Groups like the Maccabeats...You make a valid point. Groups like the Maccabeats, however are not advocating not listening to secular music. Heck, they pick meaning secular songs and cover them on their albums.<br /><br />You may be referring to a specific organization (I won't say which). And as much as that may be true, I don't know if they're really pushing that point in the videos per se.<br /><br />There are some fantastic Jewish rock bands out there.<br /><br />Judablue: http://www.walkingthegreyline.blogspot.com/2011/11/jewish-music-fridays-judablue.html<br /><br />plus another song here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPuzDnHUXgk<br /><br />Eden: http://www.walkingthegreyline.blogspot.com/2011/11/jewish-music-fridays-eden.html<br /><br />and Except Saturday: http://www.walkingthegreyline.blogspot.com/2011/11/jewish-music-fridays-except-saturday.html<br /><br />are great examples of this.<br /><br />These guys, and others, definitely deserve more exposure.
