Aliyah--Hollywood Style!

I made a stupid little film so that others may experience the joy that is Misrad Hapnim. Please excuse the VERY poor sound quality and the tiny print for some of the captions. You'll have to turn your speakers WAY up, and if full-screen is an option, I suggest using it.



I would have put it on You Tube, but one of my previous You Tube escapades ended up being a bit ridiculous. Well, the film was ridiculous to start, but one of the comments I received on Youtube (okay, okay, the ONLY comment I received) was annoying because it missed the point. Shall I explain?

Here's the original music video:



Now here is MY version:



And one of the comments is: "why did u removed the audio its sounds bad ..."

Um, yes, genius. What keen observation skills you have. I did INDEED remove the sound and chop up the video--hence the title "Gad Elbaz Recut." I thought it would be funny to have an orthodox Jew dancing to ABBA, but apparently the world does not agree....

Henyways, that's my beef with You Tube. Coming Soon: My beef with the little old ladies at my grandparents' nursing home!

You indeed heard "sherutim." It just means services, though...

I still find that so obnoxious.
