Which Singers Are Your Top 3 Favorites, (list by order)

I would never put a “witch” singer on my top 3 list!

I think witches should be burned at the stake!

Personally, I am a huge fan of Yosef Karduner and Adi Ran.

My fav singers are not usually “witch”es 😉 You may want to edit spelling in the title of this thread?

Choosing only 3 is hard, but as of now it stands at:

1- avraham fried

2- shloime daskal

3- mbd

**EDIT** oops- I see another poster cought the spelling already, sorry.

According to Rav Amnon Yitzchak all “WITCH SINGERS” are really “SNAKE CHARMERS” who have no chailek in Olam Haba.

1 shwekey

2 boruch levine

3 Yehuda and Pruz tie

Maydad Tasa, Baruch Levine, Shwekey, LIPA, Shloime Gertner

AinOhdMilvado,

Burning at the stake is not one of the four methods by which Jews administer death penalties.

My tops are Yaakov Shwekey, Baruch Levine, Dovid Gabay and mbc and ybc. There are many other great ones but these are my favorites.

how in the world did i leave out dovid gabay from my favorites? he’s tied with boruch levine

I fixed the spelling.

Mod FINALLY. That took a looong time 🙂

current singers? i dont know,

i like MBC the music is very rich and full, sometimes i think singers should pay more attention to the words they’re matching up with the tunes.

i like the old

abish brodt,

yonasan schwartz

shwekey- the older ones

Easy One:

1) Mordechai Ben David

He has everything a singer should have; a) A VOICE, he has such a rich, electrical (i.e. energetic) voice that he has the ability to turn a simple tune into a hit (i.e. Moshiach). b) SONGS, he has some of the nicest songs ever to be had in contemporary chassidic music. c) MUSIC, some of his tapes have unbeleivably beautiful musical arrangments (i.e. Neshama, Let my people go,etc. etc. d) PERFORMANCE SKILLS, I think that in this respect it’s undisputed that he is the king of concert. The grace and agility with which he dances and moves is surreal!!!!

Chosson- you took the words outa my mouth (or my keyboard!)

1. Lipa Lipa Lipa!!!!!

2. Avraham Fried

3. Yaakov Schwekey

4. MBD

5. everyone else, I love music!

d a – who is cb1?

I think the CB trio that he mentioned, refers to 3 kids that sang by a wedding in Boro Park last week.

Is that correct, d a?

If you read what I wrote,

3. cb1’s younger two brothers (they sang beautifully at their uncle’s chasunah recently!)

you would see, I wrote cb1’s younger two brothers. I didn’t say anything about a CB trio…

And no, the wedding was not last week…

i don’t know how i left out shloime dachs either. he’s tied w/ baruch levine. there. now my list is complete.

oh, wait, my brother and father, and all the men in my extended family. im telling u, whenever the whole family gets together for a simcha, u feel like ur up with all the melachim and they are all singing for H-Shem. there is no better way to describe it (yeah i know it can’t really compare)

On a side note, HashemLovesMe, why did you write H-Shem but your username writes out Hashem? Just curious…

There are 3 categories of Jewish music with basically one singer heading each.

1. Shlomo Carlebach type music – #1 singer Shlomo Carlebach

2. MBD music – #1 singer Mordechai Ben David

3. Everything else – #1 singer Avrohom Fried

Avramele Fried once said. A singer like MBD comes only once in a generation….. But WHY in MY generation?????

1) abie rotenberg- music, just pure yidish music

2) rabbi boruch levine- songs that strike a chord in my neshama

3) avremel with his chasidisher bren

1. Chaim Yisrael

2. Shlomo Carlebach

3. Avrohom Fried

(honestly, 3 is tough. after that it would probably be Benny Friedman, Arik Einstein, Shloime Dachs, Shlomi Shabbat, MBD, Shloimie Gertner)

Wow,

A lot has changed over the past 5 years

Simcha leiner

Baruch Levine

Yaakov shwekey
