A new subject (finally)



In the spirit of it being close to summer (though you wouldn't know it in
Seattle) and songleaders preparing materials, I would like to pose the
following:

If you could include one (and only one) song in a Jewish songbook for camp
what would it be and why (my own little version of Desert Island Judaism).

I suppose it would look bad if I did not go first.  I would include Klepper's
Shalom Rav.  The song, for me, means summer, camp, Israel, youth, and
innocence all wrapped into one, but not necessarily in that order.  Though I
sing the song nearly every week on Friday nights, it holds a different aspect
for me in the woods.  I guess it's just one of those intangibles--now I look
bad for asking people to explain--hope you all have better luck.

I look forward to your reponses.

Shavua Tov!
Neil
