stamfordhill “To day is all goishe music shmuzik becous the words what thay put in the songs is veriy dirty and we just take hileger words and we put it on the goishe songs”
sorry to tell you, but peasant songs were more commonly known as drinking songs, as they were sung when the peasants were smashed off their mind, doing all sorts of pritzusdikka things with women not their wives. so tell me again, how music today is so differant then 300 years agao, when the “heiligeh” rebbes made goyish songs “heilig” from the “holy of holies”? that is utter nonsense. any song taken from goyim, and made jewish is in fact, and is in reality jewish. you may no like it, but three hundred yearts ago, there were old folks like you and feiun, and others who didnt “get” waltz music, and thought it was loud and obnoxious compared to the chanting music of the church that came before it.
if you dont like the music, turn it off. you will never ever find a posek that people actually hold by in the masses, that will asser such a thing as this clown luft wants to do. he is a rosha, and i hope the rabbonim dont get taken for a ride like they did the lipa ban again. if they do, all credibility with the young generation may be lost forever, both here and in eretz yisroel.
