This time, the album is all-English. After the success of <strong>Am Echad<\/strong> and <strong>Yesh Tikvah<\/strong> (which Goldwag composed for Benny Friedman), it only made sense to continue to give people a message of hope and strength in their native tongue. &#8220;I&#8217;ve wanted to do an album like this for years,&#8221; says Goldwag. &#8220;From the success and interest that I&#8217;ve seen from the different English songs that I&#8217;ve released on recent albums, I felt the time was right.&#8221; Ari is known for his songs that pack both a message and a great melody. From &#8220;<strong>Hashem Loves You<\/strong>&#8221; on the album Sheves Chaverim, to &#8220;<strong>Hashem is always there<\/strong>&#8221; on the album Am Echad, the songs that speak to us most are often the songs that speak our language.<\/p>\n<p>The album features ten songs, composed by Goldwag himself, <strong>Dror Kivodi<\/strong>, a long time collaborator with Goldwag, Miriam Israeli (who wrote the Hebrew lyrics of Yesh Tikvah and Am Echad), as well as the talented writer and lyricist Leah Rubabshi.<\/p>\n<p>The outstanding hit of the album is the song &#8220;<strong>Chanukah Light<\/strong>,&#8221; which will soon be released as a music video with an unusual twist. The themes range from facing our challenges (&#8220;Something Different,&#8221; &#8220;Choices&#8221;) to the special smile of a child (&#8220;Your Smile&#8221;) among others. There are songs that subtly remind us of our love for Shabbos (&#8220;Angels Out&#8221;) and Eretz Yisroel (&#8220;Take Me Home&#8221;). This is an album you will not want to miss!<\/p>\n<p>The album is being distributed by Aderet music in the US and available now for pre-order on <a onclick=\"javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('\/outgoing\/mostlymusic.com\/products\/ari-goldwag-english-album\/#_a_insights');\"  href=\"http:\/\/mostlymusic.com\/products\/ari-goldwag-english-album\/#_a_insights\">MostlyMusic.com<\/a>. <strong>Ari Goldwag: The English Album<\/strong> should be in stores over the weekend. <\/p>\n<p>Click <strong>PLAY<\/strong> below to hear the sampler<\/p>\n<p class=\"audioplayer_container\"><span style=\"display:block;padding:5px;border:1px solid #dddddd;background:#f8f8f8\" id=\"audioplayer_1\">Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip.
