Shortly after the announcement of the new duet, Idan Raichel fans blew up his Facebook page with astonished reactions to the decision to perform a duet with Eyal Golan, due to his past
It's hard to be surprised and it was even quite predictable - the collaboration between Idan Raichel and Eyal Golan did not go smoothly with Raichel's fans.
Idan Raichel uploaded his and Golan's new song about which we first published this morning (Thursday) on "Israel Today" a little while ago on his Facebook page.
The song received about 150 shares and about 500 responses in a short time - and most of them were not positive, to say the least.
Needless to say, most of the reactions also do not relate to the quality of the duet itself, but to Golan, who continues to chase after him.
"There is something jarring about choosing a musical collaboration with Eyal Golan, you do not have to prove anything and you do not lack publicity, so you really can not understand how a respected artist like you who symbolizes everything good in the country and in general, chooses to collaborate with a person who symbolizes the exact opposite. Very disappointing and incomprehensible, "wrote one of the surfers, a response that expresses most of the surprised reactions that have accumulated on the social network.

"Era, a disappointing decision," wrote another.
"A man so valuable, who preaches and promotes valuable and very important messages in his songs - can not turn his back on the reality created by Golan and his gang and share as an action. Disappointing. Too bad." It was also written: "Wow, I did not expect a value person like you and a father of two daughters to cooperate with such a person. Terribly disappointing. "
More notable comments: "We understand that you turned to working with the founder of the Potmobile - the one quoted treats his minor fans as sex dolls to satisfy his and his associates' passions. Thank you for revealing your truth to us. It seems time for anyone who appreciates you to look for other artists to listen to. "Their moral and value values are a thousand times greater than yours."
"Basa you have chosen to collaborate with a person who is 180 degrees different from you in terms of values. Hopefully there will be more successful collaborations in the future."
"What? Idan Raichel, if a flame fell on the cedars, what will the mosses of the wall that cooperate with this person say? With all the sorrow, I hope you will shelve the cooperation."
Among the very angry and disappointed reactions were also some more positive ones.
"What fun that you are such a simple man, not a politician, not a judge, and not a hangman. Just a singer who wants to do good," a fan wrote.
"As part of this beautiful feature you can collaborate even with a person you are not sure you appreciate the most. And you see in the clip that there is no click between you. That's what's beautiful about you. That's why everyone loves you."
It was also written in amazement: "The angular reactions! What is he marrying Eyal? What is it with him? Strange people ... All in all, they made art together!
Music is music and no one likes one song or another just because of who sang it ... but because his melody is pleasant to his ears. "
"Wow, how much I love Idan Raichel! I love the modesty, the talent and most importantly the ability to create music with a person without judging him like all the beauties of the soul do here."
On Golan's behalf, it was stated: "Music speaks for itself."
