh you just recorded it so beautifully it's the negan that yehuda and i found due to salmon and i found july 1970s we didn't find it in july it's from july 76 right after uh and tabby ramshall wrote this [ __ ] that has changed the world in my opinion but you might hear that good statement a lot [Music] yes [Music] [Applause] i am [Music] ah [Music] oh [Music] i am [Music] i join us [Music] oh [Music] you know i gotta say out of i mean like you said you could say that about everything the best thing in this [ __ ] specifically i think that it opened up just a world of ruggish for me to feel one good i don't know everybody's different they're certain to know us in this specific [ __ ] in that just like you know especially because the the the composing tape that was one of the tapes that i remember listening to like when i was in 10th grade or like 11th grade something like that and and and he said that line that i like that i i don't want to be like repetitive but like that line it's just it changed my life that way yeah say it say it again he said it you hear there's a lot of commotion in the room there's a lot of talking in this match and he said something to the effect of you know the windows are open people are walking around isn't that he says kevin if you're gonna sit sit if you're gonna stand stand but please be quiet and mom is dragging this out of my heart and when he said that oh so that's what that's what a [ __ ] is that's what a nugget is a and and it just made such a like i can never stop listening to that again i can't it's it's uh yeah it also ruins you because you can't listen to like 90 percent right yeah that's the i always like what like what else is being dragged out of the heart you know that that's because if it's not judge of the heart it's good it may be good music yeah let me get specific let's sing another one let's sing one from here with one that he wrote on the moshav [Music] he will do it in the major i love this [ __ ] and he wrote this here i'm not sure which column it was but uh we'll send a few from here [Music] oh [Music] no [Music] me [Music] [Applause] [Music] my [Applause] [Music] [Applause] i [Music] from here [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Applause] [Music] [Applause] oh [Music] is [Music] myself [Music] is [Music] hey [Music] what was the first torah from what you remember learning um yeah i'm assuming that you knew that there weren't a good name before yeah anything i did i did so we all grew up with songs that was like music but western the first torah i ever heard was him explain with parasha's vaira and he was talking about he's talking about the al-qaeda but before he got to the arcade he was building the whole thing up and it was like a a moment where we're also like in iguana you hear as it's new and it stays with you so there's this tire that i never forget it whenever greets the angels he says to them like he wants to give them water he says a little bit of water but then when it comes to the to the meat the shepherd right runs it gives them so much meat so he's wondering like why why is so stingy when it comes to water and after with meat it's not so he said over there something that's so practical he says you can the truth is that you don't need just one drop of water to live on and mime ella so you all you really need is one voice to keep in your pockets for your whole life that's really all you need to make it in this world and i feel like that with like every entire he says i feel like that with almost every [ __ ] just like yeah the bus you could keep on going to the finest restaurants to find all different types of flesh but all you need all you really need is a little bit of water i never heard anyone talk to talk to her like that before in my life so let's sing like uh it's precious [Music] and we'll uh share a little bit about the history of this [ __ ] [Music] out point that out to the character did anybody notice one note that was different over here uh basically and the way this [ __ ] the way this [ __ ] really came down was a little bit different the way the world sings it usually everyone everyone sings are usually like this [Music] but when he wrote it it was like this [Music] that note is a dagger so sing with us [Music] i [Music] my [Music] i [Music] wrote this two different words and he wrote it in memory of the six million says [Music] just think about those pictures of germans cutting the pears and beards of hidden standing around them laughing at them i just saw particularly yesterday and nothing can console us until mashiach comes with those pictures [Music] says [Music] but i didn't go away i didn't go astray i didn't deviate from your torah no matter how many germans laughed at me i stayed so close to your torah not one bit so this is uh this is how the [ __ ] really uh originally was written was composed [Music] is [Music] a [Music] see [Music] i am [Music] it's [Music] i [Music] is [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] i [Music] am [Music] [Applause] i [Music] i [Music] in the morning [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] like [Applause] [Music] is [Music] [Applause] [Music] i [Music] i [Music] oh okay this is one you love it listen you love this one friday night [Music] m [Music] my [Music] me [Music] i am [Music] foreign [Music] oh [Music] my [Music] me [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] i [Music] i [Music] over here i get emotional yeah i don't spend as much time i haven't spent as much time as you have in this room i remember coming here for the first time oh yeah yeah 20 20 years ago the first time but you see all the videos and pictures and and i always think about what it was what it must have been like to be a to just if you could catch time and space and stand by there friday night when uh when a major chord begins right he always used to say like when friday night when he starts down and he knew something major so he says he felt fire he felt mouthless didn't matter what it was i have this memory over here for many years on a friday night when the one of the greatness of the great city they used to live here of the show he passed away used to grab me over here dance three steps back three step forward into the dish and he said that that's the moment that you could really feel