I am a Catholic that loves Jewish people and their faith, especially the Hasidics and Ultra Orthodox. I have celebrated with them in the homes for high holy days and weddings.
I remember seeing this for the first time and was so moved not only by the acting but the music that accompanied it as well. Several songs became huge hits... Never understood why the critics were so hard on this picture. It's a beautiful story about family... Can we at least agree that we need more movies like this in our lives right now...... Salute to you Mr.Dimond.
I'm not Jewish. But, this movie and this scene... powerful! Everybody's voice is so beautiful and then Neil Diamond walks in and carries it to a whole other level. This movie means a lot to me. It doesn't hurt that my father introduced it to me as a kid in the early 80s because of his love of Diamonds music.
I grow up with Neil Diamond and the Jazz Singer film. As my mother was a MASSIVE Neil Diamond fan. I have always thought this scene was extremely powerful. It is all about forgiveness and love. Yom Kipper is the day of forgiveness. We should learn to forgive more. Whatever your religion/faith.
Killer queen- I totally agree! I’m 54 and my parent’s grew up listening to Neil and I swear, I know every song by heart! My parent’s are dead now so when I listen to Neil, it’s very painful and very nostalgic. I can’t explain it! But now that I’m older and parents are gone, I’ve realized something. Man, it’s not about the nice car or the big diamond ring or the nice clothes. It’s about people. It’s about us and people loving each other and raising our kids in peace.
I've heard this many times in shul~but this is the most beautiful version in my book. I had to hear this yesterday,as it was Yom Kippur and it brought me back to the days when I hear my uncle David,then a Cantor,now a Rabbi sing it.
Once a Cantor, always a Cantor, a Rabbi is still a Cantor. Cantor just means singer, even in many other languages. Spanish, Cantar is to sing. Cantor, singer.
I forget how many times I’ve seen this film. My mum used to phone me and say “hello my friend “. If only I could to show her now my grandson. Her great grandson. But I’m sure he see him in heaven xx
I watched this movie over, and over, and over as a child...I called it "Song America!". I remember nothing of the movie but "America" but....watching this...it's made me realize that this scene formed the entirety of my musical preferences...I got a degree in music and still perform professionally because of these scene. The power of the music changed my life.
The best Kol Nidre movie The Jazz Singer with Neil Diamond.....I love the way he sings it see clip above... blessings Robert Be blessed by keeping 6:04 God's appointed holidays...
I'm am not jewish, but this scene and the way neil sings it is awesome. I have been in a Jewish church just once and I have to say that the higher ups really knew how to sing. I don't think our pastor at my church can carry a tune, but those I heard could really sing ....like really really good. A joke that i found funny is in highschool my girlfriend (Sarah) was jewish ( I would have married her, she is and always will be my first TRUE love. She past away when she was 25 due to blood clot) when ever one of her family asked if I was jewish I'd say ....well no ...but I did watch the jazz singer with Neil diamond. This made them smile or laugh. Sarahs grandmother said...such a nice boy,....to bad he is not jewish. Lol She did like me I was the only non jewish boy her grandma ever truly liked... cause grandma asked if we had a child would we raise it jewish or christian. I said BOTH. When he or she is 12 they can pick the one that they like.most and just go to one from that time on. but I would celebrate both Jewish and christian holidays equal. She liked that answer...
Well Jesus was Jewish, and under the New Covenant all being grafted in to the Abrahamic line, everyone is technically Jewish in any case, Welcome to the family. Essau voluntarily sold his birthright for a bowl of lentil 🍲 soup and this established a precedent that you can purchase the birthright through an act of loving kindness to others.
@@carminemurray6624The Christian's bibles are just very badly mistranslated and corrupted versions of the Torah/Tanach (The Real Word of G_d) with a lot changed including names, a whole lot added, and a whole lot taken out.

