Motherland in Hebrew: Yonatan Tal & Tzruya Lahav

“Twenty years ago, I was in the studio recording my third solo album, Motherland. The title song has been recorded by many musicians around the world since. I’d like to share one of my favorite versions with you by an Israeli singer named Yonatan Tal. He performs a hauntingly beautiful Hebrew version, “Eretz Or” | “Land of Light” with translation by acclaimed Jewish poet and novelist, Tzruya Lahav (who also appears in this video).”—Natalie
