This is the first collaboration of the two • "We experience upheavals in our cultural world like the private ... A map is born a work," Golan said
Idan Raichel and Eyal Golan's first collaboration: As we told you here today in the first publication, the two singers secretly recorded a song, called "From All the Stars in the Night", and with it the clip - shot in the heart of a desert.
"Sometimes I run out of words," Raichel confessed, "I wrote this song together with Avi Ohayon, a love song, about the ups and downs in this life. Maybe in any couple's common way. And at the end of the day, right at the end, the recognition and gratitude - we are both home .

"From the moment the lyrics were written," Raichel added, "without a lot of stanzas and hymns, and the melody was created - I thought Eyal (we never recorded or performed together and it became our first meeting) would know how to make the song just his own. In one song, unforgettable , Almost recorded as a sketch, and only light touches of piano - leaving Eyal completely exposed, emotionally and vocally - ended one of the most exciting recordings I have ever experienced.
"In the studio, when the piano is silenced - Eyal's singing is mesmerizing in the same way. Alone. And the piano only paints, atmosphere, night. Of all the stars. And listen to Eyal again. Quietly. "
Golan also spoke about the place from which the collaboration was born: "Recently, we have been living on an emotional roller coaster at both the national and personal level, experiencing upheavals in our cultural world, man of faith and art, as well as in our personal, private world.
For some of us, the burns of the period gave birth to new and hidden places.
"Then came Raichel," Golan continued. A kind of magic that can not be described in words. Together with the wonderful Avi Ohayon, they embraced me into a masterpiece that is all about cleanliness and quiet, which we so desperately need right now, right now. And I, whose songs are my bread, reduced my presence to this silence, hoping it would Balm for your soul.
"If we close our eyes and listen to the silence, we may find other voices within us that will allow us to breathe, be strong and move on with renewed strength."
End of the day

Songs I already forgot come back to me
in every word finds you
now take to the street
from all the stars in the night - yours always the closest
keeps us from above every day, every day
Everything, I wish we could just forget about everything
to sail with you far from here
I love you
and we always went through everything together
with you everything is always whole
even if the heart
is
broken
I still sing
I love you
And you were there by my side
always staying
even when the power ran out you did not leave
both of us this is a house
and you know everything even without words
one look, see me inside
both of us this is a house