Was born 61 year in Florence from a 300 and more italian family but only at the age of 32 started to understand what means to be a Jew now im an ultra orthodox jew this movie i saw before i started my new way and it help me a lot
My all-time favorite movie ! Plus I love Neil Diamond...I went to see him in concert and I had soooo much fun...never did sit down ...just stood up and danced as most of the crowds did ! ! A great entertainer! ! ! Very humble person! !
Neil's voice can make anything sound good, i love this part of the movie. But that adreniline rush a person gets in the next scene seeing him perform for his father. Thats a priceless feeling. Thank you Neil
If you are married to a person not "of the faith" you are, you can completely understand the opening scene. May the Creator of All bless those in love who struggle with this issue.
Faith is not the property of one sect or Religion, as Data said, a leap of Faith to go and transcend way beyond what is visible and cross over into the Etheral and Spiritual.
I just looked at this for about a hundred times and it brought me to tears but Neil is a profound singer and I just love his singing he is great acting the part Tks for showing this.
To all those who miss their dad I know the feeling too May they be happy tears and good memories The reason it hurts is because you did love him Be glad you had him to love He knew you did love him All the best to you and yours in 2015 and beyond
As another Yom Kippur approaches, let us live in peace. I love Neil Diamond, but I am pleased I am a generation after him and can benefit from the enlightenment of him and others like him. I am pleased this is not my story, but history and that my little family lives its Jewish life the way it chooses. Not the way our ancestors dictate.
I have looked at this so many times and do enjoy it and every time I see it new emotions are felt it is a very heart wrenching and moving song and really makes u feel that all of us at some time makes mistakes but then we can be forgiven.a very true and beautiful moment for father and son.thank u Neil what ever yo do is meaning ful and yes does bring tears to new eyes,love u ur the best singer the world has ever known love u always
I love this movie n have it. I don't know anything about what they're doing there at that ceremony, but it's a beautiful piece of music. Well acted movie to boot.
I saw this scene of the original Jazz Singer and in the comments they were saying it was their favourite version. I was like what are they talking about? It seemed so comical and not powerful like this one. Plus Neil's voice! 😍
I'm not Jewish, and I don't pretend to know if this is in any way authentic. But this is beautiful. If you have parents and choose a different path.. This seems to hit home.
Tuesday, 12 September 2017: Ani ohev Israel ba ha lev sheli ve gam Ani ohev Ivrit. Elohim Yeverech Israel. I am African American man. I was Not born Jewish, but I love Israel and the Hebrew language.
in preparing for Kol Nidre tonight, I wanted to rehear the music, I didn't realize that I would get this beautiful dialogue too, it's a heartbreaker tho, I am thankful that I was not in the father's position, I have strong values on intermarriage, luckily I never gave birth! LE Cohen
screw the haters. I myself am not jewish,but i was raised to respect people and their religious beliefs My closest friend was jewish, she died last year from cancer. My sponsor in my 12 step program is jewish. i don't care what religion someone is, they have the right to choice, and the right not to be judged for their beliefs. shalom
I have to always play this on Yom Kippur. I’m a Christian but love Israel and the Jewish people….
I think that this is what Christianity was supposed to be like.
I am a Catholic that loves Jewish people and their faith, especially the Hasidics and Ultra Orthodox. I have celebrated with them in the homes for high holy days and weddings.

My love for my son is forever 💖 I've raised my son on my own since he was five.🥺
Once I watched The Jazz Singer, I was hooked, a lifelong Neil Diamond fan
No matter your faith we can all appreciate what it means to forgive each other. Even after nearly 30 years this scene still brings tears to my eyes.
Amen my friend. Let us rejoice in our common humanity as children of God
It makes me sob like a little girl after getting her favorite doll chewed up by the family dog.
Repent then forgive
The day of attonement, you do Shuva and you sing Kole Nidre.
Enter the Baal Shuva.
The best song on a fabulous soundtrack! When Neil begin singing, I am moved to tears.
feel the same this movie had such an impact on me
It's a cry in the voice .... he understands the genius of how it works 😊
I'm not Jewish (nor was Sir Laurence) but this scene still makes me cry like a baby...A father's love/acceptance is universal.
as is the absence of the father's love
Happy Yom Kippur to Niel Diamond and all the Jewish people, the first to hear the Word of God.
I'm not Jewish. But, this movie and this scene... powerful! Everybody's voice is so beautiful and then Neil Diamond walks in and carries it to a whole other level. This movie means a lot to me. It doesn't hurt that my father introduced it to me as a kid in the early 80s because of his love of Diamonds music.
I love this but also check out Kol Nidre by Cantor Dan Mutlu.
Are you not Youice?
One of my favourite films love Neil diamond
I have seen the movie at least 30 times, and this scene still brings tears to my eyes. I'd give anything to hear Neil do Kol Nidre in person.

