#17 October 7th Special, Yair Levi IDF Shayetet 13 (SEAL)
from The Doron Keidar Podcast · host Doron Keidar
In this special episode, I interviewed my good friend Yair Levi, a veteran of Israel's most elite and secretive Navel Commando unit Shayetet 13 (SEAL) as we commemorate a year since October 7th. Yair Levi is a Jewish Israeli singer, songwriter, and musical producer based in Tel Aviv, Israel. Yair, a Jewish Levite (descendants of the Tribe of Levi) who served as a Captain in the Israeli Navy SEALs for 8 years, creates a unique mixture of Jewish soul music with his faith and Biblical values. Through his songs, Yair is able to revive ancient music and bring it to today’s world. Yair’s Music and personal journey led him to various musical cooperations with Israel’s leading musicians. In the last two years, his journey has taken him across the borders of Israel. Yair’s connection to scriptures created one of his most powerful songs, ‘Refa Na’ (‘please heal her’, Numbers 12:13), which he wrote in 2020 to his ill grandmother. The song has reached millions of views on YouTube and was translated to a variety of languages (Chinese, German, Spanish and more). The success of ‘Refa Na’ made him one of the most surprising and diverse singers in the international faith music arena. One of the most interesting cover versions for ‘Refa Na’ was of the Lebanese Christian singer Carine Basilli, who asked Yair to sing the song with her in Arabic, as a prayer for peace in the Middle East. https://www.yairlevimusic.com/ instagram.com/yairlevimusic Spotify open.spotify.com/artist/4fQ4siC5ZqG5vInJSzdQ40 REFA NA FAMELY facebook.com/groups/RefaNaFamily Facebook facebook.com/yairleviofficial Apple Music music.apple.com/us/artist/yair-levi/1137809875 Bandcamp yairlevi.bandcamp.com I AM Israel sequel https://iamisraelfilm.com/pages/i-am-israel-movie-sequel Yair Levi & Shai Sol- REFA NA יאיר לוי ושי סול- רפא נא Healing prayer song https://youtu.be/xaDC9jp7jbk?si=gU0w5FziDlxjf3Hc God Of Israel - Sean Feucht, Carine Bassili, Yair Levi | قدوس إسرائيل | קדוש ישראל https://youtu.be/bEUxyLYA-Ck?si=R4ETG1kVc-ICRkGm Yair Levi - Halleluhu (Psalms 150) | יאיר לוי - הללוהו (תהילים ק"נ) | The Levite׳s song https://youtu.be/4kbKRhpQ5uk?si=Mjv-yoF0eY1RlTTw *** Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cryforzion #podcast #breakingnews #israel #specialforces #usforeignaid #usa #doronkeidar #thedoronkeidarpodcast #Israel #HamasISIS #israelatwar #BringThemHomeNOW #music #yairlevimusic #seal #navelcommando
