Couldn’t agree more! Hummus song was great, the guy who came up with it is pure genius. Heard it many times in the past, and knew this was going to be a hit. However, there were SO many others I heard who just compose their own songs who did not have a good voice. When it comes to singing someone elses songs they will do really bad. A true artist is one that has stage presence, can connect to the audience, a great voice, and someone who IS ON PITCH. Some of these guys they let in are as pitchy… Read more »

Where's the Love
March 23, 2013 8:40 pm

Mendy who sang an original composition was amazing , he’s really got a good country thing going on , a little shaky at the beggining but he really came into his own, I hope he goes all the way!

Yes maybe the.instrument thing.isnt really.fair.but yes the act to is important after all youre talking.about.the next.jewish star he has to have the spirit.for.it

Where can we get a copy of the chummos song?
March 23, 2013 8:14 am
Judges????
March 22, 2013 5:43 pm

It’s amazing how If u have a guitar or play the keyboard even if u can’t sing its like an automatic yes?!?? I thought its a singing competition….for example Yanky Samet sounded nice and sweet and had a good stage presence while u have someone playing keyboard or guitar who sounds like a cat getting strangled in an alley, and they love it and want to hear more……judge the voice not the act!

who is yossi stern married to?
March 22, 2013 5:00 pm

March 22, 2013 7:53 am

yossi stern is the BEST

to number forty
March 22, 2013 4:06 am

its just that yeedle still has a touch of yiddishe eidelkeit left to him and is not an immature person looking for a good time

Much better!
March 22, 2013 3:30 am

This episode is a great improvement probably because there were a few that can actually sing. But the judges need to be more professional.

Go Michal!!!
March 22, 2013 2:40 am

ANYWAYS
March 22, 2013 2:05 am

takes the mike for a ride!

:-)
March 22, 2013 12:12 am

Yehuda is doing really well. Lipa is good, but he could be more insightful.

And Yeddle needs to speak up. He’s on the panel because he’s capable. He’s done well in the biz over the last decade (not necessarily as a performer). He knows a lot more than his giving. Yeedle, get over the stage fright – it could be Lipa is throwing you off….I don’t know…maybe the show needs a “performance psychologist” to balance out the talent.

Those are my thoughts

its getting a bit better!
March 22, 2013 12:10 am

bit better than episode 1 but the judges gotta go….
arent they suppose to each have their own opinion why do they look at the next one to see what he thinks?

We Love You Yossi Stern
March 22, 2013 12:07 am

Ive seen Yossi preform the chumus song everywhere from a roof top in the rain, to on stage. its amazing how Yossi’s music brings so many people from different walks of life to gather together. One visiting day Yossi was asked to play the chumus song for a campers parents. withen a few min there were campers, parents and staff gathered around for the next half hour singing and clapping along to his music. it was one of my most memorable moments of the summer. Every time i hear you play it brings so many fond memories. Kol Hakavod Yossi!!

YOSSI STERN U ROCK
March 21, 2013 11:49 pm

BEST SONG EVVVVERRRR

Amazing
March 21, 2013 11:48 pm

Michel Klein is amazing

describe
March 21, 2013 11:43 pm

wowowowowowowo
that song is unreal
whats the name of that song anyone??
i believe that a jewish star is saving jewish children and giving them a place of expression within our religion….
to expect everyone to be in a box is not natural….we need to have room to let people breath and feel themselves in their religion..thank you col

I loive Lipa, he’s really entertaining and all, but he turned this show into being all about himself. He should behave and not take the spotlight away from those contending to get a lucky break into his business.

nice voice
March 21, 2013 11:10 pm

yishay is good and a good dancer to bad he didn’t make it

where is part 3?

It’s Describe. Who happens to b a Lubavitcher living in CH
And the fact that he sounds mainstream (“goyish”) only proves how good he is

Jewish Star! Great video, good work everyone involved, I just have one teensy tiny complaint. Why is there mamash goyish music at the end credits. There are 1000’s of songs to choose from Jewish music, come on. (i shazzamed it ..)
