Subject: Re: HOLOCAUST/SHOA: songs in memory
I am starting a list of the songs which could be used as memorial songs of those who perished and suffered in the holocaust; Here is my list so far: 1) Vu iz dus gesele, as sung by Jay and the Americans under the English title " Where is the Village?" Bilingual version sung by Howie Kane, in the LP TRY SOME OF THIS 2) El Diario de Ana Frank.- song in Spanish by italian singer Mino Reitano. Also sung in the original italian language version. 3) Es Brennt.- Holocaust song in which there are numerous versions. 4) Zog nit kein mol az du gest dem letsten weg.- Many versions of this song, but one of the more interesting one is by singer Paul Robeson ( live in Moscow) in the l950's.
