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 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 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.
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
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.
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'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'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. Everything that G_d said not to do, Christianity did! Christianity lies! NO Hebrew/Jew was ever named Jesus, nor John, nor especially James. There is no letter J in the Hebrew alephbet nor does any of the Hebrew letters even make a J sound. Try actually reading the scriptures where G_d gave the Torah and the Commandments to Mosche and the Children/Nation of Israel on Mt. Sinai. G_d specifically told them in no uncertain terms that neither they nor any of their descendents all through time are to Never veer to the right nor left of the Torah/Tanach! Never!!! G_d also told them in no uncertain terms that neither they nor any of their descendents all through time are to Never accept anybody else's religion! Never!!! The One True Creator G_d also warned not to add to, nor subtract from the Torah/Tanach, but Christianity did it anyway. Christianity adopted way too many idolatrous and pagan beliefs contrary to what The One True Creator G_d actually said.
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.
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! !
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
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.
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 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.
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.
Love Neil, and it hurts to watch him battle Parkinson's. As he enters his final life battle, I so wish he would realize Jesus IS the Messiah his Jewish ancestors longed to see. There's still time Neil. Prayers to you..... hoping to hear you singing in Jehovah's choir on the other side!!
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.
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
This scene demonstrates the heart wrenching consequences and events of Jewish assimilation. Please, If you are Jewish and find this music moving, go to a Jewish Orthodox synagogue this Yom kippur.
We live in a world and a country where assimilation is the norm. The truth is assimilation has been going on for centuries for Jews. For example- if you go by the biblical standards- religion is passed on the fathers side. Because of the horrors of what happened in Eastern Europe a few centuries ago- it switched to the mother's side. See Jews with blue eyes? If Jews are Semites, how is that possible since blue eyes are recessive and brown eyes are dominant genetically. The parents can guilt the crap out of their child- but the fact is the child is the one with the trump card- grandchildren- they cannot pass on THEIR grandchildren.
+Ian Levy there's nothing wrong with Assimilation. You can have that, and keep your own family traditions as well. Many diverse cultures have come together in the melting pot we call the United States, and many of us have managed to keep many of our old world traditions within the culture of America. What American isn't IRISH on St. Patty's day? But then we have our own holidays. Whether it's Yom Kippur, or Ramadan or Christmas or Kwanzaa. It's all a part of who and what we are.
Ephraim Lehrer Sorry dude- you are wrong. Judiasm switched to the mothers side after the horrors in Russia and eastern Europe. The fact is biblical Judiasm went thru the fathers side. As for Religion and or race- for Jews it is both and the same.
@@iandlevy Your argument is valid, but your historical reasoning lacking. Firstly, matrilineality is the norm among all (non Karaite) Jews, not only Ashkenazim who suffered under the Russian Empire. You are correct that patrilineality was the norm and was changed due to outside influences, but it was much earlier, under the Romans. As for blue/light eyes, they are not an exclusively European trait (in fact, they didn't even mutate/form first in Europe). They existed among ancient Levantines and exist among modern Levantines today. They do however exist in higher rates among Ashkenazim and Sephardim than among other Levantines.
What is it that they sing before Kol Nidre? The chorus is really impressive. When the Tanakh talks about Solomon acquiring male singers, that's what it meant.
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
Wish Neil had an entire Jewish album. And especially the entire Kol Nidre for our families into the future
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
The best Kol Nidre movie The Jazz Singer with Neil Diamond.....I love the way he sings it see clip above...

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
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 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.
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!
My father married outside of the faith but ALL his family loved her like their own ....... as it should be.
It's a cry in the voice .... he understands the genius of how it works 😊
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.
That mix of Neil's singing and Sir Laurence Olivier's acting is such a special moment in this movie.
The look on the father's face is priceless when he realize his son is singing Kol Nidre.
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

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'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.

My love for my son is forever 💖 I've raised my son on my own since he was five.🥺
Neil Diamond..the man who broke the bounderies..and embodied..jazz..rock...and ....roll....classical...religion and beyond..and came out ALIVE...
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
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.
I cried with my grandfather during this scene 38 years ago.. I miss him
Such a beautiful testament, I bet your grandfather was wonderful.

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!
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.
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 💎. 💖
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

this was me and my spouse 41 yrs ago cept my dad was not a rabbi, but this still makes me teary
A song that pulls at the strings of my heart that are already highly strung. Bless such beautiful sentiment.
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! 😍
Kol Nidrei "all vows" on of the most moving and deeply felt parts of the Yom Kippur service.
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

Wow!! I feel the goosebumps up and down my spine!!
Neil diamond..awesome. Im so glad he didnt put on blackface.
actually early in the movie the black band he writes for begs him to do it he does and chasos insues
This scene is beautiful
Love 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.
We are America. We are all people from every land and religion. Free America. Paid for over and over. . .
i love this movie ...
Love this part in the movie!!! It is so powerful!!
What is it that they sing before Kol Nidre? The chorus is really impressive. When the Tanakh talks about Solomon acquiring male singers, that's what it meant.
So beautiful
I'd buy that single.
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.
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.

Most beautiful Kol Nidre. Neil Diamond has a great voice.
