Mayim Mayim マ​イ​ム​・​マ​イ​ム ft. Marty Friedman

about

For this special collaboration, Yossi hosts the legendary guitarist Marty Friedman (Ex-Megadeth), who lives in Japan for the last 15 years.
Over the years, Sassi and Friedman combined forces several times. Recorded songs in 2 albums, and toured together across Europe ("Guitar universe euro tour")

Why cover an Israeli folk song from the 50's for Japan?!
The original version is very familiar to both Israeli and Japanese since the 1950s, when the original version was imported to Japan.
In the 80's it was used as the theme song of a very popular educational animation show, and to this day it has been considered a hit and appears not only as a folk song but also as mentioned in films, a manga animation and folk-dance ceremonies at schools. It's funny that most Japanese are not even aware of the fact that the Hebrew song in the original, and most of them don't even believe it ..

The song was premiered on 17/9/18 at the very popular “JWAVE” Radio in Japan.
