Koolulam Salutes Bravery of Israel's Medical Crews Fighting Covid-19

Koolulam is the singing project that brings Israelis from all walks of life who hadn't met before to sing popular songs together.

Koolulam has been bringing people together for four years. It's a social-musical initiative aimed at strengthening the fabric of society.

The project centers around mass singing events in which large groups of non-professionals come together to form a single collaborative musical creation. Koolulam brings together people from all walks of life to do one thing: stop everything for a few hours and just sing – together. At b, the audience is the artist.

Every participant enters as a unique individual and comes out, while still unique, as a part of a larger whole.

For every Koolulam event, a different well-known song is chosen to be performed. The musical team works hard toward each event, putting together a fresh and innovative arrangement of the chosen song. They write new instrumental arrangements as well as an original three-part vocal arrangement.

On Israel’s 73rd Independence Day, Koolulam gathered around 300 of Israel’s medical crews to salute their bravery with facing Covid-19 and to sing the Shlomo Artzi song Tetaaru Lahem (Imagine Yourselves) together at the Torch-Lighting Ceremony on Mt. Herzl.

The English translation appears below.

ne yourselves a beautiful world
Less sad than it is
And we are walking there with the sun in our pockets
And above the rooftops, The stars
And the time goes by fearless
And I am going to meet her in heaven
 
Imagine yourselves some joy
Beacause it is so rare around here
A cool city in the dark and both of us under the blanket
She caresses me and says
Whatever you wanted will happen tomorrow
And she is full of reflactions of sadness and happiness
 
Imagine yourselves in a middle of a beautiful day
The sky is above you, The love is with you
Yes, That's the way it happened, suddenly she said
I can still remember her, like in a storm
Imagine yourselves me falling into her arms
 
Imagine yourselves a simple world, a room for a night, a house in the rain
Tree scents filled with strawberries, And both of us are drunk
"If we ever break up i'll die", she whispers nervously
Imagine yourselves another chance of suddenly returning to youth
