Reply To: Jewish Music Sometimes Rubs Me the Wrong Way

Shopping613: I’m glad it works for you, but it may be a generational thing. As an older person who spent 11 months saying kaddish for each of my parents, I relate to Kaddish in a different way, and maybe others who have to recite Kaddish can appreciate what I am saying or why I react as such. But I have a similar reaction to what I regard as sacred text being what I feel is trivialized with music that obviously has been influenced by non-holy origins.
