Terrible version (Canned Heat or George Thorogood versions are much better) but wish you success. The heirs of Wilbert Harrison could probably do with some cash.

And someone like the TUC will be making sure that the songwriter’s heirs get their royalties, won’t they?

@[1] The relevant royalties will be paid to the songwriter (or his heirs and/or other rightsholders) automatically via the PRS/MCPS system. For further details of the way this works check out http://www.prsformusic.com.

Not sure why you think the TUC or anyone else should be involved?

Quote:

The Halacha forbids Jewish males to listen to women singing whether in a choir or solo regardless of what is sung. This is stated directly in the halachic ruling that a voice of a woman is adultery. This is interpreted by later halachic rulings stipulating that the word “voice” here means a woman’s singing not speaking. This rule, originating in the Talmud, occurs in all codes of law. A Jewish male who willingly listens to a woman’s singing commits a sin equivalent either to adultery or fornication

@3 – And you posted something about the extremist Haredim because? Oh, right, anti-Semitism. Silly question.

Leon, you travesty of anything liberal, shouldn’t you be attacking this sort of farcical religious bigotry…not attacking those that simply point this farcical religious bigotry out?!!!

No, of course not! Another thing you share with Many Muslims/Islam, ironically.

@5 – What, I share tolerance and civilized values? Yup.
You share intolerance and barbarism with your soul-mates, Islamists, of course.

But thanks for making it plain you’re an anti-Semite as well. Your lies on the topic were nonsense, as I always said.

I was just trying to save the chosen from inadvertently sinning by listening to women singing.

According to reports in the Israeli press, it seems that women are the unintended source of contamination for all sorts of evil properties:

I can only marvel at how King Solomon managed to keep going with hundreds of wives and concubines.

The only rational explanation is that the orthodox believe they would be unable to restrain themselves on hearing women singing or being sat next to one on a bus. Perish such indecent thoughts.

Perhaps the more worrying international aspect is that there is little prospect of progress in the Palestine peace negotiations when they are an essential part of Netanyahu’s coalition government, especially when there are women – like Hanan Ashrawi – in the Palestine negotiating team. No wonder Israel took such offence when Orla Guerin used to report for the BBC on Palestine issues.
