    If non Jews listen to Jewish music, they’ll like it and adopt it as their own. Meanwhile, Jews are busy adopting non Jewish music as their own, so the result would be that people will think that non Jewish music is really Jewish music.

    There used to be a guy who would drive around my neighborhood on Shabbos with Jewish music playing in his car. Dunno if he was a goy.

    apushatayid, you mean like Perry Como or Johnny Mathis singing Kol Nidre?

    Things that are part of reality can’t be Jewish?

    ZD, I think you’ve gone off topic.

    #1121482

    DaasYochid:

    (Burn! )

    Only using the popular definition of “Jewish music” –

    namely, “music created by and for Orthodox Jews.”

    Even using that definition, did he not intend his music for a wider audience?

    On topic, we once had a non Jewish worker in the house who liked Regesh, and even went to a Judaics store to buy a CD.

    #1121484

    Weren’t you saying ZD was off-topic,

    implying that Matisyahu wasn’t Jewish music?

    Yes.

    #1121486

    Does that not fit only with that definition?

    when the song “Ban mir bist du sheyn” came out:

    1) It was sung by a non- jewish group (Andrew Sisters)

    2) Every Italian brick layer in NYC could be heard singing it as he worked

    The Jewish themes in Matisyahu’s music makes it too Jewish for people who are careful not to listen to Jewish music.