Neil Diamond..the man who broke the bounderies..and embodied..jazz..rock...and ....roll....classical...religion and beyond..and came out ALIVE...
I forget how many times I’ve seen this film. My mum used to phone me and say “hello my friend “. If only I could to show her now my grandson. Her great grandson. But I’m sure he see him in heaven xx
That mix of Neil's singing and Sir Laurence Olivier's acting is such a special moment in this movie.
I saw this movie as a kid and never forgot this amazing scene... cool that we can find it again on RUclips.
I watched this movie over, and over, and over as a child...I called it "Song America!". I remember nothing of the movie but "America" but....watching this...it's made me realize that this scene formed the entirety of my musical preferences...I got a degree in music and still perform professionally because of these scene. The power of the music changed my life.
The look on the father's face is priceless when he realize his son is singing Kol Nidre.
Although I have always loved the entire soundtrack, this is my favorite song. Neil did such a beautiful rendition of one of the most moving prayers.
5:09 - seeing Jess' dad break down when seeing his grandson's picture - makes me tear up every time - priceless!
makes this old man soften his heart and brings him to tears every time
The best Kol Nidre movie The Jazz Singer with Neil Diamond.....I love the way he sings it see clip above...
blessings
Robert
Be blessed by keeping 6:04 God's appointed holidays...
I cried with my grandfather during this scene 38 years ago.. I miss him
Such a beautiful testament, I bet your grandfather was wonderful.

Love hearing Neil sing in Hebrew
Hello my dear, how are you doing?
I miss my parents
I'm 60 years old now
I am an Italian Jewish lady
Me too just pray!
This is one of my favorite movies, and I love hearing Neil sing Kol Nidrei.
Me too !,,
He would certainly know it well, as he IS Jewish. He does it so beautifully. I am not Jewish either, and I love hearing him sing this.
Neil Diamond 💎. 💖
This song brings tears to my eyes Everytime I hear it. It is on my play list. No greater love than grandchild and God bring them together
My father married outside of the faith but ALL his family loved her like their own ....... as it should be.
Was born 61 year in Florence from a 300 and more italian family but only at the age of 32 started to understand what means to be a Jew now im an ultra orthodox jew this movie i saw before i started my new way and it help me a lot
Dis is da youice heritidge
My all-time favorite movie ! Plus I love Neil Diamond...I went to see him in concert and I had soooo much fun...never did sit down ...just stood up and danced as most of the crowds did ! ! A great entertainer! ! ! Very humble person! !
I saw him in the Toledo Sports Arena back in the early 70s. He was just starting out then, but he was fantastic!
Neil's voice can make anything sound good, i love this part of the movie. But that adreniline rush a person gets in the next scene seeing him perform for his father. Thats a priceless feeling. Thank you Neil
The Waiting is the hardest part, funny name to choose, I liked the way he had his eyes on his father the whole time when he was singing it
It’s that time of year again. Yom Kippur is in a few days. I’ll be watching this tomorrow night. It’s my Days of Awe tradition
G’mar Chasima Tova!
Beautiful scene. Terrific, underestimated, movie.
If you are married to a person not "of the faith" you are, you can completely understand the opening scene. May the Creator of All bless those in love who struggle with this issue.

