    What definition of “Jewish song” are we meant to be using?

    Avrohom and Yitzchak will be there to greet us, Yaakov and his sons standing by their side; Moshe Rabbeinu will lead us once again, In Yerushalyim B’EH.

    The phrase “I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired” is far

    older than that song, and that’s not quite the Metallica lyric.

    I think I hadn’t noticed your earlier post.

    “Ohhhhhhh, things change

    No use holding on because / Nothing stays the same”

    (That’s actually more than half the lyrics, not counting repetition.)

    #1213784

    “The thoughtless kindness of a coffee cup waiting by the door

    So much to say, I forget to start / There goes the day, fading as it passes”

    (The rest of the lyrics to this one aren’t as good in my opinion.)

    Randomex – what song is that? Why is there a coffee cup waiting by the door? And why is that thoughtless?

    Maybe a CR addict thinks he’s Eliyahu HaNavi?

    #1213787

    Jonathan Coulton’s “Glasses.”

    By “thoughtless kindness,” I think he meant that the person

    doesn’t think of themselves as having done the other person

    a favor – they naturally do this for their spouse.

    what? and why is it thoughtless?

    #1213789

    (To be precise, I think he meant “kindness done without thinking.”

    Had you seen my last post before now?)

    I want to know

    Why every song I have ever sat down to write

    Has started with the words “I want to know”

    (I don’t think the rest of the lyrics are as good. I won’t tell you the

    song this time, only that it’s by a little-known frum musician.)

    “Had you seen my last post before now?”

    no, sorry, I just saw it now. Probably wasn’t posted yet when I wrote my last post. I was responding to LB.

    okay, now I understand, thanks.

    I thought it meant that someone thought they were doing something kind but because they didn’t really put enough thought into it, it wasn’t really so kind.

    Like maybe leaving coffee outside the door instead of inviting the meshulach or worker or whoever it is into the house to eat like a mentch at the table. (although maybe they were concerned about a yichud or safety issue).

    Anyhow, now I understand, thank you.

    It’s hard to come up with lines for this thread when limiting myself to
    lines I like the actual words of (not those I really like the delivery of),
    from songs in which these are standout lines – I wouldn’t want to quote
    only one line of a song that’s well-written all the way through.
