Music has the power to capture the energy of its time. In this video I've chosen 11 songs that tell the history of Israel from the Yishuv to the Israeli version of 'American Idol'.

I have added subtitles to the video. If you can’t see them, click the CC button in the bottom right-hand corner (or top right-hand corner) of the video.

The songs I talk about in the video:
Malu Asameinu Bar (Our Barns Are Full Of Grain) - performed by Gevatron
Hareut (The Friendship) - performed by Shoshana Damari
