no joke i love this song because it's so hilarious and so is the performance
I remember this song from my youth and i have always loved it😊⚘🍃
Me too. Happy times 1993
me too
There seems to be a silent catfight going on between all those people on stage ...
Btw, this started into a complicated affair. The lead singer, Sarah'le Sharon, went to Shaike Paikov, the composer of this song, went to him to compose a song for the preselection. Paikov hesitated because her vocal skills is not enough and once they both agreed to compose one, Paikov told her not to sing because she would kill the song. In the preselection, they won and went to Ireland
Now, here starts the affair. The lead singer, wanted all the camera focused on her. Paikov, who noticed the commotion, went to the TV director and that TV director told Paikov that the singer wants all of the cameras focused on her because she is the lead singer. Tho, I have to agree that the background singers were good than her. Tho, at that first rehearsal, it was now fixed, focusing both the lead singer and the background singers.
However, in the 2nd rehearsal, Paikov notices that all the cameras once focused again on her. Now, the fight has become more larger. And the singer demanded that the camera will focus on her. If they didnt do it, she will leave the group. So they have no choice but to do it.
In the final, Paikov was worried about her singing. And yes, Paikov confirmed his doom, she sang way too loud and out of tune. Paikov wanted to get out of Ireland ASAP because he couldnt handle it. Tho, the Head of Delegation told him not to because it would be an issue in Israel
The first song to perform from the 24th position.
…and the first song to receive 24th place once all the scores were added to the scoreboard!
Rest in peace Rachely Chaim 😢
Who is Rachely please ?
0:39: the singer from the right.died from Alzheimer’s disease. Rip
The song is very good, the vocals, the subtleties and tender moments, along with a very well-rehearsed performance. Typical yet powerful symbol of unity - the performers always come together at the end. Israel always bring well-considered, polished, quality entries.
Greetings from Greece....this song's amazing!!!! I remember, I have memories...
I always felt sorry for that background singer who was isolated till the last moment. That really made no sense...
they did the same thing with the girl on the back in 1998's "Diva". I don't know maybe because she was fat..?
The background singer and the woman on piano weren't planned to be with those quartet. It was Sara's (the woman on piano) idea to join the backing woman and herself with the quartet
The womanat the piano is the real star, that is why they were selected, she is an Israeli icon. Saraleh Sharon.
Lovely song
Love this one:)
I always feel for the poor girl standing alone in this song, and I guess Botox was invented in 1993 what was the Mother on ?
One of the best Israeli entries for me! It should have ended up in top 10!!
this song was mutch better then Ireland . Nice song from Israel . i'm from Norway
Eurovision is a lot about politics,lots of 'neighborly gestures'(Greece/cyprus;France/Luxemburg etc').Unfortunately,Israel stands alone(with head up high)
@@noamzacks3315 It had standard votes from France and Switzerland.
IMO in TOP 3!
@@noamzacks3315 They have Ukraine to give them points now.....
The funniest thing is the worst singer of the group is the leader (the one on the piano.)
What a great performance
1:53 Cameraman, you had ONE job!
1:35 R.I.P Racheli Haim ❤😢
RIP Racheli Haim
This is the first Israeli Eurovision performance to include lyrics in English (2:08)
@EZ
גם ב"דרך המלך" גילי נתנאל שר ברי"ש גרונית :)
@@ArielO6 what does brish garonit mean? :)
It is so horrendous that it actually becomes good. lol
R.I.P Rachel Haim.
Which 1 is she ? 😢
Ye which one is she 😢😢
Excellent
VIVE ISRAIL
How did Israel and Croatia get away with so many English lyrics? As for this performance, it was... well... iconic in its own ways.
Israel leaped forward in the early 90s economically. This song and singer (who's an ancient relic of folk singing, popular until mid 80s) is a part of what the outdated Israeli broadcast authority thought would be the perfect 70s song. This also started a very confused 2 decades of Israel trying to figure out what song to send to the contest, when the ratings declined rabidly before they picked up again mid 2010s.
A horrible song and performance.
A percentage of the song could be in another language. Check Netherlands 1983. Title Sing me a song. Dutch English and French words.
@@ponyclub3198 I agree with you here, Israel were an absolute Eurovision powerhouse in the 70's and 80's, then severely ran out of steam in the 90's until they came up with Diva (which I don't actually like, Dana is a weak singer and the song doesn't come anywhere near their early classics)
The old lady is the boss here you can see it 😂
Whenever I need a good laugh, I remember the quote from Shaike Paikov on your website that he was sure this would win :-D
I think what he meant was "Derech Hamelech"
Edit: I just realized from ur comment that he was a competitor that wants to win at every competition he joins, as a songwriter/composer
He was sure this would win before the woman on Piano took over everything he and his team had planned before
@@DF-jz6ri That would have been pretty optimistic anyway, there's several much stronger songs than this in 1993 and while I know the choreo is Israel's way of doing things, it comes across a bit fey.
As an Israeli kid I was certain we were about to win!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nice but underrated song.
Canción buenísima pero no sé si la transmisión fue mala o la distribución en plató fue deficiente que había pasajes dónde se me perdía el grupo y enfocaban solamente a la pianista. Además como se les ocurre pasar una cámara en plena grabación. Será porque Irlanda era novata en este tipo de realizaciones? La verdad que no creo, me sorprende mucho. Lo otro, si quieres presentar un grupo musical que cantan a sexteto, o ecualizas bien el micrófono o te buscas un grupo que sea capaz de empastar bien, porque en caso contrario suena a una manada de monos locos 😂.
