MUST LISTEN: Shulem Lemmer's gorgeous cover of Eden Golan's 'October Rain'
"October Rain" is more than just a song; it's a rallying cry, a lament, and a promise. As the lyrics declare, "I promise you that never again," it encapsulates the nation's resolve to prevent future tragedies and to emerge stronger from this period of darkness.
"October Rain," originally deemed too politically charged for international audiences, has been released in its raw, authentic form and has been covered by renowned Jewish singer Shulem Lemmer, a rising star in Jewish music from Brooklyn, New York. Shulem is from the Orthodox Hasidic community, and is the first singer from this background to sign with a major label, Decca Gold.
The track, with its haunting melody and evocative lyrics, serves as a stark reminder of the events that shook Israel to its core. Lines like "Someone stole the moon tonight / Took my light" resonate deeply with a population still grappling with the aftermath of terror.
In these challenging times, "October Rain" offers a moment of collective catharsis, allowing listeners to connect with the deep well of emotions that many have struggled to express. Despite Israelis being "still wet from this October rain," we continue to dance in the storm, holding onto hope for brighter days ahead.
Lyrics:
Writers of the history
Stand with me
Look into my eyes and see
People go away but never say goodbye
Someone stole the moon tonight
Took my light
Everything is black and white
Who's the fool who told you boys don't cry?
Hours and hours and flowers
Life is no game for the cowards
Why does time go wild
Every day I'm losing my mind
Holding on in this mysterious ride
Dancing in the storm
We got nothing to hide
Take me home
And leave the world behind
And I promise you that never again
I'm still wet from this October rain
October rain
Living in a fantasy Ecstasy
Everything's meant to be
We shall pass but love will never die
Hours and hours and flowers
Life is no game for the cowards
Why does time go wild?
Every day I'm losing my mind
Holding on in this mysterious ride
Dancing in the storm We got nothing to hide
Take me home
And leave the world behind
And I promise you that never again
I'm still wet from this October rain
October rain October rain
לא צריך מילים גדולות רק תפילות
אפילו כשקשה לראות
תמיד אתה משאיר לי אור אחד קטן
