this guy should be an actor and singer as well!

Can’t wait to see if you win – the judges got to be out to lunch not to choose you
that’s all i can say. i hope he goes big league
its not just about singing its about the whole package and leehr has that!! some of the other contestants may have good voices but they dont have this guys personality which the jewish community needs!!!! i never heard of this concert and if lehr goes im going!!!

Original performance.
can be found on the nichoach albums ( niggunei chassidei chabad)
what are the lyrics for this song?
the last part is a little bit interesting and the bigging about avraham friend
YOU HAVE A REALLY NICE VOICE!!! YOU CAN MAKE IT BIG!!!!
Marvelous! Really a pleasure to listen to. I would buy his CD in a heartbeat. If he can make such a hard and difficult song to sound exciting. I can only imagine if it was a faster more upbeat song. Loved every moment that I was listening to it. My wife and children were watching with me as well. We were all captivated by it. Hatzlacha Rabba!

IS THIS JEWISH STAR COMPETITION OR CHABAD SINGING COMPETITION???
GOOD SHABES?
GOOO UNCLE MOISHIE U ROCK! I LUV UUUUU
LOVE CHAYA 🙂
THE GUY IS A ACTOR—– HE CAN BE ON BROADWAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“dont mean to criticize” oh but you did, and you are the only one out of 72 comments, are you a contestant, or just jealous?.
He was great, and I like the fact that he did not use any fancy recording tricks like some others did, I like to hear the real voice
not only can he sing, he can dance and he is an unbelievable comedian. he was made for the stage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!does anyone remember him from exodus( ramses and the nutty professor)?
I always knew that you were a very talented guy, Moshe, just never knew that it extended to the vocal chords…good luck in the competition. You did a super job!
A fan from way back……
The truth is guys, i taught both of you everything you know.. it took some time.. but ultimately- you succeeded. and so i guess that kinda means that i also taught Moshe…
!!!!
Rock on Moishe!! we love you!!!
love Tzippy, Leah, and Baby Benny 🙂
this guy is great, who in charge of scouting people, there are so many people that have talent and passion for nigunim, can we get levi okunov on this, he has a great chush for negina
He is amazing. You can hear the raw talent without the recoding studio and sound effects. The other guys used the sound effects and video effect over shodow their voice.
Where are the rules? I don’t see that written anywhere on the website…
Hey family, no Need to hide yourself I see you. Mendy a.k.a the tall talented one, hey Eli, and woah Steve never doubted your hurricane chasing videography skills the video was great and to my hubby Yissi yes you are my biggest fan but no….I taught Moshe and his father everything they know an it wasn’t easy but hey it can be done. To everyone else…..there might be people with other voices like Benny Friedman and shwekey etc. But no one can top the showmanship, stage presence, humor, confidence etc. Of my brother Moshe, he was made for this stuff.… Read more »
To #58 I am no Judge but if what you say is true then Now is a good time for him to start. Get a trainer and Practis for the real night
B/c so far he is the best (With No fake Computerized music / voice) but I’m sure they are gettting more people.
Hey COL go get Zalmy to sing. He would put some real singers to shame. But he won’t so don’t even ask for his last name.
Hey Zalmy Don’t worry I won’t blow your cover 😉
He’s a funny man
A complex, magnificent delivery of a difficult nigun. Clearly a major talent!
Totally refreshing and vibrant!! Extremely entertaining … Hope to see this face again- on the big stage
He can become a singer if he wants
Of course he’s not trained. The rules for this competition is that you can’t be a professional or ever have done this for money. This is about discovering and developing talent.
you rule!
the end was real cool
this singer is warm, talented, good voice and cool
fantastic job
and collive now has a new sweet and cool niggun
omg! like woah!
lilly
heehee
but Moshe’s voice is obviously not trained at all, he sounds tight from top to bottom, he’s very throaty and sounds like he subconsciously trying to mimick the sound he hear’s coming out of the singers he likes instead of using his own voice.
but hay, he’s got spirit and humer, so you never know…
I LIKE!!!!
great voice! nicest guy in aspaclaria judaica hatzlocoh!
omg…the end was the best part!! youbetter win!!!!!!
but still the best so far…a little shaky on the v’attah tishma….
GREAT JOB MOSHE!

aside from all the blabber,
this is what an audition should look like!
now we can asses him for his raw talent:
good voice
great vocal control
plus his vulnerability showed us something amazing: his awesome personality!
his voice & humor are a powerful combo & it’s gonna take him far!
though i don’t think filters & audio effects should be used, for future contestants:
it couldn’t hurt to plug in a nice mic into the camcorders accessory shoe so we can hear your voice more clearly
MBD, Avremel, and Mendy Pelling, u now have competition, collive keep it coming, we see serious talents popping up!
you’ve got my vote! way to go Moshe! we all enjoyed it!
this guy beats any of the other auditions by far!

It’s not just the voice! This guy’s got personality!!!
Moshe so funny…..didnt know this was going on….go bro!!! I’m so proud….I would do it but I’m a girl so I can’t…..
this is the first guy with a normal voice hes totally going to win!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck Moishe!
By far the best voice and entertainment value!!

Nice to see you Moshe. This is definitely the best audition I’ve seen. You’re going to win! Hatzlocho!