Al parecer, segun he leido la abuela shiru iba de muy diva y exigió que la actuación se centrase en ella como cantante y no en el grupo, estando a punto incluso de retirarse
@@Sorcereresc Vaya, creída la señora
Linet should’ve represent that year😢
I agree!
the old lady on the piano reminds me of Chucky 😁
Hello everybody:
I would like to know the meaning of the sentence "אל תשאירו כוח למחר
", since "leave no strength for tomorrow" sounds a little bit odd and too literal.
Context:
שירו, שירו בגרון ניחר
אל תשאירו כוח למחר
שירו, שירו והדליקו אש
כי השיר הוא כל מה שיש
Greetings
Carlos M.S.
PS: This song is an Ashkenazi-type or Ashkenazi-styled song, isn't it?
It sort of means -use all your voice(even if it becomes sore)now,don't leave some for tommorow
Hi,
Your translation is indeed the literal meaning of the phrase.
The meaning however is to use all your power TODAY and save nothing for TOMORROW.
Imagine that you are going to a shopping spree for instance, which suppose to last two days.
If we would reflect this line on the way you should do the shopping spree, the advice given in the line you had mentioned is to spend the entire budget, to the last cent, on the FIRST day, making the shopping spree last a SINGLE day only.
As to your second question: As an Israeli, I am not familiar with Ashkenazi-styled songs. But I assume (And only assume) that Ashkenazi-Styled songs typically have Yidish Lyrics. This Song definitely doesn't has Yidish lyrics, in any case, that's not the type of songs you'd typically hear in Israel these days :-)
Hope that helps!
P.S, I assume you have a degree in a Science related topic. I study Computer Science and I feature in my channel topics related to my studies, so it might interests you.
@@OrSNCucumber כוח could be translated as "force/power/strength/energy"?
@@herrprofessor I'd say that the best translation to the word "כוח" in the given context, is "energy". Deplete all of your energy on singing today, leave no energy to sing tomorrow. But generally speaking the word "כוח", can translates to any of the words you had mentioned.
הכוונה תשקיעו עכשיו אץ כל הכח שלכם ולא להשאיר כח למחר
Empalagoso como todos los himnos israelíes...pero la esencia de grupo y coordinación de voces no está mal del todo.
Un poco sí, un himno de tipo muy tradicional, pero está muy bien; me gusta. Su estribillo es de lo más pegadizo. Caracteriza a Israel este tipo de canciones en grupos-coros. Y normalmente les ha dado muy buenos resultados; aquel año fue la excepción.
Terry Wogan said it reminds him of the daleks...last minute !
He also said something about refugees from a Christmas tree?
This song sounds like if you averaged out every other Israeli Eurovision song
Charity Shop Sue?
Un poco caótica pero tampoco era para quedar así de mal. Me suena a una canción de musical. Calificación: 7,50/10
Agree with a previous comment, that poor wee girl on the side of the stage gets no look in at all
One of the guys could join Il Volo.
Can we get the lyrics?
oa mejor de aquel año
RIP Racheli Chaim
Is it true that the composer Shaike Paikov was also the composer of the wonderful Israel entry from 1989 ?? Points for Israel at the Eurovision song contest always seem somehow political If a left government is in power in Israel they get many points if otherwise ....
WHY WASNT ISRAEL IN THE FINAL BETWEEN 2011-2013 ? Thank you Netanyahu !!
Yes, it's true, Shaike Paikov composed Derekh Hamelekh, Israeli entry for 1989. A nice song too.
...buuuuttt Israel's made the final for the last 3 years (and I wouldn't put it past them to do so in 2018) and last I checked that idiot Bibi is still there.
Shaike Paikov was upset of this performance
They sorta look like a cult, don't they?
Especially the piano woman, she gives me the creeps for some reason
The pianist lady,Sarah Sharon,is the 'queen' of "singing together"(groups coming together to sing Israeli folk songs,all over Israel)
@@user-ti2xu3wp5l actually,you could not be more rong.She's a very nice,open..inspite being a star here in Israel.going to eurovision was a kind of surprise to us cause till then the musik she was involved in,was mostly Israeli folk songs
מי הזמרות והזמרים ששרים
שרהלה שרון ולהקת שירו

El de lentes es igual a Alex Ubago
A mí me recuerda más a Mikel Herzog, no sé por qué.
A dated song, an outdated concept of singers and a terrible lead singer, and...why the white dress singer didn't appear to the cameras??
באמת?
Solo singers choir lol
Ça chante Super Faux en Hébreux comme en Anglais.Dommage...
Oy vey 😬
Nobody is able to speak the "reysh" correctly.
What a dreadful performance.
שיר גרוע כי גרוע
Katstrofa sing
שיר גרוע מאוד.לפני אחרון זכור לי
מבחינת סדר השירים היה 24, הגיע למקום 24, והיה השיר הראשון באירוויזיון שהגיע למקום 24
Well...it is a dull song, but here the typical israelian group "choreography" gets on my nerves, as does the song the further we go. Maybe one of Israel´s worst entries ever.
It is quite bad but not as bad as Sameach or Push the Button
facepalm
Awful - should have got null points
Bad song
