Well, to them it's Chinese Laughing

The first song is Yiddish - Aufen Pripetchik and the second one is Yerushalayim Shel Zahav in honor of Israe's Dependence Day?

And to be dan lekaf zchus, I would say that their modest clothes is because of their respect for the Jews.

Methinks, in Asia they are a lot more tzniius than in the US. My podiatrist is South Korean and she said when she goes back to her home country she cant even wear short sleeves!

Oy the freaks and geeks that join the school choir – now they can be ridiculed for the unusual word sin their songs! Well, I certainly appreciate different cultures taught to our kids, I think It’s a beautiful thing. Well, backtracking now – I was moved, it was a beautiful performance. They certainly meshed the two songs beautifully together and the vocals were phenomenal. I wish I can be in their group!

I think it is very cute. Out of the normal, but very cute and a little funny, too. And I love the fact that they are dressed in a very tzanua way.

Ah and the title says they are singing songs from Shindler's list, so not for yom haatzmaut.

I think on Youtube it said that it's from 2007.
And I think that the last melody played may have been the theme from Schindler's List.