To all those who miss their dad
I know the feeling too
May they be happy tears and good memories
The reason it hurts is because you did love him
Be glad you had him to love
He knew you did love him
All the best to you and yours in 2015 and beyond
Bless you dear one❤ Yes I miss my earthly papa😘 But I so look forward to seeing my great Father in heaven😘
Thank you
G.D BLESS YOU
I miss my parents. I am 86 now
La Shona Tova
That movie reminded us humans to love heaven's parents forevermore and forever ❤ 💖. Dont forget our dear parents, brothers and sisters😊❤❤❤
a beautiful Kol Nidrei - Neil Diamond's voice just blends it into me. . .
Sir lawrence was spectacular in this movie. Great acting all around.
Back for another Kol Nidrei. Peace and love to the world. Leave each other alone!!!
They say a Baby can melt the hardest of hearts.
This scene, and this singing is the soul behind all of Neil Diamonds songs, and it is magical
One of the most wonderful soundtracks from any movie.
A song that pulls at the strings of my heart that are already highly strung. Bless such beautiful sentiment.
As another Yom Kippur approaches, let us live in peace. I love Neil Diamond, but I am pleased I am a generation after him and can benefit from the enlightenment of him and others like him. I am pleased this is not my story, but history and that my little family lives its Jewish life the way it chooses. Not the way our ancestors dictate.

this was me and my spouse 41 yrs ago cept my dad was not a rabbi, but this still makes me teary
La mejor escena. Un Kol Nidrei que llega al corazón. 🙌❤️🙏
I love this movie n have it. I don't know anything about what they're doing there at that ceremony, but it's a beautiful piece of music. Well acted movie to boot.
If Kol Nidre was sung like that at my shul, I'd probably be happier about being there each year. Sadly, this is not the case. Not even close.
😘😘😘 I love the sweet Nation of Israel for bringing the word of God to we gentiles❤ Israel who taught the Gentiles of our sweet Holy God❤💐
I saw this scene of the original Jazz Singer and in the comments they were saying it was their favourite version. I was like what are they talking about? It seemed so comical and not powerful like this one. Plus Neil's voice! 😍
Thank you for posting this

Kol Nidrei "all vows" on of the most moving and deeply felt parts of the Yom Kippur service.
Best Singer Ever.
Muy buen elenco de la película, todos actores muy buenos ,gracias a todos por vuestra buena labor, y por subir el bonito vídeo muchas gracias por todo
Kol Nidre done by Johnny Mathis is totally amazing !
Kol Nidre is the first song i remembred from childhood.My soul is from that place
Großartig... schön- einfach nur schön und ergreifend..
So powerful. So moving.
This brought tears to my eyes.
I love it when he sings this so beautiful, his voice shines
He really did an excellent job in this scene.
Bravo Laurence Olivier !
I love prayers in all languages they sound so beautiful!!
Neil Diamond 💎.
Sir Lawrence Olivier🌷.

Muy bonita película ,la he visto más de 18 veces y siempre descubro cosas nuevas, nunca me canso de verla muy bien
One of my favourite movies of all time
One of my favourite singers I have seen in concert I few times .a great film .
such an emotional scene
Father’s and Son’s it’s a Tough relationship, both proud of stubborn neither wanting to Ben to each other
Listen, it is so very beautiful. No matter who you are. What your tradition is. These are truly human beings expressing grief, sadness, loss -- hope.
Beautiful song.
Beautifully sung.
Beautiful!
On a day like today things like this make me miss my Daddy more!
Thank you..Neil diamond
Omg this movie is so emotional 😢😭
Happy Rose Hashanah,2018. Peace and love.

Lawrence Oliver played his farther he acted in 56 films .he was very famous an English Astor .he died 7 years after this film .
all i have to say is Amen!!!! May we all be forgiving of others as God forgives us
Laurence Olivier is at his best in this movie
Neil did a beaitiful job. Its hard to sing this song. You need it from the heart. Everytime i here it i cry.
