About a year ago R’ Yechiel Kleinman, father of singer Eitan Kleiman, was niftar. In the year that followed, he connected to the words of the Kaddish Yasom that he has recited hundreds of times now, and is sharing that feeling in a new single that expresses what it is like to say Kaddish for one’s father Lo Aleinu.

Kleinman still can’t believe how many times he has said these words as a Yasom before the Amud, and never imagined himself composing these sad words into a song. Kleinman begs that we utilize every day to the fullest with those that are important to us. We should say good and warm words, and not be afraid to love them and hug them constantly in order to make the most of our time with them.
