G-d, I don't even know what to say to that.
If you're Jewish, you know who she is. If you're not Jewish, or you if are and you don't know who she is... you should find out.
She was a powerful voice and possibly the most sung composer in modern Judaism. She composed many of the "traditional" melodies that we sing at Friday night services along with some of the most beautiful folk songs I've ever heard.
My entire childhood and adult Jewish life are entwined with her music... and the thought that she will never produce another song, the thought that her life was cut so tragically short... I have no words.
Go. Listen. Download. Amazon link. You won't regret it.
