[HANASHIR:16799] RE: Valentine's Day songs (I know...I know)

[Lisa Baydush <LisaB...>]

Rabbi Joe Black does a tongue-in-cheek one called "Valentine's Day is Not a
Jewish Holiday."  He sang it at Biennial.  It's on his newest cd.  Not
entirely appropriate for children, but thought it worth mentioning.

Subject: [HANASHIR:16770] Valentine's Day songs (I know...I know)

Hello!

First of all, I know that Valentine's Day is absolutely 100% not a Jewish 
holiday.  I know...I know.  However, I work for the JCC which "celebrates" 
Valentine's Day, all of the kids do as well, and...it's cute!  In other 
words: I am going to be singing Valentine's Day songs (if I can find any), 
and I don't need a barage of "you shouldn't be" comments.  I hope those of 
you who choose to do otherwise can at least respect my choice and recognize 
that it works for me and my community!

More importantly, obviously there aren't any Valentine's Day songs in Jewish

song books!  Wouldn't make a lot of sense.  However, I was hoping that maybe

others of you, like me, do this holiday with your kids anyway.  Does anyone 
know any great Valentine's Day songs?  Or, to keep it simple, songs about 
love or friendship?  Those could even be Jewish!

Thanks so much!  As always, you guys are a tremendous resource, and I 
appreciate all of your help!
