With A Scent of Yesteryear, From The Upcoming Album: Simche Friedman In A Sweet & Joyful Chasidic Song – “Oineg Shabbos”

After a series of singles in a variety of styles, Chasidic singer Simche Friedman presents the first song from his second album (to be released soon) – “Oineg Shabbos” – a gentle and joyful waltz, with a Jewish scent of yesteryear.

The song was composed by Chaim Altman. The arrangement and musical production were handled by David Taub.

A new music video, filmed in Jerusalem, accompanies the song. It follows the preparations for Shabbos: the bustling Shuk, the routine of weekday work, preparing the house for Shabbos – until things calm down and everyone gathers around the table to celebrate Shabbos with song and joy. 

The video, which was filmed and edited by Hershy Segal, gives viewers the special feeling we all know: “Here comes Shabbos”!

“I just love this song,” says Simche, “Because I really love Shabbos, the day the outside world stops and you can learn, sing, talk (face to face!) to your family – without noise, phones, and distractions. What a gift! Aaahhh, Oineg Shabbos!”
