Never mind that this looks like the same link as the one right above it. Go by the song title. This one is "I love you too much." German "zuviel" is "Zifeel" in Yiddish....

And so I sent a link to the Barry Sister to this young friend born and raised in Israel. Granted, she is young enough to be my daughter. No shock that she would not like these singers. But she said their

LOL - Get plastered! Quicker, in' it? Empty this mind. YES. Yes. Yes. Meditation - Clear the Head - Yes.

Brilliant, as always! It may take you several days to labor and give birth to these creations, but look at the result! Gestation and delivery of a much-needed message. Sorry it's taken me four days to
