Katan Aleinu (קטן עלינו) is a charity single written and composed by Israeli singer Static (one half of pop duo Static & Ben El Tavori) and his producer Yarden 'Jordi' Peleg.[1] The song features 40 Israeli singers and was written and recorded in response to the 2019–2021 COVID-19 pandemic. Every share of the video was "matched" with donations to Israeli hospitals and medical staff.[2] The song was released on November 24, 2020.[3]

Background and writing

[edit]

Static and Jordi worked on the song for months and recording took place over three days.[4][5] The song's title literally translates as "this is small for us," a popular Israeli adage more accurately meaning "we got this."[2][6] The theme of the song is that Israel has gotten through other challenges and will likewise get through the pandemic.[7] As of February 2024, the official music video had more than 27 million views on YouTube.[8]

In December 2023, Static and singer Agam Buhbut, who both participated in the original version, released a new version of the song entitled "יחד תמיד," or "Always Together." The song was released in partnership with the Israel Defense Forces and features Buhbut, who is a band member in the Education and Youth Corps, and Static, who is a reservist, both in uniform.[9] The song was intended to support Israel during the 2023 Israel–Hamas war and features a rap breakdown highlighting work done by female soldiers.[10]

Participating artists

[edit]

Forty Israeli artists appeared on the track, including many who had competed on and/or won Eurovision Song Contests and reality singing shows The X Factor Israel and Kokhav Nolad.[11] All artists volunteered their time for the project.[2]
