BSD Thanks. A short visit but also note – Maoz Tsur (the traditional tune) is a church tune from what I understand but it is not clear whether it was just a secular tune used for both or what the situation really was.

Oh and I forgot:

Afili Agida zois kefira

Veketz lakol koifrim

Kedishe zu rak Netirye Karta

Vekama Sotmorim

Yerushalayim Shel HaTachat

Velo yhyeh la shum nachat

Ad shekol rechovayich

Yihyu leMea Sheorim

Beyom hahu sorfim hadegel

Vepachei zevel gam

Im ata lo soref itanu

Ata lo ben adam

The above is a Creedmoorer nigun, composed by Reb Dovid’l Creedmoorer (Schmoigerman) himself to the tzionish Yerushalayim shel Zahav which its author Naomi Shemer confessed to having lifted in part from a Basque song. Since the Basques, like Dovid’l’s Hamas buddies, like to blow things up, he used this tune for his composition despite its tzionish origins.
