TTT :: Sois Osis • Dovid Gabay

So vanilla as to not even be terrible. It's just not...anything. Lyrics are indiscernible, harmonies are haphazard, and yet, this tune almost escaped being TTT'd until the vocal effect at 3:09.

TTT :: Speaking of Perfection...

HT:BW

TTT :: Yi-ha-li-lu • Yeshiva Boys Choir

This was literally shown to me on a silver browser. Top news on the Jew sites. Wow. It's like a parody of itself, only you're not sure if it's a willing partner to the joke.

TTT :: Hashem Melech • Motty Steinmetz

The choir and orchestra opens sound very promising. That is all.

TTT :: Lakol Zman • Amiran Dvir

Apparently popular on the Israel wedding circuit, Amiran (holding the keytar) is now presented for your Tuesday enjoyment.

TTT :: Haleluhu • Nissan

Yossi Green: WHERE ARE YOU?

"Nissan" is a Shlomo Simcha production. This song is brought to you and harmonized by Yossi Green.



The sad is that I get tremendously nostalgic—Stockholm Syndrome?—when hearing this song, as it played incessantly in "86", our London flat. Eh.

TTT :: Yalla • Yaakov Shwekey

From Libi Bimizrach, 2010

Just good enough to make you listen again. Just earworm-y enough to make you wish you skipped it. Grrr. Terrible.

TTT :: Daaga Minayin

"How", you ask, "can the best song ever composed and ever recorded and all that end up as a TTT?"

"For precisely that reason", I respond. "When such a song ends up like this, oy, TT!"

TTT :: Bracha ViHatzlacha • Oif Simchas

TTT :: Al Aileh • Amudei Shais

Great song, exceptional performance!

TTT :: Shehecheyonu • Amit Listvand

Now, we know about the dangers of blaming the victim. A delicate child cannot be expected to analyze, decide and act in the same way that a thoughtful adult can. Can young and vulnerable Amit be blamed for the hideous screeching he was forced to perform for his handlers? *shudder*

TTT :: Be a Mentch

Yerachmiel Begun 
and the miami boys choir

TTT :: Olam Haba? • Country Yossi

From his 2010 album "Ride Again"—20 years in the making—comes this piece of news:

You won't have a place in Olam Haba. They won't let you in.

TTT :: Ad Olam • Yeshiva Boys Choir

UPDATE!!! This just in from the homefront:

"I didn't set her up..."

TTT :: Mishefa • Solid Gold II

It is a challenge to select a TTT and stand by it. There are many songs that are okay and just not excellent; others are so off the beatin' path that it's unfair to bring them in just to beat them down. And sometimes you remember a song on a mainstream and otherwise successful musical experiment that sounds like this. And as you begin uploading, it plays. And as it plays you realize: Wow. This is actually terrible! Fantastic!

Avi Fishoff, the man behind the Solid Gold series

I think it is Gideon Levine and Yeedle singing.

TTT :: Mizmor Shir • Sheves Achim

This was tagged for TTT when I found it yesterday; now I am less terrified of it. I mean, besides the cartoon vibrato at 2:55. What say you?

TTT :: Thank You • Chai 5

It's Tuesday. Talk about this Tune.

TTT* :: Horeini • BT Rock (Reva L'Sheva)

I am prepared for the fallout of my TTTing someone's idol this morning. Track culled from BT Rock, a collection of "songs from the spiritual journey" by Sam Glaser.

*Now an acronym for Tunes we'll Talk about this Tuesday.

Yomam Valayla • Lipa

Speaking of elections...

A Tuesday Tune to Talk about. I'm mostly tickled by the "Haine-haine hach" at :40. Sounds like Hiney-ho. Teehee.

Eftach Pi Bishira • Yehuda!

Do you already know that I have a special place in my ears and heart for Yehuda? He was quite original before it was popular and was thus quite popular originally. And he composes and arranges and plays his own stuff, I think. But, ya know, there's also This Tuesday Tune to discuss.

For demonstration purposes only. Image may not reflect what Yehuda! currently looks like.