your [ __ ] that's what he said do you remember in november that when we were living in l.a and we were listening to vincent's chavez tape and back then it was on these boom boxes and one of the speakers wasn't working only one side was working so we only got ben xion's base harmony and miss mother david do you remember i mean let's sing it i remember [Music] i [Music] uh [Music] i [Music] me [Music] i am [Music] i [Music] i [Music] i [Music] am [Music] oh [Music] hi [Music] [Applause] [Music] a [Music] a [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] i [Music] oh [Music] is [Music] is [Music] is [Music] okay [Music] i [Music] am [Music] again i'm saying the truth you probably know more i've listened to speak more tired than probably anybody i mean maybe in the world it's possible problem question is like this have you ever heard of give hezek or it'sa hajrafa to something similar to what we're going through right now that we're not doing this in vienna or in front of 2 000 people or something like that i mean how long is this going to go on for it's like it's crazy already the first zoom i did after like a day after purim it's already like almost hanukkah it's like enough you know so the spirit of you know was your side like what would you say i'm going to get you back with a really good question soon i'm just telling you sorry um i think two two things two classic things come up one is that the fact that we're able to even communicate with everybody right now is is because technology you would always say that when the 747s came out and they were able to like bring a lot of people to israel fast a chunk at a time so and faster than like abba nicholia or mom making aliyah she took much longer uh back then she came on a 747 huh let's go let's stick with obviously but the three-week boat pilgrimage from argentina um so so ah transistor so he said that it's not that people are able to come now to erit israel because there happened to be 747s he said that people need to get to islam so fast and therefore hashem created 747 so it's not that oh we're able to use zoom because this is a technology that exists now is that people need to stay close to each other or if but on whatever level it is and hopefully hopefully makata should hopefully sanctify it that's one thing about the medium through which we're connecting the other thing that he's that i heard him say once me so much because i believe it's happening right now on the fourth day of circus i think so what's this shallow show so what are these hoshanah save us these three hours so on the arizona who he learned from so much and he shares the same your site month the vision is it was just a few days ago the original used to say these shallow shows these last three hours he says before mashiach comes there's going to be this like last three hours i don't know exactly what that means in the minus the time but there's going to be this last kufa where it's going to be the hardest thing in the world is to have a moon it's going to be harder than anything else we ever did and the original said it's going to feel like in order to survive you have to climb a wall and that was the last thing the vision has said before he died he was about to die so they asked the virginia why are you telling us this shrimp shall almost said it the reason i told them he's like you have this is the only way you're going to hold yourselves together once i'm gone he said i think what it means is that how do people walk walls walk on walls one person stands against the wall and another person stands on his shoulder and then another person stands on his shoulder another person stands on his shoulders so i feel like this is like there's nothing left there's no reduction left for us to figure out only here to to dig the wells of all the tyres that sadikin left for us so the mindset like what would he say to us right now brother it's just you're in the show it's it's in the show it's been a long three years long three hours it's been a long three hours i don't know how long that's these three hours last for but that's maybe maybe but i don't know let me ask you something if he was here right now he said hey brother eitan what's in one of your nikon name what do you think i want to hear wanna share with what what's your name which negan would you choose to sing for him i'll put my guitar down and run right i would probably trick him and sing one of the like the unknown ones of his [Music] i always thought like i always imagined if [ __ ] came into a school or in a concert and he heard he heard people going [Music] but what but let's get back to making you feel uncomfortable so what which one which one uh would you do after you threw your guitar down and ran away when you came back can i came back and you still that way [Music] on your porch [Music] sure emergence [Music] yes [Music] i am [Music] i [Music] i [Music] is [Music] am [Music] i i'm [Music] is [Music] don't let go [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh i am [Music] [Applause] [Music] i [Music] i [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] i [Music] is [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] do [Applause] hey [Music] [Applause] [Music] i [Music] so one of the perks about being at this role now is that you're here now yeah i'm here it's making sure huh making sure is uh is the fact that i have my family around so i have my brother and my father is here too so maybe abba can come and sing a song with us while mommy watches all of us together yes yes [Music] there's [Music] okay [Music] my [Music] ah [Music] i [Music] i [Music] oh [Music] any [Music] [Applause] [Music] i am [Music] oh [Music] i [Music] am [Music]

85 that's the only i think i remember him i had this like thing in my head that maybe i was way there yeah yeah do you remember gumpkin like i remember him in the in the lobby i don't know why that in my head so he comes to you and he says hey [ __ ] in about 30 years from now you're going to write this [ __ ] i'm really proud of you one that he would be proud of um i feel better that you're also thinking no i'm okay with thinking it's okay [Music] foreign [Music] i [Music] [Applause] oh [Music] i [Music] hey [Music] i i am [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] yay [Music] i [Music] oh [Music]
